Dealing with 2012 hoaxers

Dealing with 2012 hoaxers

obaeyens 03 Apr 2011 16:28

It appears that my Elenin clip on Youtube attracted 2012 hoaxers.
That is ok but they are sending me private mails with the same stuff that has been debunked here again over and over again.

I am wondering if they do this on purpose to keep me busy answering them in these mails, so I cannot produce new evidences.

Any tips on how to best deal with this?

My plan is to only discuss this in public and not private mails.
My plan is not to go into debate with 2012 hoaxers but keep on concentrated to the evidences only without going back and forth with replies to replies to 2012 hoaxers. Debating is pointless, when you have real scientific based facts that can be peer reviewed. They can always provide their evidence and I will look at it when I have the time.

If you forget them, they will say that you gave up and agree with them. However, even if you answer these mails, they will keep ranting at you. It's a double-edged sword.

My plan is to only discuss this in public and not private mails.

So, instead of discussing with them in private mails, just provide a link to your clip, that they probably didn't watch and they will watch it. Also, say that the facts are pretty clear and nothing will happen. Maybe they won't bother you anymore.

I think I am not going into the debating loop.
I really think they do this on purpose to sidetrack you and also an technique to introduce doubt with other people that reads the posts.
It also gives them new information they can then put on their clips to attack you.
I saw that ping-pong at the NASA hoax thing.

I am also going to avoid any 2012 hoaxers names in my clips, to stay neutral and facts based.

One thing that I did notice is that the moment you use maths, the communication instantly drops dead and they avoid you. LOL

That's how I deal with them. I refer them to the site, and if they start ranting, I ignore them.

Life's too short.

I usually refer people to this site when answering on Y!A.

I refer to people here. But they don't even bother with the link.

No. YouTube and Facebook.
