    I doubt many are going to understand what you are really saying in that post any better than I do, Bluegreen.
    Would you care to elaborate?

    I was curious, and clicked back to find one contributor posting a 2-hour video after it went up to youtube "5 minutes ago". The next video I clicked on from this contributor featured a 24-year-old Richard Dolan. I thought, Oh. I see.

    Another time, I was going to post, but didn't, a video by a well known researcher, because by some glitch, there was no sound. The next day another contributor posted it; I clicked on it and thought, Oh. I see.

    Guess we posted at the same time, Onawah. Hope you don't miss my post which was the last one on the previous page.

    I saw your post, Sue, but I don't understand what it has to do with Bluegreen's cryptic post.

    Sometimes the cognitive dissonence is so great and the aggravation factor so high that there is very little chance for polite or calm discussion.

    Whlle the thread that I started gets very little attention from members by comparison, so non-members are not likely to even notice it.
    It's all presented on the pro-Goguen thread as legitimate information, with the Avalon fans of Goguen buying it all as legitimate, so non-members will likely be concluding the same.
    The views on the KG thread, as with other threads, do not necessarily mean that folks view it as legitimate info. Views may sometimes be for entertainment value, curiosity, searching for clues in KG's rhetoric, trying to figure out who or what is pushing the info, or just for the pure flabbergast-factor of KG's highly audacious claims.

    I also feel that the KG thread might be better suited in the personalities section of the forum, for now.

    A pet peeve I have is when threads on a topic need to be split into two factions, like the pro and con KG threads as well as several others. This often happens when a couple of highly opinionated folks refuse to allow pro or con discussion on a thread that they feel strongly about. If all sides were able to be politely and calmly discussed on one thread, people could more easily be presented with both sides, and perhaps reach their own conclusions more readily.

    But overall, I do trust that eventually karma does catch up, and the hoaxers and scammers do get taken down. Sometimes it is even hard to watch.

    Ok... well, I think I will just go right over to the KG thread right now, and ask Gwin Ru (and others there) why he feels there is truth in the thread. Politely.

    .... Just to be clear, I don't believe Bill's complaint about posting youtube videos without watching them first or commenting was addressed to me as I don't make a habit of doing that.
    Though in certain cases, such as with the SuspiciousObservers posts, when the source is so well known that no explanation or comment is really necessary, I don't comment.
    I was not bragging about being a prolific member of the forum, .....
    I'm fairly sure Bill's comment was not addressed to you, any more than any of my points were.
    I certainly was not thinking of you as I made my closing comments either.

    Rest easy.

    National Slam the Scam Day 2/27/24
    See: https://www.facebook.com/oigssa
    The Office of the Inspector General and the FBI's scambusting apparatus apparently hasn't extended itself yet to scammers like Kim Goguen, but hopefully that day will come soon.

    Interim comment:

    Somewhat ironically, it's getting quite 'noisy' in here
    “If a man does not keep pace with [fall into line with] his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.” - Thoreau
