Just wanted to say I think this is an interesting topic.  I remember hearing something that our brain is similiar to a camera, it's constantly taking "pictures", and these "pictures" are printed into our memory, thus making memories...

Well it was something like that...

Bah!  I can't even get my Pendulum to work! It just sits there!

Thanks, I will have to check that out.

Zakaroth,

You completely missed the point of my post. Here, I'll cut and paste the point of it so YOU can understand it.

This is how Kibegginersnightmare is. I never respond to his posts. In fact, I haven't even read half them. After figuring out that most of the posts he has made are pretty much nonsense, and that the two pages of posts following them are from other members telling him to stop posting, well I just don't see that it's worth my time. All his posts tend to follow the same pattern, and those of you who continue to post on the topics he starts, are FEEDING him with attention. It doesn't matter if it is positive or negative attention, he's enjoying it, if he wasn't he would've stopped by now. It's my belief that if everyone stopped posting after his posts, he would eventually grow bored of this forum and leave. But as long this is still an entertaining playground for him, he will stay.

IN OTHER WORDS...

If you keep responding to his posts, he will keep doing it!

zakaroth, Kibegginersnightmare is a child.  

Let's look at the things he does, shall we?

1. He makes a LOT of posts which have little to NO meaning as in they don't make much sense (and they are not always relative to the board in wich he puts them on). Many of wich are no more than 3 words.

2. Many People on these forums have complained and asked him to stop but he continues.

Now, at the tender age of 12, children tend to go through a transition.  They either stay in their child-like state of mind or they begin to progress into what we would consider "adult-hood".  In other words, some start to mature, whereas a lot of them won't for at least a few more years. In the case of Kibegginersnightmare, he has obviously not reached that point where his mind starts to focus on a more mature thought pattern. So mentally, he is still a child.

From my personal expierences children will do a lot to get attention. My three year old, for example will not follow directions, a great example, I will tell her to sit on the couch and watch her cartoon while I cook dinner.  She will sit there for about 5 minutes then get up and go do something, whether it be harrassing the cat, getting into something that her daddy has out, or being in the kitchen and telling me she wants to cook me dinner. It's really cute for the most part but on the other hand, having a toddler run around your feet while your trying to cook, is a pain in the butt!  While she's doing this I have to tell her again to sit down and watch her cartoon, otherwise I'm going to turn it off.  If I do turn it off, she starts crying.  When all she really wants is the attention of her mommy.

But hey, that is just what I think.

I agree on the Cliff Notes!!  I stare at computer screen all day long at school (finishing a degree in Network Engineering).  Then trying to read everything is hard on the eyes... And it doesn't help that Parmenion writes as much as MAYATNIK.  I don't mean that in a bad way, whereas he is just as thorough as MAYATNIK, it is just all very very long

Ok

a) What was your first impression when you came across this site ?
b) How easy was it for you to post a topic ?
c) How did you feel afterwards ?

a) First impressions never last but at first... These people are nuts, it is all very different... and I find it interesting... and I still think some of you are nuts.
b) I don't like posting, it makes me feel uncomfortable most times...
c) I just don't like posting... I prefer to ask individuals whom seem to know what they're talking about.  Someone with expierence.

'What is REAL? How do you define REAL? If REAL is what you can taste, touch, see, and smell, then REAL is simply electrical signals interperted by your brain.'- sinestro

Nice quote from the Matrix

"HOW CAN YOU GO SOMEWHERE THAT YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN TO BEFORE, I MEAN IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE AN SENSE."-sinestro

That doesn't make any sense... I had never been to California before September 2001, but I am here now...  I don't see why someone can not go somewhere they've never been.  Let me put it like this, get in your car and just start driving.  Keep going and going until you have no idea where you are.  How did you get there?  How could you possiblely go there since you had never been there before?

"No they are not wrong, a beleif is a beleif. Therefore it is what you beleive in. So it is not WRONG and it is not RIGHT, it is simply what you beleive in. Now I may not agree with your beleif on OBE's, but that does not make it wrong. It just means that I don't beleive in it, that is all." -Sinestro

"Don't you see Frère OBE's are NOT REAL! They are all just a Dream, just like NDE's are too." -sinestro

Contradiction there... If someone believes something is real then who are you to say that it is not?  You had said that "no they are not wrong, a belief is a belief"  but before that you insisted that OBE's are not real.  If it is their belief that it is real, then it must be for them to insist on.

