Does it matter where it is if you don't respond to fucking anyone, Rob? This isn't your soapbox and you know it. I'm a little fucking pissed that I took the time to watch those godawful fucking long videos and you just completely ignored my, and everyone else's, responses. For the record, I'd have moved it to a blog section, but I think we only discussed it and didn't implement it. It didn't belong in lifestyle. It does belong in skepticism and pseudoscience, but in my opinion, it doesn't belong anywhere because you're just fucking stream of conscience posting your opinion. This is a forum, dude, not your Facebook. Gah!

Oh I see, you’re butthurt I haven’t replied to you. It’s a total lie that I haven’t responded to anyone. I didn’t realise there were quotas.
It’s sad you’re abusing your position as staff to try and diminish my message.

Your message is absurdist nonsense. Nobody is abusing their position as staff. You're delusional and only interested in the sound of your own voice.

Fuck you, Rob. If I was trying to diminish your position, I wouldn't have tried to engage you. If you're just now seeing that I'm aggravated that you're not replying, you definitely haven't been reading the responses in your own thread, peckerhead. FYI, staff discussed what the best place for this thread would be, so get over yourself.

Rob, you're way too confident in your theory. Would've been better for you if you just stuck to discussing this with us and encouraging us to do some research with you to see if there was anything you might've said that was based on some false premise(s) and/or not exactly the most parsimonious explanation for what happened. The way you're going about this, you don't appear to be open to correction and it looks to me like you've already made up your mind that you can't be wrong no matter what. From my perspective, it feels like you've fallen into the trap of confirmation bias and thereby behaving exactly like how a typical conspiracy theorist would behave, and having fact-checked a couple of claims you've argued for in this thread, I haven't been swayed from this perspective yet.
Maybe this is a way to escape from the harshness of reality and letting your anxiety do the speaking for you. FWIW, I think you're normally a very good critical thinker, and even the best critical thinkers can falter in their thinking from time to time. So there's no disappointment on my part, because I understand the frailty of human nature all too well. No one, including me and anyone else in this thread, is immune to cognitive biases and poor thinking.

I mean, the evidence really isn't very solid as to what happened to her. It doesn't do too much good to speculate a lot. But I small scale cover ups and framings do happen. Way more than people realize

Hmmm, for me being of the position of staff, your words are poison. I believe the parents have some explaining to do, I am portuguese that little girl disappearance is sadly unsoilved.
You are way out of line in my book, to attack members that may belong to the staff for their opinion on this matter.
You lost all reason.

True but in no way was this "small scale".

Rob, imagine for a minute that you logged into AF and saw this thread posted by a drive-by theist. What would your impressions be?
