Driving through Downtown LA, and I've just got to say that there are only two times where Downtown is beautiful, and both of those are where the city is viewed from a distance. The first being sunset during autumn/winter, where you get those firey hues of red and orange and the city skyline is in silhouette. There's a great spot off the 57 in San Dimas, right on the hiking trails, that will give you the perfect view. The second being night, preferably between 3-5 in the morning, when everything's closed, but the lights are on and twinkling in that darkness.
Any other time and the city is gross. Especially when you're driving through it. I used to love LA, but now it's just overrun with the unhoused and garbage, and the crime rate is far higher than I'm comfortable with. There's nothing redeeming about it.
I really don't understand why people think they can lay claim to a theme for profiles or Covens. Like, you can't. If I wanted to make a Nightmare Before Christmas profile that focused purely on Sally or I wanted to make a profile themed after the grim reaper, or fuck, if I wanted to do another Halo theme, I can. And no one could stop me from doing so. Do you know how many people have Enlightenment in their Coven names now? Should I throw a big fit because my Coven from years ago was the first to be named Enlightenment and should therefore be the only Coven on VR built around that theme? It's ridiculous. Until someone rips off nearly your entire profile, sometimes word for word, you don't get to whine. And even then, there's nothing anyone can do about it. You just have to accept it. You do not get to own a certain theme here. You don't get to bully people who do make the same theme as you into changing theirs. You just don't.
Just a friendly reminder that the Stream is heald to the same nudity policy as the rest of VR. That means no genitals and no visable nipples on women. Take a closer look at the images you are posting to make sure they fall within the guidelines.
Looking for a reason to be active on my alt account, so I'm looking for a new Society to put it into. It's currently a level 30, though given an incentive to be on it, I can definitely raise the level on it in no time.
So... I just found out a friend passed away on Monday. I'm almost certain she checked out on her own terms, though I don't officially know the cause of death. She was beautiful, chaotic, amazing, and inspiring. But, she was also suffering so much with a lot of personal demons. I thought she was doing okay, but you know what they say about people and depression, sometimes you just don't know. It's a shock for a lot of us. Whatever happened, I hope that she's at peace now.
I'm not going to sit here and tell you what a good job you're doing by admitting your mistakes. Because, honestly, I've read one too many of those exact journals from you in the last few years. Always apologizing, always saying you were wrong, and then always deleting them. You don't get to berate women. You don't get to verbally abuse them. I'm sorry, but you don't. That is not acceptable whether you're drunk or sober. It's the exact reason I told you to stop talking to me. I don't need someone in my life, someone I'm trying to actually be friends with, texting me when drunk, telling me they love me, and then calling me all the shittiest names in the book because I would not say it back. That's not a friend. That's not a person I want to associate with. And you did this shit when I was mourning the loss of my grandmother. When I was mourning multiple losses. And I let you back. I figured it had to be a once off, but it wasn't. You did this time and time again. So, no. You're not a big man just because you wrote a journal you'll likely wind up deleting soon. You're not a big man because you acknowledge that you have a problem and then do absolutely nothing to fix that problem. You're a small person who treats women like shit. Women who did nothing to you outside of try to be your friend.
You can't even begin to fathom how many people I've lost over the years. How many people I lost in just the last decade alone. So yeah, I can safely say I know death pretty intimately. I know depression even more intimately, since I have been suffering with it pretty much my entire life. Don't you dare come at me with the bullshit that I don't know the pain of loss. That I am not all too familiar with the darkness.
You are not bettering yourself. Your comments in my journal have proven that. Your comments in people's honor has proven that. You are a horrible person. And you're putting it on display for all of VR.
I personally don't give a shit who you're friends with. But you've come to me bitching about certain members, only to go back and be buddies with them the next day. It's what you do. So, whatever. Be their friend, I don't care. But don't fucking preach about change and growth when you constantly fall back into your old patterns.
I don't want to give you honor, and in case you're too dense to realize it, I don't have you blocked. It's easier to just let you make a complete and utter fool of yourself than it is to hit every one of your accounts.
Honestly you make a good liar lol I have proof of you giving my accounts honor than taking it away you say you want me to stop playing these games how about you need to learn to grow up first secondly I dont have fantasies with immortalxkiss you both twits can die in a hole for all I care and get hit by a buss just like you wished illness on me Karma will come around the corner for your illnesses very shortly
This is just a friendly reminder to everyone, as Moonie has stated: member disputes do not belong in the Stream. Just like the other public social aspects of VR, the Stream is moderated and held to the same rules.
Just a friendly reminder I was being funny, you had the dispute, and putting it in your journal proves it. Didn't you say to yourself you posted a thing that is funny to you, it was never personal hun? so it's adults here and stops making stuff out to be more than they are.