Just something I noticed, and wanted to comment on.

Thanks for the Advice... I just hate posting...

It's been moved to the defense forum.

While searching for something on the internet I came upon this site yesterday. I started reading a couple of the posts and ended up reading for almost 10 hours; different posts on different topics.

I read one post that sounded similiar to something I had expierenced several years ago.  The post was by SiN, and I found it interesting that she's the same age as I was when I had expierenced some of things that she seems to be going through right now.

I don't know what is wrong with me, to put it simply.

I think the best way to put it would be to say that I was "attacked". It was a Tuesday night, the last time I remember seeing my alarm clock it was around 12:45am.  I'm not sure what the rest of you refer to it as, but it started happening when my body and mind were half asleep.  I was sleeping, but was concious at the same time, so I had no problems thinking clearly.  All of a sudden, it felt like my body was being shaken violently. I couldn't move, I could barely breathe. Looking around my bedroom, there was a constant light flashing very fast, it looked like there was a strobe light going off. My heart was beating so fast and hard I thought it was going to pound out of my chest, and there was this sound, something between a loud buzzing and a roaring... kind of like being in a cave with a river flowing above you. It lasted for about three hours.  When it was finally over I had never in all my life felt so completely drained.  I remember thinking that all I wanted to do at that moment was to die, to just sleep. I was seventeen years old.  That was the first time, and the longest time that has ever happened.  It happened a lot of other times over the next few months, but by then I had managed a way to make it stop shortly after it had begun, just by using willpower. That was in early spring, March or April, but in October, something similiar but very different happened...this is how I can relate to SiN.  I was lying in bed half asleep, when suddenly there were other people in my room.  Three of them, all young men.  There were two sitting in front of me, and one behind me on the bed.  I didn't know who the two were, nor could I see their faces because they were just big black "blobs". But I knew who the third was behind me.  They were talking about some girl that they had raped, or were going to rape.  I know something was behind me, I could feel the heat comeing from it, as if there really was another body behind me.  In "reality" there really wasn't anyone in the room with me. Then suddenly the two in front me like melted away and to replace them was something like a little dwarf and some kind of fairy looking creature.  Then I had these visions flashing before my eyes.  I was standing on this huge rock, kind of like a mountain or a cliff and there was lightning coming out of my hands going towards the sky, and I remember hearing something say or getting the impression of words in my head, that I had locked them away.  But these little guys were not happy and they wanted revenge.  I got the impression that I had "locked them up" a LONG time ago... I'm talking about thousands and thousands of years ago.  While all this was going on, I had the sensation of the first time something had happened like this.  My heart was pounding, I couldn't move or call out for help.  This wasn't the first "vision" that I had had, but it was the first one that had lasted for any amount of time.  The first one only happened for a matter of seconds and it was this little old gnarled up woman jumping out at from nowhere, trying to reach for my throat.  And once again, it started out the same, my heart pounding, trouble breathing, the sound in my ears... those three "symptoms" are always there along with not being able to move or call out for help.  

Things went away for a while... I didn't have anything like that happen to me for almost two years.  Once in awhile it would start, but I never had any problems of stopping it as soon as I realized what was happening.  But, they have recently started up again.  About seven months ago, it was around January 15th, it happened, for the first time in a long time.  This time there were beings there... and there was this really loud buzzing in my left ear, I was lying down on my right side.  I was too afraid to open my eyes, that's never happened before.  I just remember that it felt like something was being forced into my head through my left ear.  When I "woke up" I had a really bad ear ache for the rest of the day.  I didn't have anymore cases until last week... Every night last week it happened, and it was always at the same time.  

Just for the record, every instance I described above happened in different homes, and in two different states. I don't do drugs and I rarely drink.  So, If anyone has any idea on whats going on, I'd like to hear it... I don't really like posting on boards, so bear with me.
