Always use "so's your face" and "only on Tuesdays" in as many conversations possible

What're the chances of this being posted before, D'ya reckon?

The existance of flamethrowers says that someone, somewhere, at sometime said "I need to set that thing on fire, but it's too far away."

Well do a search for me then. it was only a thought... I never get this bother in the discussions forum...

@brit :eeks: and "blackburn" has such a nice sound to it when it comes down to fire

But Tinkle: Poi the "new" craze you dare call it "new"?

the best smiles are the ones you lead to

When you crankily tell people to do searches as an instinctual reaction to the words "Sparkly Poi" and "What music do you spin to?" among other things

After much consideration, I find that the view is worth the asphyxiation.

I may disagree with what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

Do you think I should make a new thread asking when does one stop being a n00b? Or would that annoy the hoppers?





Its when you stop annoying Cantus and learn to do a search before starting a new topc.

yo,

you stop being a noob after 3 years.

you become 'old school' at 5/9 years

Im with Dut, Point!!!

honestly, I remeber this question coming up aaaages ago, and poi simply failed to go mainstream, all the girlys in all the festivals were spinning some tails but still I only find the same number of real poi'ers (longer than 3 years ) as I do jugglers, suggesting that although the toy is more wide known, it hasnt increased the number of nutters who get obsessed by it. I think we have already seen the peak of poi's popularity, and infact its gonna decend again. its not accessable, Its better than a computer game, but not so easy to get into.

No stupidity from your end, Aim�e...

I think there's more stages than just 'newbies' and 'Old Skool'...

I mean, I've been here a Year and a half, But I don't consider myself to be a Newbie, nor do I consider myself Old Skool... Along with many other people that are around the year and a half/two year mark...

As a spinner approaching the dawn of my old schoolness, I suggest we use the term 'Geoff' for anyone between newbiehood and old schoolness.
That way, it'll clear up all confusion

But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

I'd say if you've stuck with it over a year you're not a noob. I've shown people how to do poi.. but none of them stick with it for more than just a few days. I'd say a year would be enuf if you still got ambition (sp?) but then again.. i'm just sayin that i'm not a nood .. so dose that mean i am a noob?

You know what I'm thinking about right now? That's right, Tacos!
