Raver Progression - For Dummies.
you start off as a wide eyed innocent child...
whether you be dressed in fun fur and neon colours.. or your grade school clothes and phat pants... you go for the new experience, the new music, the new people... then you have realizations about the drugs. Everyone is on them. So you should be too... *even if you haven't/don't do drugs...they've have ALWAYS been around you and your friends* after that...you submerse yourself into a genre... trancehead, junglist, hardcore, breaker, house fiend, gabba... and the genre becomes what you are... you are labeled because of your music.. *seem fair???* you've been raving for almost 6 months now. slowly...the aftereffects of the drugs begin to show.. the e makes you cranky and depressed. the k makes you slow and stupider. the jib makes you scabby and death like. the coke starts to fuck up your nose and throat...as would ANYTHING you've been snorting.. by the end of the year... you're rude. you're tired. you're worn out. you've become bitter to anyone that doesn't fit your ideal mold of what a person should be. you dismiss any ideas foreign to your own or your friends. you think people wearing the fun fur and neon colours are crazy and don't know what they're doing. you're a raver. that's more or less how it goes... you'll also reinvent yourself a few times....follow some trendy shit like a dog sniffing an ass....decided what's "cool" and what's not a few more times.. and then hopefully...before you land yourself in an ambulance... you quit the drugs and start pounding booze like there's no tomorrow slowly becoming an alcoholic and giving yourself insane amounts of liver damage every weekend... you will start to go to clubs...the 19+ room will become your haven.. then....you'll get up enough guts to say "fuck this" and leave the only social outlet you have.... at that point...you're either strong enough to stay away and better yourself.. or you get sucked back in after you've made your 3rd "I'm Leaving The Scene" thread on F&K..... and that's the jist. -F.

You forgot the part where they want to be a DJ and start buying records and turntables, mixer, etc. and try to spin their latest genre of music in their parents basements. :(
Cutting tress is bad, save the earth. You resouce waster! NEWS: Old school raver tries to enlighten other ravers with information that has been passed around for years that everyone else has already seen, a few are still left amused. I love it when people think they're old school.

Sweetie, I had this lifestyle before the partying community, STEREOTYPES, THE KIND I LIKE.
The beautiful thing about stereotypes is that most the time, people put them on you, and you don't go out to make yourself a stereotype. But goddamn, and I a jaded, better than thou kind of person, and I'll let you know that. STABBY, bitter, jaded, and only 19. "Yes.. raving made me bitter. Now I just go for the drugs." -S(tabby)-

god.
i'd hate to know you when you're 40. but judging by the attitude, i'm sure you'll have your face beaten in by the time you hit 25. unless....the only time you act like this big of a nasty bitch is when you're safely behind your computer, typing in all the foul words you could ever want to type. -F. ~fuck,cunt,bitch,slut,whore,ass,rim,chod a,dick,balls,pussy,cock~

Does that mean you're not going to dress up all in kandy and neon colors again?
What are you talking about Rawb, you mean this rant isn't really what ravers are supposed to be like? Damn, I was gonna move on to the next stage too... now I'm fucked.

i used to get caught up in explaining and defining where people are and where i am, but it really doesn't matter. it just ends up in bullshit posturing and excuses for everyones behaviour.
no more raver/ex-raver/philosopher/candykid/junglist/'breaker'/jibtech drama, please. it comes down to one question. "are you having fun?" sort accordingly.

I thought it was obvious that galaxies spin.
But then I might be the only geek here.

just stop giving ishkur all the credit when the attitudes and ideals in DJ Valtrex's original post have been around way before anybody on this board started "raving". it's like mythology, the first "state of the scene address" was probably a comment made by some kid years ago.
