I just read an entire forum on Perfect Water and only ONE person claimed to have actually drank the water. Does anybody else find this odd?
As an IBO allow me to give you my opinion: Oh wait… I don’t have one! Why is that? Because I’ve NEVER TRIED perfect water. (it’s not available until April)
How could I possibly give you an opinion on something I’ve never tried?
So, how about a forum for people who have actually tried Perfect Water and can offer their experiences.
IBO’s, this is not a place to advertise products!!!!! (personal experiences with perfect water only)
Skeptics, find an IBO, spend $1.99, (or talk them into a free sample) and give us your opinion.
If you drank perfect water and “were able to leap tall buildings in a single bound” then we want to hear from you.
If perfect water caused you to puke and go to the emergency room, then we want to hear from you.
If you couldn’t tell the difference between perfect water and tap water, then we want to hear from you.
If you have never tried perfect water, but would like to speculate on what you think may or may not be true concerning this product, then start another forum called:
Opinions and rhetoric but no real personal experience to draw from.
I think that’s fair
One other thing: This is not a forum to talk about how Quixtar or Amway has changed your life and made you a better person. On that same token nor is it a forum to talk about your bad experiences with either business. This is to discuss one product: Perfect Water
How nice of you to drop by and explain to the administrators of this forum what exactly it is a forum for. I’m sure they’re very glad to have a world authority of forum etiquette like yourself on hand to help them with the difficult and confusing topic of how to run their own damn site. No doubt a doctor of blogology such as yourself is a very busy person, so we’re all really grateful that you have taken time out of your busy schedule of policing the entire internet to help set us straight.
How could I possibly give you an opinion on something I’ve never tried?
Since I’m guessing you haven’t tried impaling yourself on a red hot poker, perhaps you’d like to and then get back to us? Ignore those people who will try to tell you that it’s painful, dangerous, stupid or generally not a good idea. I doubt they’ve tried it either, hence should not be going around voicing uninformed opinions!

How could I possibly give you an opinion on something I’ve never tried?
By reading the claims about the product they are hawking. The things that are said about their product are either impossible or a wordy explanation of a natural process.
As David B. pointed out there are lots of things you don’t need to try to know what the result will be. I could break you leg to show you how much it hurts, or you could use common sense to deduct that having a leg broke hurts, without actually experiencing the event.
One other thing: This is not a forum to talk about how Quixtar or Amway has changed your life and made you a better person. On that same token nor is it a forum to talk about your bad experiences with either business.
Is it the Museum of Hoaxes Forum title at the top of the page that gives that away?

WOW!!!!
That’s a stretch!!!!
You compared trying a new beverage on the market to impaling yourself and breaking a leg…
Boo, that’s my oversite, below is the link to the forum that I read. I would have posted a reply there but it was shut down at the first hint that someone actually associated with the product in question may have something to offer.
I’d lke to point out that I am welcoming (in fact seeking) ALL opinions on the matter. (good and bad)
So far, everyone seems really offended at my attempt to get some information about a product.
The reason I ended up on this site to begin with, is I was searching for information about a new product that I haven’t had a chance to try.
David B. the reason I tried to set some guidelines is for people like YOU!!!!
People who have no interest in finding out the truth on a matter. Your only interest is to try and impress people with your wit!!!
BTW, kudos on the impaling myself thing, that’s pretty witty, you’re right! I’ve never tried it, from now on if somebody ask my opinion on it my response will be:
“I’ve never personally tried impaling myself, nor do I claim to be an authority on the subject”
No, they’re pointing out the flaws in your logic.
It would be nice if you’d note that.
Also, we had four pages in the THREAD regarding Perfect Water, during which absolutely no proof was forthcoming from the people defending it that it is any better than regular water.
So your “it was shut down at the first hint that someone actually associated with the product in question may have something to offer” sentence seems a little misplaced, doesn’t it?
It’s not a ‘new beverage’. It’s called ‘water’. It’s been around for a while. Mid-80’s or so.
It was actually invented by Kirkpatrick Macmillan in 1840, after finding the exercise from his previous year’s invention, the bicycle, to be making him thirsty.

Just so you have your terminology straight, the website that you are reading and posting on is called a forum. That’s the collection of all the sub-forums and the threads that are in those sub-forums. The link you provided above is to a thread. That’s a single entity on a single topic within a forum.
You may also want to pay attention to where you start and post your threads. See, you posted this thread in the ‘HOAXES’ sub-forum. That automatically designates it as a thread about a topic that is a (potential) hoax. Though I’m not going to argue with that assessment, you really may have wanted it in the ‘OFF-TOPIC CHIT CHAT” sub-forum.
And to set the record straight, the thread that was closed down was not closed for the reasons you stated. It was closed because at least three people associated with the company and product came in trying to hawk their wares and give out information on how to contact them so their wares could be bought. (You may not have seen that since it was edited out by the Moderators.) Not only is that against the forum rules but it was also completely against the topic and point of the thread as it was originally started.
Lastly, as has already been pointed out, you don’t need to try a product to see that the claims made are just a bunch of mumbo-jumbo that don’t mean anything. They’re just a way to make the product sound impressive and be a slightly confusing way of saying plain, ordinary things to make people think the product is something more than it is. There are plenty of people that will believe it and try it and maybe even think it works. But there are plenty of people, too, who will see it as the marketing ploy that it is and decide not to bother buying the product because of it.
But don’t feel bad. Perfect Water isn’t the only product to ever fall into that category.

Always the bloody Scots with you, isn’t it? You know damn well he bought the idea off a passing zeppelin from Neptune.

Aye, Neptune.
That’s where we came from originally. Think about it- cold, dark, miserable, windy, pissing rain. Why else would the northernmost half of Britain be a paradise?
The Irish came from Galatea. Can’t go leaving them behind, can we?
Although zeppelins are German. God alone knows where THEY came from.
