Application Proposal - Mental Telepathy

I finally decided to get more info on this geezer down to find out what's going on with this "application"

Dargo belongs to this group.

From their site:

LUXOR Light is a frequency gifted to us in order to raise our levels of consciousness. It gives us the ability to be able to become what is known as a frequency modulator in order to assist others to do the same. You will become the Master Alchemist altering vibrational status firstly within the “Self” in order to assist the Planet to do the same and to have an active role in assisting with the process of creating Peace on Earth.

Sounds pretty cool. Dargo's an alchemist. Maybe even a Master Alchemist!
:dl:

Here's some more on the same group:

Enlarge the photo and look at the Golden energy beaming in from the Light of God... Look at the pink energy of pure Spiritual Love, and see the presence of three specs of Light representing Angelic Beings. We can read whatever we like into this... I choose to read about Love, Light Beings, God and the Angels.

Numerology, reflexology, you name it, these guys do it. Currently gaining spiritual power (no doubt for the challenge) by going to Chichen Itza.

Dargo's chick's name, inserted into Google with quotation marks comes up with this site:

Astrology, full moon sessions, couldn't be the same chick, could it? (N.B. I'm linking only the main page of the site to ensure her privacy isn't compromised.

I found all this from dargo's Bebo page, so I won't post the link as it would compromise his privacy. Anyone interested can PM me for the link. No pics of the "goddess" though, dammit!


Ok, enough of the fun stuff - time for a polite message to dargo.

Dargo, I thought you were a sneaky fraudster, but now I can see you're just deluded.

Let me note a couple of things for you.

People do NOT have auras.
Numerology is an ancient joke wich has NO bearing on life (or anything else)
Angles do NOT dance on the heads of pins.
Reflexology is another ancient joke with NO basis in fact.
Alchemy is yet another ancient joke with NO basis in fact.
You can NOT gain powers by visiting pyramids.

Now, you look like a nice young man - good-looking guy in his 20s with a nice girlfriend. It's time to wake up and stop kidding yourselves.

I see that you've been given links to other people who thought they were psychic - and it turned out they weren't. You aren't, either. What you are, is self-deluded. Just get down, do a good day's work and forget all this silly nonsense.

Good luck!
 
The Atheist, how do you if Dargo belongs to said group? Do you know for a fact that the "chick" is the same woman Dargo refers to?

No, I don't know if it's the same chick, but it is 100% certain that it's the same Dargo and that he belongs to the group.

As I said, I can't show that in the forum without compromisisng his privacy, but if you want to, PM me and I'll send you all the details - there are nice pics of him in the group and he claims membership.
 
Crickets Chirping...

It's to easy to commit fraud with Test One plus we aren't prepared to give out our phone numbers. However Test Two is fine. We are willing and waiting to be tested.

I see that Dargo has been in the Forum as little as 30 minutes ago. He can't say that he was on holiday and unable to log on.

As some of you anticipated, Dargo has failed to respond as yet to the Gulliver Challenge. I can only assume that he cannot meet this challenge, even though it would be easier and less stringent than EA's or JREF's MDC.

May I please ask the favor of everyone here that we don't let Dargo off the hook? In the above quote, he agreed to the test. Let's hold his feet to the fire. If he returns to post here, let's keep him focused on his commitment and not allow him to wander about wasting our time.

I would point out, as some of you have already, that developing the protocol and planning to have locations ready in a matter of hours was a significant undertaking on the students' and mine part. Dargo should realize that he has the moral obligation to repay us or to meet the challenge.

Sincerely,
Gulliver

Although your work and efforts, Gulliver et al, should receive beaucoup compliments, a financial compensation seems a bit far-fetched because it wasn't mutually agreed upon, right?

Thank you, folks. You have my respect - which can only be measured in satisfaction, not in currency. (Fist-pumps and high-fives all around.)



Dargo, you said you'd be willing to be tested. Can we chalk this up to another evasion on the part of you and "Sharee"?

Do you have a comment for your ignorance of Gulliver's proposal?

From my experience with would-be applicants I must inform you, that your communication does not further your credibility. Quite the opposite. You can change that today, if you like. It doesn't seem too late.
 
mea culpa

I erred in failing to clarify that by "repay" I did not expect a financial award. I meant that I expected something less tangible such as an effort to meet the challenge, or better yet an honest admission about his (imagined?) powers.

With regrets,
Gulliver

P. S. Oh, and thanks for your support and kind words. I'll tell the students in the morning about your post.
 
Since Dargo has been visiting the boards and has not responded, Gulliver, I suggest that should he not respond to your offer by, say, Monday noon (your local time) that he has forfeited and has lost the challenge.

Do other people who are like Dargo do either of these things?

