and as to why these mysteriously appear in only a few areas, well, thats where the groups of hobbyists with sufficient skill (who can be bothered to do this) live.
Your laughter is laughable.

What have I made that you are referring too? A little baffled, but anyway, listen, are you suggesting that the crop circle in the OP is of extraterrestrial origin? I've made my views heard on it being man made, or are you going to be vague like others and say "I never said it was Alien" I believe it is another phenomenon or some other form of b*llocks.
What are your views on the OP's crop circle
Dude with bad leg alone
Must be Aliens
Who is talking about exact copies, that is hardly fair, equally impressive, not a problem in regards to the crop circle. The snow one though, don't think so, and it was confirmed case of humanoidedit on 28-8-2012 by OnionHead because: Alien probingedit on 28-8-2012 by OnionHead because: (no reason given)

Your laughter is laughable.
and you know this how? where is your evidence? Saying "it must be people that live in the area" really doesn't cut it. People who live in that area have released footage of them creating with planks and ropes, the results looked something like the examples we see, however they really were not comparable with the likes of this. Infact, they more or less shot themselves in the foot as it took them so long to create the basics that it would take them weeks to create this. If more people were involved, they've done an excellent job of covering their tracks given the sodden state of the ground in the UK, it's not stopped raining all summer. Have you ever walked into a soaking wet field?

Eurisko2012, your rants are hardly helpful to anyone. Also, your silly attempt at making yourself seem amused isn't working - it's obvious you're mad as hell.
Anyway.. the ratio of evidence for crop circles being man made and alien made is 100% man made / 0% alien made. It's nothing more than well expected that there are countless videos and confessions of people who make these things, while there's zero evidence of anything extraterrestrial in these crop circles throughout history.
The only thing you might consider calling evidence is your laughable excuses for why these can't possibly be man made. They are all invalid and factually wrong, yet you act like anyone that claims otherwise is a nut, when it's obvious who the nuts are.
As I said earlier, at large - the very idea of aliens traveling all the way to Earth only to make vague signs in crop fields that nobody is able to understand the meaning of, is absurd. What's more absurd is people like you who can't comprehend that these circles are hoaxes by people who reel you and the likes of you one by one, time after time only to have themselves entertained by the mass of fools that "use throughout thinking" into deciding these works are extraterrestrial.
If I had a crop field I'd be making quick $$ from the likes of you. I'd probably manage to sell you a genuine gray alien autograph and a stone from alpha-centauri.edit on 28-8-2012 by IsraeliGuy because: (no reason given)

no need to
dudes with planks, ropes, and stilts did NOT do this
else they'd have gone for the prize in that competition [that has had no takers as of yet]
And how do you know dudes with planks and stilts didn't do this? Just because you or I couldn't?
Every crop circle thread that pops up here I as the same question, with no adequate replies. Why weren't designs like this made in the 70s? Why were they very basic back then, only to get steadily better over the years? How come? Why do you always assume that they were done in a single night? Or just at night?
Instead of ignoring the masses of evidence, and proof that people make crop circles, can you show me any that aliens did them?
It's all down to better planning, gps, and a system that works every time, regardless of the pattern.
Humans make them....
Sure! Humans who:
1. make no footprints in wet soil after it has rained - either in the crop circle or leading to it from a road.
2. can trample over dozens of square yards of field without snapping any of the crop stalks.
3. can batter crops to the ground, causing the nodes in their stalks to swell, so that they bend only at points close to the ground.
4. execute perfect, complex crop circles in the pitch black of a night in various fields in the Wiltshire countryside, yet never get caught by dozens of croppies watching all these favourite hotspots from nearby hills.
You don't want to believe in far-fetched explanations like aliens making crop circles. Yet you ask me to believe alternative explanations that are hardly more credible.
Ridiculous. Just because you or I cant explain your 1-4 list, that means it wasn't humans but aliens? Really?
Anyway, as always you didn't explain how they have become more detailed over the years? People seem to have forgot that the crop circles from the 70s were originally believed to be markings that ufos made when they landed in the fields. As they have advanced over the years they are now thought of as messages instead.
Whilst some CC makers are good, there are obviously some who are great at it, and then there are some that are experts at it. We see CCs from all 3 types, the OP is expertly done, but they're all made by humans in the end....

