The way you left rubbed me the wrong way is all. As soon as the going gets tough you leave, only to want back when things get better. That's BS and it isn't fair to those who stuck around. Twist at least came back sooner, acknowledging his mistake in being so easily persuaded.

Like I said. It's not my decision anyways.
 
Well I think it is what it is.

Working on the OP pictures at the moment.
 
Well here are the unedited picture for the op.

I hate the Toyko bay track for pictures. Its extremely to dark, and makes it almost impossible to beighten them up.

Looks good Ono, but the track just do justice for the color we use now..
 
We will have to use what we got until all of us can get back on and get a good picture.
 
Well then I say we use the one Ohno touched up.. Its looks smoother than the one I attempted.

It appears that you don't understand my reasons for leaving because this isn't the first time things were bad for the team. I have been on this team since the beginning, everything was great. Things started going downhill and Spank went into a frenzy because he thought we didn't have enough people on the team. The addition of the new people caused us to look sloppy because we were just adding people left and right and half of them didn't even last. I was stressed out and I wanted to leave, but Spank said things would get better... They didn't, people started to neglect GT5 and GTP. Not that it's a problem, I mean.. things change. But, the situation got to the point where Twist and I felt like the team was being run by the new people while the people that stayed through all the bs were being ousted. Now, after Twist and I left Twist felt some sort of way about it and joined back, but I didn't want to ask to come back because I felt like it would've just made the points I made in my letter, pointless. So, I've stayed away.. What can I say, I'm a stubborn person.. The reason I want to come back is because I feel like Spank actually took what I said to heart and made changes and enforced the attendance requirements like he used to. The team was, half-🤬 before and I just wanted Spank to get everyone in gear.. No pun intended.. Hopefully that explains everything and clears up any other problems. I also hope that your reason for the disapproval doesn't have anything to do with the other night. I was just stressed out about trying to learn and you kept saying the same thing over and over again and it annoyed me.. You only have to tell me something one time, but just because you told me to do it doesn't mean I'll get it my first time around. Especially since I've always been a drifter.. Just let me learn on my own, and if you want to throw in some helpful comments I'm open to it. Just don't keep repeating the same thing and then threaten to not allow me into your series. Patience is a virtue 👍 :)

Sheesh, I type more on GTP than I do in my essays haha
 
^ Your paragraph will certainly be acknowledged when we have a talk on if we want you reppin' the D5 dawg again. At least you have grammar...

No I mean from what I see, D5 looks like

The
Most
Organized team on all GTP. you got to be flip crazy to say otherwise, I mean look at SPANK how much effort he puts in VDC & the thread. He deserves a +1 in my opinion.

Now, everything is organized. Maybe you weren't around the first time that Spank wanted to close the team because it was too much work to put together again. That's the disorganization that I was talking about.
 
Well trying to get organized is always a challenge in one respect or another. Going back to what you stated earlier in your paragraph, the newer members having some responsibility is not a bad thing. Fastfox did a good job when he was co-leader and held down the fort. Ono was not OG and was on everyday drifting and helping Spank. Just because they don't have the memories of being on the team since April 2011 doesn't make them bad.
 
When it comes to managing a team the way that Spank does in his allotted time, there are bound to be problems when it comes to juggling work, a kid, and a team. I knew there were problems and I wasn't ready to abandon ship right when I realized them. It was just the way that Spank felt the need to recruit tons of members that were mainly liabilities because they hadn't gone through the proper initiation that the OG's had to go through. So, not only did the newbies get in with ease, they all of a sudden were managing the team and it through me for a loop. This, of course is before I got to know any of the new people, but at the time it just seemed like Drop 5 was an open club. So, when I came back and talked to Spank and I expressed how I felt about the situation, he told me that things would change soon... Keep in mind, he told me the same thing when we had issues in the team last time and everything stayed the same. So, hop into my shoes for a sec.... You were the 3rd member on the team.. had to go through two weeks a "hazing" period... then after all the time you spent on the team with the other OG members these new guys come in and not just a couple, I mean like 5 or 6 and some leave and others stay... How would you feel, knowing that after all this time trying to give and maintain an image for Drop 5 was just a waste because all these new guys come in instantaneously and just ruin it? Now, I don't regret that happening because we go great guys like you, fast, and rise and I'm glad that you guys were added, but I'm not gonna lie, I felt like my family was being invaded or something hahaha I never want it to seem like it's a burden to have the new guys after all the good things you all have done, that's just how I felt at that time. It's hard to reeeealllllyyy explain how I feel to the new guys because you weren't there during the time when the team was being built. It's almost like Twist and I were the older sons to papa Spank (hahahaha) and then all of a sudden Spank has new triplets and you guys get more...I don't want to use this word but... attention than the older kids, if that makes sense at all.


Edit: Sorry Spank, there is just a lot to explain and if I leave out a single detail then my thoughts could be misconstrued. I'm trying to make my PoV as clear as possible haha it's hard.. (that's what she said) :)
 
Killer i understood exactly where youwete coming from. The biggest thing you werent around when first started hanging with spank and everyone else. I remember the countless nights in drop5 lobbies before i became a member. Yes some have left, and some have stayed. I have chosen to stay. I have been asked several times to leave but i cant. You guys are aweaome. I kind of recruited Crisp. I get saw how well hom and myself got along. Also it was there decision based on that was because twist and rise were all on a team together previously.

Edit: Damn auto correct.

You're right, I wasn't there when you guys first came onto the team. I peeked in on the forum every now and again and was like "Who the hell are these new guys?". So, when I did come back my views towards you guys were pretty prejudice, I can't lie. But, I like how things have turned out and maybe I did jump the gun by leaving. It was all to prove a point though, which was that I wanted Drop5 to become a family again and that I wasn't the only one who wanted that. I didn't plan on asking Spank to come back at all, but when I was with you guys Sunday night it reminded me of how things were way back in like June-October of last year and man.. it was a good feeling. :D
 
^ Fox it was silvia, rise, zed and me on suislide back in the day.

Well, luckily, it's not directed towards you Zed because you pretty much know my side of things.. Or at least you would understand it better. Now, get me a slurpee :sly:

I like the new guys but it won't ever be the same. When it was me, you, silvia, spank and stig, that was the good times.
