Here's a big "to do or not to do". I think alot of us toys get so anxious to get up, we get a half assed feel of a style and go bomb the hell out of everything and it's a mess. In one respect, that's a way to learn. In another, I think we're setting things back for the true writers out there. For instance, I went out and bombed a frieght a week back. First time. Had to bust my cherry. I had some descent sketches, but when I got out there, I realised a pencil and a can are two seperate tools. I had no can control and I made a drippy mess. Now it's off to who the hell knows and at every intersection that's blocked off for a railroad crossing, people are gonna sit in there cars and see that throw up and say "that's ugly. I hate graffiti." Yeah so fuck 'em. But then maybe the railroad operators will see it and say the same thing and start cracking down or paint over my piece and three other incredible burners along with it. I think we should probably stick to our black books until we're confident and when we are, come back here and look at some of the kings' work. If we're still confident, find a place out of eyesight and learn how to use a can. Then get your glory. For now, if I have to get up, I'm sticking with stencil.

props...^

i agreee..

for me..i just gotta find a word and practice! but damn i wish i could do dope shit like some of these peeps on here.

here's a tip: don't write 'style' as a tagline unless you got style... I'll post a pic of what i mean tomorrow.

As for do's and do not's, i kind of half agree with this thread... there are several things people just shouldnt do... and then there are things they shuoldnt do but do anyways and they learn at the same time... so whatever, if you want to use this thread to get good then bravo, otherwise, all yous guys who are gonna come here and say "Fuck you dont tell me what to do", well, fuck you right back.

one more thing... dont start dumb-assed threads or stupid toy battles in ANY of the BS forums.

**hightension** · 10-21-2005 03:21 PM

yes, often it does

**faint rem one** · 10-22-2005 10:29 AM

u made some good points..
but for me, there shouldent be rules in graff...
u know...no one should tell u dont do this, do that...
graff is good coz no1 tells u wat to do and ur style should be the fruit of u developing ur shit..
all da points u made, are tru, but i rekon u should let writer find out for themselves...or else if evryone does dis, we would not haveÂ* original styles...

also, when people tell u that ur toy, ignore them and dont even try to cuss them out because then theyre going to punk around even more since they know what gets u mad. trust me its happenned to me forever and people still say that but theyre just jealous cause im badass and they suck. just a few words of encouragment from The Kure.

AGREED.

Dont tag on the back of the rail police's building..or on stationary boxcars in the yard(You know boxcars that dont move....ever) A lot of yards use them to find out where you paint(some writers can help hitting a boxcar without even having to go into the yard)

this is a dumb question but is it alright to bomb a ukranian community centre or would that be like bombing a church or a house

Only if they won't precieve it as gang markings, try to make it art in the conventional sence.

only thing I notice is everyone is so anxious to get up and make a name... that's not what it's about, that's a biproduct of paying dues. There are tons of writers out there who are just tits, but you don't see them everywhere... personally, I prefer quality over quantity... you don't need your name on every bathroom stall in a bus station, or every street sign in a one block radius... spread out... find a place noone will see to get your can control up... and leave the arrows at home unless they are an underscore on your tag...

The wild style thing made me laugh... I've never had a desire to write wild... lol
