That's the spirit of the original rave scene that I remember.

Good stuff, at least some true believers are left, instead
of all the fluffy bunny glostick trance listening wankers out there.

i realised the word PLUR was bullshit in my first year of raving

QUOTE(Stereo Tiger @ Apr 24 2006, 09:50 PM)

PLUR is like santa claus and the easter bunny. It's fun to believe in while it lasts, but eventually you have to grow up and find out the truth...

Ha ha :lol:

Yep - we sure have forgotten :lol:

Jupiter - if you had so much P and L and U and R you'd make peace, love everyone no matter what they say, unify with everyone's beliefs and respect them regardless...

Seriously tho. I'm with Kristen on this one. The word is long gone (way before I was raving) and dates back to the original Rush and Ark days most likely as I always hear they were the best days to be raving... :)

I (originally) never associated it with drugs. Just thought it was supposed to be the whole raving dogma. Something people were supposed to look up to above all else follow with religious belief. Something I tried for about a week and then realised it's all shite cos no one else thinks that way :huh:

Instead, it's really just associated with getting PLURed up and feeling high and conected to everyone else in the room. Pill Loving Uncoordinated Ravers perhaps...

I have love and respect for those that deserve it - not just for every turd out there. I didn't need the rave scene to show me that - but yes, there are a few people I've met that I have that for - and to those people (you know who you are) I say "PLURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" :kiss:

I think there is what is technically defined as plur in the rave scene anymore cos people don't respect each other enough. Mostly in the sense of if i like techno then i don't like hardcore or anyone that listens to it and you either like candy ravers if you are one or not if you're not....

The rave scene is so separated now, not that i was old enough to be apart of it before it was but that and the fact there are crews and groups it's like gangs in hip-hop, west coast/east coast shizzle

But you'll still meet poeple that demonstrate elements of plur, so i don't think it's fair to make a mockery of the whole ideology. I've met heaps of people raving that you spend the night chilling with & talking crap, or when the friends you came with can't be bothered dancing anymore you'll crank it with a stranger, sometimes go back with them for recoveries or bring them to yours and these people are nothing but nice, expecting only the same in return. Things eventually turn a bit :shear: but what comes up must come down and the people you've met are still the same: really nice, genuine and chilled even if your serotonin isn't as high as it was. That's plur to me, but i wouldn't necessarily label it that if all you're gonna do is pay it out. Point is, I think in many senses elements of the peace, love, unity and repect, it's still there you just don't have to label or dfine it.

The Tane -you're probably just coming down / dbb you tend to leave the rave when you start to feel like shit, you don't remeber too much before then that may be why you have the view.

My prefence is drum & bass, i find glow sticks annoing to dance with so don't and I don't own fluro clothing so don't wear it, but each to their own, just cos you listen to trance/nrg/techno/harcore/hard house/breaks/electro/house doesn't make you a wanker

lol. you know me? or know when and why and how I go to raves?

I'll believe in PLUR (within the context of the rave scene) when I see these friendly and joyous candy ravers act the same way a few days later when they aren't under the influence of MDMA.

plur is different to each person, my plur is different to his plur, i dont agree with his plur, but your not like the wankers who say it doesnt exist and try and shut it down where it does exist

Almost right :

Peace is a reactionary concept fostered by neo-conservatives, in order
for there to be enemies of it [peace]. Without peace there could
be no enemies of peace, and therefore the central justification of
the military-industrial complex would be hollow and void.

Love is a temporary chemical imbalance in the brain, cynically
exploited by Hallmark and Disney.

Unity is security. Disunity and/or civil disobedience is UNAUSTRALIAN.

Respect is a shiny happy version of the real underlying emotions
of fear, jealousy and possibly regret.

ie. PLUR is a subversive meme which was injected into the nascent
rave community in order to bring us back on to the straight
and narrow path of unfettered capitalism.