Free speech is not like I was calling anyone out by name.
I'm not going to argue with you. The issue has been explained to you, nothing more needs to be said about it. If you choose to ignore my warning, you will have to face the consequences. This goes for every member of Vampire Rave, I am not just focusing on you.
Immortalxkiss let's face it you do enjoy arguing with every member on Vampire Rave that you think everyone revolves around your world
but let have you know this the world does not revolve around you. You revolve around the world
Have a nice or not that's all up to you we know the rules of VR and TOS Guidelines this is just another drama dispute by the way Thana been posting these images long before your hateful behavior ego system that you need to get under control this is your final warning.
The Dark Network operates under a Status System. There are more than 100 levels. The higher your level the more power you have on the site. For a full listing of the Status Levels (and the number of Vampire Rave members at each level) click here.
Advancement
When you sign up for a free Vampire Rave account, the system tracks your site usage. It keeps track of how many pages you've viewed and how much time you've spent here. As you spend more time here your status increases. A number of things are taken into consideration. Your overall status is based upon the following:
50% is based upon your Time Spent
50% is based upon your Pages Viewed
These two statistics form your Base Score. Bonuses and Penalties are then applied to your Base Score, forming your Total Score. Your Total Score is your Vampire Rave Status Level.
Bonuses
There are 12 Bonuses. 5 of these can be negative (a Penalty) and can adversely affect your Total Score.
Ratings
This Bonus can range from 0% to 5%. It takes into account the total number of things you have rated.
Database
This Bonus can range from 0% to 10%. It takes into account the total number of entries you've added to the database.
Forum
This Bonus can range from 0% to 5%. It takes into account the total number of public forum posts you've made.
Profile
This Bonus can range from -3% to 3%. It is based on your Profile rating. If you have not set a Profile up, your Profile rating is zero and this Bonus will be -3%. Creating a Profile and getting it favorably rated is one of the quickest things your can do as a new member to increase your Total Score.
Journal
This Bonus can range from 0% to 3%. It takes into account how many members have marked your Journal as a favorite.
Friend
This Bonus can range from -3% to 3%. It takes into account how many friend lists you are on. It does NOT take into account how many members YOU have marked as a friend. Friend lists on the Dark Network are one-way in nature. If you mark someone as a friend they may or may not mark you as a friend in return. Due to this one-way relationship, the number of members who have marked you as a friend is directly correlated to how well you are liked on The Dark Network.
Blocked
This is a pure Penalty, as the value of this Penalty can only range from -3% to 0%. This penalty measures how many members have blocked you, and therefore, how much you are disliked.
Overblock
This is a pure Penalty. The value is either -10% or 0%. This penalty measures how many members you have blocked. If you have blocked more than 25 members you are assessed this penalty.
Society
This is an all or nothing 1% bonus. If you are in a Vampire Rave Society and have posted to your Society Forum in the past 48 hours, you're awarded this bonus.
Mark
This bonus can only have values of -10%, -5%, 0%, 5%, 10%, or 15%. Marks are a function of Vampire Rave Societies and are more fully covered on the Vampire Rave Society FAQ.
Mentor
This is an all or nothing 1% bonus. If a Dark Network Mentor is mentoring you, you're awarded this bonus.
Referral
One of the higher bonuses, this bonus can range from 0% to 15%. It takes into account how many members you've referred to The Dark Network.
For a more complete overview of the Dark Network Status System, Bonuses and Penalties, and how they are applied, please refer to the Vampire Rave Manual, chapter Status System.
Whenever you log into the Dark Network you Status is automatically updated. Additionally, you can manually update your Status every 10 minutes via the Update Your Status page.
A commonly asked question, is How much time do I have to spend on the site to advance to level _______ ?
There is no one answer to this question. The Dark Network Status System is very complex. This means where one user at a certain level viewed X number of pages to advance to level X, another user may require more or less page views to reach the same level. Bonuses and Penalties have very large impacts on your Total Score. If you spend more time rating, posting to the Forum, and rating Database entries your Status will climb much quicker than another member who has done none of these things, but who has spent more time on the site.
There is no cap to the Status System. Levels continue on indefinitely.
Certain members have an administrative status. This status is in addition to their site status. These members manage Vampire Rave.
Acolyte
Acolyte's are Vampire Rave members who have agreed to assist new members with site questions or problems. If you have a question, submit it via the help page and an Acolyte will respond.
If you are interested in becoming an Acolyte, you can apply at Dark Network site Vampire Rave. You must be at least level 65 to apply.
