I have to believe those under revisionist delusions (hereinafter to be referred to as TURDS solely to save forum space) that they can determine the truth of a previously reported sighting in the absence of any physical evidence are simply trolling. TURDS like DWA, WSA etc know there is no way they can actually determine anything from the information contained in the reports other than that a report was made. TURDS often try to inflate the value of the reports but it simply doesn't work, the math just doesn't add up. 10,000 reports, each with zero value as evidence of existence adds up to exactly zero (10000 x 0=0). Another way to look at it would be comparing the number of posts made on the forum to their level of truth or correctness. DWA would surely rank as the most prolific of all TURDS due to the sheer number of posts he's made on the subject. And while he can rightfully be proud of his status as king of all TURDS we are all free to examine his posts, one by one, for their level of truth or correctness. When we notice the many mistakes he's made, logical fallacies, falling for hoaxes on April 1st, etc we should be noting that DWA's status as king of all TURDS doesn't translate into his being correct or truthful. To sum it up as simply as possible - DWA may be king of all TURDS but it doesn't make him any more correct or truthful just like lots of reports don't mean bigfoot should be recognized as they contain no actual evidence of bigfoot. Each post or report has to judged on it's own and examined for actual evidence. As in many other subjects it's quality, not quantity, that matters.

There are no experts, noone's solved it so it remains a mystery. Hence, no experts. Done.

Short and easy to remember for most...but apparently not for those under revisionist delusions.

I can provide a list of those who fell for an obvious April Fool's prank. It's short.

Ohiobill.....just curious....you do know there is a difference between proof and evidence, correct? The two are not interchangeable.

But we're asking you to talk about the evidence. This your chance to dazze us all with the unknown primate results that have been documented. Or maybe by evidence you mean stuff you make up.

What is it with folks that have blocked a poster and the absolute need to publicly proclaim they've blocked them? Gee, I'll try to sleep tonite, knowing Leafy has blocked me. It's comical.

Branco and Yuchi almost have me thinking the killing one might not be a good idea, and they haven't even tried to get me to change my mind. Both men have very, very good reasons. You gotta admit - they're huge and butt ugly. (BF - not Branco and Yuchi) Like you, DWA, and JDL are good guys too, and a few others here. I don't know what to say to some, though. When they say "these big things couldn't continue to hide," I know better. If I were a plumber, I'd try to relate through my plumbing experience. If I were a CPA, I'd try to use numbers. If I were a tire store manager - that would be my experience, and I'd try to address some questions that maybe could be demonstrated through those experiences. But my experience has been in combat, in very thick, harsh terrain that normal people wouldn't go. My enemy were in difficult, remote areas for a reason - they didn't want to be detected. I think they're like, "I never saw one, and since I didn't get to see one - I'll belittle them, their narrative, their knowledge, and suggest they're FOS. And denied that experience of a real, up close 'encounter,' they're like kids who didn't get to see the big football game everyone that went - is talking about. So. You keeping it real? Still got your freak on?

You have proof FA is LT? Evidence? Wow, I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time; thanks for that, Incorrigible. I’ve blocked you, so I wouldn't have seen what you’d written if it hadn’t been for Yuchi1’s response – so thanks to Yuchi1, also!!!!! As far as I know, Far Archer thinks it would be okay to kill a Bigfoot, and I do not. Every post I write – excepting the occasional shout-out to someone -- is intended either to help someone turn their recurring encounters into a relationship, or to point out to the monster-lovers that Bigfoot is just a big Rorschach test, and that anyone who sees a “monster” in a Bigfoot is revealing to the world the monster inside THEM. Far Archer talks a lot about military matters and scientific things, neither of which I know anything about. So yeah, except for those things, we’re identical! Far Archer, I do want to say that I really admire your intelligence, your courage, and your integrity. Our hairy brethren love all those things, and if you become interested in engaging them as an equal who means them no harm, I have no doubt you’ll start to have experiences that way surpass the ones you’ve had so far, as amazing as those have been. And they have been amazing, and I’ve loved reading about them. (And if you’ve already started to go that route, my apologies; I don’t keep up with this forum in the way I used to.) And hello to Yuchi1. It’s always good to see you here!!!!! I always feel more encouraged and more hopeful when I see a new post from you. Oh, and same to DWA, JDL, and Branco!

Because he knows what he'll get from me. Don't care if I change anyone's demeanor. Dmaker has a right to his. I have no problem with it.

Yeah, it takes a lot of tech to create a wooden foot. That is quite assumptive, Mr. Never Assume. You are a walking pile of logical fallacies and contradictions. Making stuff up and never needing to support it is quite easy, I'm sure.

Footprints and undetermined hairs are physical evidence, but not proof. No picture, no matter how clear is proof. Certainly none of that is enough to satisfy a naysayer. I'm with Norseman on the stance that only a body is going to put it to rest. When I'm out in the woods on my time and my dime, I'm not there with the thought "Gee, I hasta get a good picture for Starling (or anyone else)." I'll be happy just to see one for myself. I honestly don't know of any other walk of life where it's acceptable to ask someone else to go out and get you what you want. The point of this thread is to ask why the CCP hasn't captured any pictures of Sasquatch. I've only pointed out some reasons why I think there haven't been any captures. Obviously the premise behind the OP is that there aren't any Sasquatch, but my point is simply that there are other possibilities.

This seems to have become the latest ploy: "I won't provide evidence for you." It's not just you, JC, but you've provided an example. Actually, as Starling posted, just try to provide a decent example image of bigfoot. Other than artist renditions, Patty is the go-to example, simply because of the dearth of any others. So rather than concede the point, a common response is to puff up one's chest and belittle anyone pointing out the scant amount of actual evidence. Sure, there are the occasional footprint or undetermined hairs, but physical evidence? But hey, don't dare ask anyone for that ::puff puff:: because you're too much of a city boy and you don't deserve that for which you ask (and which I'm unable to provide).

DWA defend a claim? Why start now? I predict a "rainbow rant" full of soothing colors, numerous fonts & sizes & at least 7 logical errors. I'd love to be wrong but the odds are in my favor..

Oh, that would take away the thrill he could have by actually getting off his butt and taking a look for himself. You and dmaker and others want everything handed to them on a silver platter - not surprising - in a time where no one wants to do squat themselves, but want things all wrapped up in nice packages, so that after a brief moment of examination, they can move to another cause. Skeptics are a dime a doze, as it requires no effort. A skeptic can be lazy, sleep in late, in nice soft sheets, and after a leisure cup of coffee - make their way to the keyboard for their big day. Let's see, which canned denial or refutation will I select out of the dozen I have - will I apply to this post. Semi-professional skeptics lies somewhere between acute constipation, and something like a blown out tire. They demand your attention, but they never add one iota of benefit, and only slow things down. It's a lazy man's engagement.
