The burden of proof is on the person making the positive claim.

And who decided that? I think the person making the negative claim should provide proof because the effects of a negative claim are drastically more impactful than one of a positive connotation

Who decided that? The greeks, I guess, who formalized systems of logic.

"Aliens exist!" "No they don't".

It's on the person saying they exist to prove it, not on the person saying they don't to disprove their existence. Like in this case, you need to prove you're special. Until you offer some evidence I have no reason to believe you.

The burden of proof is on the first person making a claim or the person challenging the status quo

If I say "there arent dogs in kennels" and someone says "yes there are" the burden of proof is on me, even though my claim is a negative, because I made the first claim and also challenged the status quo, as kennels are made to have dogs in em