i'm of this opinion too, although i think people claim to be responsible for them just to bask in 5 mins of (in)fame.
I find it most unlikely that they are created by spaceships or aliens. If such things exist and if they can easily get here without detection, why for the love of god would they draw cryptic pictures in crops, it simply makes no logical sense. Unless of course there's a gang of yoof aliens joyriding to earth and having a right laugh by drawing things in fields.
If the "earth" is creating these, it could be from a conciousness, which, if so, means the "earth" has feelings. but then if the conciousness is the same conciousness we have, why does it use cryptic crop formations to send us messages?!
this subject matter is fascinating. If humans are responsible, they have a tremendous skill and ability to avoid detection, time after time.. this in itself is fascinating, why would anyone do this?

if I remember correctly, that message came from the binary disc with the alien face? Are we really to believe that the alien face they depicted (which, as far as I can ascertain came from 50's science fiction) is actually what they look like? isn't that a rather large coincidence?
I love that particular formation, it was a work of art. If humans created that, it's hard to believe that nobody has claimed responsibility. You'd also have expected it to be covered more by the media, given it's detail and artistic genius (given that it's created in a crop)...
i notice the debunker plank people aren't chiming in now we are discussing the finer detail. it seems their only response is "it was 2 blokes with planks"... can you think of any other man made prank that has gone on this long without being exposed? I can't...edit on 29-8-2012 by ceetee because: (no reason given)

I don't know if you have heard but disclosure is this year.

BTW, yes that is what they look like but there is also a hybrid race that looks more
humanoid. Here they are.

I have a way to settle the crop circle phenomenon once and for all!
You heard me correctly.
I thought about creating a thread based on this but why not add it here...
Here is how.
Several fields have designs each year or every other year.
Set up a perimeter around one of these famous and often used fields with night vision cameras and laser trip lines overlapping so that no one could enter or leave without being spotted.
Monitor for a few weeks, or a season.
If a circle shows up in the night without tripping any detectors we have at least eliminated physical human involvement.
Now you say who has this money or time...well how about Nation Geographic, Discovery or Sci-fi they are always doing shows about paranormal/ufo stuff these days!
Of course this could blow the careers of crop hunters so it makes you wonder if they would really want this to happen... But if a formation was created without physical involvment it could be a major breakthrough.
Now just because we have eliminated humans creating them physically does not mean they could have been done with some sort of device.
In the past few years I have come to really appreciate the artistic side of the circle makers. The complexity and enormity of them is becoming astounding to the point if it is human made would take a team of artist to do it. These designs take planning and precision (getting the crop to lay in different directions to appear as shading is amazing to me!). This does not mean however they could not have been created by humans.
Anyone who believes humans could not create a crop circle and these are alien or some other phenomenon in origin is as foolish, shortsighted and is as narrow minded as the skeptics

Okay, you have the confidence! Great!
Go ahead and make an exact copy of this cube crop circle.
I don't want to hear anymore excuses. Stop pontificating and make the exact same
crop circle. Video tape it and put it on YouTube. I predict you will fall flat on your face
and then declare " It cannot be done."

And if I attempt it and fail to replicate this one then does that mean it isn't humanly possible?
Great!
Then that means I can figure out if anything is possible based on if I can do it myself!
I'm going to settle the moon landings conspiracy once and for all and see if I can build my own space shuttle and land on the moon.
If I fail then that means the moon landings were faked!
What about the curiosity mars rover, is that faked too?
Only one way to find out.
I'm going to see if I can send a rover to mars in one piece, if it doesnt then I'm afraid to tell you that nasa have been lying about the curiosity rover all along because it isn't possible for humans to succeed in such a mission.
Did you know that aeroplanes are made by aliens?
It's true! I tried to make my own aeroplane and no matter how hard I tried I couldn't get it to fly.
