Age Limit at Parties
I think there should be an age limit at all parties.. at least 17 or 18.. im tired of seeing 14..15 and 16 year olds getting all fucked up.. not knowing whats going on.. dressing like little hoochies.... when you were that age were you doing this???? whats going on... at least make some parties have age limits... maybe not the smaller ones .. but the bigger parties could afford it..plus more older people would go if they knew no little babies were gonna be there.... thats all i have to say about that

we've been through this b4 age requirement...not limit be a hardcore party with a 17 age limit... it'd be like stardust!! heh, been through that too! my personal opinion...a party is a place to go have fun, and just go out and be whoever you want to be. I'm all for origionality and if some little girls wanna dress like, well, no nice name to say...so i'll say revealing, then whatever. i'm not gonna hit on em, so i could really give two fucks. My one thing would be their safety, and at raves and shit there's *occasionaly* a couple people doing illegal substances and they really shouldn't be exposed to that shit so early in life, they should wait till they're older, and smarter. I'm not saying do drugs when older...i'm saying it'd be better to wait to experiment my mind keeps trailing off...but this debate has been done, so it doesn't matter what i'm sayin neways... bah

Well..I'm kind of half way on this thing...
It's unsettling to think of kids as young as 14 or 15 at parties, but then again, I was going at that age (and then again, things were maybe a bit different back then...) In many ways I agree with the justifications on age limits, but I also think that if people are keen on an older crowd, they could go to a bar or a rowing club party- something to that extent. I think many young kids inevidably make stupid decisions, no matter if it's at a rave, a houseparty, a school dance..anywhere..I'm not entirely certain that barring them from parties is really protecting them from much.. but I'll stop now.

it's a moot point. ideally we'd like the young'ns to stay home, but that won't work. honestly what age is 'ok' to start? who's to say? i'm personally against the whole 14-15yr old thing, but wtf can i do? ONE way to avoid them in general is to go to smaller parties, after hours things of that nature.

if you hate to goto parties with 14 or 15 year old then goto a club, there are some parties with are requirements...
but for real, if you put an age requirment then why not searve alcohol, and if you searve alcohol, then why not just goto a friggin club... i been partying since just before my 13th birthday and i think its great to see a bunch of youngsters having fun untill all hours of the night... if you think about it at least they are learning to be in a place without crap like violence or bigtime crime... if you are at a partie on saterday then there is no way that on that saterday you could learn to do a "b. and e." i say bring on the youngsters (not that im gonna go after the baby hoochies or nothing perverted like that cause im 21 and that would be gross)

i dont kn0 about an age limit. i had turned 15 a week b4 my first party and that wuz 5yrs ag0. everyone looked at me like i wuz lost or sumthing. people were all asking me if my m0ms knew where i wuz! lol and everyone seemed sooo much older then me.....the number of younger and (stupid) kids going to parties has sky rocketed.....i think b4 when it wuz just a small majority of rebelious lil fucks it wuz a lot better....maybe an age limit is needed n0w do to changing circumstances, but to deny people of something they (may) love because of their age seems wrong.

yeah... drug dealing is illegal and wrong... (selling poison)
but for one no one should be dealing drugs, and for 2 these kids are donna do drugs now or later no mater what, they are going to explore and experiment... i just think that banning yougsters could make them alot more resentful and less likly to be peacfull... parents arent brilliant either... when you say that your gonna goto sleep at your bestfreinds house then thats what they think as for having sex... they can do it in any public bathroom if they are horny enough

okay this is my view of partying and age and drugs..
im totally cool with youngins partying..cuz HEY im pretty young myself. raves are a form of entertainment and this city lacks youth organized public dance events, so go right ahead and go as much as they want. i really believe we need a drug awareness program on site in vancouver, just to educate the newbies and even "vetrens" what drugs are about and how to be safe with them if they are taken and even results in usage. personally i didn't know a thing about ecstacy when i took my first tab, but once i educated myself about it (on teh internet), i backed off it a bit, cuz i didn't know how powerful one lil pill can long term affect me. there shouldn't be an age limit and there should be an on site drug awareness program that is advertised in a "cool" way. let the lil girlies prance in booty shorts.. gives me something to laugh at and hey... dont diss the halfie shirts otay.

sometimes i think we need more youngins, sometimes i think the total opposite
but right now thinking about the time i started going to parties when i was 16, who really gives a fuck. theres rarely the chance to goto a somewhat quality dance party and dance all night when you're under 19... and youngins let out all that youthful energy to the MAX!! why waste all that energy when it just fades as you get older? pre teens in skimpy outfits? why has that never happened outside the rave scene? haha come on you're gonna get girls in revealing clothes regardless anywhere so i think its a waste of time trying to stop it drugs drugs drugs..... oh well when i started going to parties, it was ALL about the drugs baby. but theres only so much E you can pop till you really drop so either you stay in the scene cuz you actually like the music, take up a new drug like jibb which you can get hooked on alot longer than E, or just fuck off from the scene cuz you dont like the music sober, the E isnt hitting you the same way and you're smart enough not to get into crystal. the electronic scene is recreation.... who gives a fuck... lets just enjoy the music and rock it on the dancefloor whuuuuh whuuuuTTT!

^baahhababa, sometimes I do feel that way
But yeah, 16 ant bad... if your old enough to drive and fight in combat, why not be aloud to dance all night? We do need way more drug awarness out there. Its about the music and and a good point made on this topic in previouse years... part of the "rave scene" is being able to enjoy the music and enviroment no matter who you, we all get along rihgt? But if where getting kids younger then 16 they should probly have an older sibling or person who can keep an extra eye out.

im only 19, but i dont complain about young kids in the scene because im still pretty young myself, and if i complained about 16 and 17 year olds doing drugs and raving i'd be a hypocrite.

I personally don't like seeing 15 year olds running around a party, but I don't think an age limit would be very fair. Plus if these kids are stupid enough to pop whatever drugs someone hands them, then they deserve to fukin OD.

I dont know if anyone mentioned this because im not about to read all that was posted, But raves are business. Do you think twisted could afford to run a plaza or pne party wihtout all the little 14 yr olds? They're paying, and thats why there will never be age limits.

I guess an age limit of 16/17 at raves couldn't hurt too much, but I dunno... The rave scenes already in such a mess that adding an age limit would just end up in lots of lost revenue and therefore less parties.
Anyways, I dont care that much anymore, fuck raves. You can hear WAY better music at clubs (Im not just talking about house here), you can drink there and u dont have to worry about being surrounded by cracked out highschool kids if u dont like. Shit, from what I've noticed the people are alot nicer too, sure there are some assholes but I think the whole crowds better in pretty much every way. I just went to Passion at the rowing club this saturday and holy shit did I have a blast! Lots of nice, well dressed people having a good time listening to really really good music...

man, one of the reasons i felt that fusion dreams was a pretty dope party for a plaza rave was that outside of my crew there were more then just a handful of people in their twenties, the promoters did a real good job at promoting outside of the typical 15-18 age group that plaza usually attracts....to sum it up i didn't feel like i was an old man..until i got to my car and realized i drive a volvo. hahaha
