Have you ever seen someone RC in real life?

Looks great - well done!!
:bravo:

WakingNomad has been on the case with two threads as well:

Yepp - news from my darting-companions - one of the ones already having had an LD long time ago - he had one directly after reading my thread!!
Broke away from him while hand-inspecting - but that really trumps my wildest imagination concerning effects!
And - two other lovely persons with experiences and interest.
One of them having stumbled over LD because of unhealthy mad working schedule and having come to drifting about the borders like that - and one having had several classical waking-up SP nightmares - with shuffling noises and malignancy jumping on her chest - all inclusive.
Told her, this might be nasty on the one hand - but also maybe make it easier for her to learn WILD.

Been linking up to gab´s and Sageous tutorials - who knows how this all plays out!
Chuffed to bits - as they would say it!

Well, that was pretty hot.

I pretty much have reduced RCing a lot, or just simply using it for its basic purpose. Instead, I am using RRC. Some LDers may only use RRC or ADA, so its even harder to spot a LDer because they may not use RCs

I may be a little bit biased now, but I believe most lucid dreamers express a more curious attitude to everything they experience.
People who habitually hurry between destinations and hardly notice anything around them probably aren't very "lucid" in their everyday lives.

Not necessarily. In dreams, we do notice the weird dreamlike things(if you don't, then you won't remember dreaming about them), but what we lack is memory to remember that it is unusual. So, self-awareness activated the memory in dreams. Vwala.
You might think that I am wrong, and might look at ADA for instance. It is all about environmental awareness, but for what? ADA is to make your environmental awareness in dreams higher, not for noticing the weirdness(as I said before, the issue is memory), but for getting a better sense of the dream "feeling", so it would be like an always occurring DS. Good, but I prefer not to do it, because it hinders self-awareness. You might wonder what would you do without sensing that feeling. First, you can benefit from any other DS. Second, I personally dedicate a couple of LD for the soul purpose of memorizing that "feeling". This is a far better tactic than ADA. As for RCing, self-awareness is easier to leak to the dream since it becomes second nature unlike RCs. And RCs may hinder self-awareness, so they should be done for their main purpose only, to determine the current state, no more.

Yes, I saw one of my friends clutching his nose and then pushing his fingers through a wall once, didn't have to ask him why lol. I never RC in public.

He's the only one I know who has heard of LDing.
