Forums > Social Chat > HoPpers : Why are we all so nice?

Now, I have been on HoP for a couple days short of a year, and it has been a very eventful year too.

I would like everyone's opinion, using the slip provided, as to why HoP is possibly the nicest bunch of peeps it has ever been anyones pleasure to encounter.

At PLAY, I got talking to a small group of the VDubbers who had ambulated over to watch the show on Saturday Night. The comments ranged from 'Ive never seen anything like it, its all so amazing', referring to the performers, to comments like 'You are all so welcoming', 'you hear about the youth of today, and how its so bad, then we meet a group like you', 'the atmosphere here is so wonderful'. I had to agree.
They also couldnt understand that we were, at base, an online community, and that the hard work of Dunc and the gang had all been put in for the community (that is, not just HoP, but the whole juggling/spinning/OM community).



So, why do you think this is?

Hmm now you come to mention it, I think spinning appeals to a certain type of person, maybie were slightly more excitable than other people, and we love to see colours and tails and fire and devil sticks and flags oooooh flags, spinning around. Im deffinatly a visial person is everyone else? (probably yes lol)

You aren't thinking or really existing unless you're willing to risk even your own sanity in the judgment of your existence.

Part of it is about putting a smile on someone elses face. It's not something you can do on your own. Then it's only practice for showing to someone later.

Then there's the whole aesthetic side of things. Everything has to look pretty,
