Where has ATS gone?
Anyone can take a picture in the dark...........
I have begun a reply to this post several times, only to cancel because I know from experience that posting when I'm angry gets me in trouble.
IMAdamnALIEN, I have a question for you. What does a person posting a photo they took and asking for help identifying/analyzing it have to do with the
quality of ATS? In my opinion, that's part of what ATS is
for, and does not detract from ATS one bit.
If someone posts an experience without photos or video, they are criticized and scolded for not having any evidence.
If someone posts a blurry or unclear photo, disgust and annoyance are expressed for the quality of the evidence.
If someone posts a nice clear photo or video, the cries of "FAKE!" and "HOAX!" immediately start.
This is a no-win situation for people who want to come to ATS and actually contribute something, and I say that it is people like you who are lowering
the quality of ATS with your rudeness, negativity, scorn, and bad attitude. Chasing off everyone who shows up to share an experience or evidence
certainly does not make ATS any better.
Did your mother never tell you "If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything?" Can you not be adult enough to just hit your BACK
arrow and move on if you don't like what you see? What is the
point to insulting and belittling someone who is asking for help?
There are plenty of other things I'd like to say to you, but they'd be quickly removed by a Mod if I did, so I'm done.

Bugs_n_recovery, your anomaly is certainly a UFO since no one has conclusively identified it. I do not personally think that it is either paranormal
or alien, but I still thank you for posting it. Every anomalous picture has value, at least for learning from and having it to compare other photos
to. I appreciate your sharing it with us!
Remember that ATS is a public forum, and as such it is only a reflection of the "real world." In here, as out there, there are people whose
self-esteem is so low and self-image so poor that they live by attacking, belittling, and criticizing everyone around them in a mostly futile attempt
to make themselves feel better. Personally, I
try to imagine how miserable their existence must be and try to have compassion/pity for them
instead of getting angry. It makes my own life more peaceful and pleasant.
There are also many people here at ATS who are curious, interested, intelligent, friendly, and helpful. Please allow the positive element to prevail
and continue to share your experiences, evidence, and insights with us. I, and others like me, welcome them and you!
