    Why are some people on this site so mean and unacepting? WhY!? they talk shit on bands that arents hippie bands, or just bands at all, and without explanation, they just say they suck, they talk meanly to other people, they act rudely, they seem to not care about other people's opinions, somtimes. this is only some people, and they probably dont do it all the time. i'm sure i've done the same, it's just sad somtimes. isnt this all about love and peace? i've tried to keep that idea in mind, and live by it. some people dont seem to. some people are really mean. and mean people suck :) just kiddin, kinda. i know people get mad, and that's fine if your mean when mad, because that's understandable, but some people act mean just to do it and "have fun". it's good for people to be themselves, i just wish "themselves" were nicer. they dont even have to change, i am just making a comment.
    peace- rainbow

    Most of the problem is that the whole place is being overtaken by annoying little 16 year olds with no lives..... it used to be not so bad.... :(

    Most will change. It's called "growing up".

    I went through a phase where nothing was funnier than causing trouble in chat rooms and talkers, but I eventually got bored with it.

    I figure I have some bad karma from all that net.hooliganism so I don't mind when I read mean posts. I guarantee you 99% of the people who do that shit aren't at all like that offline. They're just being dicks for kicks.

    I have seen some so called adults be pretty critical out here and offer no reasons for the comments. I am by no means a teenager anymore but feel you unjustly classified this as just a younger generation problem. I would be more than glad to waste my time sorting thru threads on here to show my point if you so desired.


    I think itis just some people have issues and it is easy for them to insult than offer constructive comments.

    To all of what I just said is my opinion and yu know what they say about those!

    Meanspiritedness is a disease of the soul. As was previously stated, the cure for it is generally maturing (which is one of the few good things that comes with age). Some people are less expressive when it comes to elaborating sensory input that they perceive viscerally rather than intellectually. Consequently, their output mirrors the intake in the form of a belch, fart or evacuation of waste that -- in their opinion -- requires no explanation or apology.

    I have taken to ignoring people. Sometimes it's impossible to avoid what they have written when an unignored person chooses to quote the ignored person. When this happens, I am happily reminded why I had put that person on my ignore list in the first place.

    I just have to stick up for myself, because I am 16, and I dont think your generalisation was very fair. I really like it here, I come and post my poetry, talk about good music like the beatles, and just have a good time with like minded accepting people, sometimes talk a bit in the religion section, i love to philiosophise. I think it was really unfair to say all us 'Kids' are taking over this place, and being immature, its just such a generalisation, that I found quite offensive, especailly since this place is a hippie forum, thats supposed to be open to everyone. And anyway, the last message posted on this thread just before mine was by a 21 year old guy, and all he had to say was fuck off..yeah really mature. I think that you'll get immature people no matter where you go, its just mean and closed minded, and an easy way out to just blame it on the younger people.

    just to make sure you know,i ma not blaming ANY young person specifically. i am yound myself, with an 8 year olds spirit!
    and after thinking about it, i guess its better to have these people be mean online to people they dont know then be mean in real life to people around them. i hope they dont do both. they could've chose an angirer bulletin board, and i wouldnt be surprise if there are such boards, in fact, i think there are, because hippies are about love nad peace, and its not very cool to come to a website that's about that and contradict it. but it's their choice, and i'm fine with it. at least pretty fine with it.

    Ha! 17! I'm not annoying yayyyyy

    I don't have a problem with anyone of any age. except 14 year olds. I find it hard to believe when they tell me theyve done a degree in chemistry but still can't spell the word.

    Yeah, I hate how people can be really mean, but I've realised that even when I'm not angry or trying to be harsh people can get annoyed. Sometimes I call people sweetie, when I think they're being cute or silly (or just trying to make them realise I like them and they shouldn't be acting like everyone against them) but once I did that and someone told me I was being insensitive and harsh.. I don't know. I try really hard to talk about stuff (I mainly talk in religion so remaining calm and not annoying people can be hard!) and not make anyone feel hostile or angry or anything but..yeh. It can happen, so I don't want to judge. I just wish everyone had that kinda mindset.

    . I haven't been on this site for months, and when i look back, it accually changed. there are hardly any meanfull threads! threads you can discuss about, and really think about.
    I'm 15 years, but I agree. Why i'm here? I like to discuss with others, learn from others. talking with people who might think the same about loving, charing , fighting for peace.
    + plus i was here a long time aggo, and liked most of the people. where are they now.
    But not all young people are immature or just little kids.
    Some are very open-minded, mature or wise for there age.
    When I go to my school. i see allot of people who are so closed-minded. they only worry about what they should were and what oher people think about them.
    people who really hate other people becaus they'r not like them.
    that's immature.
    I mean there are 'children' here who shouldn't really be here. but there are also 'children' here who care about the world, loving, politics, art , about other people and there opinions.

    and know it's anoying for the older ones (with all respect becaus they know a little more about the world)
    but it's also anoying for the younger ones, who aren't like the (childs' on this site.


    Have a peécefull, loving day and enjoy, becaus the sun's shining here (in belgium)
    Love
    Voet

    i'm 14. i know what you're saying but i don't understand either. i'm almost never mean,and i respect someone and their views until they give a reason not to. THen theres the young hippies crowd, which seems to be dominated by just a few people, and it can get a little like school in there. So forgive us if we invade your forums, and not everyone is so nice, but we occasionally need to escape the dominance of katie and her minion. KAtie is silly tho.

    those that support and believe in peace and love, just have to continue to practise such and not sink to te levels of those who would prefer attacks and name calling. never give up that a little bit of love can go a long way.

    I personally think that it's worse because it's being taken over by self-proclaimed 13 year old hippies, and 20+ year old lifeless drunks.
