Photos of earth

[Photo hound]

Hey, coming in I was on the fence. I was never cranky, just looking to clarify. But now I have seen what a bunch of assholes you people are. What you all accomplished was make me believe that it was a hoax; only because of your shitty attitudes. Now who's going to be cranky? Not me....I will not take part anymore in your fucking hang man games. Good bye!

[gillianren]

You made an affirmative statement about what existed.  For a full page, people showed that you were wrong.  Yes, I was surly, though also right.  You then made another affirmative statement, with no clarification of what exactly "realistic looking" meant.  You still haven't acknowledged those.  "Thank you" would be a good place to start.

I don't believe you were on the fence when you arrived here. I think you're either a true hoax believer, or more likely, just common variety troll. Be careful not to let the door hit you in the ass on your way out!

Is this one of the regular hoaxers, or a new one?

Hey, coming in I was on the fence.

No, you weren't.  People who legitimately want to know something listen carefully when they're told that their questions are wholly misconceived.  They want to know, and they want to ask the right questions.  You slapped everyone across the face with your preconceptions and refused to be told differently than what you already believed.

What you all accomplished was make me believe that it was a hoax; only because of your shitty attitudes.

That's how we know you weren't really on the fence.  If that obvious non sequitur is your "proof" of a hoax then you got the excuse you came here to get.  You got pages of factual responses and discussion, including corrections to your misconceptions.  You swept it all aside and dove straight into the personal recriminations.

A personal favourite...

As an electrical and communications engineer who was inspired into the field partly by Apollo, AS11-40-5923HR has to be my favorite. It shows the LM S-band antenna pointed back at earth. At the time, the fact that we were seeing and hearing what was happening live via that antenna amazed me as much as the fact that humans were on the moon.

Sometimes people here have, in the past, gone too far, but, honestly, all I see here is a bunch of sour grapes and a severe case of the flounce on your part, Photo hound.
You said there was only one of something, and you got proven wrong.
If there was some teasing on your account, it was because you were so atrociously, audaciously wrong, in ways you so very easily yourself could have worked out, but no, you barge in here, ask loaded questions with no interest in actually learning or becoming less ignorant, and run away when people prove you wrong.
Sadly, typical.

You said there was only one of something, and you got proven wrong.

Politely so, I might add.  The first page and most of the second (including Gillianren's allegedly snarky response) is a quite civil recitation of the available data, some necessary and well-meant requests for clarification, and a correction of the central misunderstandings.

Photo hound made three essential points.  First he asserted that only one picture of Earth was taken from the lunar surface.  Second he asked for additional photos of Earth taken by the astronauts (no qualification there that they had to be from the lunar surface -- that came later).  Third he asked why there weren't more.

All these three points were met.  The initial assertion was proven wrong, whereupon the rest of the post could have been dismissed according to a subversion of its support.  Additional Apollo photos of Earth were quickly provided; only later were the criteria refined to mean only those taken from the lunar surface.  And finally, a discussion ensued regarding the propriety of photographing Earth from the Moon's surface using the general-purpose still cameras.  In short, the poster's question was answered quickly, thoroughly, and with appropriate decorum.

Sadly, typical.

It is indeed sadly typical of a recent spate of posters who seem to demand that they have been abused by the regulars no matter what.  Photo Hound is arrogant and dismissive.  Not someone "on the fence."

What? Proving you wrong means you're right?

Do you honestly think this type of approach is a new one?

"Hey I'm not saying it was a hoax. but isn't if funny that [insert dumb premise here]" followed shortly afterwards by "a-ha, well, it seems to me that [insert standard conspiracy BS here]".

You made a statement that clearly demonstrates ignorance of the subject and an inability to use search engines and you got your ass handed to you. Grow up.

[nomuse]

Something oddly familiar about that one. I don't mean the common hoaxie approach path, or the commonality of claims and complaints. I mean something about the use of language that's making my sock radar go "ping."

Just as likely a false signal, though. I've got the sensitivity on that thing turned way too high.

Hey, coming in I was on the fence. I was never cranky, just looking to clarify. But now I have seen what a bunch of a$$$$$$$ you people are. What you all accomplished was make me believe that it was a hoax; only because of your s$$$$$ attitudes. Now who's going to be cranky? Not me....I will not take part anymore in your $$$$$$$ hang man games. Good bye!

Sadly I wasn't around earlier to help all the 'a$$$$$$$'s here to run you off, as you clearly deserved to be judging by this last post in which you reveal yourself as not only an incompetent 'researcher', but foul-mouthed as well.  You could only find one image?  And after all that information was spoon fed to you, instead of thanking those who helped prove you 100% wrong, it is a supposedly 's$$$$$ attitude' that is the basis for you to judge truth or falsehood?    That's just laughable, and you deserve to be ripped off by the scamming predators who run the Apollo denial websites - they do it precisely for ignorant pretenders just like you.  Please waste your time and money as much as possible on supporting them, for you deserve each other.

Don't let the door hit you as you flounce.. and I think I can speak for all when I say we aren't cranky - you are quite entertaining, in a sad train-wreck sorta way...

BTW - Does an IP check reveal anything familiar, LO?

Wow, the indignant flounce, nobody saw that coming!

[raven]

Is three posts a new record for a full on flounce? There has been seagulls, by definition, with less, but a full on 'Oh you brutes!' flounce?

Congratulations.  With that method of reasoning, you demonstrated that you applied more critical thought to the hoax theory than 99% of your cohorts.

Hey, coming in I was on the fence.

With a bag of stones to begin chucking.

I was never cranky, just looking to clarify.

People her clarified.

But now I have seen what a bunch of assholes you people are.

Cry me a river.

What you all accomplished was make me believe that it was a hoax; only because of your ****** attitudes.

I guess we've also helped you believe the world is a disc in space based on the photos, and sometimes that disc is not a full disc. Sometimes it's a crescent, sometimes it is half a disc.

Now who's going to be cranky? Not me....

Now I'm confused.

I will not take part anymore in your ******* hang man games.

Shame, I had one for you.

goodbye!

Have a lovely day.
