I have noticed that the witlesses seem to have more success in scamming people that are having ongoing problems in their lives. Usually they have stagnant jobs, poverty, are having zero success with the opposite sex, or are having major issues with their health (especially mental health). Those people usually fall for the promises that said problems will be removed in the New Dark Ages, that the witlesses will take care of them, or both.
Often, what will happen is that the person will become zealous in studying. They often study twice a week. And, they will prepare for the boasting sessions and make the necessary changes quickly. And they will participate actively in the boasting sessions. Those are also the ones that feel the boasting sessions are too short. And then, when it is time for field circus, they are the ones that take the lead.
What happens is that, while they are at the boasting sessions or in field circus, their problems will seem muted. That is because of masking. Often the effect of being at the boasting sessions or bashing people in the world makes them feel self righteous, effectively masking their problems for the time being. This is especially true at the bigger boasting sessions where they are listening to discourse after discourse, often emphasized, bashing the "filthy worldly people that are soon going to die". That makes them feel good for the time.
However, the underlying problem is still there. So, when the boasting session ends, they will find themselves facing it. Often, they will just step up their activity in field circus. And since they only feel good while doing something theocraptic, they are fully immersed in it. These individuals will soon realize that a regular amount of field circus is not effective any more, since they need it in order to mask the problem. They will start auxiliary pioneering, and tell you that they enjoy it. In fact, they truly believe that they enjoy pioneering. What they are enjoying is the temporary relief from the pain of the original problem. Very often, they will end up special pioneering or going where the need is great.
Very often, these ones will go to Beth Hell. The work is demanding and unreasonable. The field circus is also hectic. But that is the only place they feel relief from their problems, which are still there in full force (and often with new ones). So, they actually seem to enjoy it. Those are the ones that will give Beth Hell and pioneering a high recommendation.
Now, there are plenty of other things that mask problems. Common is recreation like video games, music, and sports. More damaging is gambling beyond one's means, alcohol abuse, and using drugs. One should realize that these activities too can become psychologically addictive (people depend on them to mask problems, which is responsible for all addiction involving video games, entertainment, or going online and much alcohol and drug abuse). However, none of these activities rewards God (or the Washtowel Slaveholdery) for creating or sustaining problems so they can be masked with self-serving activities that serves the one creating or maintaining the problem. And none will get a person involved in recruiting others into a scam. Has anyone ever hounded anyone into continuing to play Scramble or Centipede? I haven't seen any.
Next time someone honestly claims to enjoy the boasting session, thinks the Grand Boasting Session was too short, or wants to stay out all day every day in field circus, that person has a preaching problem. There is a serious problem in that person's life that only field circus or boasting sessions can mask. Which is not good for self or society.
