Just wanted to take this opportunity to give everyone update on the state of our paranormal group as we approach the third quarter of 2013.
This has been a challenging year for all of us at PPI, both personally and professionally. We are a very small group and when one or more of us are slammed by outside obligations it has a negative impact on our outreach capablity. Such was the case for 2013, and we had to take a brief hiatus in order to deal with our outside obligations.
During this time the forums on the PPI website were not only silent, but almost totally unused. This was discouraging, because we were battling an evil horde of spammers every day who were determined to overwhelm our defenses. We were averaging between 600 and 1000 forum registrants per week, but they were almost exclusively spambotsbots. Thankfully Karl Sherlock found a solution to this incredibly time consuming problem and the spammers have been forced to look for greener pastures.
We released one incredible podcast in 2013 featuring Edwin Becker, author of "A True Haunting", and we have some raw audio from various get togethers late last year and early this year that we hope to polish before the Halloween season. Our Facebook pages have grown over the year; we now have over 190 "likes" on our Official Facebook Page, and over 280 "likes" on our Group Facebook Page. The PPI Blog has continued to develop and we look forward to adding more articles and material in the coming months. Our affiliation with the TAPS Family of investigators remains strong, and we continue to work with our very good friends from the San Diego Ghost and Paranormal Meetup Group or SDGAP at every available opportunity.
Although many challenges and obstacles remain we look forward to returning to operational capacity. We were honored to do a presentation for Girl Scout Troop 6009 at the Casa de Oro Public Library in Spring Valley on Saturday June 8, 2013, and we have a couple of public presentations that will be announced shortly.

Once again, all of us at PPI wish to thank you for your understanding and patience during this very difficult time. Whether you're new to the paranormal field or an old pro, we encourage you to register for the PPI Forums on our website strike up a conversation with us. We all look forward to chatting with you on the boards. Feel free to resurrect an old thread or start a new one and we will be sure to join the conversation.
Question for your group. Does your team have any experience in handling hostile entities and removing them? If yes, what do you use or perform such as blessings, consecrations, exorcism, sealing, etc?
ReplyDeleteHi Gatekeeper, PPI does not perform blessings or cleansings, but we can recommend discreet services at our client's requests. We are working closely with the TAPS Family of paranormal investigators to build a larger network of resources to help those in need.
