    when you mod pens do you ever think "is it right that i am taking apart pens to make another?"
    and usually it is a mod that you cant write with.
    i personally think its OK but what about you?

    as i said earlier to kyosuke, i said to him when he was sitting next to me at breakfast. i told him. "you gonna tear off the grip to make another pen?"
    "yeah"
    "but, i love this pen"
    "i'll buy it off of you"
    "how much?"
    "money."
    "ok!"

    I think its ok, only if you make the pen to wpin and write. If you are making one without a ink cartrige to write with then i dont favor it

    I agree with Hira.

    Pen + no ink = STICK

    It ain't a pen if it can't write

    This thread isn't about the "what counts as a pen?" discussion though.

    Sure, whatever. Is it ok to throw away food? Yeah, I've never understood people who force eat leftovers just cause they don't want to throw it away. Is it ok to buy pens, just to take them apart and use the parts to make spinning-pens? Yeah, I don't see why there would be any problem.

    No, pen modding is wrong. As you tear them apart bit by bit, can't you hear them screaming in agony?

    GAHHH! IT'S MY GRIP!

    OH MY GOD! MY INK TUBE! MY GOD DAMN INK TUBE FELL OUT!

    lol imagine if pens started taking humans apart... "Hmmm I'll buy the leg..." "how much" "$5" "DEAL!" *reving of chainsaw, screaming, blood squirt * only to make a better human groucho.gif "hmmm... I want the hair" pullhair.gif

    But seriously now. I don't like the idea of pens which you can't write with. The ones that look like batons *cough*PDS metallic comssa*cough* are really good for spinnning and all but it moves away from one of the key word SPINNING. We may as well call it baton spinning >.>. But I think people mainly like pens like RSVPMX because they LOOK LIKE PENS and can write.

    ^i believe the keyword is PEN. But yeah of course its alright. Why wouldn't it be.

    I think it's fine to learn with batons, but tournaments should be restricted to pens that can write And no non-pen parts either.
