    Arghh this forum is so inactive. So, I decided to make this topic as an attempt to get some activity here. This sould be something like the Pen Spinning Journal thread, except within the team ^^


    So....i made 2 new mods today, exactly the same except for the barrel color. an rsvp grip + 2 HGG tips in a G3 cap, RZDZ body, G2 grip and G3 tip in front
    they spin so nice ^^ and i plan film some cool 2p2h clips when i get better with my left hand spinning

    speaking of left handed spinning, i finally got these trick down with my left hand biggrin.gif

    haha i really wanted to make this topic a long time ago seeing that the last post before this was about 2 wks ago :/ i think that if this team was centered around something rather than just location i think the forum would be more active...btw do u have a pic of those mods? i cant really visualize things that well if u described it...
    and congratz on mastering those tricks with your other hand! biggrin.gif hopefully it wasnt that difficult because i no that when i tried to start spinning with my left hand (im right handed) it took me around 1 wk to get the fundamentals down tho i still have a really bad fingerpass....maybe once you learn more tricks you can try my combo 1 on ur left hand...

    was this forum ever active? i mean ive been on ecs for longer than i have on my other team (raw ecstasy) and ive seen more activity in 24 hours on that forum than on the total time ive been on this forum...its pathetic...

    Date: Sun, Jun 14 2009 20:32:06

    well.. you weren't here in the earlier days so you can't really say much about saying ecs is just pathetic... -.-

    well pathetic is an opinion...its just whatever ive seen in my time as an ecs member was pretty pathetic...unless u guys want to change my opinion by proving me wrong and being active...

    Date: Sun, Jun 14 2009 23:35:45

    why would we prove ourselves to the likes of you? if we're inactive we're inactive for a reason. you people annoy me so much because you judge other people so fast. it's like.. mindblowing facepalm.gif

    Date: Sun, Jun 14 2009 23:50:34

    well considering that the forum wasnt active for like 2 wks...i think that i can make form an opinion base off of that...and its not my fault that the leader of this forum didn't accept me earlier so that i could see the things that i havent seen yet....

    thats still judging without good reason/looking through others perspective either way facepalm.gif

    Date: Mon, Jun 15 2009 00:43:04

    well understand that i understand that people do have reasons not to be on the forum / board a lot...such as me when finals rolled around i studied and didnt really get on as much...but its been 2 wks...so there should be at least SOME people that are still posting stuff...but in that 2 wks? i did consider reasons...i just think its that people just dont really care to be on the team and rnt as committed....

  15. meiDay
    Date: Mon, Jun 15 2009 01:06:25

    well you wouldn't know that unless you stepped in their shoes... stop taking it through your own perspective. it's not like our lives are dedicated to pen spinning... it's for fun but we have our priorities first.

    that would be one reason and the other is that there is absolutely nothing that we can exactly do... we can organize ecs 2nd but i sure can't because i won't have that time.. this team is for anyone, it's just meant to help all the east coast psers get together. thats this teams purpose. if you want to get stuff started then you can start off here where there's some foundation laid for you already. thats the purpose of this team. you can't expect the team leaders to organize everything for you guys...

    Date: Mon, Jun 15 2009 01:56:56

    im not saying that everyone on this board HAS to post like every single second in every single topic or even dedicate their lives to pen spinning... i prioritize school before anything but i still post sometimes even if im loaded down mainly because i dont sign up for things that i most likely cant keep commitment to...and believe me if i had the knowledge of how to set up events for ecs then i would but i dont have that knowledge...and also i personally believe that "it's [ecs] just meant to help all the east coast psers get together" is the same exact reason as to why the forum isnt active...its just based on location and its just something we have in common...its not a belief or something because thats different...

    Date: Mon, Jun 15 2009 02:18:24

    well that means you just don't know the history of ecs just as the present state of the leaders and everyone else on the team. if it's commitment you want you won't find it with pen spinning.. even as team leaders it's not easy giving your all for others who aren't willing to do the same. no offense but thats just how things went, attempts at organizing stuff failed. everything kept failing. what to do? .. we could keep trying but just give us some time, we have lives too..

    the history of ECS? me and Nolan created the team. pretty much it was for ppl around pennsylvania and new york areas to hang out. but then tons of other ppl come out of nowhere.. we didn't really think too far about the other east coast members. sadly enough we never bothered having a mission statement for the team thus our team being inactive as it is. but what can we do as a east coast team? there's a lot of potential no? we just need some ppl who are willing to step up and just kick off something.
    for those who will be taking a step forward for the team, good luck! i'll give my support 100% but give me some inspiration smile.gif i'll help out with all that i can.

