Need Help? A bit of my time once a week...

Postby karl » Oct 6th, '07, 17:00



Hi every one
I have decided to create this new topic, because I have observe in this forum, that most of poeple are getting craisy to know how.....AND NOBODY REALLY AND DIRECTLY HELP THEM, because of the EXPOSURE EFFECTS"

Dont you worry, I AM NOT GOING TO EXPOSE anything publicly in here, but I have decided to give "A BIT OF MY TIME ONCE A WEEK"[b] to all serious poeple that really NEED HELP, for advancing in there magic, and that may now ,feel BLOCKT, because, nobody help you.

I remember how much was I suffering when I xwas 12 years old, and didnt have anyone to help me.
My only help was my grand father, he was the one that started me into magic at the age of 7-8
I even remember still, the very first trick with him.
but unfortunatly, he pass away when I was 11.

In Spain we had at the time, a very famous Magic Set box call
"MAGIA BORRAS", well i did got one of those boxes, but in about one week, i was getting allready bord (?) with it........

LETS MAKE ONE THING CLEAR FROM THE BEGINING
I will not reveal or expose anything concerning on HOW THAT TRICK WORKS, if the trick its self is on the market for sale.
THEN YOU WILL NEED TO BUY IT FIRST

I will ONLY give you tuition (?spelling) (help) for general enquiries, for slides, for ideas, for comments, help you with routine ideas? AND WHY NOT
getting dip into it, if you need to build a lets say, 10 minutes VISUAL CABARET routine;

SO:
How will we proceed?
Send me all your questions via PM, and about EVERY SATURDAY, i will be here to help and council you.
I will only answer the most serious ones.

HOPE THIS HELP, to all youngsters (and less youngsters) around .

If someone like to contact me a bit more directly, dont hesitate to send an email to
cpblune@yahoo.fr
and i will in case you needed, send you privatly my web site adress.
______________________

WELL!!! what are you waiting for ???

very friendly,
KARL BRAVOSKY

PS: Why I do this ???[/b]

Because i love my work, and I know that you love it to.
have fun;

Okay, let me re-phrase then...

The suggestion that this forum, and the very kind members that exist herein, offers no help to anyone who is sincerely looking for help is so blatently false that words fail me in an attempt to express my point of view. As a result, the only thing that I could think to type was the expletive above. So, allow me to use less vulgar expressions and tell you, in no uncertain terms, exactly what I think of your claim:

Pathetic.
Pitiful.
Ridiculous.
Preposterous.
Derisory.
Ludicrous.
Absurd.
Farcical.
Laughable.
Contemptable.
Ignoble.
Idiotic.
Moronic.
Crackbrained.
Imbecilic.
Doltish.
Boneheaded.
Worthless.
Unrighteous.
Unjustified.
Inequitable.
Wrong.


Better?

Mike.

When people ask for help on this forum, the usual response comes quickly in the following format:

Exposure is wrong, but these are the books, DVDs and tricks to look at if you want to find the answers.

And, in the long term, that's a hell of a lot more helpful than providing quick and specific answers.

Teach a man to fish and all that...

I don't think any self-important private mentorship can possibly be more constructive and fruitful than the kind of help that already exists here. I think Karl's proposal can only really benefit Karl's ego.

karl my friend i help people very often in this forum via mail, pm and directly on the forum so i feel very let down by your comment.

since you have decided not to reply to this thread i won't ask for an apology as your motives are genuine, but you like most people on this forum are unaware how often members like me and the mods answer questions, redirect people to usefull imfomation and warn people who pm just for answers and have no intention of learning magic, its a regular thing.
just take a moment to read my signature it clearly states my intention.

Wow thanks Karl thats really nice of you. You would go out of your way to help me? WoW. I think its great that you would do such a thing.

Discoman your sig says you may not give a stright answer though.

I am master of misdirection, look over there.

