Japan?

[jamiedubs]

Looks like I'm leaving for Japan in Jan or so... Wanting to keep reppin my colors but I don't think there will be a point of starting a chapter over there since ill only be there for a year and half at the most. Whats everyones thoughts??

[marvin]

well, theres UK... and at one time or another.. alaska was an option..

But you are right, when people leave, then what? Pros... we will have a footprint there, but amongst who? local japanese? or local service members? Who will soon leave as well... i dunno. Cons: who will STAY in japan, making sure they stay in communication with us, do what MAYHEM does...

off the record, I am open to anything as long as ALL THE CHAPTERS agree.

(on the record I would disagree because there is no one there long term)

You just got your vest!!!!! WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just take care of your business in Japan...Rep Mayhem there, come back and rep it here in the states when you get back...

[jamiedubs]

Chingon trust me im keepin the vest and never rolling out of mayhem lol. I was just thinking while im there, for a year and half and people hit me up about mayhem... do I just tell them im here for a short period and then im going back to the states (HOME!!)... Trust me im reppin that vest all over japan haha

[marvin]

ya,,, thats the gist of it...

unless its service members..

just let them know that when they get state side, they have alot of states to choose from...  they can still join the website and start a relationship w you now..

but we cannot just start bustin nuts in every location for the fun of it...   

just my opinion, but it would have to be a permanent move, relocation, etc...  solid footprint.. not just passing through

i say u dont go there with the intent to start a chapter but if u see interest and that from the locals then it might be something to look at.... plus parts at a discount lol

[jamiedubs]

Im definatley not going there permanently and I was not planning on starting another chapter. Just wondered what the thought was of me not being around the club but in another country reppin my colors. Its not like im leaving my SD chapter by choice that is what im getting at I DO plan on comming back to the states!

[marvin]

hell,,,,,,,,,  thatd be just like everyone else in other states now... still reppin

Cho in Houston
Steve in PA
CanaDAN in CT
Will in MD
newport in FL
Eric in VA
ANTdogg in OK

I like the discount idea from the Japs....haha   anyone interested in joining should first join this Website...hello? lol   

[jamiedubs]

Yeah agree with the website thing.... but we cant even get all of the members in our chapters to come on this website... im on here daily!

[marvin]

thats true,  first it was myspace now fbook...   most members give this site the finger and refuse to use it,

the rest of us will continue to encourage the use, but we r talking to ourselves..

oh well...

you'll still be a member of the club. sd chapter if you want to claim it. i would advise against starting a chapter if that's what comes up later. all of the americans out there are only there for 1-3 years. i think it's not enough stability and too high of a turnover like marvin tha martian said. but i'm open to whatever.

[marvin]

preach on D man!

[jamiedubs]

D you know im staying SD as long as I can... this thread was more about reppin my colors over there... I dontp lan on staying there longer than a year maybe a year and a half then back I come! I was just making sure that leaving SD chapter and going over there for a while wouldnt cause any problems

[marvin]

be advised...

you are MAYHEM wherever you are, rep wherever you are, wear your vest anywhere.... now and forever.

Lets make sure that everyone (old and new) knows all our updated bylaws, rules, regs, guidelines.. etc.. so we dont bring up the same thing over and over every year
