    What is Eurapen and why is it closed?

    Eurapen was a board for European spinners that closed due to porn-bots.


    @ HD-- I think a good (but difficult and long) project would be finding all recorded instances of pen spinning appearing on TV in the various countries.

    There is a thread about all pen spinning on television already here. We don't need to make a duplicate.

    Updated first post a bit.

    History committee is mostly doing recruitment now, after which we are doing a project on the history of all the major pen spinning communities. Expect articles on the histories of all the major boards over the next few months.

    True, there is already a topic about it in the public, but there're alot of projects like that in the RD, and they end up getting done much more thoroughly ... i just think the HD could do a much better job at it, it IS what its there for no?

    I don't think we could do a better job. People from other boards tend to put up televised appearances in media section, that end up in that thread as soon as they have gone up on the net. With pen spinning going more and more on television, I don't see why we need to have an article about each time it happens.

    then i dont quite understand the point of the HD ... by your logic just start the thread out in the open and the public could do just as good a job as any department could...

    EDIT: and i'm not saying an article about every TV appearance, im saying a list of every TV appearance

    well the department's only job is find history, not true if you leave it to the public, we could say the same thing for RD.

    and in any case the History Commitee already existed in UPSBv2 and it worked well, so no reason to let it go.

    yea you could using his logic lol, but i honestly think the RD does much better jobs on all the projects they do than the public would if we just made a thread in general discussion...

    nothing against the public, its just that no one takes stuff seriously, and it'd become either a giant arguement or a joke ... people take stuff serious in the RD

    Japanese Penspinning History(short and easy)


    Penspinning existed before WW2 in Japan.
    We can read articles from Hideaki Kondoh's website.

    1975~

    Penspinning is popular in Japan.
    Maybe it relate to mechanical pencil.
    Mechanical pencil is good to spin.
    And it has been popular since about 1975.
    They enjoyed penspinning in school.


    1989

    Hiromichi Hosoma who was a graduate student of Kyoto University, presented a study of penspinning in Japanese Ethological Society.
    Many press put an article about this.
    We can read that.
    Their spinning tricks maybe.. normal, reverse , harmonic,etc.
    We cant know exactly what it is.
    Because Hiromichi Hosoma didnt presented trick itself.

    Many press noticed and wrote "Penspinning trick ends a particulary form."
    That form is writing form.
    That form can write soon from ending form.This is like normal,sonic. Not like backaround fall.

    Penspinning is called ペン回し(pen mawashi ) now.
    But in that article,penspinning is called ペン回し or 浪人回し.
    浪人回し(rounin mawashi) includes a negative meaning.
    Because Rounin means a person who fell in entrance exam of university and has to study 1 more years.

    People in Japan think penspinning is bad thing.Because its addicts dont pay attention to their teacher.
    And penspinning is hated because of its noise.(When we fall pens,a noise occurs.)

    1997

    Hideaki Kondoh held a first website about penspinning.
    Website name is "My history of Penspinning".
    Many penspinner came this website , learned many skills and discovered new tricks.
    They gathered his board.So,Hideaki had a great authority to penspinning society in Japan.

    2004

    Penspinning society in Japan was not hot.
    Many old spinners retired.
    They felt a limit for penspinning.
    They thought "We discovered every tricks.And we cant do more high level tricks."

    2005

    Many penspinner saw a cv.PDS 1st.
    That fascinated many young(not age itself,as a penspinner) Japanese spinners.
    And freestyle began to be popular in Japan.

    Generally speaking,Japanese started exchange with foreign penspinning society about this time.
    They started to using modified pens and making freestyles.

    Most of all spinners gathered a anonymous board "2ch".
    Because of its characteristic, this board is always vulgar and aggressive.
    It had a great power to centralize.
    Every famous spinner cant ignore this board.
    Maybe they also post to this board.
    You cant understand why spinners gathered this board.
    But,this board has good points , also.
    It supplies frank opinions.
    And because it is very centralized,we can know many information from this board.Its so useful.
    In fact,2ch much contirbuted to penspinning.

    You may say "By the way,what is JEB?"
    Yes,JEB is created under 2ch.
    Administrator of JEB is okkar.
    But actually,substantial meaning,administrator was 2ch people.
    Sometimes 2ch people press upon him.

    2006

    2ch is broken.
    One Spinner got angry,and he spamed many times.
    2ch lost that authority.
    Decentralization began.

    2ch exists now.Some people post to 2ch.
    But this doesnt have so much authority and information.


    2007

    Now,decentralization proceeds.
    Japan has no center.
    Many people begins to post their own community.

    This year,press is very interested in penspinning.
    We founded Penspinning Association Japan.
    We plan Japanese tournament on not internet.

    Thank you for reading my text.
    Remember, my text is just one viewpoint.
    But I think my theory is right.
    Because maybe I am a oldest person in penspinning society in Japan.(Not age itself,as a penspinner)
    And I am very interested in penspinning history.

    Hello Crasher

    Thank you for your overview of the growth of PS in Japan. I've seen some of the videos by your fellow comrades and they seem to be very enthusiastic about spreading the word. I am wondering if the Japanese media contacted Mr. Hideaki Kondoh in their specials on PS.

    The day that everything started.

    In August 2005 PDS was hacked by a person with a nick name "좆잡고오열" "Grab dick and get mad"

    he hacked an admin of PDS and erased all the trick tutorials, kicked out all the other admin. and quit PDS

    and disappeared.

