Save Home of Poi

FRD, get your butt (and the rest of you) out here right NOW!

like alot of others i have recently came back to hop - i stopped coming a while ago cos i just got to busy with work.... then my laptop screen broke..... but now that i am able to spend time on here (in hospital for a month lucky me) theres almost noone that i knew...
i feel weird even writting on this thread cos it seems like im the kiss of death for a thread one comment from me and everyone leaves lol im starting to get a complex. But i do hope that people start popping in more cos i need entertained

Nope, its me that kills threads

frd must have been lurking a while he sent me to this thread to check it out why it wa so quiet lol

Oh dear.
I have been visiting HOP so rarely that I have just been reading posts from way back in August for the first time. Plus I am joining this discussion 7 pages in.. Sooorrrrryyyyy! I guess I am one of the many people around here that used to post every day and have let it slip - I must say tho -I have missed you guys!
Hugs!

Wow, maybe all it took was this thread?

The problem is that I'm not sure this trick will work next time. I think some of the ideas that have been brought up about integrating HoP into Facebook or similar sites is a good one, though.

I guess a lot of us have just become lurkers now. I read like everything in social chat and discussion, but rarely feel like I have anything interesting to contribute... I dunno... does anyone else get that?

I certainly feel out of sync from the whole "old days", where I'd just slap any old crap up... maybe its just that I've grown up? But then, that might just be me... hmmm...

As for Facebook mergings... I wouldn't add a homeofpoi app. I try not to use them, as they're quite annoying. Whilst I certainly see how facebook can increase social activity within the community, I can't quite see why having a HoP group on facebook would increase activity here... wouldn't it reduce activity by rendering the forum useless? If everyone's nattering away on facebook, who's going to be clearing up the tumbleweeds here?

Whilst I may be lurking still, I think I'll always be on HoP. Its kinda like your local bar. You don't have to talk to anyone, just listen in on your mates conversation and join in at any time.

I think my feelings can truly be summed up by this.

Intergration with another site is only going to be counter productive.

I think HoP itself needs to edge towards social networking structures.

Sweet. You've single-handedly saved HoP by starting this thread. Well done.

I'm looking forward to this new era of Lightning-Inspired Enlightenment. I don't want to break it so I'll just sit back and watch the magic.

If not for this forum, I would never come here.

I wish there were another place for people around the world to meet and chat about manipulation where people actually get responses. I guess jugglingdb and contactjuggling.org are good options....

Thank you, thank you. I will gladly except being showered with rose petals, gifts of dancing boys, medals, statues, or a day named after me.

If you'll recall, some years ago, we came to the conclusion that I am the pinnacle of human evolution. Thus, I must have great powers.

Wait... Isn't that we are talking about? this forum is here if it is not what else is here?

at lightning

YOU'RE the pinnacle of human evolution?

Granted, you're a good-looking chap (from a hetero POV)...

Dear god. If thats all the human race has to look forward to, perhaps we should emulate the Disney lemming

Hey don't knock Lemmings they are actually quite intelligent. You give them a cliff and they will give you an infinite number of different ways to kill yourself.

And we wonder why kids today are so screwed up!

stuff

Well, the argument was that because I'm gay and therefore won't reproduce, I must be the pinnacle of human evolution. If there was more evolving to be done, then I'd be straight. But if I'm the pinnacle, then there's no point in further reproduction. Thus, I must be the pinnacle of human evolution.

Q.E.D.

Ah.

Quod Erat Demonstrandum Indeed

They DO teach you stuff in the British school system! How novel!

Good one Noel!

yey i didnt kill this thread... now i got some entertainment whilst in hospital.... where the food is awful... Mmmm wonder if a pizza place will deliver??? yey for this thread

There is a Facebook HoP group isn't there? I'm pretty sure I remember joining one, though don't remember anything *happening* on it.. I think some tumbleweed rolled past a while back, but that was about it.

Doc, you're comparing the British school system to the American school system?

Please.

Point to Africa on a globe please...

You guys make me laugh, how I have misssed HOP

And yet, here's me going "WTF is QED?"

*points at Flashpoint's mom* Well, she's the SIZE of Africa...

And FRD, Flashpoint was educated in the British school system. You... well, you just muddled through.

*pokes thread*

Hey. I've been around, just wanted to say hi - been on the move though. When the dust settles down I'll be visiting Doc and Noel again :]

Hey Kael - Long time no see...

And Doc. Please, your mom jokes are scraping the barrel.

Even if you know how to spell "Mum" correctly

Thats just not true now is it!
Your mum jokes will never stop being funny.

Your mom is scraping the barrel.

OK, *THIS* is the old HoP we know and love! When it comes down to ur mom jokes, things are back to normal.