    OK

    ECS = East Coast Spinners

    The MAIN purpose of this team is just to identify the people in UPSB who live in the East Coast of the US/Canada. Besides that, there really isn't any other purpose for this team. Based on JUST the name and description of this team, the only threads that would be necessary are threads that are gathering/meeting related and a team collab thread. Being on the ECS team doesn't show your skill or appreciation of pen spinning like other teams such as Raw Ecstacy or Demon Origins. Being on this team just shows that you live on the East Coast, nothing else. Threads such as these are created because the members WANT to create them. We WANT this team to be active, but we don't have to. If this team becomes dead for a whole year, that shouldn't really be a problem, because there should have been nothing alive in the first place.

    yeah i always understood that this team wouldnt be as active as some other teams because its location-based... and like loanshark said...

    being part of raw ecstasy myself... i do appreciate pen spinning A LOT...that may clash with some of the people on this team and thats probably why i find this one slightly boring...no offense to all my fellow east coastians...

    if your really fighting about this team being inactive as compared to other teams, then leave. im on 3 other teams and theyve pretty much become a joke.

    no just merely expressed rudely and offensively.

  23. KTrinh93
    Date: Mon, Jun 15 2009 22:31:34

    how is it rude by just saying its pathetic that ive seen more activity elsewhere? its my opinion let it be...no need to be all defensive because we have different views....

  24. meiDay
    Date: Mon, Jun 15 2009 22:34:04

    ok lets say this

    i went to your house one day. then i pointed out at your house and said ew it's so messy and smelly.... get what i mean? -.-

  25. KTrinh93
    Date: Mon, Jun 15 2009 23:41:52

    well thats ok cuz thats ur opinion and it shouldnt bother me...its just different from whatever your used to...

    wow instant facepalm.gif we're talking about rude here.... facepalm.gif not opinion

    if u guys really find it that offensive that i say this team is pathetic compared to another team that actually appreciates pen spinning...whats wrong with that? maybe i just wish that ecs actually showed its appreciation...its good that u guys are defending ecs...u just dont have to get all worked up over a word...

    Date: Tue, Jun 16 2009 02:43:41

    f*ck off dude. now you're dissing the team. wow. we don't appreciate pen spinning huh? we show our appreciation, probably not as a united team but wtf if we don't appreciate pen spinning why are we all here? facepalm.gif

  31. KTrinh93
    Date: Tue, Jun 16 2009 04:14:41

    get all worked up over nothing why dont ya...while ur over wherever u are getting all angry im as tranquil as can be knowing that its just my perspective...which isnt as right or as wrong as ur very own...

  32. meiDay
    Date: Tue, Jun 16 2009 16:16:14

    well you have nothing to say now do you? if your perspective is gonna diss the team then gtfo. i'm serious. we don't need people like you on our team. leave. now.

  33. KTrinh93
    Date: Tue, Jun 16 2009 16:27:45

    gtfo? and u cant tell me to leave...im still part of the east coast and im still a pen spinner...therefore i have the right to be on ecs...seeing is that i qualify...

  34. meiDay
    Date: Tue, Jun 16 2009 16:29:44

    i don't care. oh i'm so cool, i'll just get on the team and diss them for being inactive, do you honestly think we'll keep idiots like you on the team? we have our standards too facepalm.gif

  35. meiDay
    Date: Tue, Jun 16 2009 16:39:24

    and wow let me just say this

    you say oh this team's activity is pathetic
    i say no, you don't know the real situation here
    then you continue on with the rude comments
    then i mention ew rude comments
    then you start dissing the team


    wtf is wrong with you? you're just screwing up your own image here rolleyes.gif and you're being so damn selfish with your 'perspective' look through others perspectives first tongue.gif

    mhmm im not the leader of a team swearing off at someone that just wants some activity...and its not really a diss to the team if its true that there is very little activity...

  37. meiDay
    Date: Tue, Jun 16 2009 16:56:29

    wow i'm not team leader idiot, if i was i would've banned you from the team anyway. and if you want real swearing i'll get you some. and it is a diss dude. what do you know about being polite? you just had to say it so bluntly, oh this team is pathetic. like come on.. even i have better manners than that. you gotta think before you post because if you want to be accepted as part of the team dissing it won't get you anywhere towards movement.

  38. KTrinh93
    Date: Tue, Jun 16 2009 17:09:56

    its just someone walking up to pointing and laughing saying "haha ecs stands for east coast spinners! tongue.gif" and ud be like...."yeah...? and...?" because its fact....unless of course ur idea of "inactive" and "pathetic" are waaaaaaaay different then mine...if u take those words more offensive then i intended them to, im sorry.