I raised questions about his ability last October. So how he treated you should be no surprise.
 
It's hard to be a skeptic

Dargo continues to provide nothing substantial to back up his claim.

It's so frustrating when many people accuse skeptics of not being "open-minded" or willing to look at new evidence. In my experience, this is a common case: folks with outrageous claims (I'm looking at you, Sylvia Browne) don't even bother to show up.

I applaud your excellent work in this thread, Gulliver!
 
Expectations and Surprises.

Please accept my thanks for your input and analysis. I agree with many insights that you post and learn as well from them.

I believe there's a disconnect here. I "expect" appropriate behaviour from all of my students; however, I'm never surprised when one or two out of 100 manage to fail to meet my expectations. I hold Dargo to the social norm of politeness and empathy with my expectations.

As to your question, I respectfully decline to answer. I just hate to generalize about "other people like so-and-so." But even if Dargo belonged to such category of people who always have failed to do the right thing, I offer that we should, as the best human beings, still expect him to behave appropriately.

Gratefully,
Gulliver
 
Status Update and Thanks.

I see that Dargo continues to lurk here. He was online with the JREF Forum less than an hour ago.

The crickets continue chirping. I'd not received any PM from Dargo, and we can all see that he remains silent in this thread.

I will at noon, JREF time (EST, GMT-5) on Monday declare that Dargo has failed the Gulliver Test--unless we hear from him by then. I will allow you to draw your own conclusions, but I will conclude that Dargo is a fraud and not worth any more time. (I couldn't even stop at concluding just that he is delusional!)

On a happier note, various Forum members have PMed or posted kind words which have encouraged the students and warmed my heart. You're a great bunch. We thank you.

Determinedly and gratefully,
Gulliver

Thanks for your reply. At least you have given Dargo something to think about. And you have shown what Dargo is, or rather is not.

Maybe one day he will come back and ask all the hard questions and laugh at people who confuse reality with their fantasies.

Good on ya for keeping an eye out for him.

I haven't heard from him at all since my reply to his e mail.

Silly little boy. Probably gave him a hard-on for a day or two when he told his "goddess" about how he was going to skim a few mio. (Pics at sc of a lady on his homepage! Joo-Janta Peril Sensitive Sunglasses recommended)
 
I see that Dargo has been in the Forum as little as 30 minutes ago. He can't say that he was on holiday and unable to log on.

To be fair, Dargo made that post on 2nd January 2007, at 12:55 PM, quite a bit before you posted the formal Gulliver Challenge. Dargo has not posted anything since then at the JREF, at least not using the "Dargo" account.

I'm not sure what the JREF forum counts as "activity" on a user's profile page, so there is no way to guarantee that he has in fact seen the formal Gulliver Challenge at this stage.

In the past, it has often been several days between Dargo's posting, so it does appear that he does not check the forums regularly.
 
I'll make a non-psychic prediction: After the deadline passes, Dargo will reappear and complain, "But I knew nothing of this Gulliver test!"

Shouldn't count. If Dargo is appear as being logged onto the forum, Dargo can check the thread.

Gulliver, don't give Dargo a second chance if he fails the test by forfeit.

Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! Wrong answer!

Why do people insist on being so nice to these fools? Even worse, I really don't think you've read the entire thread if you come along with this kind of attitude.

On 28th October, dargo said:

I do have a signed affidavit. Is it possible to post pictures on here.

Have we seen it yet? No.

Dargo has only posted on this thread. There is over $3M Aussie at stake. What other threads do you think he might be looking at?

He hasn't responded to any of my e mails - which is a really big surprise.

He's a joke. A pathetically weak joke at that. Shamathy; drop the last four letters.
 
Dargo has failed the Gulliver Test

Dargo has failed the Gulliver Test.

He agreed to the basic protocol. He stated that he was waiting. He has accessed the Forum at least three times since I made reasonable and clear requests to move foward with the Test. He has failed to respond by either private message or posting on this Forum. He has had several days to respond. By not responding in a reasonable time, Dargo has failed the Gulliver Test.

To any other further posting by Dargo, I will respond with a reminder that he has failed an easier test than the MDC.

I have concluded that Dargo is unethical and a fraud. He asked to be tested. He knew that we spent time and effort to prepare for the test. He then remained unreasonably silent. Wasting others' time is unethical. I believe that failing to respond indicates that he knows that he can't pass the test. Yet he has posted here and applied elsewhere saying that he can. I conclude that he is a fraud accordingly. I, of course, respect everyone's right to reach his or her own conclusions.

Dargo may reapply for the Gulliver Test after January 1, 2008.

Earnestly,
Gulliver
 
Thank you, Gulliver. You went above and beyond the call of duty, and it is to Dargo's discredit that he did not follow through as he promised.
