I love how this site brings all types of unique and interesting people. I have already met some of the most intelligent vampires.

But, being such a unique site and forum, do you think people get too lost in the fantasy world to the point that it's a bit obnoxious?

I have witnessed a few people who have said the most outrageous and blatantly unbelievable things on this site. They seem to lose touch with what an actual vampire is and delve into the world of science fiction.

For example, a nice young girl I know has the most out there theories.

"I'm a vampire, witch, werewolf, and flesh eating zombie by night. Aha!"

Is it just me or have people noticed that others with unique beliefs tend to get too lost in the fantasy?

I've been here for a year and I've seen lots so it's not only you.

Most do it cause they seriously believe they're going to get taken seriously andp oeple will say:Wwhoa really?You are cool!I'm scared of you!

Pity that most peoplel augh at them.

Therefore let them livei n their fantasy,when they'll realise reality it will be a blast and a door for adulthood.

I believe it happens, infact there was a person here once named Empress, who seemed to be too lost in her own Fantasy world to realize anything. Not to mention she pissed off a lot of people with her attitude.

As for those who believe they are of clans and have special powers like shift into mist, yes, there are those on this site as well, and I personally do not feel sorry for those who are willing to loose themselves to something that is very much obvious to be fantasy.

If they are stupid enough to believe they are Cain's children and are apart of the 13 clans who all hate each other, but are split into three fraction, then thats fine, let them believe that. I won't wast my time on trying to tell them other wise, because people like that, tend to freak out when "Their" reality finally falls apart around them or is put into question.

It gets pretty sad, I had one person calling themselves the Antideluvian of Lasombra and if I didn't stop pissing him off or stop commenting on his post that he would come over and take my soul.

Needless to say after I challenged his ass to show up and talking to the Admin of the site, he didn't show up and was kicked from the site for threating me.

People need to realize what reality is.

I think I am a little lost in the fantasy...but maybe in a good way. I usually have a pretty bad day at the hospital, with all the blood cancers and sick people...when I come home and enter this site, suddenly I am a different person... I try to live out what I wrote in my stories, I am the character I play in the role-play threads, I try to serve my Coven Master the best I can and, of course, Our Prince...
If I can help and I am asked for help, I offer it...
Am I to blame? I am too lost in the fantasy?

Let us not forget that many minds are fragile and taking away what they truly enjoy (whether they know it's real or not) can be detrimental. While it can be overwhelming to listen to the claims that some make, it's really not hurting anyone. Don't get me wrong, a lot of what I see and hear is so far fetched, it's beyond laughable. As long as it doesn't hurt me personally (or anyone else) though, I say let them have their fantasies.

You're bound to get fanatics on all big sites. People who sit at their computer all day and do nothing but talk about who the wish they were and eventually they think they are that person they described. Thsoe types of people should get help but they are not all bad. Let them believe what they want, dont get mad at them, people dont like you for reasons, you dont like them for this reason. Dont be hypocritical. Besides, everyone is allowed their opinion, even if they are wrong. You can't change their mind because you want to. Good post though.

Yeah, blood drinking is real. I believe vampires are real. not the shape-shifting, murdering, raping, flying, undead creature of the night, but people that are able to take energy from others in some way. I know that to be true. But not what some of these people claim to be or do.

It's sad when people have a hard time with fantasy and reality. Like Ahriman said, after a hard day at work, and some of the things that people deal with on a daily basis, having a safe haven to share the other side/nature of us.....too lost in the fantasy?

Blood drinking, with all the precautions, it is unsafe and useless!!!!!
The blood coagulates quickly into the stomach, plus the blood cells are destroyed by the acidity and other proteasys and enzymes that are found in the digestive system...it will be more of a help if you`d have blood transfusion...

Have you never cared for a vampire, Ahriman? They found a way to use the energy in it. Its not the blood, its the energy. It all has to do with energy. And your opinion of it being unsafe, thats your profession talking, in my opinion. It can be done safely, its done all over the world safely.

*Takes out the white flag*

Fantasising does not harm,I'm always day dreaming,but in the end I am aware of who and what I am.

But then am going to say a provocative tought,if certain people stop saying they aret hings they're not,people won't mock them nor those who are in the vampiric,gothic,whatever scene.

