I personally am in favor of it, its nice to have a little more focus and have things be a little more real in this section. it just got too pointless in young hippies for me to really check there anymore. thats just my opinion, but i like the hippie section a lot better without all of the immaturity. Hopefully we can get to some real learnin and lovin now. what are your opinions on the move of the young hippies section. Yay or Nay? but im sure most of you could care less. Love, Light, and Joy
I have been busy at work and not entering the forums so often... so am not aware of the move. But if this change did occur, I hope there will be fewer threads about hair etc... heheheheh
The problem arises when some young folks make use of the resource without regard to learning or connecting with anyone outside their clique. While I find your attitude to be refreshing it is sadly not likely shared by too many other young folks. Many used the YH section (as well as Hip Forums as a whole) merely to keep contact with a narrow group of friends without regard to or acknowledgment of any other members- including the webmaster, who made repeated reasonable requests that his resource be used in a manner that was cooperative to being search-able. Instead of cooperating with what was a very reasonable request, many of the folks lashed out at the request- likening it to the edicts of a dictator and blowing a small issue out of proportion in typical adolescent fashion and the forum continued to be used in a manner disrespectful of those who make it possible to be. I try very hard not to judge people based on age- there are numerous young folks that I've encountered that show more wisdom and character than an old fuck such as myself... I happen to work with one such individual. I find it well worth the time and effort to not be dismissive of people based on age as most of my contemporaries have allowed themselves to be beaten down by life's daily burdens- a youthful perspective is energizing and refreshing. Regrettably many of today's youth seem only interested in connecting with folks their own age who only think as they do; approaching life with a sense of entitlement that reflects itself in ways like the disrespect shown in the missing forum. I think more than the usual patience was shown but everyone has his limit. Flushing out the young and fertile minds to mix in the other areas here might enable folks to connect with people whom they might not otherwise be willing to acknowledge and may give the rest of us geezers the privilege of discovering a rare gem of a young human soul.
mind trips...eh? to tell you the truth, this is the first time ive noticed it.....I'm not complaining so, with my age, I didnt qualify for young hippies, and i dont qualify for old.....i feel much more incorperated now
The community aspect of the Young Hippies forum is the most beautiful thing about it. Who cares where it's moved or what it's name is changed to... it is still there, and still kickin'.
well...i dont mind..... whenever i tryed to express my shroom trips... or talk about a great book i've just read.... i got shoot down and insalted in the "young hippies fourm..so i just stop going there... but some people there did have some intersting thing to say...and very wide and amazeing opinions.. but i dont mind anyways...
