How can we draw Satanists over to this site so there comes more activity. We are so few here... Where are all the Satanists?

I know it's all about Facebook and other modern mainstream media but I don't think people who actual are Satanists would be in that for to long because Facebook groups are pure echo chamber groups. To much mindless "give me a big Hail Satan" shit and to much TST silly girls who get butthurt if you say something like "the Satanist is his own god" (she want a gender neutral term). I think actual Satanists may have just left it all. They may not be aware of the fact that SiN is still active.

I edited it to "The Satanist is his own god". She considered it to be sexist...

We hunt you for sport as the special ed Sanger Rainsford. 


You do wonders for engaging the part of the Satanist that always seems to find commonality with LaVey in utter annoyance over the behavior of "Satanic Sins", like victim cards when backed into a rhetorical corner. 


I could be the Carnival Barker:


Come one, come all, step right up and see if you can battle the rhetoric of The Amazingly Obtuse Master of Fallacy, The Conjurer of Conflation, The Guru of Grandiosity. A person so divergent everything said to them spirals past the event horizon of critical examination never to return. Do you have what it takes?

I’ve been around the block for a while now, as have others. I joined the 600 Club in 2009.

 

At that time Satanists had the 600 Club, Letters to the Devil, and the Modern Church of Satan. I also think there was a Joy of Satan website forum? I’m sure there were other places. Then soon after Zach set up S.I.N.

 

One by one all these places ended, except S.I.N. They were old school places. I think many people just drifted away, or couldn’t be bothered anymore, or the old style technology underpinning these forums became too outdated.

 

Thanks to Zach for continuing to make the effort to provide this place. For those who have participated and lurked at S.I.N since its inception like me, they will be aware of just how fiery and brilliant and crazy and downright hostile things tended to (and still do) get here.  

 

There was a core group of people at 600 Club and elsewhere, who seem to have just moved on and given it up. There are still some left. I think the people who used the forums like 600 Club just got older and moved on. A younger group of people, who now want to talk about Satanism have found their own venues which are appropriate to them and their age group.  

 

The only way to attract other Satanists to this site, who are interested enough to participate, is to have intelligent discussion and debate.  And have humor as well. When you get that sort of group in place (and it takes time) then you get good debate and a whole lot of fiery blowups and entertaining bullshit.

 

I don’t know if this TST group had much to do with this folding of websites like 600. I think it was the tech underlying the site.  People lose interest after a while

Not JoS but there was a forum called Theistic Church of Satan who later changed name to in an demonic language only esoteric Satanists could understand in order to keep the pretenders out...


A common thing with all these forums was they were echo chamber groups that excluded anyone who dared to perform criticism on them. I think this also has to do with it. Echo chamber groups won't survive because they become lifeless. When there is no disagreement there is nothing to talk about. 


TST are not Satanists, so I do not include them at all in this. They have nothing to do with Satanism nor even the LHP.

No Tom, that's wrong, in my experience. The 600 Club and S.I.N were never echo chambers. Nobody could ever really agree on anything in my experience. So called "troublemakers" like Aquino (and others) always kept the 600 Club for instance as a hotbed of disputes.

600 club became "famous" for being intolerant assholes. They even wrote an article about it in defense of that accusation. I never got into Hall of Shame thing when they banned me but the fact that it just existed made me disgust them as people. It's childish behavior and has nothing to do with Satanism.

And yes of course SIN has never been an echo chamber. It forgot to write that as an exception. SIN is the only satanic forum I have experienced being tolerant and open minded. Here you are not concerned about what you say. You may be bullied by losers but you don't get banned.

This generation gap is a chasm. If you can't Jump that chasm: you fall in and fade away. It's the Law of Nature: the environment constantly changes, and so you have to adapt to the change in the landscape, socialscape, environment, or slowly go extinct. Church membership is declining. Fraternal orders such as the Masons, Moose, Elk, are in decline. Even the Yakuza in Japan are in decline. The future of Satanism is the ONA


Good to see you're still around MatthewJ1.

Out of curiosity, what makes you think that the ONA would be the future of Satanism? If you don't mind me asking.

to be honest here. i did not even think there were such places. i admit i am new to the internet. though i am a bit old still only in my fifties. i would have never found this but i saw a silly guy on a video about it. i did not think people were open  about these things. it took a great deal of trouble to make it to talk here. did you know they have a thing called vpn? it is very expensive. worth it i think. 

sorry for carrying on. my question is this. how can you draw satanists here when you don't know where they are?

Good point, Dokktur. 


Tom, SIN is not a church and you are not its missionary. Interested folks will find it if they want.

That's the question. I don't have an answer for it so far.

No, Tom, actually I don't. Honestly. That's why I've let you stick around. However, I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy giving you grief over your flip-flops and challenged way of thinking. You don't seem to mind people constantly beating up on you, either. Plus, it's fun.

Oh my oh my. I believe I wrote it once but, perhaps, it has to be repeated.


Forums are much more fun if their transience is an accepted fact. Forums and all other communities come and go so enjoy it while you can. Also there is much more fun to have if one doesn't bother one's head with such things as how to make a forum more alive, what will happen if one's turds of "wisdom" get lost or what the future of internet Satanism will be. If you have something interesting to say, post it. If you don't, then don't. It's that simple.


I was on 600 Club for eight years. It's gone now but the time spent there was a lot of fun. If you think that your writings are worth preserving, then you can back it up but seriously... it's nothing in the grand scheme of things. The world won't become a better place to live (or worse... depending on the perspective) because of our cyber rants.
