Posted: This is an open post to all of you. It's not just for those people you think it's for - it's for them, you and everyone else to take note of.
I've not been on HoP much for the last couple of weeks, but it seems clear to me that there has been a lot of negativity thrown around the place. Whilst I could list a few core people what I have to say applies to every member of this community. It is clear that some people are too eager to turn discussions into personal slanging matches.
This has to stop. Home of Poi is not a place for you to pick fights, throw insults and engage in petty bickering.
Before you post I ask you to consider that Home of Poi is intented as an open, friendly community of people. As a community based on the loose connection that we all spin poi, staff or the like it is often the case that members have vastly differing views to each other. Therefore I ask you to respect this fact and treat each other warmly or, at worst, not at all.
It is my wish, and I believe it is Malcolm's too, that this comunity is a welcoming, open minded, warm, understanding, supporting and forgiving community based around spinning, regardless of politics and religion. If you are not prepared to play a part in making this comunity so, then please leave now. Otherwise read on.
The 'Social Discussion' forum in particular was always going to be a tricky one to keep the peace in. People with opposing views can and do have active, intelligent discussions without descending into what resembles a pack of monkeys screaming at each other across a stream. My hope was that this forum would give us a place to have sensible, open discussions where people can express their views, and I think that this has worked most of the time.
Before you post please consider a few things, including: - Am I making this post out of anger? - Do I have a valid point to make? - Am I making my point/beliefs/idea clearly enough considering the limitations of post based communication?
If the answer to any of these is NO then reconsider you post.
- Is my post likely to cause an inflamatory reaction with a particular member/s? - Is this post part of an increasingly heated exchange between 2/3 people?
If the answer is yes then chances are you're involved in a slanging match and there's no point continuing an open argument. Not only does everyone involved look bad and the community vibe disturbed, but the simple truth is that you are not going to change the views of someone so openly opposed to your way of thinking. So, if you wish to take individual matter further I recomend you do so via email or PM.
So, please everyone, think positively before you post.
