What is "Para-Drama"?

Para-Drama is a phrase that describes the outcome of instigated conflict, action crisis or any
situation or series of events having vivid, emotional, disharmony or striking interest or results
that have been knowingly caused by individuals or groups in the paranormal investigation field.

It's only purpose is to
publicly create chaos, emotional distress and/or mental tension aimed at
other individuals or paranormal investigation groups that are networking on the Internet.

Sadly, there are a few paranormal investigation group founders here and there that
participate in and condone this type of behavior from members of their groups.

It kind of seems that they thrive on fabricating it and just gotta have it happening.

I have noticed that one of the many things that they do to create it is to register themselves or
their group in as many paranormal networking websites as they see fit in order to start publicly
posting their mendacious Bull S*** accusations towards other individuals or groups.

They do this to rally others into agreeing with their deceptiveness behind each manipulative
post without having any regard to the ones targeted who try and correct the barrage.
The co-conspiritors are the ones who neglect doing the research to
establish knowing the actual truth.

Targeted are any people that they just simply disagree with or don't understand.
The reason "why" can be anything - personal conflict, investigation methods, jealousies, types of
equipment or obtained evidence as well as the retaliatory or revengeful nature in some humans.
It would be discerning to say that the lack of self control plays a definitive part in this equation.

It is despairing to say that some groups, along with it's founders, don't mind creating these
unorthodox and unprofessional circumstances just to have something to do or laugh about.

Perhaps they should stop recruiting other group members to join and participate in their
Para-Drama bandwagon. Perhaps they should look in their own back yard.

Their negative activities are blatantly obvious to all.
These people should be avoided at all costs.
Feeling sorry for them is not the answer, neither is compassion or understanding.
Ignoring them is what they desire, what they need to wither and cease existing.

In their indecisive lives and lifestyles, causing Para-Drama must be the one capacity
that brings personable selfish satisfaction to them,
somewhat similar as to purposely exposing a festering wound to a terminal infection.
The degree of the Para-Drama infliction doesn't matter as the harm has already been committed.

T.Az.P.R.S. does NOT practice or condone PARA-DRAMA in any way, shape or form
and wants NO involvement in it what so ever.
IT'S AS SIMPLE AS THAT.

It's perpetrator (cause or reasoning unknown), like a vile disease invades TV, Internet radio shows
and is on certain websites and forums. It makes any paranormal group look very unprofessional
and even more, less credible.

Some "paranormal investigative groups", (by fault of it's own founders who, unfortunately, allow
it), thrive on creating it. They start the drama ball rolling by publicly "bashing" other groups,
starting rumours and posting negative comments all over the Internet's networking websites and
forums/blogs every opportunity they get.

Let us not forget the very old childish routine, "name calling". Some of them must think that if
they make others look bad, that will make them look good. Perhaps it just may be their drama
inflated egos speaking for them. Who knows, even more so, who cares?

Perhaps, (and I do say this with optimism), with a little understanding, they may still be able to get
back to the original influences of pure curiosity, wonderment and enthusiasm,
regaining lost compassion for their fellow human being, spirit and paranormal researcher.
What is sad is that they know they can change if they really wanted to.
Currently, there are many respectable and accredited hard working paranormal investigation
groups throughout the United States as well as the entire world - I hold admiration for them all.

Through research and experience, they have established excellent protocols and
personal investigative techniques that have proven to work well for each of them.

These groups have matured into the types of investigators that are the most desired by people
who are in need of validation and clarification of their personal paranormal experiences.

These are the paranormal investigation groups that will honestly be beneficial to you
in your personal paranormal experience exploration!

They have learned that selfishness, egos, competitiveness and immaturity and lack of
true passion in the paranormal investigation field, inflicts harm on themselves and
the entire paranormal community as a whole.

But then, unfortunately, there are those who seek and infect others with . . . .  
Arizona has it's share of fantastic paranormal groups whom I appreciate
and associate with.

With that being said, there are some shameful exceptions.
Now, I realize that it is obligatory that I address some drama seeking individual(s)
and their peers here in Arizona....

