I don't know what to say here.... ATS seems to be down

[kdog]

So, what makes that place so special ? Comfort, community  , shared knowledge? Decorum and civility ? 

Is it more of an addiction? A special club for lonely people ? 

There are plenty of other places. 

I met my wife because ATS went down, there is even a facebook page dedicated to that called ATS Downtime, and I was reminded of the birth of it a few days ago. Led to to another group, closed to all but members called the bunker. 

One thing led to another, long story, I am happier then I have ever been. 

Every site holds a special place to you, but don't throw all your eggs in one basket.

ATS was the first CT community I joined.  I was chasing after the conspiracy surrounding the JFK Murder.
I didn't really go to other places, as ATS was active enough to hold my attention. 
It was a lot different back then.  And it's gone through a lot of changes and a lot of members.

I  get about not having all you eggs in one basket.  I joined reddit about four years ago, and mostly avoid the insanity there with the subs I have joined.  Like r/husky, r/weather. r/knitting, r/aww, r/oldschoolcool.

I think ATS is home to members for a lot of different reasons.

kdog, I am glad you have found happiness in your life :)
That is more than many people can say.

Thank you ! You should try r/conspiracy .
