**Please Read!**

Alright, my fellow Hipforums members ...

I haven't been spendnig much time on the forums latley, but apparently there is some serious business going on. Random Thoughts has been CLOSED! That is a big impact on alot of posters lives. Granted, we should all have more of a life than an online forum, but it sure is alot of fun! So now there is talk of closing Young Hippies as well, something I wish to never see!

Just to prove to the mods and to Skip himself that we have self control, and we aren't a bunch of useless minds, I beg you not to post worthless junk. If your not contributing to the thread, don't post! If you have somthing to say, then start a thread about that topic ... and STAY ON TOPIC!

I don't want all of you to think i'm a prude ... but please, I love this site, and all of the users who post here, I don't want to see this taken away.


Much love to all of you.

 

Damn, I haven't been on here as much lately and this is the first I've heard of this.

I second all of that.

 

WHAT??

But Random Thoughts...is for...random thoughts. That's so stupid.

Eh, if Skip closes all the fora that are enjoyable, I don't care. Let him be an asshole.

 

This is the start of something big, not just for the hipforums... but internet safety is starting to go up...even in the news you have a lot of Internet Safety topics around... Just watch, within 10 years all that we'll do on the internet will be observed by people trained to do their job.

 

i know! i miss the random thoughts forum. i can't believe they got rid of it. i know there were a bunch of gay-ass people who posted meaningless shit, but there were a few decent posts too. eh. maybe if we can control ourselves and act a little more mature they'll bring it back?

 

I second Josh on his request
forum=discussion and information
for things outside what forums imply there are always internet messengers, myspaces&other stuff. i'm sure there's a state of mind/concept/spirit of YH which has to be outspoken even if it involves random topics, that, still, are in what the whole concept/state of mind involves...
am i being confusing?

 

same here

 

internet neutrality mang

 

lol there is alot of going off topic in here isnt there..

 

I have to say, I don't blame Skip for doing whatever he wants on here. Some people post stuff that is so immature and so irrevelant, how could we argue? I agree, if we could all use our common sense in our posting, perhaps we could have a better hipforums than before. I love this place and I don't want to see it go.

 

I guess Random Thoughts and YH have been big ole contributers to lots of people's lack of lives... But... Still. Random thoughts. It served it's purpose well. Chock full of random thoughts and discussions on the matters...

And Young Hippies has become... A thing. He can't just... close it down.

Okay, well, yeah, I guess he can do what he wants, but I hope he doesn't get rid of this place. He'd lose a lot of visitors/members I think. Lots of folks only come on here to talk on these two forums.

Either way, I guess we'll make due...

 

I mostly use the Hipforums for YH ...

I do occasionally venture outward though.




Thank you for all of your thoughts guys and gals.

 

I stick to YH, Fashions and Crafts, and I usually go and look around in Gardening, Poetry, Canada, Women's Issues and Health...

If they close YH though... There will be a hole. That's all.

 

If they close YH im totally out of hipforums forever.
This is the only forum i visit,and sometimes the stoners...
yeah it sux

 

if they close yh i'll just keep goin to dave's forum
(even though i go there every day...nothin' new...always dead...)


i pretty much "hover" around art poetry and other random places i find myself (philosophy and religion forums, psychedelics)
but i kinda stick around marijuana forums

go figure...

 

so, hows y'alls testicles feeling today?

 

my testicles are pretty godamn fine chris

i grab life like i grab a nutsack

 

RT was closed mainly because it was being used to attack Skip and question the moderating. This was being done by some members. Plenty of warning was given; the issue had been building for some time. A handful of members forced his hand- the rest of us had a part in the demise by giving the offending members attention and feeding their egos by keeping their threads active. Hopefully our mistake will ensure that others won't repeat.

 

two minutes hate anyone, anyone?
i'll get the popcorn

 

yes there were plenty of skip-attacking threads in RT, but then again there was such a period in YH too. he didn't close the deal up though then. but did he also ban everyone who posted there? cause unless he banned them, the people are still around...
