Detecting LARPers

[jennaelizabeth]

@Mystic-Void

I’ve heard a LARPer say that he asked Lucifer to call them “cupcake”. Am like what is this, Twilight

Well! Whatever floats the fantasy, right?

However, part of Magick is the infamous imagination. How often we forget where we all started from and knowledge.

Growth pains - they are for everyone.

[jennaelizabeth]

Good questions and on point!

[Lilithkin]

Thank you for correcting me.
English isn’t my first language.

[Lilithkin]

Then we shouldn’t discuss the topic because you and others find it “ bothersome “
I thought this was a place of debate were such subjects can be discussed openly without prejudice, where people can meet and exchange experiences; instead there is mockery and pretensions…
I’m done

It is, but not when people post stuff that has been detected as misleading and therefore potentially dangerous to newbies. This has nothing to do with not wanting to discuss bothersome topics. If I don’t care for a topic, I mute it and move on. Works like a charm.

@Lilithkin

where people can meet and exchange experiences

Yes, but not when these so-called experiences reek of fiction and several people, when called out and challenged, behave like petulant children lashing out at people who have put forward civilized, fair criticism.

@Lilithkin

instead there is mockery and pretensions

I haven’t mocked anyone. If you had read what I and others have written, you wouldn’t have come to this conclusion.

You can read into it whatever you want. Nobody can stop you from misinterpreting other people’s words. If any of this sounds like mockery and pretense to you, that’s your own interpretation and not reality:

@Lux_Tenebris

It’s NOT: hate, jeaousy, an attack, ridicule, bullying, you name it. Just a different perspective. Take it or leave it, but since you all write so very openly about what you think are legit experiences, please allow for some experienced voices ot tell you their point of view as well. I wish everyone who is truly in a spiritual relationship the very best.

And, by the way: There’s nothing wrong with putting your spirit partners to the test. A relationship, pact, marriage etc. goes both ways. When they have expectations of you or you’ve agreed to certain things, then it should be no problem for them to give something other than sexual attention or flattery, or good feels in return. A parasite will get antsy or suddenly display a not-so loving demeanor, and thoughtforms will not deliver anyhting. Search the forum for topics about the detection and banishing of parasites or how to tell the difference between a thoughtform and an actual spirit – you’ll be surprised how common this is, there’s nothing wrong with it and you can always ask anyone here for help. We’re not here to bash newbies, we’re also not a bunch of jealous bitches who begrudge your happiness. I’m happily married to a spirit and I wish everyone to experience such a relationship in its beauty as well as complexity.

@Lady_Eva can delete your account for you.

Ah, I see you’ve read my content.

Real talk, I forgot LiveJournal even existed until now.

@anon96217651

And I do not see any form of envy in the conclusions of @Lux_Tenebris.

I agree. This dialogue brings me back to my original post:

@SagaMysterium

That was my initial reaction. And initial reactions–we all learned as we get older–are often wrong or more often incomplete. They call this phenomenon “standing too close to an elephant.”

“The analogy is that if you stand too close to an elephant, you can’t see the elephant.

@SagaMysterium

If you don’t like something, you don’t have to engage with the content. Engagement brings more views, so if you don’t want to promote something don’t engage with it.

@SagaMysterium

I also perceive this as a great thread because instead of calling-out individuals or disrupting their threads, @Littleshart started their own thread to talk about the matter. IMO this is great forum etiquette and speaks volumes to the culture of the forum.

@Lux_Tenebris

having a case of euphoria from their presumed specialness since, well, they’re Azazel’s or Lucifer’s [insert ego-boosting title]

I’m curious about a situation to detect larpers.

Say, we consider a hypothetical scenario where
a) One of my friends LARPs about having an ego-boosting personal interaction with a certain spirit (either it be romantic, or confrontational, where the LARPer has ‘defeated’ a spirit or whatever BS he feels whets his ego and
b) I actually AM coincidentially on good terms with that spirit.

In that case, can I not hold a dialogue/conversation with said Spirit - and ask the Spirit if s/he has had any such interaction with my friend?

Do spirits answer questions like these? or are such subjects about a Spirits’ interactions with another human off limits to other humans?

[Lux_Tenebris]

@RoxSta

You can ask the spirit. I did and got confirmation on my suspicions, but I also got it from other people, and in some cases, the spirit offered a different view that I hadn’t thought of and put things into perspective for me.

@RoxSta

are such subjects about a Spirits’ interactions with another human off limits to other humans?

They’re not off-limits, but generally speaking, another person’s interactions with, say, my spirit husband aren’t of any concern to me. I don’t care if someone marries Him or wins the lottery with His help or whatever relationship He has with others. But if someone claims to be His one and only “legit” spouse, for instance (which is ridiculous in and of itself), or that He supposedly told her He doesn’t get along with another spirit that is well-known for having a very close relationship with Him, and I ask Him about it, He isn’t shy about telling me that this person is full of herself and is making things up in order to get validation from others, because she’s childish and insecure.

Thanks - this certainly gave me perspective.

@Lux_Tenebris

This I understand. To think of limiting a timeless ancient spirit (that traverses multiple worlds) to remain ‘monogamous’ is a little childish - and such people claiming ‘exclusive status’ are as you say - egoistic kiddies looking for emotional validation et al. I am talking of a different angle to it when I asked that question however.

Say… hypothetically, I want to do baneful magick against some person in collusion with a spirit. Now if the recipient of my baneful magick already has a relationship with the spirit I’m colluding with - Will this spirit tell me of the complexities of this operation?

This is what I meant by “are a spirits’ dealing with human beings off limits to other humans”

[Lux_Tenebris]

I see what you mean. Good question… I know I would definitely talk to the spirit beforehand, but I’ve never been in that situation, so I can only guess that the outcome would depend on the other person’s type of relationship with that spirit, and how strong it is. But as for getting information from the spirit about another person, I think it’s definitely possible in such a case.

In my experience they can advise you against workings against that person/flat out telling you that they won’t support your way (been there…). So I suppose there are limits.

[Undying.Embers]

An ounce of a real experience is worth more than a lifetime of imagination I believe. Sometimes it’s the scarcity that allows us the ability to value the experience. Keep at it

Hi healing heart i have something to ask if can you dm me

[roulettekid]

I think LARPERS are just attracting things into reality by bringing their desires over the bridge. I mean this is a magic forum afterall; what do you expect?

[Healing_Heart]

Sadly a lot of them want to seem cool or attract attention

[Anassa]

Bump. The community need this thread.
