Hullo. I’m to new here, the only Ld’s i can remember are the ones from my childhood. A friend told me to check this site out and I can’t say how glad i’m for that tip. Right now i’m well on my way to remember my dreams and checking the reality from time to time. Over and Out
/me shakes Un1T’s hand 
and welcomes him to LD4all 
remember to check out the choosing your technique topic (the original is a sticky topic in the quest forum … but it is also pasted into the knowledgebase 
) it will help you decide which method is the most likely to work for you
AlmostATree … I noticed your name at the top of the forum and thought it was a big coinidence, since we are hoping to do a silly anything goes wolfgame in the playground forum … and the gms are threatening to give the role of tree to a player 
(link to topic)
I read your first LD (link to post ) and it seems to be a common experience to just wake yourself up when a child becomes aware of the dream during a nightmare 
It’s a shame lucid dreaming isn’t more well known since it seems a bit of a waste 
anyway with your past childhood experiences you should get the ability to LD again in no time 
I hope you both enjoy your time spent on LD4all 
Hey everyone!
I first heard about LD’s a couple days ago, and after reading a little bit, I eventually found myself here.
I have a feeling that it won’t be too hard to get my first LD, as I have realized I was dreaming several times before, but this site has made my mission seem 1000x easier.
Glad to be here:)
Hi, I’m new here 
Well, to the forum at least… I knew (and visited) the site a couple of years ago, but now I thought I’d join in on the talk 
I’ve been recalling my dreams and trying to become lucid in them for 5 weeks… and I’ve now got a grand total of 2 seconds worth of a LD.
Maybe I’ll have some more luck tonight!
hello Julespeak and Sakayume, it’s great to have you here I hope you both enjoy being part of the LD4all community 
that’s good to hear
I’m glad you decided to come back and even register at the forum this time
Hi, I’m new here!
I like vampires! 
patarak
if you like vampires you should definitely play Vampire Game!
yay!
Nifty to find this forum. Thanks to the creators, and hello to all of you.
I’ve been interested in dreams forever. It started out as a deconstruction and analysis of all my dreams, and then budded into wanting to control them. I tried this late last year with some success. My first LD was all of two seconds. I became lucid, the world becam razor-sharp and vibrant, and I had just enough time for the awareness of the LD to set in before I woke myself up with the excitement of it all.
The next was maybe 10 seconds, and I woke myself up the minute I made anything happen.
Then, for some reason, I have lost it. No lucid dreams in over a half year. I wonder if it’s something I might be doing wrong, or if these lapses occur?
Anyway, I hope to get something out of reading the forum, and I’ll try to contribute when I’ve got something worthy to share.
Nice to meet you all!
This is the obligatory intro post.
My name is Matt, I’m 22 and I live in Oklahoma. I’ve been having lucid dreams since I was around 14 years old. I am very proficient at controlling them and I am a very frequent dreamer so I get a lot of practice. Dreaming is something I hold very dear as it’s one of the most amazing things I experience in life.
I’m about to go to sleep at the moment so I’m sure we’ll talk more later!
hello Patarak 
, machei and polyzelf
/me thinks Patarak may become out next vampgame and wolfgame addict 
a side effect of playing is that you could get more vampire dreams 
The early LDs are often prematurely ended due to excitement … but they do get longer and more stable with experience.
Dry spells do occur, the important thing is to remember everytime you go to sleep that it is a new opportunity to become lucid What technique were you using? And did you use WBTB too … using WBTB really increases the chance of getting a long LD
hello polyzelf, since you are an experienced LDer you may enjoy our lucid adventures forum and esprecially our current quest … ~ Quest for this Moon: Enter a videogame ~
Alright, I’ve known about lucid dreaming for, oh… two years now, and have been working on it half-assedly during that time. I’ve had a little success, but believe me, I want to be better at it! I know I can be, too, as although I haven’t had many lucids, a few of them were REALLY intense and memorable. I know what I’m capable of; I’m just running into some problems… That’s why I’m here!
I’ve been a member of DreamViews, under the name Richter, but quite honestly, I think the masters there are getting a bit sick of me asking the same questions over and over! I’ll still be a member, but my role will become more of a “lucid helper”. I may not be good at LDing, but I know TONS about it.
