Just a thought...
I was just thinking, you all have problems with people form HYKT generally finding something to do with their lives, yet you seem to have no problem with kids from year 9 "moshing" in public, which could have ended up in one of them getting injured? or more importantly an inocent by-stander? Look at this!

This is not just general f***ing about, which could end up in one of them being hurt. So you think that this is ok, yet you seem to kick up a storm when people involved with CS productions go around doing jackass type stunts which cause harm to nobody but themselves? if they want to injure themselves doing stunts, then let them, but this video could have resulted in a fight with people getting injured. You all have your priorities in the wrong place.

I've been banging my head against a brick wall for years. Look what its done for me.[}:)][:D]
On the other hand I did spend my formative years on the teraces of nearly all of the old First Division grounds and been 'moshed' by some very strange people. The usual antidote was to stick out a foot or raise a shoulder very quickly. This is fine if you are one of four other six foot, sixteen stone young men fed up with having the game ruined by spotty idiots who thought they were supporters.
Never mind; not much changes - as previous posts have demonstrated on similar subjects.

Hold it! Back up a bit. What's this all about? You sound like my wife when she starts an argument half way through!
I don’t even know what HYKT is let alone having a problem with it. You seem to have gone into one, accusing people of having certain attitudes, without any evidence or providing the background information to your complaint. You haven’t really made it clear what you’re complaining about either!
So, please, take a deep breath and start again from the beginning...

I'm puzzled by this post as the accusations seem to contradict each other, but I recall that the last time teenagers making videos in the town was up for discussion, many (although not all) forum members were very scathing about the Mercury's treatment of their activities, and supportive of their actions.
Having watched the video linked in the above post, it looks to me as if no one comes into serious contact with the wall, and it's 'stunt' acting for the camera. Certainly doesn't appear to be a real fight. (also, before the Mercury jump on this as 'news', it's nearly five months old!).
Or is this post just aiming to get publicity for the video?

What are you on?
Why do you think "(we) all have problems with people form HYKT generally finding something to do with their lives".
And if you think "(we) seem to kick up a storm when people involved with CS productions go around doing jackass type stunts which cause harm to nobody but themselves".............you ought to reread the posts about CS Productions from the time when The Mercury caused a stink.
It was The Mercury that was belly aching about them and I recall the majority of posters to this site couldn't see a problem with them.
And how can you compare it to peoples reactions to the video you have linked to. I'd never seen it before you posted the link and I don't think the link had been posted on this forum before either. So if no one had seen the damned thing they wouldn't have an opinion.
Having said that I watched the video you linked to and simply saw a bunch of lads arseing about. They appear to have other videos with titles such as 'Jumping over Cow Poo', 'I love Franks Car Park' and 'Joey jumping in a bush'. Hardly worth a mention. Even 'Day of Destruction' seems to contain nothing more than damaging a discarded shopping trolley.
Priorities? Get a grip. Sounds like you just want something to get defensive about.

I think you might have hit the nail on the head.
Which whacky moshing cow poo jumper might TornadoAce be?

Do we? Where did you get that idea from? When the issue was discussed a while back most posters were in support of HYKT.

What makes you say that? No-one has even commented on this video.
Maybe you had a bad day at school, but please don't take it out on forum members by making false accusations.

poor video, we did much better 'moshing' in the early 80's
can't see how anyone can critisise it apart from poor direction and use of camera.

Us Oldies still do it at the Marquee - SAD but fun. Re-living our youth (We can still remember) In this there does not seem to be any weapons so let's deal with it. We have have done it 'bought the t-shirt' We are still OK. Give Kid's that are not abusive a chance.
