Everyone bitches about /x/ being shit, so what do you consider the best of the best?
What is you favorite x related topic/creepypasta/theory?
Share related pic, links, description, why you like it, etc.
It doesn't have to be entirely supernatural. Anything spooky, mystical, conspiracy theory related, science fiction etc.
I like the idea of dimensions. What would a 5th dimensional creature appear to be to us? A 6th? So on? Are there unfathomable creatures navigating through inter dimensional space time as we speak? Are these just what we consider to be "deity's" to some extent?
Anyways here's a cool video about dimensions.

I collect, vet, and upload over five thousand occult texts, and tend to think the board's fine, other than maybe having a few more folks willing to report blatantly off topic bullshit and/or spam (sometimes I feel like the only one doing it, and when I ask people complaining about this or that thread if they've reported it, I often hear the garbage excuse of "not my job" and "it doesn't work", both of which are not the case).
>>17842143
Your post is a prime example of why /x/ is shit tbpfhwy

Remember when Reviewbrah replied to us and played his number station recordings and stuff? He said he spent some nights in the haunted hotel that inspired The Shining (but didn't experience anything). But yeah that was cool. The recordings were cool too.

Also - we had a real paranormal research team of ghost hunters come by last year and do live updates during an investigation. They were actually on Ghost Adventures in one episode I believe.

Found the thread.

I like this board too. This could be a good thread if everyone participated.

A bit harsh, Dude...
Is /x/ files bro still around?

Shit I should have searched the archive first - good news he is still here!
>>17826894
I think /x/ is going to be just fine.
>>17842143
Cryptids, UFOs, investigations and creepy experiences threads are the best of /x/, in my opinion.
Also, people think /x/ is shit because its population is composed in an 80% of underage newfags that never lurked and never assimilated the posting etiquette of the site.
>>17842153
>real paranormal research
What an oximoron.
I missed it, damn. I wish I was here more often. At least I didn't missed Toy Maker.
>>17842143
/x/ as always been shit. A huge part of the problem is that the discussion of the paranormal attracts a lot of underaged people since adults usually don't believe in this sort of stuff. I'm not saying it's a childish topic, I'm just saying that younger people are more gullible, and thus, more likely to believe what they see here, even if it's obviously bullshit. On the flip side, there's also a lot of people here trying to prove themselves to everyone else as if anyone gives a shit. You know the type, that guy who comes into a thread and starts shitting everything up by saying how smart and logical he is, and skeptically dismissing everything even though he willingly entered a board for the discussion of the paranormal.
Also, this place is full of Redditors/Tumblr users. Now, I know, people say this about every board, and those sites are 4chan's scapegoat for everything bad, but I know for a fact that there's a lot of people from those places in here in here. But it becomes very evident when you see people more preocupied with being a smartass and posting memes rather than actually contributing with something relevant to the threads, as if they're expecting to get upvotes.
And lastly, /b/ crossposters. They're all over /x/ and they've allways been all over /x/, and they drag the board's quality down considerably.

This. So much this.

What really sucks is that the people that do try to make OC generally suck at it.

A classic staple of every paranormal board on the net. People with very low self esteem who feel the need to pick low hanging fruit, but they forget that they're arguing semantics about things that are technically fantastic by nature. The fruit they're picking is imaginary. They have special needs that can't be met by arguing with people anywhere else because that requires real effort - not that scoffing at people on the internet isn't already the easiest thing in the world. It's just particularly easy on paranormal boards.
I'll start off by saying I've been browsing /x/ since around 06-07 and there used to be a lot of really interesting shit, info dumps, digging through metric mega shit tons of number station recordings and data, weird photos, good stories, and odd theories about lots of original ideas. The problem with /x/ is there really is no honesty to anything anymore. I mean sure there's lots of bullshit, and most things are probably coincidental, but at least people tried to be competent adults about everything. I'm ex military and I have a pretty decent grasp on reality, and sometimes you hear some pretty crazy yet believable stuff. It's apparent that no one on /x/ tries hard anymore. Tulpas aren't paranormal, role playing is terribly obvious, people still belive satanism is dangerous, and no one tries to have logical conversations about anything mildly interesting.

