oh for gods sake if you have to continually quote other people because you cant think of anything to say theres no point really is there icon_rolleyes.gif

You were the ones getting on your high horses, slagging ghost off and saying he wasnt wanted here, though i dont see how and when you became public speaker for the rest of the forum.

Stephen - If you don't believe in God then that is your decision. I don't find what i say offensive at all. What i do find offensive and rude is the amount of posts on here i just read through that were indeed very rude. I am as intrigued as the next person at Michael's posts and shall be looking forward to them.

I wont be doing any readings on here again I shall be doing them on my own site once it's ready. I have nothing at all to prove to any skeptics. Those who believe Do Those who do not then fair enough. Over the years I have helped to pass on comforting information to those who have lost relatives and friends who have crossed into spirit.

Mootska, I have no desire to argue with you. It's this kind of confrontational attitude that upset me this morning when reading the posts. And yes, I did read them, including yours. However there are simply so many to skim through that seeing the wood for the trees is difficult - thanks for directing me back to your post for a 2nd viewing. It's appreciated. I still feel like I missed something important though, but hey ho, that's life! icon_biggrin.gif

Excuse me, you are always, always running people down no matter what their comment, i think maybe you and micah need to re read all of your posts and see just how patrioninsing you sound.

Well said honey

I certainly didnt apoint anyone to speak on my behalf and thats what is really getting my goat up.

If I want to sepak I will, I dont need anyone to do it for me.

Some of the things that have been said (on behalf of the group) such as "this disscussion board does not take responsabilty for the reading of Ghost" or something to that effect. I dont ever remember saying this. This comment was the view of just a few people not the Group!!!!!

TO ALL WHO ARE HERE
Can I make two suggestions?
1.Before posting ask yourself"Is this likely to upset someone?"If the answer is yes change it.
2.Don't be paranoid.No one is picking on you.

Remember we are here for MICHAEL.

Mooska,

I certainly didnt know we had a speaker for the group and i certainly didnt realise we were a group!

I, as alot of others came on here to hear a story. The story has got some what waylaid. I am angry that Michael posted on the chat forum last night as i said i feel he should have posted as he did before,then we could all have listerned to him.

Why would you think i was bitching??? I was saying how i feel or is that not allowed?

await your response

Ghost is more than welcome to stay, as long as we have no new predictions or readings that upset people! and how bout changing that type to normal. No need to shout.

Justme, we'll be happy to send an update of anything that happens over night to your private message box so your kept up to speed!

Thats the point we are trying to make, but in a few more words lol!!!!!

I'm not interested in reading the songs that where sung last night while people where sat around some cyber camp fire.

I just want to see the interesting posts which is what this board is here for. Everyone can sing to their hearts content in the chatroom.

Hi Janet - those are two very sensible suggestions you made, thanks! Unfortunately, however carefully opinions are expressed it seems to me that someone will always feel upset - human nature gets in the way. I think we should all try to calm down a little, and remember why we're here. Hopefully in a few days we'll all have read the book and have more to talk about!

Ghost - I'm not a religious person, but I can appreciate that you are trying to spread a little peace and I appreciate that.

Again why are you speaking on out behalf. "Ghost is more than welcome to stay" who are you to say that he can stay or not. I dont really think its up to you!!!!!

Thanks for the offer Mootska, but there's no need. I'll be happy to read it all on the forum just as I have been doing.

yeah Claire we became a group over the week-end. We have a couple of believers, a couple of sceptics, and those who sit on the fence. Some are brilliiant when it comes to computers, some of our experts have stengths concerning spiritual matters, some have neither and contribute their own unique style to this forum. We all want the truth and we will get it. We're all together in this, genuine concern was shown when Eebs was upset by Ghost (at the time was lying that he was a dead man - u can imagine hoe Eebs felt).

We have become quite tight in the last few days.

And every circus needs a ringmaster.

I took that role!

As I stated neither Michael or Ghost/Bob has a problem with my unique style of commentating.

Badger, your right it was a happy wee meet of interested souls with a genuine interest in this subject (with the exception of Shahid and Micah's stand off last night - won't discuss it here, anyone for a new discussion thread). It seems that has changed only today!

Hello everyone

I've been closely following this story since the beginning, and in principle I've found it a very interesting read.

However, I've several complaints about the way the thread has panned out.

First off, I have to agree the whole thing is very cliquey these days, and the thread has become completely clogged up with people coming in with nothing to say other than they're off to bed, down the pub, hanging out the washing etc etc. If everyone restricted their posts to Michael and his story, which is, after all, what the whole thread is about life would be so much simpler.

Ghost should have started his own thread instead of bringing a story to the forum which none of us could follow easily - he's dead, he's a ghost, oh sorry no he isn't etc etc. Another reason the thread, which people started to come to because they wanted more of Michael's story, has become impossible to read. My personal feelings about the validity of Ghost's claims will remain private, but another reason for the thread being so long and disjointed is people demanding to know what colour knickers Auntie Flo was wearing the day she passed on (Saturday was the worst day) and the subsequent badmouthing by the I Believe and It's Pants factions at one another. This behaviour wouldn't be tolerated at a Spiritualist meeting.

Finally I just wanted to say how disappointed I am to read that I won't be able to get a copy of the e-book because I failed to spot the post that said you needed to be registered days ago to receive one. This was the result of my thoughts wandering during the pointless exchanges I've been reading - how many more missed out for the same reason?

"ghost is more than welcome to stay"

Speaking for me again, I enjoy Ghosts posting he certainly made sense for ebjeebe. I dont belive in God at all but he can have his opinion.

Micah, I cant belive you have the cheek to say have we not got a sense of humour when you made a couple of racist comments last nite which I didnt find funny at all. Defend yourself over that ! icon_evil.gif