Surely other people choose not to understand but part of the fault is f these people that claim they are something they're not.

Blood drinking may not have a nutritional benefit, but it is a recognized fetish and does have some satisfaction for the people who practice.

Yes, there are many here that cannot seem to distinguish fact from fantasy. It is annoying because you cannot have an A to B conversation with someone that is delusional. I try not to be to harsh in dealing with these types..but haven't always found the higher ground. :)

My opinion is I think fantasy is cool as long as you really know what reality is. I think it fun to be able to relax and play on this site, but ultimately the reason I love it so much is most people are real here.I love the interest in the occult and it has some very informative and exciting reading. I chose the iggy button for rude ones or simply dont respond for the small percentage that are still in their own little lala land,.. hehehe, maybe they need a reality check to wake em up. But it isnt my job.

I agree with the blood drinking as a fetish...but the energy...ok, you can absorbe energy from another being...but mostly, by drinking blood is just you who create a placebo effect on your body...is your brain who enjoys blood and generates the right hormones for the body to feel energised...

Yes, the possibility exists that the "placebo effect" is all any of it is, blood or psychic. Unfortunately though, we can't prove or disprove it either way.

The matter isn't whether these fantasy lunatics are hurting me or others. It's the matter that they are doing this to themselves.

They are totally dissolving any chance they might have to be in a real and stable relationship/friendship. It isn't healthy to feel the need to make things up just to make yourself feel better.

People shouldn't have to be so scared/unbalanced that they make up a world entirely of their own. It's a real problem, and it seems that the problem thrives on alternative sites from the broad variety of people who come here. Like I said, unique is great, but too far is too far.

I agree that way too many people get lost in the fantasy. But there are those of us that keep our selves rooted and aware of REAL reality. Let the poor souls that get lost be, as long as they are not harming others because of it.

I think that there are some who being young have the belief still in the TV version of vampire and think they are among "REAL"(tv type) vampires and will be made one....but then there are some who just do it to shock the new people or who are here for a sort of role playing extention of masquerade or something.

I admit, i get lost in a fantasy world sometimes, mostly in the form of RP with my good buddy Spike13. But i'm also firmly grounded in reality too, and I think thats the main thing. Fantasies are great, so long as they don't start influencing real life to a point where you can't tell the difference anymore

Y'know, I read a quote once that said, "If you could envision yourself as the kind of person God(dess) intended you to be, you would rise up & never be the same again."

In a sense, isn't that what we try to do when we fantasize? We try to envision ourselves as "better," whether "better" means "purer," "smarter," "darker," "more powerful," or so on. So one could say that living up to- or fulfilling a fantasy- isn't necessarily bad. As others have stated, I think the problem comes when you are harming other people to fulfill it....physically, mentally, emotionally, or spiritually.

As long as we remember where the lines are drawn, I think fantasy can be a wonderful thing.

Fantasy is a powerful psychological device. Freud, of course would want to say it's all about sex- probably in this case attaining it. In that realm, I would reference the D&D everynight of the week, still lives in mom's basement, and will be celebrating a birthday over the age of 40 this year, as well as the sexual pent up kids. I love the kids.
I think they are just trying on new shoes until they find the ones they like.

Jung would go off about an over active unconcious playing out/ manifesting in the personality...

I say it's harmless until it makes you do something that would be socially unacceptable... like cutting someone without their permission, or some other really overboard sh*t like that...

wow...thats a fun one to discuss. I've seen alot out there, and not just on this site. However, during the duration of my stay thus far, I have witnessed some interesting stuff. Your not looney, thats for sure. :)

People get lost in this....VR is like....a release...an escape from RL....and its wonderful sometimes. Some people just need to escape more then others....some of us live really hard lives and that is why so many come up with such fantasy.

VR is like home to some of us. I know I've only just begun here but this place is just....I meet so many people who share the same beliefs as I do. I used to think I was alone...but I know I'm not now.

The fantasy just comes with the territory I guess.

I used to be lost in the fantasy.

But its until you try to invoke the knowledge of the mysterious elements of the real world that you finally understand their existance.

