Oguigi October 16, 2012 Share October 16, 2012 is it just me or does it seem that both admins. pleeb and Amadeus. are underfunded and under equip. if it wasn't for the mass support and loans. i'd say that this site was doom to bunk. where's the funds when you need them most. pix: Link Diary: http://ponystasha.tumblr.com Koomer.

Oguigi October 16, 2012 Share October 16, 2012 In our pockets waiting for the donate button so they can escape the spaghetti. I couldn't agree more, they would both find that this community can be exteremly generous if they just gave us the chance pix: Link Diary: http://ponystasha.tumblr.com Koomer.

Amadeus October 18, 2012 Author Share October 18, 2012 We have our challenges, yes. Also, a donation system is in the works. It will not be used to fix my computer issues, though. I'm in the process of building a budget desktop for that, and I'm almost done. We don't get much in life. But we do have this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purlox November 14, 2012 Share November 14, 2012 So after a long time of procrastination and other problems I had, here is the changed guide (warning, I changed a lot). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EnnervateIndustries November 14, 2012 Share November 14, 2012 It looks good, very thorough and informative, without any really fluffy overenthusiastic filler. The actual language itself is well suited to the subject matter, informative and simple while using symbolism where necessary while still feeling conversational for new readers. I'm quite happy that you specifically mention the uniqueness of the creation process to each person. I would recommend leaving a warning about the IRC, though, it is not usually as useful as you make it sound. There are also a couple places where you may want to enclose a page title in quotes. Another similar mechanical issue is that "(tulpa)forcing" can be switched to just "forcing" after the first usage, it looks a little messy. The second paragraph of "Further Development" needs an article to start its first sentence. From Maia: "Good, very good. If you could add some thoughts from a tulpa's perspective, that would be great, but I would understand if you think it would alienate people."

That is pretty much my only concern about it. It's definitely better than the earlier version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purlox November 15, 2012 Share November 15, 2012 I would recommend leaving a warning about the IRC, though, it is not usually as useful as you make it sound. The IRC channels are pretty good at helping newcomers or at least I think so from the position of a mod. (Just for clarification: I'm mainly talking about #tulpa.info) From Maia: "Good, very good. If you could add some thoughts from a tulpa's perspective, that would be great, but I would understand if you think it would alienate people." Good idea, but it's a bit tricky fitting that in. Where do you think tulpa's perspective would be good to add? I made some smaller changes to the guide and here is the current version (.docx and .rtf). The changes are mostly grammatical and small changes in how 3 or 4 things were worded, nothing major. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EnnervateIndustries November 16, 2012 Share November 16, 2012 Where do you think tulpa's perspective would be good to add? I have no idea, actually. It seems like it could generate interest, though. Your call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purlox November 16, 2012 Share November 16, 2012 @EnnervateIndustries and Maia: I know, but I don't have any ideas currently as to how or where I should put it, so I asked you to tell me what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
