webbot tipping point/emotional release 14/11/10 at 6.50 am.....

Has webbot ever been right about anything for this thread to even be worthy of consideration?

No...

That would be a negative. But TWZ was thrown in with this too and I think a lot of people began to get the two confused and this just turned into a giant mess. lol.

True, but not everyday are there that many quakes in that magnitude on the same day (today) located ALL in nearly one area near the coast of Yemen. Based on the post I quoted I found it a rather odd and humorous coincidence.

It was not meant to be any validation of any prediction.. No human or man-made thing can predict the future.

Maybe if you look through the data I posted and do some digging you will see that it is a somewhat anomalous series of quakes. Interesting, and in the context posted rather funny.

I have not seen anyone mention the over 360 earthquakes in the last six months near a town called Guy, Arkansas.

The problem I have is that they charge people.

$10 times thousands is a lot of money.

Yeah...he's only got a $16,000 a month broadband bill to pay for running his software.

If you're referring to the cost of running a web crawler, a $50/month cable connection is fast enough to crawl a million or more pages a day, which is more than enough to get a snapshot of the human consciousness of the day. He might need a small compute cluster to parse, filter, and analyze the data (assuming he does more than just count keywords), but probably nowhere near $16,000 a month.

and a track record of "predictions" that does not justify the cost, but that is of no consequence as long as he continues to make a profit eh?

edit on 14-11-2010 by MrWendal because: (no reason given)

I know you wouldn't make such a statement unless you really knew and had viable information, with that in mind perhaps you would be so kind to tell us all just how much is he making on this venture?

I would imagine that would be a question better asked of Cliff don't you think? Common sense tells me that if you are selling something, you do it for a profit. If you do not make a profit off what you sell, it is hardly worth the effort. It is no secret that information from the Web Bot project is sold via the website halfpasthuman.com. However they have largely kept the Web Bot technology a secret. In other words... we won't tell you how it works, but you can feel free to purchase our results.

Web Bot is fiction. What happened to the massive earthquake in Vancouver Canada and the Pacific Northwest which was predicted to occur on 12/12/2008? What happened the "prediction" that in South America, there would be large or mass sightings of UFO-related phenomena and in the summer of 2010, "a video crew will interview an escapee from an internment facility and the young bald man will be revealed to be a non-Terran human"? What happened to the "catastrophic event on a U.S. coast" that was predicted for mid-2009? Also in 2009 Web Bot claimed that Israel would bomb Iran in 2009, which would throw President Obama's Administration into chaos ten days later. None of these things have happened.

Web Bot's track record of predicting future events has failed miserably. At this point, any one who continues to believe that it can predict the future is misleading themselves. Even if you look into what Web Bot claims to have "predicted" correctly, and then go look at the actual "prediction" it is so general and vague that it can be attached to just about anything.

Please OP don't take my comment on a personal level, or the ATS members who are here to help.

But I think these "predictions" only do more harm than good. In fact, I would ban the topic forever, it only makes people go "preoccupied" for nothing.

Live your life well TODAY, do your best TODAY, share your knowledge TODAY. Tomorrow is a product of our society. In the old times, there was only a morning followed by a night, an eternal cycle of moments of NOW.

Another prediction not coming true. Big surprise.

2nd line

Correct me if I am wrong - but Webbot predicted the Israel/Iran bombing were to take place in December before Obama took office - Bush was still president. It was reported at that time that Israel did have plans for an air campaign against Iran but that Bush had talked them out of it.

I am not defending the webbot cuz I believe it but it has had a few correct predictions - the Russia/Chechnya incident (i believe it was off by 1 day on the prediction), the stock market plummet that happened the in 9/08 happened within the dates that webbot reported (9/17-9/22 if I recall).

With that said it has been wrong numerous times. Its just a webbot.

Something great has already happened to me....found out this morning that I'm going to be a father!

Congratulations Wills

That's great man :-)

Actually yes. If you havent read the reports then dont say nothing came true.

The problem is it is wrong as much as it is right, so that doesnt help at all. But don't say it has never been right, because it has, startlingly right at times actually.

Do you think he's got roughly 1,600 subscribers? What about 5,000? 20,000? 100,000? How many paid for the yearly/lifetime membership (if offered)?

Before you go justifying the monetary end of this argument, there are some very important figures that must be ascertained first.

I've made no claims to any of the numbers you've cited, perhaps you could fill us in on the number of subscribers he does have and more about the "Lifetime Membership" of which I knew nothing of.

