PLEASE READ: Q Policies + Coming Updates / Major Name Embeds (Open Discussion)

I would debate powerful titles being gate locked on the forum level. I do very much enjoy the forum, but we gotta be honest, theres like a couple dozen people literally treating this forum like reddit, circle jerking each other and spamming nonsense 24/7

One major criteria should be not making a nuisance of themselves in the Support. Sending too many tickets complaining or shouting at the support staff.

That should end in an automatic disqualification.

I know that will only make toxic people more polite but hopefully it will end up in fake it till you make it lol.

That’s just one criteria of course. Plenty of good points given here by others.

I vote to offer name embedded titles, name embedded titles in one’s voice, AND the regular ones with no name embedded.

Why do I vote keeping the regular ones as well?

I’m aware this is an international community. For those of us in the USA, UK, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and a number of European countries, a 5, 10, or 15 USD increase in price is probably no big deal. However with exchange rates as they can be, such a “minor” price increase might not be minor in some countries. There are also people on here who are likely at university or college, and money can be tight, and the usual thought of “save money by not going to bars and drinking” might not be the issue.

So I vote keep the regular ones as a budget option.

Now as for Terminus and Terminus Squared.

What about having those in a similar category as “testers”?

There are a group of people who have tested products, and there must be a way they got screened in to do so.

How are people chosen to be testers, and how might those criteria apply to Terminus style titles? (rhetorical question)

Also perhaps limit Terminus via time or event. For example if a person has one Terminus title, they must use it for 90 days while keeping a journal (open or restricted/hidden). After which, perhaps they could get a second Terminus title to use. As for examples of events, the person using a Terminus title continues to follow the guidelines, achieve congruently with the objectives, and experience minimal reconciliation.

@Fire @SaintSovereign

You said that name embedding would prevent pirates from benefiting from titles with the wrong name. But would it also work as a safeguard for others? Meaning I could listen to my subliminals with name embedding and my fiancee present and she wouldn’t feel it negatively?
Or would it still fill the processing queue and could cause recon?

I think subclub should not exaggerate the whole thing and put customers off.
Especially new customers. Warnings in the instructions should be enough.
In the end, everyone does what they think is right and possible barriers are somehow circumvented.

I find it illogical to think about terminus anyway, when the majority can’t even cope with the 15 minutes of a normal zp title. In times of microloops, it makes no sense to me to make the subs even stronger.

I think the subs are very mature and balanced. You have every opportunity to positively influence your life with the available technology.
The integration of the name also strengthens the subs and I think it’s a good idea and it further enhances the major titles.

The individualisation of the major titles also solves some problems and limits the circle of users because they have to use their real name. This brings more transparency.

Difficult and problematic people are left behind. At least a lot of illegal behaviour no longer makes sense.

I’m allergic to work. I just started to feel itchy just thinking about this :wink:

There are plenty of people here who can handle full loops. Terminus (both versions) might not be for everyone. But there are people here who handle them just fine.

bad idea, IMHO. some of us prefer offline journaling. me myself don’t journal at all: I’m running my 10th straight cycle of Index Gate, and I don’t need a journal, because I can obviously see I’m getting better everyday with IG in terms of IT.

I more than agree with everything you said else, though.

That’s a good point. Some prefer a voice diary and handwritten journals are a bit more effective than typed ones.

It would be IMO best to concentrate on measuring and not on handing out additional tasks to customers.

I’ve done full loops of DRR and QL recently.

I’m a glutton for punishment apparently

I have a thought…

What I am thinking about is how do I know which Terminus power level I can tolerate for a major title, when I can only really try terminus and T2 in Ascension Chamber, or in a custom which already have a heavier load?

Could one possible approach be to, initially, offer one major title (perhaps Genesis?) in T/T2 so people can measure how much unlimited power they can handle? And then either release more titles to the public, or add some sort of gatekeeping system?

Just a thought.

It probably will also depend on the title itself.
Dragon Reborn might be more intense for some than Ascension.
So therefore no general statement about Terminus possible

I agree that psychological evaluation is invasive and would require consent forms. So perhaps after each purchase, a voluntary survey is prompted. Asking key questions picked from metric analysis that could flag or pass a buyer.

Discovering trends that flag “at risk” users could also prove beneficial. For example, buyers that shout at reps could be linked to hostile behavior in threads, which could be linked to deviant behavior in life. It would have to be determined what personality traits and to what percentage we’re looking for here, and subtle ways of extracting and analyzing the data

What is even the point of Termunus/² for most users?
In the times when most tend to use shorter loops, why do we need to have a format that puts more information in 3 minutes when you could easily run it for 6, 9 or 15 minutes?

When people had to run subs for 8 hours a day, that was a nice add on, but now?

@AnswerGroup Am I missing some points of importance?

The delicate part is, people who are deviant come to these resources for help. So perhaps if a buyer is “flagged” requiring a rehabilitation program that includes particular subs and a probationary period on the forum

After Major Name, I hope we get a new mask. I’ve been waiting for that thunder mask for a long time. I get a feeling it might be even longer.

A new mask would be awesome.

Please don’t waste your time on a new mask, I don’t think there will be a return on invest except if you upsell the mask.

But in my opinion time is best allocated to product generation and supporting people using the subs right

I had a dream that SC released an app where you could generate 2-title customs on the fly, with different musical and nature sound masks, for free lmaoo

Even in the dream I could hardly believe it
