2012hoax

I've been making occasional visits to the forums at december212012.com "The Official Website for 122112 Information" or, more correctly "The Official Website for 122112 Doom Information" but strictly as a lurker and have been noticing (not surprisingly) an increasing number of postings questioning the site, saying "we are seeing no signs", etc.

I hadn't had a look for a couple of days so I thought I'd go in search of some humour and see whether the comments were getting more and more annoyed and the mods getting more and more desperate. However, I was greeted with this notice:

The forum is permanently disabled. Will explain on Facebook page soon

So, a look at the Facebook page revealed:

Because of perceived threats and recent extremist events that have occurred in the United States and China, it has become necessary to disable our site forum. Current forum members are not under suspicion or in threat of investigation. I am in complete cooperation with requesting parties and cannot, and will not comment on this matter any further.

PLEASE PEOPLE… I'm begging you. Do not overreact or make any rash decisions regarding Dec 21st. Anyone who knows anything about the 2012 prophecies, including myself, does not believes that the world is going to end. This date simply marks the end of an era and the beginning of a new. This is an exciting time for our planet and we should consider ourselves blessed to be alive and able to experience a fantastic new existence.

This is right out of the Nancy Lieder Handbook, under the heading "Things going pear-shaped. Blame world events". And they're also now firmly into the "We never really said anything would happen" camp.
All totally predictable.

The critical comments seem to be coming into the Facebook page thick and fast. No doubt that will be shut down and blamed on the government (US or Chinese?) Read it while you can.

PS.
If you want to know what they were really saying 18 months ago, the Internet Archive Wayback Machine is very useful.

Wow, finally. Proves all of this doomsday crap is finally debunked :).

lol, I checked there too earlier today and was suprised the forum was ''disabled''
I bet they just leave it be and never open it, or just acting like something still will happen ''soon''

the people on that forum out there are funny :')

Sheesh, they don't even know what the Mayans meant… they can't even get basic facts right when they start to backpedal… it's silly and I'm glad they just admitted they were wrong.

That's too funny.

I know dude :D.

In case it disappears, Geryl style, here's a noteworthy comment from their Facebook page:

Claire Snedeker "Anyone who knows anything about the 2012 prophecies, including myself, does not believes that the world is going to end.

You spent YEARS and YEARS on that forum talking about "Nibiru", "Elenin", polar shifts, solar storms, supervolcanoes, etc, all of which were supposedly going to devastate our planet and life as we know it. The loonies on your message boards were talking about fleeing to the mountains, stockpiling weapons, food, supplies, learning self defense, building bunkers, forming survival communities, buying gas masks, anti-radiation pills. You pushed survival books and survival kits. Now you're singing a completely different song. You should all be ashamed of yourselves. If you now truly believe that whatever happens on 12/21 is going to lead to "a fantastic new existence" then you owe an apology to all of the people who have been frightened by your fearmongering these past years. Are you aware that some schoolchildren have been so frightened by your "doomsday" theories that they've contemplated suicide, and that one young lady actually did it? Again, you should be ashamed of yourselves.

I think the IRS should investagate every person that made money on this and tax the balls out of them. Then donate the money to mental health research. Wishful thinking but everyone needs a dream.

Lol, look at their disclaimer- http://www.december212012.com/Disclaimer.htm

I'm just giddy. Absolutely giddy. Now for Patrick. Though his lady puppet still seems to be holding firm. Slooh is watching the sun and magnetic field all day tomorrow though; he can't hold on much longer.