I'm sorry, I've been here about as long as you have, and maybe there were times when threads could be taken more seriously, but you clearly don't remember things as well as you think you do. /x/ has always had "shit cycles", as I call them, not to mention the countless raids from /b/ and other boards.
The cool thing about the paranormal is that it's a universal topic.
Paranormal topics aren't really hobbies or special interests, they're just something that every human being knows about. Everyone knows about ghosts, aliens, bigfoot, stuff like that. So everyone from every other board will usually end up in /x/ at least once. This means it's impossible to become a circle jerk here, which is good.
>>17847599
Uh, no, pretty much everything you just said is wrong.
>Everyone knows about ghosts, aliens, bigfoot, stuff like that.
Other countries and cultures have their own myths and paranormal tales that might not include these at all.
>So everyone from every other board will usually end up in /x/ at least once.
Nope. People who don't have much interest in the topic only come here to troll or avoid /x/ like the plague. Only if someone is mildly superstitious or has their own "real" paranormal story to share will they come here, if they don't already have an interest in /x/ related topics.
>This means it's impossible to become a circle jerk here, which is good.
And this is how I know you're new.
>>17847753
You seem like a very miserable person.
In this exact order:
>horror
>psychological horror
>abandoned places
>desolation in general
>deep ocean stuff
>post-life
Note that when you try to get into post-life stuff, it'll always get cancerous and soon you have the vampire fags with succubi in tow, so those are all the general themes I can list without listing cancer.
>lost media
>unsolved mysteries
>actual* occult
>secret agendas
>actual cults
>everything** death
>spooky streams
>found footage
>censored media
>mythical places
>cryptids
>ET visitation
>dreams
>UFOs
For mythical places, it's mostly the legend of Atlantis because of both my understand and mermaid fetishes, but flat/hollow Earth count too, cancer though they sometimes be. Most UFO stuff is trash too, so I end up minimizing it even if I'm otherwise interested.
* As in, not the "surface" occult shit you see in the magick general. Occult means hidden, so jacking off to some published neckbeard isn't the same.
** Except suicide. If you're here to make a thread about killing yourself, kill yourself.
>>17848464
Note that the top list is meant to be highly inclusive. If there's anything even remotely horror related about it, that is, if you can find any way to make it into a horror story, then it's top /x/ material.
Earlier today I saw a thread >>17847273 asking about people's fear and it got deleted. I don't know if it's the mods or a janitor or OP self-deleting their thread, but that's prime /x/ material. If you can imagine a world where nothing paranormal had ever existed, neither as a myth or a real experience, then it would be the discussion of each others fear that would bring the board to life. In lieu of any other type of activity on /x/, that would be what brought up from a blank slate to a spooky, /x/-worthy board.
I also meant to put succubus somewhere between cryptids and dreams. The second list is not meant to be inclusive, exclusive, or complete. There are a ton of paranormal topics I'd never be able to list, or that even have a real name yet. If you can find a way to cram it into the top list in any way, then it belongs on /x/. If it's not on the second list and needs to be added, go ahead and add it. Creepy/paranormal things aren't restricted by any list, definition, model of reality, belief system, idea, culture, tradition, or god.
Succubus threads for me are about the pics, and if it's just a "how to summon tulpa" Q&A then I don't really care. /x/ must tolerate your beliefs or there would be no /x/.
Bumping so I can load some shit into this thread shortly

I never once said that it doesn't have its cycles, yes /x/ has its bad go arounds. And of course raids always sucked, but you don't seem to understand that /x/ officially hasn't been good in years. There were periods of time, many months in length where /x/ was worth a damn, /x/ has lost its way and has been utter trash for years. There are not shit cycles anymore, /x/ is just shit. I keep coming here in hopes we can unfuck ourselves, but you can wish in one and and piss in the other, just don't wipe your face with the piss hand.
There was a guy who decoded signals his grandpa had recorded on tapes with a ham radio. There were black and white images of engineer looking guys in a cave with a floating vehicle at the center. Some text also got decoded from the signals. It was cool to follow. I wish I saved the images.
