Listen I know you, you're not a nut, it doesn't mean you might not be mistaken amirite? Either way a story for the next summit!
Nein, not with 70% of votes of no. They're all gonna laugh at me
...I'll shoot you a pm with a brief explanation though.I wish I could say I was mistaken but any way you slice it doesn't make much sense other than I was dealing with the supernatural.
You don't sound like a Nut, and you're also not the first person to believe in the supernatural... Not by a longshot.
However, our point is; why ghosts? Why does it have to be something from "Beyond the grave" and not some other, more (or equally) likely explanation?
Gravitational disturbances, mind tricks, someone else fucking with you, there are lots of causes out there that fool people into believing in the supernatural, when there happens to be no proof anywhere for it at all.
Why insist on siding with the explanation that has no proof?
K how about this, go read some bad ouija experiences more specifically ones that deal with partial possession and assume just for a second that what you are reading is completely true and coming from a sane person who neither before or long after playing with the board experienced any of the things they speak of. Then come back and explain with proof that it was a "gravitational disturbance" lol ...See I can laugh at you too.
I'm really not trying to convince anyone because like I said if you don't experience it you just don't understand. I was just as skeptical before. You know like, "hey guys which one of you is moving this fuckin thing LOL".
Look why don't you get a couple of buddies together and "play" around with it a few times. Get 5 or so people together that you trust. Play with it for a couple of days, couple of weeks. Stop using it. Come talk to me after. I'll put money on the fact that at least one person out of that group will go through some sort of experience which can be directly attributed to the board. It will happen very quickly and be pretty obvious. Again, keep in mind not everyone is as susceptible to influence from the "other side". Kind of like some people can't get hypnotized which is why I'm saying to use more than one person that you trust so you'll believe them if something does happen.
I REALLY REALLY hate that I'm suggesting this because I don't want to be even slightly responsible for any harm or someone's life pulling a 360 because of someone trying to prove a point. But just think of it as your own investigation though I suppose. Just don't come back to me after if you've got problems I don't want anything to do with that fucking thing. Good luck bros.
If something like that is true and really did work, don't you think scientific studies would be done to try to "measure" this "other side"?
The way you talk about, there's a pretty high percentage (talking like over 10%) that someone will feel the impact of messing around with one of these boards. Why don't they conduct a controlled experiment and actually prove something?
Sure do! Ghosts pwned SC1 w/ their stealth nukes n shit
Nice chunky beaver on that one.
I have never experienced anything supernatural. And the shows where these teams try to find ghosts kind of piss me off.
However, there have been a couple of episodes of 'my ghost story' shows that I seen that I believe 100%. I know there are actors and made up stories in these type shows. But when you can see the terror in each family member's eyes, and the recounts line up without any gaps, I tend to believe it.

LMAO... You know you're talking about a TV show, right? A product who's very most basic function is to get you watching more episodes?
They'll show you proof that your mother is an alien here to eat the planet on "Reality TV." Please tell me this was sarcasm or some kind of trap to catch m0rtal in... :rasta:
m0rtal: I'm one of those insane folks that are right there with you.
Had several experiences of my own that don't make sense and have come out of 'left field'.
I'm a geek and normally a pretty rational, realistic person. I want proof, data and replicate things several times. However, due to some strange experiences and family 'gifts' I eventually had to fold. Some stuff I simply can not explain and have given up on trying to. Just accept, move on - while realizing there is much more to the world then we can see.
Keep your mouth shut so other folks don't call you crazy and life is good

I'm still not certain if you're on a wind-up, but if not then check out the Ideomotor effect:
ideomotor effect - Google Search
Also for the person asking about studies on this sort of thing, that's the place to start looking^, plenty have been done.
I would flame me too for posting that, but... I'm far from gullible and I'm the first one to call bullshit on something. Putting something on TV for profit doesn't instantly make it made up. Plenty of shows are based on reality and real stories that are excellent entertainment. I could be completely flogged, but some recounts of ghost stories/haunted houses I believe 100%.
If anyone wants to talk to someone that does what she does on her show (well similar) let me know and I'll put you in touch with someone. She is just as hot (If not hotter) and 'really' accurate... She actually consulted on 'The Mentalist', 'Medium' and a couple other shows...
This does happen sometimes but you can easily tell the difference if you're being observant. Either way read the bottom of that wiki page "The validity of these experiments has not been proven."
Also whichever way the the ouija "works" is one thing - the things I experienced after toying with it can not be explained with some ideomotor theory lol.
