Probably the most useful skill is to just be a pattern matcher. An insight that flips the dialogue onto the right direction can be very useful, someone else can dot the 't's and cross the 'i's. Our butterfly case come to mind - that was right out of left field, and entirely bang on. Welcome!I'm in academia. I honestly don't know enough bout math, cgi, or video to contribute much to this forum, but I've been in awe of it and lurking for years. Some of the debunks here are completely brilliant in their simplicity and elegance.
https://www.metabunk.org/threads/temple-mount-ufo-debunked.82/#post-283509Hello! I go by Gryffin. I learned about metabunk from the High Strange podcast. I'm very much enjoying learning about UFOs, listening to podcasts for now mainly and then following up what I hear with Internet searches. Right now, I'm working through The Alien UFO Podcast by Simon Brown. Looking forward to browsing around. Is there a best way to search for specific sightings? For example, I'd like to find y'all's discussion of the Jerusalem sighting in 2011, but I'm not sure how to go about it. Thank you!
Just a note: I get a magnifying glass. I don't know which devices get which icons, but I'm on an iPad.For other interests use the search function (the hour glass in the upper right corner)

Hi Landru, thank you. Yep, the search function works great. I have a posting guidelines question if that's ok. I read the posting guidelines, but I'm still not clear on something. Regarding the dome of the rock sighting, I learned about it from a podcast episode in 2022, and the person being interviewed addresses that one of the videos was faked but not the other four. Anyway, where would be best to discuss a larger question of believers (I guess is the term?) ignoring concrete evidence? If that podcast was the only thing I'd heard on the subject, I'd believe his thoughts, but in my experience so far, a tiny bit of google searching following a claim has debunked every sighting I've heard about, in like 30 seconds. So what are these UFOlogists missing or ignoring that seems so obvious? Not to ask the question here haha, but I guess in a round about way, where would the best place to have this discussion?https://www.metabunk.org/threads/temple-mount-ufo-debunked.82/#post-283509

I think there are some threads already discussing this. Use the search or browse the UFO categories.Hi Landru, thank you. Yep, the search function works great.

Thanks for explaining, I've been wondering.it's intentional. it's to keep the spam robots out.
