Obviously, you don't get it...
I am here to debunk THIS crop circle. YOU CROPPIES are the ones that always turn it into a debate about ALL crop circles...
THIS crop circle is MAN-MADE, and the PROOF is hidden in the way it was designed, and the way it was made.
It is designed with circles and lines AND NOTHING MORE (very simple for man).
There is lines and sloppy mistakes in the "infill" which is also PROOF that it was made the traditional man-made technique.
There is also holes in perfect positions for pivot points.
The crop circle in the original post is man-made.
NEXT!

But where are your videos to prove the opposite?
Circles and straight lines are not difficult to make in a crop field.

I already showed videos. One of the best videos you can see by clicking the link in my signature.
Perfect symmetry? They appear perfectly symmetrical because they are using tools to guide them.
With a rope, you can make a perfect circle.
When two people stretch the rope, and a third person walks from one to the next, you can make a perfectly straight line.
If you tie knots in a rope at certain measured lengths, you can use it like a measuring tape. You can then create a crop circle like you would create a drawing on graph paper. You use the rope to mark major points, then you connect the dots, or make the arcs and circles with the same rope.
If you think symmetry is hard, I ask you to PLEASE take some art classes, or learn how to draw using a graph.
Intricacy? Intricacy is your OPINION. As a graphic artist, I have never seen ANY crop circles that are intricate, or complex. They are all made with circles, and lines, and all look like simple designs...
Are you trying to say crop circles are impossible for humans to make in short periods of time? You are insulting humans...
There is TONS of proof humans can make crop circles. So I don't even understand your question or argument anymore..

You are old and clueless... I am saddened to know the world if full of people like yourself.

So.... that alone is overwhelming evidence. Duh

On a programme called, The Worlds Greatest Hoaxs, they showed a 6oo ft complicated pictogram made in less than six hours which was filmed from the top of a crane. I don't doubt for one minute that those guys would/could make the circle you so desire.
I don't think you would be laughing much then...
Why don't you do us all a favour. Given you so obviously think every Crop Circle in human history all around the world was made by man.... why don't you go out there and go get us some video to prove it's man made.
I'm sick of the noisy negativists... proclaiming rather than investigating. I want you to catch these people doing it if you are so sure. A few nuts admitting they make crappy looking crop circles with barely any intricisy come forward and you immediately tar every crop circle with the same brush.
If your local priest is a paedophile is that conclusive proof that all priests are paedophiles? because that is your rational on crop circles. Ridiculous.

And on top of that you debunk Crop Circles by doing the old tried and tested excuse of "Well I can make one with a board and rope so they are ALL proven to be fake". One of the most pathetic bits of "evidence" I have ever seen.

On July 7, 1996, at a stone's throw from the famous Stonehenge megaliths in south England, a formation of 151 circles appeared in broad daylight. The total formation was over 380 feet wide.
The 1996 Stonehenge formation appeared within about half and hour, during broad daylight.
The tree circle, which was reported by Czech researcher Petr Novák in 1994, consisted of a circle 10m in diameter, consisting of adult trees, which were bent at angles up to ninety degrees.
In 1998, a similar report came from Butte (Montana, USA) where 150 acres of pine trees were completely flattened to the ground. No storms had been reported at the time whatsoever.
In 1997, a pictogram appeared in a Dutch carrot field. From the air, the formation did not look impressive at all. It was enclosed by high corn fields and was completely invisible from the road. The earth was very soft, making it impossible without leaving deep and clearly visible footprints. The most curious things was the direction of the lay. In one half of the rectangle, the carrot leaves lay forward, while in the opposite half they lay backwards. On the imaginary boundary line separating the two halves, there was a long row of carrots which roughly one half of the leaves had been flattened in one direction, while the other half of the leaves of the same plants had been flattened in the opposite direction. At the right the leaves are bent away from you; at the left they are bent toward you; and in the middle the leaves of a single plant seem to be "combed" in two directions, with a little tuft in the middle still standing upright.
It was clear that no one had set foot inside this crop formation, simply because of the lack of footprints. What was found, however, were various burn marks on the plants. In several places, the far ends of the carrot leaves were burned to ashes, and sometimes the entire leaf had been burned away.
Another remarkable finding was the pictogram in snow, which was created in the night between December 30 and 31, 1996. On a frozen and snow-covered field in the south of the Netherlands, after several days of hard frost, a circle (seven meters in diameter) with a superimposed cross was created, in which the snow had disappeared. And curiously enough, there were no footprints leading to or from the formation.
On July 17, 1998, the Dutch researcher Janet Ossebaard was confronted with a new crop circle-related mystery: numerous dead flies stuck on the seed heads of wheat plants inside a crop circle. Soon the same observations were made by herself and by others in several other crop formations. The insects were firmly stuck with their tongues against their ears, and their legs and wings were spread out widely, as in a spasm. Pesticides could easily be excluded, because if that had been the case, dead flies would have been found throughout the field. Yet they were found solely inside the crop circles, and nowhere else.

It is foolish to think Owl = wisdom to an alien, or Sun = centrality to an alien that is from another star system, or circle = infinity to an alien instead of representing a 3D sphere in 2D.
ALL of your guesses are USELESS, and POINTLESS

You are correct, sir, in saying that there has been no "proof" obtained to say that crop circles are anything but man-made.
Originally posted by pretty_vacant
The problem is, there exists curious evidence found at crop circle sites that suggests the involvement of some phenomena that is beyond human beings. (Whether that suggests the work of ETs, so be it).
Originally posted by pretty_vacant
The lack of "proof" at this end really doesn't prove beyond all reasonable doubt that these crop circles, some of them, a majority of them, whatever, are man-made; it merely leaves the question open, because it's obvious that in many cases something else is going on.

The crop circle phenomenon isn't as "simple" a task as working out the math and geometry.

The Dead Fly Enigma

You're describing flies [...] that have died from infection with a fungus, Entomophthora muscae. A fly gets infected when a fungal spore from another infected fly lands on it. The fungus penetrates the fly's cuticle, proliferates inside the fly, and, shortly after the death of the fly, grows out of the cadaver and produces spores that eject in a "shower" which results in the white corona you see surrounding the cadaver on the window glass. Typically the fly will die in an elevated position stuck to the substrate by its proboscis with legs extended, wings raised, and the abdomen tilted upward".

Put briefly, because we know what to look for and human interference can easily be identified. Trying to prove it is something other than that can be tough. Not so tough in identifying evidence that is unusual, more tough in the sense that we cannot prove why that evidence is there, how it got there and who or what put it there.

And to address the above quote, I was only offering an alternative opinion. If the circumstances do concern ETs, as is a popular consensus among many people, then we as a species are somehow involved, that much would be obvious. In following that line of logic, naturally their "messages" would be preoccupied with something that would concern "us" from our perspective??
