This might be one of those wrong questions to ask, but how many do you think are Role Players here on this forum? Meaning that they just pretend to be able to do things they can't and brag about it. An example from the Psiworld chat: "Please can you help me? Ever since I was young I've been able to move things with my mind, but now it's out of control and I accidentally cut one of my tables in two. And I swung my TV across the room and crashed it against the wall." That's role player. I think his name was something like Cuzco. I took the worst example I could remember, but I think you get the point.  |

Unfortunately, my estimate is at least half. The real problem is that some of the people who were originally not fluffballs are actually believing some of the stuff these idiots are spewing out, and repeating it as if it were fact. It really bugs me, matter of fact. I won't mention any names, since I won't pretend to be a total expert on what's possible and what's not, and since I could (unlikely as it may be) actually be wrong. Perish the thought.

A lot of the members are. It comes with the young age. It makes me mad a lot of the time, but I try not to show it.
Friggin' posers make me sick.
Who was the *14 year old guy* that claimed he could teleport and that he had "gotten rid" of people (and proof that they had lived) before? This was like around Jan or sometime last year...
grrr I know JediKaren knows... I think he had some shape-shifting wolf as his avatar....

I personally enjoy the posts on most other forums but not here because of the newbies.

Have you thought about how good the people with like 1-10 posts say they are? Before I take anyone seriously they need to at least pass the 200 post line, is the post count still active in the Artist's Corner? |

I suppose theres going to be a lot more fluffyness in the chats because its like, theres no archive of it, but in the forums, people can go against you more, because you can't delete your post. (well, you can but that's not my point lol ) ..."Please can you help me? Ever since I was young I've been able to move things with my mind, but now it's out of control and I accidentally cut one of my tables in two. And I swung my TV across the room and crashed it against the wall." Thats hilarious.... what next? "I was really angry once and then I uprooted these massive trees and hit a powerline and started a major fire!" |

You base someone's skill on their post count on this forum, even though the epic fluff drives a lot of more skilled psions away? You need to rethink. |

I don't know who i believed who has fluffed.
People here are real young. I don't know if they may lack the ability to be critical about an event.
I can say I can do TK, not very well, cause I have tried it with no wind, watching it still before i tried, and watching it move the way i wanted it when i tried. I recorded it. Although it has flaws that can be taken out on, I know it's true.
But I don't know what not to believe. For instance, people who say " i tried to make a psi-ball for the first time and i flared". I don't know what to make of it.

Well, I'm actually VERY skeptic and I can hardly believe in Psi even though I've made like 20 Psi balls. The only thing I'm "sure" about is OBE because I've been able to see through my eyelids and I've entered the Vibration Stage. But to others that seems even more unreal. And sorry, I can't help being skeptic. I have a big problem to take anyone around 1-50 post seriously even though their posts are good. But even though you many not have many posts you can still have knowledge. Because I got a account at Astral Society. And I got like 20 posts. That's because I've almost only read about it. So yes, Less skepticism. |

I think on the site, and other websites pertaining to psi, there should be an age limit of 15+. Maybe it should even be 16+. These roleplayers are in fact immature, and age is the prime reason. We have to eliminate them from spreading their lies!
Ha, in seriousness, the roleplaying should stop.

Amodia, you can also believe TK. Well, I could tell you that, but you wouldn't believe me.. I do, however, have a video of me doing it. The only thing you can say is that it's not covered, and yes, it's not. But I did it. It's a question of trust. But i understand if you don't trust me, I'm quite like you, I've yet to see a flare. That's what I'm aiming for.
Funny thing is, upon awaking, if I strain my body and look at it, I can see the same waves that heat produces. Though I'm not that hot. I always think it to be psi.
It's been said that when you sleep your psi recharges, so when you wake up, it would be natural for it to be as high as you can get it. So that's my reasoning.
