kinda impossible as the discord only has a few hundred users and the forum only has a few thousand

If each user submits 100 responses, you got it

What’s with the puzzle thing?
7:37 AM
Also, it’d be nice if you could include a part in your questionnaire that asked about periods of time the tulpa may not actually have been a tulpa.

@kw hey I have a question whether or not you're equipped to answer it
6:05 PM
what does the second one mean
Avatar
Ruethus the Silver Sorceror 6/17/2018 6:05 PM
The host receiving input from their senses
Avatar
do I put half the time because Lumi fronts half the time, or little time for the bits of our imposition/talking?
Avatar
Ruethus the Silver Sorceror 6/17/2018 6:06 PM
Since it can be rerouted to other entities
Avatar
because like.. technically since he fronts half the time he's aware of the senses half the time at least, but idk if it specifically wants to not include that or something
6:09 PM
"How often does your tulpa address you while you're focused on a different task?" "Rarely, only when they’re doing something that allows them to daydream" This seems like a typo too, sounds like it's the tulpa daydreaming but isn't it the host?
Avatar
I believe the question is whether or not the host, if switched out, is paying attention to the senses.
6:09 PM
Or, how much they are.
Avatar
"As opposed to being switched out/in wonderland/unaware." is under it
Avatar
That doesn't seem like it makes any sense whatsoever, then.
Avatar
Ruethus the Silver Sorceror 6/17/2018 6:10 PM
When the host is not actively piloting the body, do they receive its sensory input?
6:10 PM
And the frequency of that occurring is what the question is asking
Avatar
the only thing I can think is it's accounting for co-fronting
6:11 PM
mixing the one before it would show how often the host/tulpas co-front
6:11 PM
but that's literally it and they could've just asked that directly so it probably doesn't mean that
6:11 PM
yeah but.. that's still him being switched out
6:12 PM
he's either switched out, or switched in and experiencing ALL the input
6:12 PM
so do I put All, Half, or Little ??/
6:12 PM
I'm so confused
Avatar
Ruethus the Silver Sorceror 6/17/2018 6:12 PM
Some of the time sounds most accurate (edited)
Avatar
oh wait, mixed with the last question, I was thinking of them reversed (because they kinda are) the first one specifically asks about control of the body, as in possibly like never even though you're fronting because tulpa possesses a lot the second one is how often the host is aware at all, so yeah I guess it just kinda accounts for co-fronting or possession
6:20 PM
vos wasn't sure either but I think I get it now (edited)
6:25 PM
Winter wasn't sure either, so now I don't know if I just confused myself and it's actually simple or if it's actually confusing to people lol

This guy on the Reddit thread.

Lots of questionable things on the census.
Avatar
I completed the census.
Avatar
As did I. I didn't like this one as much as the previous ones. There's a few odd questions and some things that don't make sense, specifically the questions that involve the answer "all the time." Those questions involved if you shared feelings with your tulpas and controlled them. If you answered "all the time" to any of those, you don't have a tulpa.
6:17 AM
On top of that, basing all of the progress on the first tulpa is silly. They should have focused on the most active tulpa. I'm the second tulpa and I can possess better than my sister, as well as actually switch.
6:18 AM
I feel like this shouldn't be the official census and that it needs to be redone with a bit more cleaner terms and redone stuff. I saw some people whining about it being very host-centric and I have no idea why that's such a problem.
Avatar
I wasn't here for any of the previous censuses, is this one particularly different from them?
Avatar
They've all been a bit weird, but this one really shows the state of the community in a negative light.
Avatar
It also kind of shows how uninformed the community is, ie the user that said tulpa.info is dead. It's certainly not as active as other Discords, sure, but at least it's not constant shitposting. If quality is over quantity, I'd feel like we'd be on top.
6:34 AM
.info is good as is, it's kind of like Tutorial Island on Runescape. You're there to get a hold of the ropes and then you're off on your adventure.
Avatar
Actually, all the time does apply to me

bduddy #Diana# 6/18/2018 6:38 AM
why are you conflating a random user from the Reddit thread to the census itself?
Avatar
>runescape barry is that you?

I don't switch with my tulpa

bduddy #Diana# 6/18/2018 6:38 AM
especially when he was talking about the IRC specifically?
Avatar
And we really only communicate via telepathy or whatever you wanna call it.
Avatar
bduddy #Diana# 6/18/2018 6:38 AM
and you should use a consistent rating scale whether every item makes sense or not.
Avatar
I didn't find any problems with the census but then again I'm not your average tulpa host either >.>
Avatar
I'm using the user as an example, I'm not mixing it with the census itself. I do admit I went off on a tangent, which I apologize for.
6:43 AM
Suppose that I'm tired of misinformation about communities and methods/techniques that have been going around. Guess I'm just a bit grumpy tonight.
Avatar
bduddy #Diana# 6/18/2018 6:44 AM
he did also say the IRC was dead, not tulpa.info was dead.
Avatar
A slash in-between tulpa.info and the IRC channel essentially lumps them together. The IRC is certainly dead though.
Avatar
When I went and looked at the census the forum was split from the IRC. That may have been updated after the criticism, though
Avatar
I think Tulpa Tavern may be significant enough of a server to warrant its own option
Avatar
Is that the real survey?
1:06 PM
It appeared unannounced, was advertised nowhere, and was not posted by a mod.
Avatar
It was posted by a mod in #announcements
1:07 PM
No
1:07 PM
An admin
Avatar
Anyhow, the survey is crap due to its extraordinarily prejudicial use of the word personality.
1:08 PM
Probably not written by a tulpa.
Avatar
I don't like how host-centric it is
1:09 PM
Makes it a bit awkward bc my host isn't around anymore
Avatar
Yep.
1:28 PM
There seems to be no part where a tulpa is supposed to give any answers at all.
1:28 PM
Which is stupid.
Avatar
OMG this census is horribly incomplete.
1:32 PM
I'd post on reddit, but I'd basically just be yelling at the moderators and the person who created the survey.
1:32 PM
I am so angry right now.
Avatar
What else should it include
Avatar
How about a question about tulpa sexual orientation.
1:33 PM
How about the tulpa's religion.
1:33 PM
How about a question about personality differences.
1:34 PM
How about a question about non-tulpa thoughtforms.
Avatar
It did have questions about tulpas sexual orientation
Avatar
@Tulpabug , I thought the same when it came to the word "personality."
Avatar
Deleted User 6/18/2018 1:54 PM
Ye, I'm sure there was a question about sexual orientation.
1:55 PM
There definitely was.
Avatar
I didn't answer because I couldn't be bothered surveying my whole system about that stuff
Avatar
Deleted User 6/18/2018 2:05 PM
I was wondering for a while if I'm homo or bi.
Avatar
Oops, the survey has been unpinned.
2:11 PM
Maybe I should just write a survey.
Avatar
I just realized that we may be talking about two different surveys
Avatar
Go for it, Tulpabug.
Avatar
I've been talking about the one posted in #announcements
2:12 PM
I didn't notice someone in posted a reddit one in this channel
Avatar
The one in the #announcements is the Reddit one.
Avatar
Yeah it's same.
Avatar
We filled it out, but it had a lot of questionable stuff.
Avatar
There seems to be no one who disagrees.

Some of the responses to the thread hurt me internally, too. (edited)
