Many I've had conversations/arguements with over the years, others just a familiar name, or avvy. I gave a lot of time, and parts of my heart and soul to ATS over the years...fifteen of 'em, both as a member and staff. ...and, please, do not at anytime ask about anything that happened behind the curtain there. I gave my word that it would remain there. There it will remain for all time. I'm looking forward to being just a regular member...all too often I practiced a great deal of self-editing because of my position on ATS. That will not be the case here...grrrrrr. :mediumserious: : RE: To all the xATS’ers - I feel you - veteranhumanbeing - 06-23-2020 (06-22-2020, 07:08 AM)MisterSpock Wrote: Anyone banned from ATS was banned for good reason....You have a uniquely 'judging' perspective (no associations involving any other persons not demonstrating your thesis allowed).

I got banned from ATS after less than a year by Skeptic. But one of the Mods got me back on again. I kind of said something that Skeptik thought a guest speaker wouldn't like, but the guest speaker actually didn't mind what I said when he responded to my post a day later.

G'day Fin ! ? RE: To all the xATS’ers - I feel you - AutomateThis1 - 06-23-2020 I'll tell a story that may fill in some of my history with ATS, since we are all going down memory lane. I first caught wind of ATS when I was about ten years old. I can't recall what it was exactly that lead me to ATS, but at the time I was searching for information about cryptids, aliens, and secret government bases. The information I found myself perusing was scary, eye opening, and enlightening. I felt like I was learning things that was supposed to be shrouded in secrecy. Every passing day as a child I felt that it was only a matter of time before some government official came knocking to scare me from ever wanting to dig into conspiracies. As I got older I continued to visit ATS on a regular basis. I watched members come and go. Saw the various changes the site went through. Saw alliances forged and foes made. I saw members leave due to various reasons. There was no lack of accusations to be had. I saw that many people left because they were tired of arguing what they believed in all the time, and I saw people banned for whatever reason. I saw people who once identified as liberal begin to claim to be conservative or at least refuse to vote for Democrat. Politics became a more prominent issue on the site, especially with how it seemed how everything eventually went back to which politician was doing what and why. In recent years it seems practically every conspiracy theory had a political slant to it. Medical conspiracies, corporate conspiracies, red flags, military conspiracies, religious conspiracies, all have political connections. Hell, the only things that really don't have any political connection are cryptids. Well, about a couple of years ago I decided to make an account and it went well for a while, but there was a specific member who was getting on my nerves. Spouting a lot of ridiculous opinions about the economy, and one thing lead to another and I'm pretty sure I got banned, because I found myself logged out and unable to log back in. I took a break, because I was really irritated that someone who predicted stock values using astrology was being taken seriously. My break lasted about a year I think, and I came back as AutomateThis. I love ATS, but I honestly think it's time has come. From the time I was ten until now when I'm thirty ATS was the one site that I visited on a daily basis. I learned a lot from the information and the members. But, the current iteration of ATS isn't all that. I don't mean that in anyway that's disrespectful to anyone. It's just that the daily arguments, the ego stroking, the opinions stated as irrefutable fact, and that people would rather read a OP Title, not read the actual post, and proceed to instigate arguments is ridiculous. I like to think that ATS was my home for the longest, and that over the past twenty years it was instrumental in allowing me to grow and see a different side to things. Now, it's time to venture out, and interact with others, and go about pursuing the things that interest me. That's the reason that I am taking my cameras and going to go to spots that are purported to have mysterious phenomenon involved. I will create a YouTube channel, and share what I find.

That will not be the case here...grrrrrr. Self editing is good thing. I used to have a temper that was legendary. My mother took me aside one day, sat me down and had a long heart to heart with me. She basically made it clear that if I didn't learn how to control my temper, I was going to end up in jail or murdered. It took a while, but I, for the most part, have done a fairly good job of keeping my temper in check. With a lot of self editing. RE: To all the xATS’ers - I feel you - IAMTAT - 06-23-2020 I never cared whether or not ATS was the biggest, best...or most popular forum. I came for the weird stuff...I stayed for the weird people. If and when ATS closes shop...will go where they go...and quite a few of them are coming here.

It always seemed a decent reflection of "normal" society outside the digital veil. Politics creeped into everything there with about the same timing as everywhere else that wasnt facebook/twitter. I had actually thought I was just gonna go down with the e-ship and leave the net.. But I dont know how else to share the tech stuff I have worked on. So, here we are! I saw redneck, rickymouse, and The Spock here and figured itd be good. Can I post one liners or naughty words here?

Good to see you made it over!! RE: To all the xATS’ers - I feel you - SecretKnowledge - 06-23-2020 When i started a thread on ATS last week titled "Post a site similar to ATS", i was hoping for somewhere where everybody knows your name.. LOL. This site right here is exactly what i was hoping for, it couldnt be any more perfect for me. It looks great in dark mode, the user interface (is that the correct terminology?) is easy to navigate, and best of all, theres already a good few familiar names. Plus the new names (to me) are friendly and very helpful. I already know this is the place for me RE: To all the xATS’ers - I feel you - xtrozero - 06-23-2020 (06-22-2020, 07:06 AM)Freija Wrote: Howdy!