:D

------------------------------

Think of it this way.

Fantasy worlds are typically places of escape from the real world. They are composed of imaginary elements, and certain plot-like elements, such as adventure, danger, horror, mysticism, etc. Everything you would find in a good sci-fi book.

As much as the real world can be a backlash, if you turn around, and imagine you lived in an unbearable place, and began imagining this world...

Think about you. Just as in roleplaying (if indeed you roleplay) where you determine the status of your character in comparison to the setting, where are you? Who are you, and what are you going to do about the world around you? What is it you plan to make of yourself in this world of corrupt politics, vampires, distorted media, gang violence, wars overseas, and stereotypes,... in this world of deep history, and many faiths.
What are you going to do in this modern Babylon?

Does it seem not that attractive?
Does it seem... just too real as it were?

Thats because it is.
... and it sucks...
I know. I know.

*looks up at his idea and sighs*

You know what? Go ahead and keep your fantasy world.

There is little harm in indulging in a fantasy but when one crosses the threshold between fantasy and reality life becomes blurred and this is when medication may be of some use - seriously. That is what psychologists are for.

Or else some of these people just need to get over themselves...

People tend to want a life to be like their fantasy so they tend to attempt to get others to believe it or become engrossed in a fantasy world. sometimes they don't realize that is what has happened and truly begin to believe it is really because they so greatly wish it could be.

I've noticed myself that people become lost in the fantasy. One friend of mine is so far gone in this fantasy world that sometimes I find myself believing in it as well. It's strange exactly how it happens. When I pry myself away from him I'm clear in my head but when I'm close to him he begins to make me believe some of the most outlandish things, such as Vlad and the house of vampires he lives with being part of some big global plot. That's just ridiculous! Sometimes I think I'm sick in my head for believing it when he's around.

I agree that it's getting to be annoying. I once delt with things like that at a different site...and they were completely ruining themselves over this "fantasy"

They had themselves believing that they could fly and cast spells on other people with their little fairy wands and crap.

Now, that I look back on it. It all seems pretty lame. lol

Most prolly they do it,cause they can't accept reality so they build a fantasyland.

Till then it's ok,but then when they start really believing it,it starts to be a problem cause it starts to be a mental sickness....

it does get to the point for some that they don't know the difference, they need to be smacked back into reality(no stupid don't get violent) and if it's done it'll make it normal again. or maybe they need to quit as addiction can cause the mind to do strange things..

i've noticed that and i can't seem to help but laugh. yes, i know that some people may believe that they're actually that, but it's just ridiculous to me. i do believe in vampires or else i wouldn't go to this site, but i don't believe that some of these people are what they say. honestly, i don't believe that you need to be a big monster in order to scare people off, but as long as your consistant and you say something that's believable (even if it is false) then you have a better chance of having people scared of you than being this unbelievable monster

If you drink more then 2 pints of blood in I think 24- 48 hours it eats away at your stomach wall allowing your stomach acid to eat you from the inside out.

Yeah, blood drinking is real. I believe vampires are real. not the shape-shifting, murdering, raping, flying, undead creature of the night, but people that are able to take energy from others in some way. I know that to be true. But not what some of these people claim to be or do.

i agree, vampires are not necessarily the bat-turning, mist changing, cape rendering, stereotypical view of things, check my profile for my views on vampires

What is 'real' and what is 'fantasy'? One could argue that everyone is trapped in fantasy...How do you really know what is real?...This reality could be one collective fantasy, with slight variations, just to get each mind to believe...What might be fantasy to one mind, can be very real to many others...Just because you have not seen or believe something, doesn't mean it's not very real to many others...

Some live on the edge of both worlds. Some seek definition of what and who they are, unknowling going deeper into their mists, making themselves somewhat known to every other but themselves.
Others find here to talk themselves 'out' of things-- out of their rut, out of their confusion, and most of all their 'broom/vamp' closets.
Other just seek to belong somewhere, and vampirefreaks just doesn't cut it anymore.

