    Dunno!











    Seriously though, I will start a few threads over the next day or two which will help people get the idea of what fits in here hopefully!

    For example, I would have started that thread on UFOs here instead of Paranormal if this forum had been here, maybe you could move it?

    To answer you here is something I thought might be usefull for the charter


    "The usual rules apply, no spamming, no text speak, no personal abuse, love one another and all that.

    What is welcome in this forum in terms of content? Quite a bit I should think. Cryptozoology, Ufology, fringe and not so fringe science. A bit of Paranormal crossover will probably happen too which I think is fine to a degree. Tales of the strange, wierd, urban myths, and stuff that just doesn't seem to fit elswhere.

    Who is welcome here? Everyone except, trolls, spammers and those with closed minds. As long as you are prepared to accept others opinions differ from yours that is fine. Reasoned debate, debunking and disagreements are welcome as long as they are done with respect to others."

    You mean you think science has explained everything? I sure hope not.

    well, then maybe some open mind examination will lead to concrete conclusions? You at least might be amused if you hang around?

    If the request thread is anything to go by, this should be a great forum for when you've got a bit of time on your hands.

    I remember opening a link that Nerin posted and then spending three or four hours reading around the subject of the link. Great stuff altogether.

    Is there a reason this forum wouldn't be showing up under the Soc heading at the top of the page yet? Or is it there and I'm just blind?

    I find blind faith in science as ridiculous as blind faith in god. The only thing we know is that we don't know.

    Hi! Newbie here and just had to respond to Batboy. Any forum that mentions him gets my attention! Here's my favorite Batboy story (if I've got the jpeg from an URL uploader thingy working. If not, check out http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8teTbzhI7X4/SPLJ4kUQzpI/AAAAAAAAD2M/-98EURb2tr4/s400/1243264955_a526ba738a_o.jpg)[IMG][/img]

    This forum has been here for a year and I only discovered it now :p

    So is this supposed to be for topics that have traditionally been in the Paranormal forum, yet aren't actually supernatural? Extra-terrestrials, bigfoot, nessy, etc., as opposed to 'supernatural' things such as ghosts?

    Interesting...

    edit:

    There's only been like 20 threads posted, wtf?! :p
