Talk:STREETS IS WATCHIN'
Say, could someone from the "Sons of Anarchy" maybe give some evidence for when they started using the term? Otherwise it looks like we're just going to have a reversion war. --Stoob 22:13, 3 July 2006 (BST)
- I was there when they first started spraying it around Malton... Sonny Corleone WTF 22:16, 3 July 2006 (BST)
- When was that, roughly? Because I remember streets is watchin' popping up in Urban Dead way before I heard of these anarchy guys.--Stoob 22:32, 3 July 2006 (BST)
- Sons of Anarchy didn't become known until after they admitted to doing all the Streets BS. I knew one of them from before they admitted it and he did do it. Sonny Corleone WTF 22:34, 3 July 2006 (BST)
- Sounds to me like they stole their fame from some lesser known group by copying them. I googled it up, and here's a hit to the poe-news guys back from september 2005, when the game was less than three months old. http://www.poe-news.com/forums/sp.php?pi=1001000923

- Hmm, yeah, and evidently one of the Sons of Anarchy's founders only joined in december of 2005 (http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=325429), so they obviously weren't the first in game group to start this up. Anyone have any objections to reverting the article back?--Stoob 22:51, 3 July 2006 (BST)

Ehh... I'm kind of starting to regret having listed a parody item with an "Unknown" location. Makes it potentially too easy for anyone to just make an item up and add it to the list. Part of the fun in making the list, the way I figure it anyway, is to include the location, so that other fans in the area can swing by to check out the graffiti for themselves. --Natalya Zveda 23:16, 14 April 2006 (BST)
- Not that it's especially difficult for someone to spraypaint something and then post their "brilliant" parody. Personally I'd say to remove the ones that are more "eyeroll stupid" than "funny". Anyone can say streets is doing something, but that doesn't make it witty or amusing in any way. --Vanankyte 05:18, 15 April 2006 (BST)
I've also seen
Somebody has spraypainted STREETS ARE WATCHING onto a wall.
You are inside the Streets Hotel. The building has been very heavily barricaded.
Somebody has spraypainted STREETS IS SLEEPIN' onto a wall.
Somebody has spraypainted LANES IS GLANCIN onto a wall.
Somebody has spraypainted STREETS needs a hobby onto a wall.
Somebody has spraypainted over STREETS words, cuz they are teh dumb onto a wall.
but I didn't record the location of each, so I haven't put them in the article. Feanor512 21:37, 3 May 2006 (BST)

Well I put it there anyway. If someone isn't happy with it - just take it down. Jenx 10:24, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
