It's no secret the paranormal research field is a controversial one. The debate over whether or not paranormal activity is real or not is extremely polarizing. On a daily basis teams are faced with skepticism and criticism. Critics can be downright mean. It's not unheard of for a team to be called frauds or scam artists. NHPI has been attacked in this manner several times... and we are not alone.
Teams are criticized on a daily basis and it's an absolute shame. Our primary goal as paranormal investigators and researchers is to help people. We're out there to help anyone and everyone who is experiencing paranormal activity. At the end of the day we all share the same goal. And, in a perfect world all the teams would work together toward that common objective. Unfortunately we don't live in a perfect world.
All too often individual team members and even entire teams turn on each other. There are seemingly endless postings on social media sites calling each other frauds, scam artists, or worst of all... personal attacks. There is absolutely no place for any of it. We are all in this together, and in order for our field to grow, thrive, and gain credibility, teams have to work as one... not against each other.
Paranormal unity and open communication among teams is crucial to the success and survival of this amazing field of ours, so I would ask each and every one of you to stop and think before you do or say something negative about one of your peers... stop and think about the greater good.
