I mean look at how many drifting videos are on YouTube titled "Dancing in the rain" I guess you could say both of us aren't creative consider we came up with similar names without ever meeting or seeing each other. I could completely understand if i just showed up the the name Animal Stylez or Risky DevilZ or some shit but i mean Street Dancer/Dancerz is honestly not that creative of a name to have in a drifting community. Considering it's pretty relevant to drifting. |

They were dicks about having us remove them off our cars assuming it was intentional copying. Some guy even offered to pay to have someone near us remove it off the car(okay? we live on the other side of your coast buddy). We ended up removing the decal after finding out it was already done by someone else - could care less about the threats TL;DR - Chicago gets butthurt over decals.

This isn't an argument of creativity. Creativity =/= originality. Nobody is saying you "stole" the name. The point and fact of the matter is that "Street Dancer" is already being used as a team name. It's the same thing as if you were to take the names "Risky Devil", "Animal Style", "Sexy Knights", or whatever and add a Z to any of those. You were unaware of the team already being in existence until after you made your stickers and "established" your team. Then you found out Street Dancer is already a team afterwards. Shit happens, I get it, have the decency to realize that we already had the name and move the fuck on. It's really not that difficult of a concept to understand. You're an idiot.

Here's the solution... 1) Pick a different name (make something cooler) 2) Bring a cooler style (cooler is always better than cool) 3) Tear shit up (Tearing shit up while being cooler than the cool...is the coolest ) If you do all these steps correct, you will be worshiped like a God my brother. You'll obstacles along the way, but nonetheless, you shall prevail. "He who knows when he can fight and when he cannot, will be victorious." - Sun Tzu

How am I an idiot? You're getting bothered over decals and you're in Chicago. Nothing against Chicago because the cars there are sick but decal similarities = user bashing ? Happens all too often on this forum.
If its a big deal PM him get over it.

It's not a decal similarity. I couldn't give less of a shit about stickers. If you're failing to see what this is about then I don't know what to tell you. For example, why is there only one team called the Lakers? Obviously a little different situation, but maybe that'll make it easier to understand... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Chapter? Why would they do that. Most teams are usually a group of friends. Why include others that you have no interest in. I'd vote for a name change, obviously Street Dancers is taken.

Doesn't work the same way bud lol. I hear what you saying though. The issue of egos, closed circle, name issues (like now) and just a bunch of other drama and bitching that would occur. Plus most drift teams...are exactly teams not necessarily "clubs" or types of organizations like you mentioned above. They require a very different kind of mindset and mentality unlike a lot of drift teams here.

The matter of fact is Street Dancer, as a team, has been together since 2011 whereas you guys haven't seem to have been calling yourselves "Street Dancerz" for more than 18 months. As well as, prior to actually coming together as a team, Mike, Steve, and myself have known each other for quite some time before 2011, it isn't like we started in January of last year and you guys in February. It also isn't only about names and who got there first, it is the fact that we are starting to build relationships with companies as a team and it may lead to confusion to have two teams, both unrelated, operating under distinctly similar names. This is something I would like to avoid. Its rather strange that, being that you guys aren't established as a proper team, you are so hesitant to rename yourselves and instead choose to constantly have to defend yourselves. If you guys want to continue existing in our shadow, that is up to you, but we would prefer it another way and hope you share the same sentiment. Also, I don't want to fly out to LV to blood in some randoms. That is why i don't "chapters." I do agree that your car looks nice, or rather it can look nice but its got a good start. Your friends, however, need to step their game up. I think it cannot be said any better than this:

We drive s-chassis we modify - you're not unique or special stop crying over a slightly modified crew name - even by law if you trademarked you couldn't do anything over this, kinda like "Bride" splitting and doing "Bride Japan", "Starbucks" and some guy making "Dumb Starbucks"..etc Quote:
just like the girl in this gif you too are off the show sir.

exactly (in response to chiboy) You're acting like you have the right to call your team or whatever "street dancerz" because you added a Z at the end or because you didn't know that street dancer was already a team and has been a team for quite some time now. Seriously just change your team name. Like people said above, your car is nice and the others in your group have potential to build nice cars. Wouldn't you want your team to be known as something else that isn't already taken? That just makes it seem like you intentionally copied their name, even if you didn't... It would be like if you created a fast food joint called Subwayz. It would be much easier for you to think of a new name than to complain about people being butthurt. |

It's pretty damn simple to come up with a new 'team' name that sounds good, whenever you see a new up-and-coming team in Japland their name is a simple combo of car-relevant words that string well together. Could be something like ☆☆BREAK-STYLE☆☆ and as long as you get somebody to design a cool sticker or some shit, you're set.
