Chupi May 20, 2013 May 20, 2013 How do people even handle more than one tupper. When do you get to have your own me time? How do people even handle more than one family member. When do you get to have your own me time? They can do stuff with each other. If you need time alone, you can pack them all off someplace fun for the day. Actually, having more than one improves your ability to do this because they can entertain each other instead of always pestering you. I rather like the number 3. If you spend time with one, the other two can be together if they like instead of being alone and bored.

NekoiNemo May 21, 2013 May 21, 2013 I kind of like the 3-5 limit. Although i can imagine that it will be rather rowdy if they all will be around their host simultaneously... 現実に抗え！
Sands May 21, 2013 May 21, 2013 How do people even handle more than one family member. When do you get to have your own me time? Seeing how my family members are in other bodies and their lives aren't as connected to mine as a tupper's (not to mention how we're not even together at all anymore), I'd say that's a really bad comparison. As usual, coming from you, eh Chupi? A better one might be comparing your tuppers to kids instead of all the family members as you need to give all of those a lot of time and you can't really pick favorites, but those too will have a life outside the family. Most of their life actually will be outside the family. A tupper can't do the same thing if you are in charge of the body. Sure, they got other tuppers if you got more than one, but it's just those. What if they want to meet someone else? Make another tupper? That just gets out of control. They'd need the body to meet other new people in other bodies. It will never be the same, Chupi, I'm worried how you can compare those two different things and not see how different they are. But you didn't answer me how you spend time with them all while also giving yourself enough time to spend on your own, just, well, how to have some alone time without the tuppers bugging you.

Chupi May 21, 2013 May 21, 2013 >missing the point entirely They can have a life separate from you if you allow them to. They can interact with each other, and create NPCs, places and so forth. No, they can't interact with the real world directly, but they can interact with a wonderland that is every bit as real to them as the real world. The real world might be the only one you're interested in, but many tulpas are perfectly happy spending time in a wonderland.

The real world might be the only one you're interested in, but many tulpas are perfectly happy spending time in a wonderland. And you missed the point about what if they want to meet a new person who is an actual person with their own opinions and likes and dislikes, like a tupper or you know, another human being or something. Not an NPC, which as far as I know, isn't what I described. They only got each other, but what if they want someone new to talk to, a new friend? You think an NPC will ever be able to fill that hole? They can have their own lives, yeah. They can't however do what most other humans can, which is to find new friends to spend time with and get a bigger social network if the rest of the old ones are doing something else. In that way, they can't be separate from you and your life if you are already using the body. We're people, we're social creatures. A sockpuppet might amuse someone for a while alone, but in the end, no matter how many of those you get, it will be so much more fun if you had someone else there to play with you. And sometimes you grow tired of the same old faces, so new friends with new and exciting things to say would be fucking awesome, yeah? You still didn't answer my question about where you find enough time to actually hang out with every tupper, probably have some time alone with just you and them as well because hey, that's important too. Which is the question I want the answer to, not what else a tupper could be doing when they can't be with you.

Guest Anonymous May 22, 2013 May 22, 2013 K: Having more than 2 tulpas has become problematic for us, so we have decided to have no more than that.
Guest Anonymous May 22, 2013 May 22, 2013 As others have said, I would go for a limit of three or four. It creates a good, small group dynamic. However, I don't believe in starting one tulpa until the other is finished, fully imposed, and able to parallel process. After that is done, then it is okay to move on. I feel as if anything else is unfair to the current tulpa. Though I still don't believe a mind will ever be fully "finished" developing persay, I must grant you No, I don't think many of us are striving to have the most tulpae, if any at all. Look at many of the hosts here and you'll find that many only have one to three. As of right now, I've only made one and I'll probably only be making one more eventually. An upper limit for someone who is hellbent on having a large group of tulpae would be somewhere between seven and ten. At least that is what I think. As for you, I can only give you half of my this. An "is"... or a "th" if you prefer. Listen, perhaps I'm wrong in everyone is doing this, but a number of people that bothers me. Perhaps I need to extend my horizons past IRC, or expand my cone of vision over the forums, but there's a bothersome (to me) number of people who seem to be intent on talking about how many tulpalamas they have, or are going to have. As for the larger numbers (I'm talking over 10... or hell, even over 5) I suppose my reasoning comes from the "why". I believe it's alright to have a few tulpalamas you make yourself, and leave room for them to create their tulpalamas and so on and so forth. In that case, I suppose one can't help it, but I'm talking about when one individual creates a rediculous number of tulpalamas. Why would one need so many? The only reason I could see someone doing that is because A) they're trying to create a replacement for human interaction (which is bad for another slew of reasons) or B) they're trying to make some kind of mark to say "Hey fucks. Look at me. I've got so many more tulpalamas than you". Again, I could be over reacting, but that's kind of what I was thinking when I was writing that mini-rant...
HollyC May 25, 2013 May 25, 2013 It all depends on the host and/or the already existing tups imo. For people who can actually handle a lot of tuppers, 1-3 I'd say. Maaaybe even 4. Then again the ideal number of tulpas for some people is 0 though... Woof. (Avatar by Yotslot)
Nobillis May 25, 2013 May 25, 2013 So... what do you think the best number is? [Kevin says: I'm slow at this, so no more then one per decade I would say. That way the older ones help the younger one, and the younger one teaches the others how to be more modern. This is just a guess.] What if they want to meet someone else? Make another tupper? That just gets out of control. They'd need the body to meet other new people in other bodies. [Kevin says: Indeed, and unless you have an older tulper who can switch whilst you are sleeping, you are going to be supporting the tulpas as they go on chat and stuff. Fortunately, kerin had already made Watchdog 3 for that sort of stuff, so I just let him handle it when I need rest. My tulpas learn much more from other humans then they learn from me - actually I learn from them in fact. Sadly, since most people don't switch it's not a viable solution for everybody. I think it helps that each of my tulpas actually has an individual purpose - something that they each do that helps me and also each other. Though, for any given thing, probably all of them are capable; just some are better at particular things. E.g. Nobillis is the only one that cooks. As far as I can tell, I'm an outlier in almost every parameter of tulpas development except number. Besides, too many tulpas will drive you sane - and that gets really boring really quickly.] Please consider supporting Tulpa.info.
