How do I start a battle?(text)
To make a battle call out: To do this you go into the Front Lines
forum and then into the subforum " Bitch Slapped". This is where
are callouts for battles are to be made. Post a thread calling
someone out and post any rules you may want for the battle.
To set up a battle: Once someone has accepted, go back into
the frontlines and click on the button that says start new thread.
Once the page loads there will be two slots at the top. Enter your
opponents name in the first slot and your name in the second one.
Then in the box where you would normally type your reply, type in
the line limit, due date, and any other rules you want for the battle.
Then scroll down to the bottom of the page. There will be a box
that say's " Do you want to record this battle". Click on the box
that says " yes, i want to slaughter this wanna be emcee". Once
you've donethat, click on the button that says" create poll or make
poll". It will then bring up another page. Whenm it comes up, it will
ask you to enter your opponents name in the first box. Do so, but
make sure you spell his/her name exactly how it's spelled or the
win/ loss may not go on his or her record. Once you've done that,
click on the button that says create thread. Your thread will then
be created.
Why aren't my posts going up?
Posts don't count in all forums. Ex: Emcee Interaction and Crews/hook ups. So if they haven't gone up, its because you've been posting in a forum where they don't count.
How do you get a custom avatar/member title?
You must acquire 500 posts and be a registered user. Once you have obtained these 500 posts, to change your user title go to your user cp, then Profile Options, then you will see a empty box that you can type your wanted user title in. To change your avy to go user cp, then change avy, then scroll down to the bottom and browse your pc, once you find the picture you want, click on it, then click finished.
Can I Change My Name?
Once you get 2,000 posts and have been here for a year, the option will apear in your user cp above change signature. You can also access it using this link.

How Do I Hide My Battle Stats?
To turn them on or off Go to user cp, then profile & scroll down to the bottom of the page, then you can choose. When you turn your battle stats off, you can still see them, but the members of rb cannot.
How do I change the thread name?
If you can edit the first post, change the name where it says title.
How Do I Make Font Glow In My Sig?
Put this code in your sig and take out the *'s:
Where it says (color=YOUR COLOR) Place what color you want it to glow where "YOUR COLOR" is now
Sound Click
1 set up account
2 add a band
3 go to band administration
4 go to "add song"
5 congratulations we shall hear your cuts
Why Did My Posts Go Down?
Your posts have gone down most likely because threads you have posted in have been deleted. Also some forums do not increase your post count, Ex: Crew forums. Lastly, you can lose hundreds of your posts due to freeposting excessively. If an admin grows tired of your constant flow of freeposts, he may lower your post count as a punishment.
How Do I Place A Link In My Sig?
the code for making a link is:
[url*]www.rapbattles.com/forum[/url*]
remove the stars and that would make www.rapbattles.com/forum
now if you want to name a link, then use the code:
[*url=www.rapbattles.com/forum]YOUR TEXT HERE[/url*]
remove the stars and that could make Your Text Here
Well, what is a freepost?
A freepost is a post off-topic to the original thread. It is a post that isn't worth reading by anyone. Such as responding to a thread with 'lol' or 'cool' and only post other one word response. Save yourself being punished and banned in the future by giving meaningful and real responses to everything on this site.
What is a refferal?
Refferals show how many people you brought to the site. When a person registers, they have the option of placing some ones name in the box that says Refferer. If they place your name, you will get 1 refferal added to your profile info.
Is it permitted to have several user names?
Yes. You are aloud to have alias’s.
How Do I Change My Name?
Name changes are no longer done by administrators. Once
you have 2000 posts and have been a member for a year,
a feature where you can change it yourself will appear in
your user cp.
Cant start a battle?
Most likely this is because you have ran out of credits. You start out with 30 credits and you need 3 credits to start a battle. Every time you vote on a battle you get 1 credit.
People Not Voting On Your Battle?
Try voting on other battles and leaving your link at the bottom of your post, make sure you leave a good detailed vote so it does not get disqualified.
People Not Responding To Your Open Mic?
Try responding to theirs and leaving your link at the bottom of your post. Make sure when you respond it’s a good explanation, if you don’t give a good one they will be less willing to give your piece one.
What is a hardcore battle?
A Hardcore battle means you can have anyone you want write with you. So a hardcore match could be me vs you, but I could also have 10 other people write verses for me also, and post them up.
How Do I Start A Topic?
There is a button at either the top or bottom of the page you want to start the topic on. That button will say "New Topic" Click that
My Vote Got Deleted, Why?
Rb has had trouble with 1 line votes in the past, now there is a rule that has been made. If your vote is to short, or not detailed enough, it will be deleted. You may go back and vote and then pm and admin or a battle mod to poll the vote. Make sure when you are voting, you leave a detailed vote with and explain indepth why you think that person won.
How Do I Set Up A 2 vs 2 battle?
You can either battle with out a poll, or you can agree on 1 person from each sides name to go on the poll.
How Do I Add A Quote?
Take out the *'s
[*quote=Their Name]WHAT THEY SAID[/quote*]
My Inbox Is Empty But I Cant Get Privite Messeges Cuz It Says I Have To Many
Make sure you have deleted all the messeges in your outbox also, not just the ones u send
How do i post an attachment?
When you are posting in the quick reply box, click the go advanced option next to the post button, then scroll down when the new page comes up and there will be a option to post attachments, click that, then you can browse for the picture you want to upload, when you find it, click the picture and it will upload, then when its finished, close off the box and when you post the picture will show up.
What is a bar?
A bar is 2 lines in text, so when the person says drop 6 bars in our battle, they really mean 12 lines.
What Different Colors of Glow Can I Have?
Any color you can change your font to, you can make your glow that color. So just bring up the advance posting options, and scroll threw the colors you can change your font to, and pick one you like.
How does a battle close?
All battles will close automatically once the poll reaches 5 votes for 1 of the people on it.[/b]
Want a sig?