I am truly glad that your post got a better responce than mine. I also asked the same question. This world of fantasy most live in is really disturbing to me but we all live in a fantasy at some point in our lives. The Lasombra part is great. Do people really think that we are that stupid as to believe things like that? However, as to the drinking of blood, I am a donor and I love the fact that my blood "energy" is appreciated enough to have someone feed off me. Unless you are or have been a donor, the concept is hard to understand. We are the people that help keep your race alive. Like I said, help keep.

I've noticed this as well, but at the same time some people say things just to see what kind of reaction they will receive from others. My opinion is that while their behavior may seem strange to me, I cannot judge them because if they are happy then I will be happy for them.

I agree with VampyricRose. I want to add that I think fantasy is fine as long as it doesn't carry on into your real life. Meaning when certain people who believe certain things start going around in the real world telling everyone that they are truly vampiric,werewolf, zombies who live on flesh they can seriously end up being 302ed and in the mental ward. Fantasy is great if it is done in a health way but when it starts to get to the point where you are living the fantasy it can become very dangerous.

Once or twice I do find myself starting to get lost in the fantisy. So to keep this from happening I just write short stories every once in a while and then I can keep in touch with reality. By writing things down they stay in the pages and I stay sane. But yes I do think some people are TOO lost in the fantisy world.

we can have his discussion over an over again. We are on a vampire styled community site and there is bound to be outlandish comments on here. it is when the person gets carried away that it gets really obnoxious. Its really funny.. where i live we have a vampire meet group that meets once a month and in person face to face i get the, " I am immortal " claims from certain people and i have learned to shrug them off. it is like this we cant stop them from posting it.. the only way to stop it, is to ignore it. if we give attention to those seeking it, we are just feeding their delusions.

I have had my share of crazy people aswell on this site. I've had people before claiming to be either hellspawn or necronamacers and threaten to unleash demons on me. Only thing I can sit there and do is laugh and say *wtf*. Zuber you was right internet is where you can exscape from your boring everyday life. But thing is half these people take it seriously and live it out in there everyday lives. I've had a fight on her over the subject empress with my othr half. It spilled out into a big dispute untill I had to remind myself its just a site. One thing I tend to think happens on this site. Is problems or disputes that spill over into every day life. I personally don't think of this as a fantasy site and just live and interact the same here as I do in every day life.

Some may in fact be so lost in it that it becomes their "real life"...like it's all that they live for...they lose touch with reality, but not for no reason, I'm sure...

Reason 1: They're crazy.

Reason 2: Their own life is just to realistic for them, it's not satisfying enough. They like to feel special and needed somewhere, so of course, they're pulled deep into it.

Reason 3: Their life seems too hard to handle, which may seem the same as reason 2, but what I mean is different on many levels. Reason 2 suggests they're bored or whatever. Reason 3, this one, suggests they are abused or mistreated...

Once again, I ramble, but this is my opinion...

We all need fantasy in our lives be it with a partner or by ourselves...there are those of us who have costumes and go to conventions and enjoy ourselves. As with the goth and vampire clubs...go with the fantasy, but when it is over and you go outside, be one with reality!

It seems to me that yes people do get lost in the fantasy and do not witness the actuality of what's real. Some people like to pretend their lives then actually live them. I'm not saying this is everyone but some people are like that. Others on here are very intelligent and I have met quite a few of them. They have their own thoughts about things and their opinions are outstanding.

I started a thread about six months ago on the same issue... I have what I wrote at the bottom of my profile if you want a read.

I think that Hollywood is what a lot of people want to be, and they get awfully defensive when anyone tries to tell them otherwise.

People will always want to be this way. Just let them.

that's a very extreme thing for someone to have said (in reply to initial post, this is a long thread, so I didn't read it all). I have vampyric tendacies, maybe enough to call myself a vampire. I also believe in a lot of wiccan things. but to be a vampire, werewolf, witch, and zombie?! that's delusional... the people here that say they're thousands of years old, are delusional as well! I believe in Reincarnation, but that's extreme.

yes, some do tend to get too cought up in fantasy but some also do it for attention. (No offense to any of you.) Some just can't help themselves, and some... just don't want too

Who are any of us to judge what is reality and what is fantasy. Someone else said just because it isn’t our reality it doesn’t mean it isn’t there’s. When does something stop being fantasy and become reality. A lot of people would argue that the thought of any real vampire is fantasy. While others would say it’s most defiantly true. Just because you can not prove that something is real can you prove that its not? I personally don’t think a lot of what some people say is “my reality” but I also know what I believe to be reality for me isn’t real to a lot of others.

