lol hiya all

how long do you have to be spinning for to be called experienced coz i think i mut have missed tht point.



You're experienced if you enjoy spinning Poi - FOR-EV-AR!

That and MCP doesn't think you're a tard.

Go to "My home" option on the top and customize your profile to get non-newbie HoP status. Needs 100 posts or something.

MCP looks strangely like jesus without a beard when she contact staffs, and so is inherently cool.

right actually i have to disagree with all you lot, i think it is a great idea tht so many people are getting into Poi, coz thern this means that the legends and the practice will go on for longer and personally i would like to see it live on rather then die out completely, yeah fair enough i may have been a newbie on here but tht doesnt mean tht im a newbie at the spinning, how the hell do you lot know tht latest member hasnt been spinning all there lives until the ripe old age of 50 you dont,
i think you are completely going agiainst the whole idea and fun of Poi, it is a skill which A) helps the mind and body
but it also keeps kids off the streets from doing drugs and drinking on the streets.

i cant believe any of you are being soo pathetic as to say oh no you cant do this your too young, your new EWWW.

this has really annoyed me and i think that the more the merrier is the best rule.

also if you do see someone doing it wrong or sloppy then why not stop them, help and explain rather then putting them down or are you lot too up on your high horse to do such a thing.

all you that think it is becoming a fad and are worrying about the amount of people spinning are pathetic in my eyes god i hate snobs

thanks for burning with me

Uhm, someone else missing the point?



Most of this has been sarcasm by us (I'm not even old school) spinners.



If you want to be on topic/taken seriously, check out the post in the social forum about Poi becoming a fad.



See my post about how glowstick Poi became a craze in Texas.



It's uncool.

Dude, just post load on forums, type cr*p if needs be. After i think its 50 posts you can change it to your own title.... I think!

I love HoP snobbery! Makes me feel warm inside!
*attempts to hug MCP.... *



ive done quite a few posts and i cant change my title, mines just boring old 'member'
im quite suprised at the mean-ness of some poisters, i got such a nice welcome a few months ago, what happend?
although most are lovely and sunny heeeee!

I jumped into the river, what did i see?
Black-eyed angels swam with me.

why have you got rice? Is this some weird subculture expression like "got root"? but like with rice? Are you really hungry? Is it a claim to high status in the rice needing community?

@kael: (and for asena and )

plus zauderbadger, you're being helpful and polite typical NEWBIE behaviour. When you're vet like me, you'll be able to be cantankerous and fractious like me.

What do you mean? I'm experimenting with being really patronising and sarcastic but hiding it all behind a so that no one realises what a I am

MCP, you're an asian newbie. Your lack of understanding about rice is forgiven.

Meanwhile, I am an asian vet. When you're really, really asian like me, it gives you the privelidge to have rice for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

for newbies as well.

For now.



However, we can find you an asian friend to start you on the path to riceousness. After a strict and vigorous training with old bearded ninjas on mountain tops and in bamboo groves, you will eat nothing but rice for 1337 days, after which you may consider yourself one of the elite "rice gotters".



That is! If you beat the master in a sparring match-
