Hey everyone!

Hope you guys are all enjoying the site. We have several projects going on right now, including the finishing touches on the new Ghost Adventures site and a totally redesigned site here.

The newest project is a new Wiki we're working on called "WikiParanormal". It will be a full-blown wiki for everything paranormal. Consider it a paranormal version of Wikipedia. But here's the thing: Since we have SO much going on, we need some help developing it. What we need are people who are willing to devote a little time in writing new articles/entries and adding to and updating what we enter. You would need to have experience in the paranormal field, be it actively working with a group or have gone through or helped someone through a serious paranormal experience yourself. Other paranormal organizations are highly encouraged to get involved, as this will be a paranormal encyclopedia for us all. All groups that become actively involved will be listed in the site credits and any promotion that follows.

If anyone is interested, please drop me a line through the contact page at theparanormalsociety.org/contact-us.

This is a very serious project with extremely high hopes. Please, if you're able to contribute, we would really appreciate it. The site is online but under heavy development. It's at: www.wikiparanormal.com

Big thanks to everyone. We love you guys for all the awesome support!!

Just wanted to let everybody know this:

Those of you who have contacted us for help, hang in there. We've been overwhelmed with cases and help requests over the past month or so. We're working hard to get to everyone... and we will, just as soon as we can. Don't think that we forgot you! So if you've contacted us for help or advice, I promise, we WILL respond. We're getting to everybody as quick as we can. And... this leads to another post that's on the way...

EVERYONE PLEASE READ THIS

UPDATE: 01/10/2010 [2:35am] - ALL Ghost Adventures episode links have been rebuilt and are working fine.

UPDATE: 01/17/2010 [2:15am] - Creepy Canada Season 3 links repaired and working fine.

UPDATE: 02/11/2010 [11;49pm] - Paranormal State episodes are being restored. New season has been added and episodes are being uploaded.

Listen guys, there was major error in our database and the links to all full episodes were wiped-out (YEAH, tell me about it!).

We're rebuilding them right now, but it's gonna take some time. ALL episodes are still here... just the links to them were lost. While we're rebuilding the links, just search for whatever episode you're looking for, or do a general search. For example, just search for "Ghost Adventures"... and the results will display all Ghost Adventures content. From there you can find episodes and watch. Same goes for any other show.

And check it out... we've gotten some pretty rude and vulgar comments and emails about this. It's to the point where we can't let them continue. It's useless, degrading and uncalled-for. And hey... it's not like we did this on purpose! So from here on out: ANY comments or emails that we receive that are profain, vulgar or threatening (yes, some folks have even threatened us!) will result in the sender's IP being banned from the site. In short, that means that you WILL NOT be able to access the site and bans WILL NOT be lifted... ever. We need you to let us know about site problems... but please do so in a nice and polite manner. We work very hard to keep things running as smooth as possible... and foot the bill out of our pockets for site hosting, maintainence, design, etc. and gladly commit our time to do it. So please chill a little and give us some slack, ok? We're trying really hard to get it fixed as fast as possible.

And to everyone who has been SO supportive: You guys are awesome and we really appreciate every single one of you!! I promise we'll have things back up just as quick as we can.

UPDATE: We've reached more than our initial limit, so for now, we've closed the application.

Registration codes are being issued. We're doing this over the span of several days... so if you signed-up, be sure to check your email. Also: When you register, PLEASE setup your profile and be interactive. We got tons of applications (over 400), so we need you guys to try to login each day, if possible, and try to be as active as you can; meaning leave feedback, participate in polls, etc. We realize there's not much there yet, but just please try to give as much feedback as possible. Thanks!!!

Ok, so check it out: We're building a new site for Ghost Adventures. It will actually be part of the main site here, but will be a totally different design. It will feature all episodes, including the first documentary, as well as photos, bios on the guys, haunted places, sneak-peaks, recaps, interviews and tons of other "exclusive" stuff.

Hey guys,

There have been some comments lately about the slow loading times of one of our providers, "StageVu". We realize this and are working with StageVu to see what can be done to enhance performance. The thing is, the content is stored on their servers and is just embedded here... so unfortunately, we can't control the speed.

We're still transitioning into the new content delivery network, so any content that can be hosted on our CDN servers will be. We're officially supporting Ghost Adventures and are authorized media providers, so rest assured that all GA episodes will load fast and will play with no glitches. Also, we're still in the midst of the site redesign. Hopefully it will be up soon. In the meantime, if you guys have any suggestions on what we can do to make the site better, PLEASE drop us a few lines and let us know. You can use the online contact form here, or you can just reply with a comment below.

Thanks to everyone for making us one of the most popular and successful paranormal websites! It's only possible because of you all... and we love ya for it!

Update:

We've had some comments about some of the Ghost Adventures episodes being slow-loading. We sincerely apologize for that. We're making some changes, as you already know. Here's what's going on:

We're moving to a new CDN, but we wanted all Ghost Adventures episodes to be available, no matter what. So we needed to use an alternate provider for the time-being. That provider is StageVu. Unfortuantely, we can't control the speed at which they deliver the videos. But check out the help section on watching videos; this section has some tips for watching DivX videos. Click here to view the help section.

Hang in there with us... we'll get it all sorted out soon. Thanks for the awesome patience!

Just wanted to give you guys a heads-up on some changes. A lot of the paranormal tv content will be unavailable starting Friday, Dec. 2, 2009. We're changing our content delivery network server, so during the move, a lot of shows wont be available.

The good news is that ALL Ghost Adventures episodes will remain fully active.

We apologize for this, but the move will provide better streaming in the long run and will include more features, like related shows, episodes and more. We should have the move complated by the end of the month.

Hey guys,

Sorry for the recent downtime. Some worthless idiot hacked into our web host's server and messed up the site.  Luckily, we back up ourselves each week and our web host backs up each night. So, with our data backup and our web hosts backup, we were back up and running in less than 5 minutes.