(waiver: I mean no disrespect in any way to anyone involved).
Apparently a founder of a group here in Arizona has been networking the Internet's vast
paranormal web sites, forums and blogs with negative, unprofessional and apocryphal posts
about the energy research and development that T.Az.P.R.S. has been conducting since 2007.
Instead of responding to each of those posts individually, I will respond here, just once,
as I really don't have time to respond to any posts exhibiting this type of redundant child's play.
Who is it? I will not say at this point. Why are they doing it? I don't know and I really don't care.
I can only hope that they will some day finally accept our research in a positive light and stop
spreading/posting false accusations about us and/or things they don't understand or obviously
don't want to ascertain about. They need to realize that in the eyes of others in this field,
they have clearly been making themselves look very unprofessional and inadequate
for a while now.

To whom this may concern: Please try and let professionalism be the main focus of your actions,
not personal immature attempts of misguided publicized retaliation.

I believe that every serious paranormal researcher will agree with me when I say that nobody has
time for this type of behavior, especially from the founder(s) of any group.
Just because they may not agree with some of our techniques and/or equipment does not mean
they need to rally others with fallacious comments about us, just so others can be agreeable
with them as to kiss their derrière.
Please understand, this isn't a fame race or competition of paranormal evidence.
T.Az.P.R.S. and E.E.R.A.D. are NOT involved in that way of reasoning and never will be!

What we are doing is conducting necessary field research!
All researchers know this requires a great deal of time, financial support, design implements,
supplies, experimentation and hypothesis testing. We do this for the paranormal investigative
community and all independent paranormal researchers alike!
Regardless of what has been posted by this or any other negative individual(s), I must finally
state AGAIN, (so that it is perfectly clear to everyone), our energy research is NOT about the
occult. We have NOT opened any portals, nor summoned any demons, nor harmed any clients, pets
or children, nor left any radioactive traces behind, nor exposed any minors to any of our
equipment (Jacob's ladder or any other energy emitting devices included) anywhere or at anytime,
EVER!
Anyone suggesting that we have or ever did has obviously strayed very, very far from the truth
and should remorsefully beseech a simpler, less complicated life!
UL listings are required for general public use devices only.
Our devices are under research and not intended to be sold to or used by anyone of the general
public, therefore, are not required to be UL listed.

We investigate and validate claims of paranormal activity via audio,
video and digital still pictures and personal experiences.
Our E.E.R.A.D. research has indeed yielded us positive results from the experimental equipment
utilized and to put it simply, the obtained
results speak for themselves.

So, once again, I will politely ask you to cease continuance of your attempts to publicly
manipulate members of the paranormal community and general public with your antagonistic posts
about our energy research. It is very apparent that your efforts really haven't put you in a
commendable honorable light lately, has it?

The only "mess" that requires cleaning up after is the "mess" that is started and fueled by
drama seeking characters of this nature. Ameliorate this by cleaning up your own mess.
"So PLEASE, drama inflicted one. Kick back and relax. Let it go and just say no to para-drama".
"No one really cares or has time for it anymore".

Paranormal Drama - television shows:

You can have a cameo on a show, have a line or two to say, have a few pictures taken with the cast
of the show, but so what. When it comes down to it, no one cares, really. Falling into the "Drama
for Entertainment" farce is turning out to be more damaging than anything else. That is what the
show's producers want, having no regard to the person, his personal credibility or the outcome,
(Public ramifications of botched attempted deceptions included).
We have not and will not take a standard investigation protocol procedure,
label it with our name, claim it to be our novel "method" and advertise it to the
whole world as being so.
It is blatantly obvious that most paranormal television shows are manipulated for the purpose of
ratings as well as to provide the public with dramatic entertainment using a subject that is
one of an extremely personal nature to individuals whom have experienced it.
Remember, the majority of the people on these shows are not the
paranormal experts/paranormal authority that they claim to be, NO ONE IS!
How can anyone be "paranormal experts" when in actuality, NO ONE CAN BE?
People with vast experience are still looking for answers to questions of the unknown.
The fact that some inexperienced people in the paranormal investigating community
self-proclaim themselves as being undocumented experts or think they are generally better than
anyone else in this field because of them being on a "show" or ANY other reason is just a blatant
embarrassment for the rest of us hard working researchers.
That situation just makes presenting evidence of actual paranormal activity to non witnesses
more difficult for them, or anyone else for that matter, to accept as being such.
Now, for some old run of the mill type of (what some folks would call) regular mediocre drama
(but, in reality, it's just some simple comedic overflow),
