I have to agree with ColeWayne, it's a tool, but the problem is, like anything else, there are rules, both spoken and unspoken and since the rules aren't laid out, those who use it who are not experienced or with someone who is not experienced, will open up a huge can of worms. Alot of Wiccans use the board to communicate with Spirit and very successful at it because they are usually trying to connect with a specific person, and they have a specific intention for the use. Like astral projection, if you let your body just wander, then you really don't know where your going, what the purpose of the journey is and what you will run into and bring back with you. These rules often apply with magic as well. It's a tool, but a novice who invokes an underworld God all for the sake is seeing if a spell will work without understanding the rules or no understanding of the entity you are evoking is, this is when you run into alot of problems.
The two biggest problems I see is people opening the board and wanting any spirit to speak, just for the sake of "speaking to the dead", this allows any entity to come through and you have no idea who your dealing with. The second is people not placing restrictions on the entitiy they are speaking to, like telling them they can only communicate through the board but can not attach themselves to anyone, or hurt anyone, ect. I'm not sure how ColeWayne's great grandmother used it or what her method was, but it worked for her because she was experienced. But for someone who isn't versed "in the art" I would suggest, like what you said Mystic, to stay far, far away! :)