I believe it was you who threw out all the numbers and came up with a lifetime membership. I doubt seriously if you're even familiar with the webbot technology from your post. What I don't doubt is you haven't a clue and instead demonstrate ignorance on this topic.

Today...

- I ended my cell phone contract. One less costly subscription.
- I bought an LED light for my living room. Electricity-wise, it will only cost me 47 cents a year to use.
- I decided to live in the moment as much as I can, to worry as little as possible.
- I didn't have a care in the world.

Maybe something did happen today? Something good?

What you might want to do is listen to his interviews where he is asked about the alleged failures and listen to his replies, maybe then you can speak with some credibility. Try to listen to more than a couple....there are many. If I were he and failed as many times as you say, and have allegedly been conning the public for years now, I would have to re-think about granting any interviews at all.

If this was the case...Google must be running their search engine off a Vic 20...lol

The bots predict language not events.

The future is NOT always written in stone.
If the recipe says in two hours there will be a cake in the oven, but suprisingly the hydro goes out while cooking, it isn't the recipe's fault, or the cook's fault, or the cake's fault, for that matter, that the cake didn't turn out on time.

Any web bot predictions that come true beats the law of blind guessing, but consider we know that the whitehouse has illegally spent millions on fake news and on propaganda and the the MSN has been dishing out BS since forever,,,is it any wonder the web bots are skewed plus the web bots scour language which is then interpreted, so there is room for interpretation.
Not to mention that on forums such as this a large percentage of the wordage is incorrect on any given subject concerned as not all posters/posts have the right idea about a given topic.

Like when the bots predicted that there would be a huge financial system collapse on Oct 25th o9 and people discussing it don't mention that that's the day the leakers of the climategate emails first offered up those emails which led to the collapse of Copenhagen and the bazzzillion dolllar carbon trading empire that algore et al were trying to foist on the public. It is just assumed they ment the PTB controlled stock market which BTW has already crashed if you actually figure the actual value of the original investments and the actual worth of them on the real marketplace today.

Prognostication like carpentry goes a lot better if you have more then one tool in the box and you use the apropriate tool for the job when required.
No?
Can the future be accurately surmised?
Try the I Ching sometime, Cf Baynes /Whilhelm translation, Carl Jung wasn't freaked out by it for nothing.
It can be right on, but you can also MAKE it read wrong.

Why in the world is it only predicting negative bs. I my self beleave its a scare tactic pritty much like everything else you run across now a days. I don't even watch the news any more always some bs on about killing. what ever happened to straight up in your face facts news. but iv came to the conclusion long ago that its best not to attach to much spiritual energy to negative energy sooo know wedblock for me my good friend I mean webbot lol iv never even heard of it befor until this post. and from the looks of it i can see why I haven't heard of it. It promotes to much fear for me lol I WONDER WHO'S HEAD HONCHO OF THE FEAR CAMPAIGN?

Having built a small search engine, I can assure you that Google devotes orders of magnitude more resources to indexing and analyzing the data than to crawling. If you don't believe me, the math is simple: A 10 Mbit connection is equivalent to just over 1 MB per second (round down to 1 for packet overhead, etc.). If a typical web page is 100 KB, then you can crawl about 10 pages per second. Multiply that by 86,400 seconds for a conservative 864,000 pages a day. Most web pages are less than 100 KB if you don't download the extra junk such as images, JavaScript, and style sheets, so in practice a million pages a day is a good benchmark.

And I really doubt he even crawls a million pages a day. You can get good statistics from a few thousand documents. What I've read about webbot's workings is that it scans pages for a list of keywords, plus some words before and after the keywords, and then does some sort of analysis. Depending on how deep that analysis goes, his costs would range from running one computer to perhaps a small cluster. Storage costs would depend on the type of statistics gathered, but could be up to several GB a day. If he was trying to index the data and process queries from millions of people an hour, then he'd have some Google-like puzzles to solve.

Why would I care what the excuse is for why the predictions failed? You know the old saying, excuses are like a-holes, everyone has one and they all stink. Maybe you, as a reasonable person who is not trying to con anyone, would re-think giving interviews, but you have no stake in the project. If I were Cliff, right or wrong, I would be doing interviews. I would be pushing my agenda and getting as much publicity as I can get. Some might even call that "marketing". Cliff is running a business. You can say I speak with no credibility whatsoever, but that does not change the fact that web bot has predicted events that never happened. The events Web Bot has predicted that are claimed to be "correct" that I have looked into have always been vague and generalized predictions that can be attached to just about anything. Those are the facts and that has nothing to do with my credibility.
