Talk:PLUR

Sources and Trembleway
tHIS TOpic is actually written about in newspapers etcetera, so it's probably verifiable if we can get archives from '99. I don't really care actually, so nevermind.

Our sources never seem to verify the Frankie Bones story. If we can't find good sources for that there would be nothing wrong with revising the article to say that the specific origin of PLUR (much like that of the Raver's Manifesto - does it deserve its own article? I get 234 hits for "raver's manifesto baby" and 557 hits for "look at me now manifesto" on clusty) is unknown. Also, I don't think this article should be offering special definitions for "peace" "love" "unity" "respect" when there is no clear "raver/PLUR definition" of those terms out there. Let's just link to the words themselves and leave it at that. Heqs 01:18, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Origins
i put the origins section back in, because it was a key part of the article. that newsgroup discussion was created in 1996, only 5 years after Frankie Bones brought the scene to NYC. It is highly likely to be correct. In any case, it is documented first person testimonial, great evidence.

This link provides the entire origin of P.L.U.R. written by Frankie Bones.

The term "plur" was definitely used in the early 90's by ravers to describe their outlook on the scene. I don't agree that it is a more recent coinage, as we have passed this specific acronym/belief around for 15+ years. I think we all have some pics to prove that! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.248.195.63 (talk) 18:47, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

PLUR
I'm relatively sure endorsed rape and molestation aren't a part of PLUR, I've never seen those two attributed to the acronym outside of this page, and it seems a bit of a strange thing to consciously endorse. Possibility this might be personal projection of author, where is evidence? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.20.237.66 (talk) 14:52, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Fact Check?
Can someone run a fact check on this article? I'm seeing some things on here that don't seem to add up. We may have to even revert back a few edits to remove all the false info on here. Coasterlover1994Leave your mark! 20:19, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

PLURR
I dont normally edit wiki pages so somebody else should address this problem. It's supposed to be PLURR. Thats what it always used to be then the last R faded off over the years. It stands for: Peace, Love, Unity, Respect, and Responsibility. Responsibility is one of the most important things! Especially in the rave scene in the mid-late 90's where lots of drugs were involved. Without Responsibility we would have a lot more dead ravers... :( — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.176.171.159 (talk) 05:29, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

Untruths
No one has immolated themselves in Time Square from what I could find. Who ever wrote that disgusts me. Immolating is a very serious thing for someone to perform. The reference is actually to a shooting that happened during a cool down from a rave.69.196.166.97 (talk) 04:58, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

plur and pronoia
How are plur and pronia the same? They are not. PLUR is about how you are suppose to treat someone at a rave, pronia is a delusional a way of thinking the world conspires to help you and shower you with blessings. These definitions are completely different and thus are not synonyms. Please remove the topic from related ideas as it is incorrect. Ubuntu is correct, instead of pronoia there should be a link about virtues as plur is about being a virtuous person inside a rave and out in society and in ones everyday life.

Kandi bracelet ritual
"' Most PLURR oriented raver-goers are also known as Kandi Kids within the rave community. Within this Kandi culture, there can be a symbolic handshake that rave-goers exchange with one another. This handshake usually includes the exchange of Kandi bracelets, which are handmade bracelets crafted with pony beads. The hand shake consists of two rave-goers placing their hands together and creating hand gestures symbolizing the words peace, love, unity and respect. After this is finished, each rave-goer then trades a hand made Kandi bracelet to symbolize the new friendship and peaceful encounter. Typically when a Kandi bracelet has been traded, it can not be traded with another rave-goer out of respect towards the person who made the bracelet. The Kandi bracelet is meant to be traded only one time and is meant to be kept as a memory of that moment cherished between rave-goers. '"

This seems so off topic that it belongs in a different article. It certainly doesn't belong in the lede for PLURR, so I'm moving it here. 72.152.226.132 (talk) 23:46, 5 November 2016 (UTC)

Why not go all the way to "Disco".
Traceable back to Acidhouse? Why not go all the way back to "Disco".

Listen to "Space" from the 1970s for instance, to not talk about Giorgio Moroder hits etc. Qe4 (Qualitative Evaluation 4th Division) (talk) 12:46, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
