creative vs. vandalism

Have you been reading any McLuhan lately? (:
I have rule for that:
If somebody has put some effort into the looks of a "sprayable" space, be it a painted wall or another graffiti, than you should keep off.
If there is no sign of that, than it is up for anybody to put some effort into it.
Not quite clear cut, but works ok. ;-)
@Jonas: Indeed, McLuhan inspired a bit :)
@Peti: I like that ruleset. It clearly describes the spaces that are up for someone to put the effort in it. The thresholds however, which signal where efforts count as creative art, message, purpose versus senselessness and visual trash, are still quite blurry.