We are not falling out young Welshy, we are debating, I think farlsy is an idiot he thinks I am one. We are just talking about who is the bigger idiot.

a classic example from my files, tell me how to make the raven.
sorry i can't but you can pick it up from most magic shops or a certain paul zenon book for a tenner gives full instructions.
just tell me how to make one now.
very well you will need 3ft of reciprocating cord, around £5, a 1/4 yard of felt around £2 and n45 ferrite disk around £20 and of cause my construction notes £10, after all cunsultancy fees are not free you know, or you could buy one for about £15.
get stuffed.
i do frequently and often, your local libary has the book.
no answer.

some portions edited for taste and decency and not to give anything away.

Whenever i see a post from Karl I don't know if I'm more shocked by the nonsense he posts or from the fact that he's still here posting that very same nonsense :shock:
I'm beginning to wonder what he has over the mods that allows him to get away with it.

Enough already :evil:

Wow! that sets off a lot of warning bells. While I feel that Karl is trying to do good here, and his heart may be in the right place I feel he is going about it all wrong. I'd be weary about anybody who says that over the course of a rather small amount of time, over the internet is going to help out with a 10 minute cabaret routine "his example". How on earth are you going to get to know a persons mentality, ability, style etc on this type of format?

I personally like this forum I find eveybody entertaining and willing to help in a constructive way that is condusive to magic and its basic tennaments.

A post like Karls just kind of cries out. "LOOK AT ME, I'm better then everyone just ask me and I'll tell you how wonderful I am" I only post this because I worry about new commers into the field not really understanding what its all about and as of yet unable to make the distinction between good and bad advice, as that only comes with experience.

Also the fact that he does not want to debate or stand behind his words on this thread after he has started the thread shows a certain lack of character.

On the other hand, and yes there is another hand, I believe or at the very least hope that Karl is on the up and up, and if thats the case then I applaud him for his efforts (although I don't know how he can read the posts here and come to the conclusion that folks here are not helpful).

Hi

Postby karl » Oct 7th, '07, 23:08

I have two names, because at the begining when I register, I made a mistake. thats all

By the way there is nothing against the rules about that.

By the way, in what is concern you the fact that someone has few names in here?
Is that affect you personaly in any way?
karl
ps: concerning :
" The lousy grammar and spelling coupled with Karl's signature signature style gave him away immediately"

beside your inglish, witch other languages are you able to express with?
I think languages are to comunicate, not to do politiques.

I am spanish, and I preforme in 5 languages
spanish,english,german,italian,danish,catalan, and some arabic.
________
what about you?
I did make a great mistake registrering in this forum, because I can see that "most" (did say "MOST", not all) of you spend more of your time printing merde about others, then to write about magic.
_________________
JUST DISCOVER:
by accident i just discover, that most of topics in witch someone ask to be help........have bein there for a long period of time, and just with very few answers, some has bein there for month......"WITH VERY FEW VIEWERS, AND FEW ANSWERS"

You should see the pms I am getting from poeple thanking for.

ALSO DICOVER
That every time that ME or Mr Lord Freddie write a new topic (never mind the topic or subject)
Sudently in TWO days we have MORE VIEWERS and answers, then all the others (above mention) in weeks or months

And most of the times , the answers are far away from the proposed TOPIC
with a lot of improper languages (by some), and a strange agressivity BY OTHERS (with out reason), and sometimes with even racistic connotations, concerning accents, spellings, and even sending insulting pm:

When I joint this forum, I was expecting to have fun, and probably meet interesting poeple to talk MAGIC WITH, and why not HELP someone, but I can tell you that except just very few, the rest of my time I spend it, in reading the most strange, and agressive and some very vulgar and agressive textes.
%MOST OF THEM NOTHING TO DO WITH MAGIC, witch i guess is the meaning for bein here.

And whats funny, is that most of those textes (Not all) come from poeple
that dont have nothing to do with magic (not all)(nothing in the profiles).

and others that have other jobs, and that like and preforme magic when they got the time, for friends or weekends gigs, but that they dont have the "B...s" to quit there jobs, and do the big JUMP.

Please , the concern ones, "dont bother answering this".