I agree!! What's reality for some may be fantasy for others. And vice versa. I don't like people judging me, so I try to make it a point not to judge others. I've met some interesting people in my life, all who believed something different.

I agree with not judging people and with the fact that reality7s definition is given by the majority, but what will you do when the 2reality" of one or his fantasy becomes a hazard for the others and his actions are dangerous and violnt? Will be any tolerance then?

hey,
I've only been here but for about a week or two and i think that some people just dont know the difference between whats real and whats not... sure it's all fun to say your a vampire, but then again they dont even know the definition or what a vampire really is... it's the same things with goths... they dont even know what it is! But yet they go called themselves goth, I just think some people need a reality check on what things really are!

Well yea some people do take it to far.... Some people actually believe the myths of coffins and imortality and take it way to far..... But that is just how some people live.... People's brains act differently in order to protect oneself from harm..... Some people will use humor and for others it could be there own fantasy world were they are the vampire/werewolf/zombie who feasts on the village children. To me it is totaly understandable and it happens everywhere.... Take Dungeons and Dragons for example.... Some take it far enough to actually go kill someone.... But that is how their mind protects them from a real world that I personally think is a little more messed up than a little bit of fantasy..... I am not agreeing with it but I am also not saying it is wrong..... Sorry if I offended anyone with what I just said.

it is a way for them to feel powerful, but the funny part is that they end up just looking foolish. it's like a profile i saw the other day, warning others not to mess with them, because they would hunt us down...etc... it's either funny or it's pretty sad. i guess this kind of thing is somewhat inevitable when children are allowed to act like vampires... ok, i decided it's mostly funny. hehehe

it pisses me off thats what it does. sure, there are the few that truly believe. whatever. good for them i guess. and there are those that are simply role playing. thats awesome when done properly( its done properly when everyone knows you are role playing and it has to be worded right). But those that say things like "im a vampire. i love to suck your blood and im going to kill you" just to say it, piss me off. For one thing it your going to lye, because to say something and not actually believe it is exacly that (excluding role playing becasue everyone knows its fake.) then do some research. make it believeable. and secondly your just an idoit for lying. i know someone who is an attentionwhore. lyes about everything and anything... so glad he doesnt know aobut this site. but yeah thats my point of view.....

I think reality has it's place, and I think that maybe here it shouldn't be a requirement.
While yes, it can be very annoying talking to someone that is completley off the freaky scale. But at the same time remember people not only come here to be with others that enjoy the darker side of life, they also hope that they are within a group that maybe understand what it feels like to be misunderstood.
Don't judge these people, there is nothing wrong with playing out a fantasy, they just have to find the right person to let it out on.
I believe that the diverse range of unique personalities adds a little flair to this site, just remember, don't be nasty, just move on, and remember the name so if you come across them again, you know what to expect.
Loosen up, enjoy the culture, let people be their own person, they have to wear the burden in the end.

Yes, people tend to get lost in fantasy. It is, however, for a very good reason. The world today is too much for some to handle, so they hide away in anything they can find. I've seen people totally conviced they were a vampire/zombie/werewolf/imp but nobody needs to give them a reality check. On the outside we can be completely "lost" to other people as well. People who don't understand vampyres, or "goths" call us lost as well. However, nobody likes to be confronted about it.

So much accumulated experience in this thread...

I think anyone who has come across this thread is sure to learn alot about the barrier between what is real and fantasy.

Of course,... there is something I don't understand.

I don't understand it when people claim things... such as they being a half vampyre, half angel, half demon, and their cousin being a werewolf, and their oldest child being of faire-blood, and their half-brother is a psy-vampire, and HIS father is a black dragon, and his grandson is a born incubus,... perhaps with a +3 bonus in stamina, Heavy Armor Proficiency, a +4 Battleaxe of the Wolf, and a +55 bonus in bullshitry!

I mean seriously! They must really have some f*cked up family reunions. I'd really hate to be THEIR neighbor,...
