1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    You can dismiss this message by clicking on the X in the upper right corner.

    Thanks! The Hipforums Staff

    I think any community that tries to limit age against the “too young” or “too old” loses initiative and wisdom respectively; and will not maintain for more than a generation or 2, if lucky.

    The young keep you young and the older keep you wise! There's a balance that's necessary in a successful community! ❤️

    It depends on what the commune's mission statement is. Not all places have worker bees. Some people bring gifts of labor, others bring gifts of talent, and others bring gifts of treasure. I am interested in communal living so that I have others around me in times of need and a place where I can eat foods that are to my specifications.
