    Apparently they don't like being asked to prove stuff.:mad:
    I'm in need of some logical cheering up.
    Have any of you guys had similar experiences online or in real life?

    Yeah apparently you can't ask for proof. Bit ridiculous really as any old troll could go in there and say something without having to back it up. Actually, I might go PM Raspberry a link to the forum.

    She was banned from ah but is still around apparently. Can't see them moving this to Thunderdome though, one thread there about her is one too many imo

    And this thread was never really on topic anyway with it being here instead of feedback, good chance for lolcats wasted, drat

    Raspberry is still alive and well apparently, though he/she has gotten recent bannings from one of the gaming forums as well as politics. Site ban must be imminent.

    Asking for proof there is like asking for evidence of the resurrection on the christian forum, they don't wanna hear it and will just think you are trolling. If you don't like the way the forum is run just don't read it, far easier

    I think the best thing to do in a situation like this is to start a feedback thread. Can never have too many of them.

    I last read the Paranormal forum a couple of years ago. There was much excitement over some "orb" photos taken on a visit to a haunted house. Now that I look again I see they are still talking about orbs.

    I don't see the point of a forum where you can't point out the obvious explanation that people are taking photos of dust. It's a waste of time.

    there's a new one of those just started. I'm banging my head against the wall in frustration.

    whats the problem?

    You don't walk into a church and start arguing about how God is dead. The Paranormal discussion is not a forum to debate whether or not ghosts exist, it's for people who already believe, or at least are open to the idea. If you think it's all bollocks, like me, either ignore them or post here.