Dominar
A Dominar is a Forum and Chat Administrator. Dominar's are appointed by The Prince.
Procurator
A Procurator assists in the management of the Vampire Rave Database. Procurator's are appointed by The Prince.
Sentoran
A Sentoran is a Profile, Portfolio, and Journal Administrator. Sentoran's are appointed by The Prince.
Consul
A Consul is a special, reserved position. It is not a position of ascendency. In most cases, a Consul is a former Vampire Rave Administrator. A Consul has all powers of Acolyte, Dominar, Procurator, and Sentoran. Consul's are appointed by The Prince.
Peacekeeper and Regent
On most Dark Network sites these positions are the same. On Vampire Rave, these positions have different powers. A Peacekeeper is known as a Master Vampire on Vampire Rave. Master Vampires run Vampire Rave Houses. Vampire Rave Regents administer Vampire Rave Covens. Each are appointed by The Prince.
The Hand of the Prince
Cartomancer The Hand is the top Administrator and reports directly to the Prince. In the absence of the Prince, the Hand makes ruling decisions. In the absence of the Prince, the Hand IS the Prince.
You clearly don't know the rules or the ToS, considering you constantly say people are breaking them when they are not, myself included. I've been a member and an Admin here longer than you've been a member, so I think I know what I'm talking about. But good try.
LOL you're such a sore loser and yet here I still win I don't give a shit about you so shut the fuck up why don't ya? Oh I know you don't know how to it doesn't matter who has been on Vampire Rave the longest he said she said bullshit what are you fucking 2?
The rules are shown on the site and yet they are outdated you retard
Tell me this Immy if you been on this site for so goddam long Why don't you tell Cancer to get on his ass and start updating the manual with the new Stream take this to consideration
"I don't give a shit about you, but I'm totally going to obsessively comment in your journal showing everyone on VR just how fucked up a human being I am."
Yup.
Abide by the rules, kids. If you don't, there will be consequences.

I've tried giving you advice when you'd come to me about Cat. I really tried on more than one occasion to be nice to you. And every single time you would revert back to who you were before. So, forgive me if I'm tired of your bullshit games and want nothing to do with you. You blame me for things I had no influence on such as your relationship with Tony. You claimed I've plotted to kill you. Like, for real. I don't know what your issue is, but after so many attempts at helping you better yourself, I'm pretty content letting you be exactly who you are, who you've always been.
It's not like I only pick on you, but you do have a habit of inserting yourself into issues that don't concern you, such as my issues with Cat and Matthew. I don't aim to single you out, I don't aim to solely pick on you. It just happens that you talk a lot of bullshit, so you make yourself an easy target.

I don't try to make myself an easy target you just choose me as an easy target so you can take advantage of that time and time again you will always bully me between things for weeks you say it's every other day but it's legit a lie and it's every day
you seem to care a lot about cat and Matthew
I single you out because I get sick of your bullshit as well not to mention we all get sick of each other?
it's a thing we all got the same emotions in different places at different times
Well Tony told me you had an influence on it and the same with my family they watched you do what you do they are all on here they see everything what was it Friday night that tony decided to try and starve me and kill me that way because I'm hypoglycemia
Yes I will always be who I'm and so will you so don't be playing that card on me you never walked my entire life or shoes ever since I was 4 you didn't know me then and you never know what happened to me and I already know you won't even care to ask what happen to me about my 4-year-old little self because I know you don't give a fuck because you're blinded being blinded is a statement
before you started drama with me I was happily playing music if you let me be me and let me post my music my music is never about you if you think it is I think you really do need help

Your right, I care a hell of a lot about Matthew. We were friends for nearly as long as I've been a member of this site. We dated for years. We were fucking engaged at one point. And even if it was us just being stupid kids, it was real. So yeah, I love that man more than most people. But, that's between Matthew and I, and Cat, I suppose. You had no right jumping in the way you did on an issue that had literally nothing to do with you. Absolutely nothing. That is an issue for myself, Matthew, and Cat to deal with. Not you.
I don't know what you think Tony and I talked about or what's been told to you, but I never once suggested that he starve you. I only ever tried to get him to see reason and to get off this stupid site to spend time with you in person, since you were living together. I only ever tried to get him to be there with you, to have a real relationship with you.
I tried giving you advice. I tried being there for you. You say I play the victim, but I don't. You sure like to, though.
You're right, I don't know you. But you also don't know me. You don't know what I've been through in my life. You know nothing outside of what little I post in my journal. So don't pull that shit with me. Neither of us knows the other. And as I don't have an interest in getting to know you at this point, you have no interest in getting to know me, either.
