Two new features !

CREDIT EXCHANGE

So the credit exchange is now in effect. For those who do not know what it is, credits, which are gained from voting on a battle, can now be exchanged for certain things which will be listed below. Keep in mind that, because this is still a fresh feature, it is under a trial period. The full version of this feature is still being developed, so you'll be notified regarding updates to this feature. Below is a list of things you can now purchase with credits(list subject to change):

1. Exclusive Membership - *150/month, *500/year

3. Starting crews - *100
4. Custom reppin - *200
5. Custom titles - *400

HIDDEN COMMENTS ON BATTLES

Most of you have probably already noticed, but if you go to check out a battle, you'll see this message: "You must vote on this battle first, before you can view other users' comments." Once you vote and the page refreshes, you'll be able to see all the comments and votes on the battle(except moderator votes). This feature will help promote to fair votes and explanations on battles, as well as greatly reduce sway, so voters will vote with absolutely no influence from prior voters/comments. Unfortunetely this hasnt been implemented in tournaments yet, and there is a bug where you wont be able to see the votes/comments on your own battles, but this is being looked after as we speak. If you notice any bugs, please let a moderator know. Enjoy!
