my two cents....
i played the game the way ive wanted to from day one...
sure over the time ive cleaned my filming to help cater to my peers and views...
thats the natural progression of our community..
but..
i made film after film over and over in order to be remembered as a serious community member.
obvisouly no well known team is gonna take anyone under 10 solos...
no point..
its and e-risk of there fake e-team and simply no one knowns anyone off a few solos...
being verbal..
pushing out solos...
creativity with editing, ideas, and skating...
these things get you remembered...
work on skating with folk online..
make solos...
you cant have a team without a posse...
let it come to you...
note:...
the og teams that are still around are around because no one on the teams takes it too seriously...
were to busy having fun..
SUPPORT YOUR HOMIES...

lol.
good points demz...
i think a good team is a team of friends... who've seen each others videos and has become familiar with each others styles. Good recruits are people who've been good contributers to the community; who are active and progressing. Why would you recruit me? Because I want to produce. I want to have fun with my friends, while making films and coming up with ideas for people to see.

I don't think teams have to be as concrete as some of the most notorious ones are. I consider myself to be on the "slap pals" team, since I've made three full lengths with homies over on the Slap forum. But very few of them (I think only The Bullet and myself) are active in the fakeskate community, nor do they make videos of their own. But we've all got that one thing in common and I'll be putting out our 4th full length vid pretty soon. None of us ever set out to make/be on a team... it just kind of happened.
that's how threat started.
we added seks and seamonkey at the beginning of skate three. Other than that it was the same OG crew from the start of S2, cuz we were all in the same boat, we had all played OG but not been active in the community. common interest
look where we are now, shit, I play almost every game i buy/have bought with my teammates. We're homies. theres threat in S3, there's threat in NHL, theres threat in Battlefield, threat in COD, and now theres a Hoodlum Gym in fightnight.
don't get on a team cuz they're "well known", get on a team cuz you're down with the people you're on a team with. Everyone on Threat was 'unknown' when we started threat.
shit, i don't think anyone knew who mamba was til he became a mod here. I can't tell you how many "who the fuck is mamba" comments we got on full lengths.
JUST.
DO.
YOU.
You know, those were amazing points, same with Briden and Marco and Demz. But honestly, its not just a well known team I want to be on, I DO wanna have the Skate 3 homies and shit, because I've not been active on any communities and I've been playing skate since OG. I bought an xbox in 2007 just for skate. So I do kind of consider myself an OG. But I just want some cool people to chill with in Skate, because none of my friends really play or anything. I don't wanna seem desperate btw, I'm just saying that I don't have many people to fakeskateboard with.

Exactly the same thing for me! Expect the active on communities-thing, I´ve been here on Fluckit quite a time now. But the whole thing about having people to sesh with and talk random shit with is something I want too. I only have like one person on Xbox Live that I do that with, but that´s like one time per month