    Since then MR.LSC started to lose trust for all the people in PDS.

    I know this is a bit dumb but i want to know why UPSB v1 --> UCPSB v1 --> UPSB v2 --> UCPSB v2 --> UPSB v3?

    Maybe i'm not right about the info and stuff.

    Is it just because UPSB wanted to keep developing?

    If so, need be, will there "ever" be a UCPSB v3 or(and) UPSB v4??

  52. Zombo
    Date: Sat, Oct 11 2008 15:57:47

    "UPSB v1 --> UCPSB v1 --> UPSB v2 --> UCPSB v2 --> UPSB v3"

    it's actually:

    Pentix -> (UPSB v1) -> UPSB v2 -> UCPSB V1 -> UCPSB v2 -> (UCPSBv3) -> UPSB v3

    UPSB v1 was created because the Pentix forum was inadequate (bandwidth problems), also UPSB is designed as a common forum for many PS websites back then like PenstudioZ, PenSpin Palace, Hantricks and Pentrix, hence the name Universal. http://www.pentrix.com/upsb2/viewtopic.php?t=40

    UPSB v1 is actually a test forum that was never used and we skipped straight to UPSBv2 cuz the address of UPSB was pentrix.com/upsb2/ cuz kam never moved the directory to simply /upsb/.

    We closed down UPSBv2 cuz it had many security issues and there was too much spam. We were supposed to open UPSBv3 soon but it never happened so UCPSB v1 was created.

    UCPSBv1 was created on forumup.com which was bad, so we moved to invisionfree, hence UCPSBv2.

    UCPSBv2 had some security issues and we wanted more features on it so we worked on UCPSBv3, then I asked kam "might as well make it UPSBv3" and he agreed, so UCPSBv3 got renamed to UPSBv3.

    And before Pentix forums there was ikonboard I think.

    Thanks Zombo.

    Anyways, would like to make an account on Indian PS History (will update further):

    2003
    Some dude started spinning - need to find name

    2005
    Loads of people saw PS videos online and quite some started trying

    2006
    Almost everyone gave up except for few, whom I need to find.

    2007
    Some people started and according to me haven't quit yet!

    2008
    Me and PSArcher joined. We plan to get "a lot" better and start and Indian PenSpinning Community. I'm not sure about it 100%. If we are "ever" gonna make it, we will not name it IPSB or IPSC!

    (This is not appropriate info as many dont/haven't PS/ed in India)

    And Zombo you still havent answered my question :" Will there "ever" be a UPSB v4 or will there be need for UPSB v4?"

  54. Sfsr
    Date: Sat, Oct 11 2008 16:35:36

    That question can't be answered, obviously. UPSBv3 will keep developing and hopefully we won't need a new forum for a while, but if something drastic happens, or in a lot of years if IPB isn't a suitable way to keep the forum anymore we will have to move to a new forum. Which in that case would be named "UPSBv4".

    i kno it existed in Korea b4 1940, cause my dad also used to spin (not well, just like the basics) in his school days, and he told me his friends brothers (they started, according to my calculations, around 1940) spun too. so thats as old as i kno for korea.

    i kno it existed in Korea b4 1940, cause my dad also used to spin (not well, just like the basics) in his school days, and he told me his friends brothers (they started, according to my calculations, around 1940) spun too. so thats as old as i kno for korea.

    uh ... its kinda vague. because penspinning in the old days and modern days is different
    if you say like twirling your pen then its hundreds of years old
    but modern penspinning is not that old
    maybe like less than 40 years? idk
    correct me if im wrong

    My guess is that it started advancing around the time of Hideaki... so modern penspinning = 1990 something?

    nope.. it would have been happening from much earlier. I know some Chinese guys whose fathers have been doing it since they were kids. And not just twirling it.. Actual TA and stuff..

    I'm pretty sure modern pen spinning started before that... I think Hideaki was just the start pen spinning spreading...

    i would like to ask a question.

    did modern pen spinning started from one country/community, then eventually spinners from other countries joined,learned to spin and created their own community for their areas?

    or did modern pen spinning was developed in isolated communities, which did not know there's some other pen spinning community at the another edge of the world, and finally when a member randomly searched out there are other communities exchange of tricks/knowledge of pen spinning started?

    It started by realisation so I would say it started in Asia and it spread.

    It can never be an isolated community. It's Universal - Most of the Non-Asian people find this board first.

    ta the time there was only 2 communities: upsb and pds, so it's not really isolated, there just wasn't anything else, and PDS was created after UPSB.

    It's a board for polish spinners. So Basically it's a Poland Pen Spinning Board.

    From Wiki:
    "The Portal Polskich Penspinnerów (Polish Pen Spinning Portal) (PPP) is a Polish pen spinning website and board. It was founded by Dante and Kmibar on April 28, 2006."

    Here's the Wiki page: http://www.upsb.info/wiki/index.php/PPP

    Hello,
    I've read this on the english wikipedia article about pen spinning:

    QUOTE
    The earliest record of pen spinning comes from a student in pre-World War II in Japan (Asahi Shimbun January 31, 2008, 37th page).

    I'd like to know if anybody has a link to the article from Asahi Shinbun, or a picture of it...
    I'm very interested in the "old history" of pen spinning so any information i could get would be cool =p

    I have a history of FPSB somewhere, i'll translate it some day for the wiki...

    It might be just me, but I'm betting that's vandalism.

    It's just like the guy that thought "akujinoeso" was the world champion, etc.
