I'll bet you it isn't just one mod' but without the proof, (such as with who's fault it is someone isn't posting), I would only be spreading a conspiracy, (or perhaps even a lie?).

I suspect that ROY is delighted that something other than 'what kitty had for dinner' is generating so many posts and visits to his forum

If you got 100 of your friends from your conspiracy forums to come here and start posting then yes I'm sure there'd be a load of posts and views. They're not the sort of posts we'd want here though.

Again, why don't you share a link to your conspiracy forums and let us go there if we're interested in the fairy tales?

Nope not vulnerable there, 2/10 for trying, I throw the cat in as an aside, if you've been on here long enough, you'll also remember I and others used to spend most of our time in anything goes making up little humorous? stories, but we don't have time for that, a new generation of nutters are trying to seize control and can't help but go in there and ruin it for those that used to enjoy. Oh, if only we could get back to those Halcyon days!

Can we not keep the latter to David Icke style websites? David Icke is of course the guy that was a professional footballer but then switched to conspiracy theories about how the world is lead by an elite whom are actually reptilian not human. Queen Elizabeth II is even a reptile, he alleges. Comeon, can we not keep the conspiracies there? It wouldn't surprise me if Margaret etc were registered on those sites anyway.

Just one thing going on, people are expressing their opinion.

I don't think the latter conspiracy theorists are interesting no. I think they should go back to posting on the far out conspiracy theory websites where everyone there can indulge their fairy tales.

Some people do find the posts on here intersting and enjoyable. I mean look at the view count and post count on the threds.

Let see, being a member of a forum means posting various stuff? (as I do) as you have quoted your self in the past if everything was the same it would be boring.

Post it all here, give over.

I dont see what a few members problem is, Its not like the forum is bombarded with new posts stating conspiracy theries, I mean im all up for a bit of banter and never take anything to serious in the replys I get and love a debate and a bit of fishing;).

I don't remember you mentioning there will be a delay? What's happened? Wrong reality, or wrong stimulants?

As has already been mentioned we haven't quite, explored our planet, however, I think I'll go along with Patrick Moore he is more believable than most.

O.K. I've taken it from wiki, Patrick Moore - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
but even they print the 'real' truth sometimes!

Have to agree that we haven't come close to exploring this planet ... and I don't mean that in the sense that we have yet to capture the Loch Ness Monster, the Yeti, the Sasquatch and even the Okopogo.

Also, there is a helluva lot of difference between being "believable" and "telling the truth." Seems to me that a lot of you guys over there believed Tony Blair before the invasion of Iraq, but how many now will state that this "believable" politician was telling the truth?:rolleyes:

It's perfectly legitimate English to use the term we, when you know that there are more than just you, with a similar point of view.

Just as the conspiracy people, (notice a plural), can use it if they wish to.

No arrogance about using the correct format he is not presuming he is speaking for himself and others, but he did it without breaking the forum rules and swearing which seems to be your standard of English.
:rolleyes::)

Only if you wish it to be, I know I was inclusive in the 'we', and so are many others on this site, we, (notice that word again), do talk to each other using the P.M. system so I know he's not being arrogant he is stating what a few people have agreed with.

I suppose now the conspirators will be getting together, on the same P.M. system and will then claim the old chestnut that the 'clique' of accyweb is against them.

But do WE care? Not really.

Then use his powers to determain that any threds the group decide are unsutable for accrington web are moved or request that simmalar types of threds are no longer posted.

But then again do WE care? Not really.:D

And to keep it on topic.:D

Interesting article, although the angles of the concept pictures are designed to make it appear as UFO-like as possible to big it up.

All these reports seem to forget what UFO actually stands for, so all these mystified citizens are actually being 100% accurate in naming them as such.
