Question:
When you discover an old building in immediate danger of being torn down or reused should you

votes: 2
Option 2: risk the time in court and just go in
votes: 5
was just wondering on how everyone feels on this
When you get permission you waive your right to be an explorer and become a tourist. You can get great pictures either way, but I prefer to explore.
you gotta do what you gotta do. having permission is safe, but we all know not everyone sees eye to eye. I have failed more times attempting to get permission then getting hassled by cops.
I'd rather talk my way out of shit that try to talk my way into it.
Ill lurk in the shadows myself and wait patiently for my time, not my time granted by others. thats just me tho
I have gotten permission for 2 places with the promise to the gaurd i would only stay on the outside. Once they knew i was on the grounds they went in the trailer to never be seen again and that made it easier for me to go inside, since they werent patrolling around. Then i have gone back alter without permission having known where a good place to go in is and where i want to be.
where is this at?

Foxboro, had surgery sorry been missing from forums...
me and rider perfected it, in the morgue!
the way i look at it is...
if your intrested enough to ask permission and if they dont grant u permission they'll most likly hype up security of some sorts
the only permission i need is mine
pigs cant swim but they can fly....
I would only ask for permission if I knew they would more than likely say yes/not care, or if the place wasn't that important to me. Otherwise I wouldn't risk it. The point is to get in. If you get caught...well, what's the worse they can do to you? Arrested? Fine? Sure that sucks but the chances of that happening are slim and you'll get over it if it happens.
i knew in my mind at one place i was going to go either way but for shits and giggles decided to ask and damn was i surprised and what a ride its been since then!
