I can't speak for everyone but besides some people laughing about a necro'd thread, I can't see anyone getting upset about it. I visit quite a lot throughout the day and love seeing 'New topics since last visit (something >0)'. Necro away! And if it turns out you need a new thread, all the better.

Just don't start a thread about the latest kandi trends :D

Feel free to bump whatever you want. You're new, it's fine

US type kandi grates on me to be honest, I got given my first thing the other week at HAS but the dude wasn't like sucking a dummy or anything. It's just a bit much I think... like I have read some proper ridiculous shit about people handing over kandi with some kind of special handshake and then someone giving someone else a lightshow and it being like sooooo cool. Like ****s sake, you're all getting wrecked in a room, have a dance. wtf is a 3d cuff? lol

I tried to give someone a piece during the Scott Brown set this last weekend, and she started to do a handshake (like, peace, a heart.. wtf, i've seen it online but never in person) and I didn't and then I went to do it and I think it just confused the both of us. The way I always did it was you would just essentially hold hands, and transfer it from your arm to theirs. A hug or something after if you want.

3D cuffs are ridiculous. Just search like 3d kandy cuff on google images. I don't know how people deal with that all night.

I have been known to do some pretty ridiculous stuff myself, though. I remember going to a few parties in a pair of fuzzies that could easily of fit like 2-3 more ravers in one pant leg alone.

lol; yea; that was the typical plur trade since i have been in the scene; i guess the older method is the easier one you mentioned haha. 3ds def got big for awhile; everyone was decked out; but **** that. so sweaty; i lost shit constantly; flies off when dancing; harder to dance; just **** it.

now i just freehand with my flowtoys old school style; super proud ! :D

My bf didn't wear any kandy out this last weekend, and he said it was a lot easier to dance. Even without the phat pants.
I can see myself wearing less kandy (maybe even no kandy, I only had like 7 or 8 total over the weekend) but I can't give up the pants........

hell no we are not giving up the pants. i rep my JNCO or kikwear every party; venue or dirt; rain or shine >:)

This thread has completely derailed, much like Claxton's DJ career!

I've spent hours fighting the urge to write that!

Be careful, he could have a word with the top boys and end your career in a second......

If you had one.

Yeah, we get it, you're part of "the seen" now and criticism is not becoming.

This is a fan forum. It's not our fault that, as fans, we see a lot more that's negative than positive about the hardcore scene circa 2016. And this is just the small number of us loyal enough to stick around and watch hardcore degenerate.

EDIT: ~~Anyway, I agree that the forum dying wouldn't be the worst thing. Happy hardcore died in 2012 and this forum should reflect that fact.~~

Disregard last part. I think it's great that we still have place that hasn't started mass-fellating Gammer and his ventures into who-knows-what-the-****-core. If I wanted an echo chamber, I'd go pretty much anywhere else on the internet to discuss hardcore. Seems like you just want everyone to accept the scraps we're fed like good little peons. Buy the music and shut the **** up, right? And, damnit, you better enjoy it or else!

I was fulling willing to accept Gammer's hipster ******** until I saw him talking shit about kandy kids (perhaps joking, but still).

Well to be fair, kandy kids are a big fucking joke, but it's not a good idea for him to criticize a group that is the sole reason he's popular in the US.

May I ask what it is you hate about kandy kids? Not trying to argue or anything, just curious.

They're quite possibly some of the stupidest human beings I've ever had the displeasure of talking to, or try to talk to. They have little depth in character and many of them just seem immature and oblivious to the things going on around them.

Yes I like to talk about the scene but I also enjoy having conversations about other subjects as well like current events. This is why I've enjoyed talking with the HTID ITS ravers when I went 4 years ago the people I met seemed so damn normal I almost didn't believe they really existed. Give me British ravers orver US ravers any day!

dude seriously, **** off with the gifs. I'm assuming this behaviour earns you some kind of applause, somewhere, but honestly it's just ****ing annoying. Why couldn't you just have written 'burn' instead?

Sometimes words just aren't enough!

Plus I spend some time on another blog (not music related) and those that frequent the blog have picked up the habit of almost always responding with a gif because the blogger does it all the time, so sometimes I bring that on here.
