ur neva gona a graffiti artist t say that tagging is a bad thing.but good try!as for the issue towards the eng regarding"post code wars"this is an overspill of the violance that has been occuring in the suburbs of our great city(gun and knife crime)this is in no way linked to pre existing taggers/graffiti artits(remember there is a difference)and yes i beleive it is people claiming their teritory.and as for the park being managed it needs it,we also need more spaces to paint!

u can look at it from 2 different perspectives, look at cave art and calligraphy, tagging is a modern day version of cave art and has some real good conections to calligraphy...so yeah i do at times look at a tag and think yeah that persons got a good hand style (graffiti person chat for taggin as you call it, difference is you only give props for good hand style if they are doing an acomplished tag)

Not really. This is an interview, not an arguement. This was Rob Elliot putting over his views. I was limited also limited to 10minutes - so as to fit into YouTube criteria. If I had quized Rob more, you will find that when he managed Selly Oak graffiti park, taggers were not allowed to paint in the park.

Also, didn't I see you going into Sainsbury Homebase, Kings Heath this afternoon?

didnt i see you into 12 southlands road last night with a teenage boy prostitute?
if not im surprised that once you went home alone, you waste of air food and, more importantly, probably a good mans sperm initially :)

All writers "artists" will tag, its the scene its comes in all elements,taggers were painting the park! but they were artists too! you seem to think that tagger and artists are two seperate people, theyre are more taggers than artists these days but the artists are taggers too. i respect your trying to learn about the scene but i don't think you'll ever understand it son!