I don't care what you post. If you want to post your music, go for it. Post all the music you wish. Contrary to what you may believe, I really don't care what you do. I don't follow your every move. But, as I said, you make yourself an easy target. And then, even after I dropped the issue, you try to keep it going with the journals and the comments and the negative honor and blocks. I don't retaliate because, and I cannot stress this enough, I don't care. I write a stupid journal and then I'm done with it. You constantly need to pile on and on. And you hit me with the name calling. I don't call you a bitch, I don't call you a cunt unless you've thrown that insult at me first. I try not to call you anything at all, but much like another certain someone, you have to hit below the belt. You have to call me a whore, a bitch, and whatever else. That's the difference between you and I. I don't bring up your personal life, I don't wish for your relationships to fail. But you sure do.
Grow up, Julie. That's the advice I have for you. Just grow up.
Take it or leave it, I honestly don't care.

Since you blocked me again before I could send this.
I never thought you were going to "steal my man." One, my partner is not on this site and he would never join. Two, you inserted yourself into the issue with all the comments you made on the journal entry. You did that. I didn't drag you into ito, I didn't force you to say the things you said. You did that on your own.
As for you and Tony, outside of the few messages we sent to one another, I don't know what your life together was like. I believe you when you say he tried to starve you, but I had nothing to do with that. I had nothing to do with any of it. I'm on the opposite side If the country, I had no influence on your relationship.
The biggest sign growth is action. If you've grown, good. I'm honestly glad. We will all be better if we continue to be better people. And you're right, I'm not perfect. But I have never claimed to be. And I own up to my mistakes.
Be better, Julie. I really hope you're serious about that. But, you've told me you were going to try to be better, to cut Cat out of your life before, yet you fell back into your old self. So forgive me if I don't necessarily believe you. Show me. Show everyone. Show yourself. That's the most important part. Be better for no one else but yourself.
I had hoped you were serious about the personal growth part, but as usual, you never are. And, frankly, I'm done trying, I'm done playing nice. Don't come whining to me, saying that I need you, that I'm bullying you. I need nothing from you. You are who you are, and that's not someone I want to associate with. You do you, but please refrain from coming at me with your bullshit.
This is the end of it. Write your journals, call me all the names you'd like, bitch to everyone about what a horrible person I am. But, I've tried to be your friend and as I said, every time I did, that effort was thrown back in my face.
EVERYONE NEEDS TO BLOCK IMMORTALXKISS SHES TRYTING TO GET ME TO LEAVE MY ALLAINCE BECAUSE THIS BITCH IS JEALOUS AS FUCK AND SHE BROUGHT CAT AND MATHEW UP IN HER JOURNAL WHICH IS AGAINST TOS VILIONATIONS

Well, that lasted all of five minutes. Haha. I wish it was surprising, but it isn't. Not in the least.
"In any given moment, we have two choices: step forward into growth or step backward into safety.” - Abraham Maslow
I wish you all the best if growth is what you truly desire. We can always do with some self-improvement, I am not exempt from that.
Move forward, don't fall back into what's familiar, what's safe. You'll never become a better person if you constantly fall back into old patterns, old friend groups. Only you know what's best for you, but, honestly, if change is what you seek, I hope you make it happen.
You know, I'm not one to wish ill on people, but I kinda wish they'd get hit by a bus.
It's Independence Day, and I've never given less of a fuck about it, with the state that the United States is currently in. Celebrating anything to do with America right now is a goddamn joke.
Also, they, as in more than one person. Jesus. If you want full disclosure as to whom I meant, it's the Justices of the Supreme Court who voted to do away with Roe v. Wade, because for me, they have made America feel like someplace hostile, not like the home its supposed to be.
God, don't assume I write everything about you.

And again. One day on, one day off. This is the most idiotic game, and it's getting pretty tiring.
This game you constantly play is pretty fucking dumb. Am I supposed to give a fuck if you block me with all your accounts? Because darlin', I don't. My life doesn't revolve around this site, being dragged down a level or two isn't going to kill me.
Did I say I had an issue with VR? No. But I know you can't comprehend what you read. Your game, this game you play of blocking me and unblocking me every other day, is stupid as fuck. It's what you do. It has nothing to do with VR as a whole.
I always find it so insanely weird when people I don't know list me as their referral. I mean, I'll take the points I guess, but it's super weird.
It's like, what shit are you about to start and drag me into? Or who will be stupid enough to assume this is an account owned by me where I'm trying to "hide" or whatever?
I'm not going to sit here and name off my accounts. That's fucking stupid. But you can pretty easily tell if an account is mine by the way it's written. I don't dumb myself down to try and deceive people. That would involve a whole level of care and patience to spend time here that I just can't muster anymore.