So, hi all, and glad to be here. I hope I can help some would-be LDers around, and hopefully I can get some help and finally LD and recall dreams as much as I’d like to!
I do try to remember that. And yeah, I try to get in the right headspace as much as I’m able. I recall the dreams all the time, and afterward I can see places where I’d have had a perfect opportunity for an ‘aha!’ moment, but for some reason I don’t clue in. For example last night I dreamt among other things that I was looking at a menu above a counter. If I’d looked at it more than once, I would have certainly noticed the words were wrong, but I just didn’t. It’s sorta frustrating… even when I know what I need to do, I don’t do it. But, I will keep at it. I want to have more, and longer.
Up to now, I’ve been using MILD and DILD pretty much exclusively. I find that looking at words or numbers is the best way so far… it’s how I’ve initiated both LDs I’ve had. So I do reality checks as much as I can.
WBTB is something I do without even trying. I’m susally up once in the night, and I use that time when falling back to sleep to try to talk my way into a LD, but it’s never worked.
I guess I just need to keep at it.
Thanks for your reply!

hello Kulbara, welcome to LD4all 
I hope you post a few in our dream diary forum … there is also a sticky topic in there called Sticky: Do You Have the Most Interesting LD? for which you may have a suitable LD
I hope you enjoy being a member of this forum
New Vampire Game member has arrived.
Welcome.
Hello everyone. I have a quite strange history at LD4all, I must say. But I can conclude it as that I have been very active on the Dutch LD4all quite a while ago, but that I stopped going there because it was so inactive. I also tried the French one, but it was too hard for me to enjoy it. Now I will trie to settle at the English one, since it is both active and in a understandable language for me. I started with the wolfgame by the way, but now I’m trying to approach other boards too.
My lucid dreaming had been very changing. There were times I remembered tons of dreams, but lately I haven’t remembered one, because I kept going to bed too late. I really miss dreams, I desire them more then anything else on the whole world. Now though, I only have to wait two days now, and then my vacation will begin. That wil be a gold mine.
Hi everybody. New here, just thought I’d introduce myself.
I’m 43 years old, and had my first lucid dream about eight to ten years ago, not too long after seeing a program on television about the subject. My very first LD was by far the longest and most intense one I’ve ever had, though a couple of others have come close. I was so much in control, that I was able to stop and think about what the actual date was, guess the time of night, and even guess what position my body was lying in while still remaining 100% in the dream. The entire thing lasted for a good 10 minutes or more, and I found I could do almost anything I could think of.
It was a long time until I had my second, and several years before there was any kind of regularity at all. Now I typically LD about once a week, though it is usually no longer than 30 seconds. Only occasionally do I get a really deep and lasting one, maybe up to 5 minutes or so if I’m lucky.
I’ve talked to many friends and family members about it, but hadn’t really thought that there might be a community out there somewhere where people exchange ideas and experiences. So here I am. You guys seem friendly enough so far.

hello Moinsquerien (or should I say Potan ) … it seems odd welcoming you since I know you well from WG 28 
and then you will get lots of wolfgame dreams 
hello skysaw
have you more details? it would be good if you could post it into our “My First LD Collection” in the dream diary forum.
Are they entered into from waking? or do you become lucid in the dream itself? There are ways to stabilise the dream … rubbing your hands together, using commands, focusing on the texture of something etc
/me spots your age and spams the Are you 30 years or older topic 
(there is a link in my signature )
Done!
I usually enter them from within dreams, most often by noticing something is not behaving properly. I only recently learned about hand-rubbing, and have so far used it once with great success!
Link followed and taken advantage of.
Hey everyone, im new in the LD4all forums, just thought i would introduce myself…
Im Fleep (Phil) and im 16 from the UK.
I found out about LD’ing by browsing the internet (i can’t remember it exactly - it will become obvious that i have the memory of a cheese sandwich! 
) and this was the first site i found on LD’ing.
I found it really interesting and i think i have become obsessed! Dreams are really interesting and i would love to LD it sounds so fun and exciting!
Look forward to chatting to everyone about LD’ing, im so glad i found this site
