I've heard the argument (that I actually agree wtih having thought about it) that since the main protagonists don't talk about the mysteries outside of their little gang (as prompted by Journal 3's "Trust No One"), the Society never got a whiff of their experiences.

For example: We know Lazy Susan got caught right after a phone call (to the police).

Robbie was probably caught because he was trying to show off to some friends by saying he beat up some giant pixelated guy (according to his memories, he lied). Also, in those memories, he says "a ten year old kid", but does not name Dipper.

Also, Grunkle Stan and his relation (whatever it is) to all the weirdness in Gravity Falls gives them some sort of protection (possibly in relation to The Royal Order of the Holy Mackarel, or maybe something else).

I will concede that this argument only has two pieces of evidence....but we really haven't seen much yet.

OOOORRRRR, maybe they DID get some memories erased but they/we don't know it!!!! There were a lot of tubes in the hall of the forgotten....
