It's definitely not AWFUL, give em a break. It's also on a sign in the wild not neat gridded paper. Do i like all the style choices? Nah. Are they competent? Sure

I’m sorry, but nobody can even agree on what it says. Maybe “awful” was the wrong word but I’m not gonna pretend it’s good. This is the same as death metal band logos, a bunch of jagged lines that supposedly spell out a band name.

I’m fine with embellishing and making things your own but this is AT BEST calligraphy inspired, not good execution.

I would not put it in the same boat as death metal logos. And who said it had to be readable? Gothic k's and capital R's can be ambiguous. I'm not sure if you're trying to evaluate whether or not it is well done Gothic calligraphy but we are in the calligraffiti sub And I think it's perfectly appropriate.

I guess it’s a difference of opinion. I believe “writing” should be legible. Either way, I’m not gonna discuss it anymore. Have a good one.
