Did I mention I've missed you Blue? CAUSE I DID!

One reason why I encourage sellers without an established history to answer as many of the "Questions you should ask your conjurer" as possible, is that it really helps them and the buying public get a handle on how they THINK as well as how they operate. In the absence of our being there watching the process being performed, having the seller talk to us about it is a good way to help us gauge what makes them tick.

And in the case where a person comes along who genuinely has no clue what they're doing... well, that knowledge gap will become apparent to a reader with good discernment. Whereas if they DO know what they're doing, and they're just new at doing these things for the public, that will also become more obvious from what they are saying.

It's as important to get this kind of understanding from the sellers themselves, as it is to ask for the experiences of buyers. I say this because every single buyer in the world is at a different place in their meta development. The folks who are just starting out on a meta path are going to still be working on opening their perceptive abilities up. Folks with more experience, and/or those rare few born with senses wide open all their lives, will pick up on a lot more. So if the folks who are still very new to this don't see/hear/feel anything, it would have very different implications from a situation where a person who is experienced in perceiving is the one not picking up anything.

There's no blame or shame to be found when a person is a new seller OR a new buyer. Everyone begins somewhere. I did, you did, we all did. Each case can, and should, be evaluated individually.

I am in complete agreement with what you have said.

I would like to add some other thoughts. Here they are:

At various times, there are some people makingstatements that are incomplete or partially wrong, or have left out something that is of extreme importance. For those people, we should try to put out for them some more and better information, and do it in a brotherly or sisterly manner. The Forum is no where near being a Hockey Game...but it is a place for learning, knowing, and doing. CH is not MAcDonalds nor is "Clothing by Mail".

Also, there is another thought that I believe requires serious attention - AND currently, I do not see almost zero interest in it.

The Occult-Metaphysical World has been periodically under attack since the 1st witches (and all else of unusual people) been attacked verbally and physically, for myself and for my Occult-Metatphysical close friends, we see that the making the Occult-Metatphysical A Final Forever Growing and Educating and the Spreading of Occult Metatphysical Ideas, Practices, & All Else, And making it so that it will still exist, even if Our Solar System blew up into Nothingness

So the Question Remains (for ALL of US): "Do you want to create, promote, and stabilize the Occult-Metaphysical Realm as just mentioned or do you just want to dick around and have just one more clique, fad, or just self-entertainment, or just self-protection, The Answer Awaits in the Universe and They will hear the Answer either way.

In my personal view, I think it is wonderful to be a working part of one of the coolest things that have ever happened, then just being a piece of "talking meat) waiting to die".

I would "guestimate that at least 60% of the people on CH have low to moderate knowledge of my 45% of what actually exists out there. And there is nothing wrong with that. My view is that even the people in the high percentages (and like it or not I am one of them, and there are many of us who have either been on the forum or still here or are new, ) can always learn knew things at any moment and in almost any environment, because learning is a lifetime process that goes on forever without stopping (The Tibetans put a great deal of belief in this). And to repeat myself, I believe this is true of all people - But they have to want it.

Well, how about making a survey similar to this one?

If this nonsense is done...it will directly open a new site and kill Creepy Hollows within 5-6 months.

Because its absolutely programming simple to build a new Forum and advertise it through FaceBook and so on....And early on here someone else said it would start another Witch War.....

People need to take responsibility for their own knowledge...this isn't Romper Room

Also, What makes you think you can dictate what is done at CH when it is privately owned by Mags and Ash? They can do anything they want to but you cannot.

Yep, that was me as well:)

What is your reasoning to back this assertion? I will remind you that there are already spiritkeeping forums that exist other than CH.
