After the election I predict ATS will be a ghost town

Even just losing a dozen of the most active, most recent and most one sided "posters" would probably cut site traffic down by 40 percent.

Some of these people have thousands of posts A WEEK.

Be great if they all leave and stop dragging this place down with their nonsense. I for one hope the op's prediction comes true.

If only we were so lucky.

I won't bet on it though.
The disinformation campaigns are never ending...

Only a ghost town as far as those who came here to only support 'their guy". I hope a lot of the regs come back for some interesting content. That is opposed to those sticking around to whine about their guy loosing vs sticking around to flaunt that their guy had won.

I'm confused.

Is this good news or bad news for the paranormal forum?

Good news as political topics won't leak into the main forum areas.

I would love to talk about ghosts again.

Man.....I can't wait for this BS to finish. You guys are either voting for Big Pharma/Big Corporate in Trump, or Middle East consortium and Military Industrial Complex in Hillary.

Either way, none of them are truly going to represent proper change, or look after the everyday worker/citizen.

If Trump gets in, watch all the benefits roll out to Big Multinationals
if Hillary gets in, watch all the funding get cut to research, art and science and pushed towards Military

Sanders was your only true hope like Ron Paul was previously.

This world sucks. We are all trapped and we will never get out if we keep accepting the current paradigm.

I like your Chutzpah but that's not the case.

The weird will rule then, in that dark in-between space.

ATS will get good and weird.

No. you're wrong
ATS is a popular site with many longstanding members, like myself and there's plenty of other topics to discuss.

It will be interesting to see the absence of certain folks...

Then extrapolate why the may have been here in the first place....

...of course to proclaim as much directly may violate the T&Cs

so I place this into the "dust bin" category

There will still be plenty of political topics to discuss. I'll still be here posting cuz Ats is awesome.

I wish ATS hadnt become so politisised

Bring back the old days with real "Out There" topics.

This political obsession is doing my head in.

OK this ones for you Rigel

Holy Grail? Nazi bell?

We will be back to conspiracy topics regarding Bigfoot, Aliens, Extra Sensorial Habilities, Area 51, Exotic Technology, Shapeshifters, ahhhh the good old days!

I don't think so....

The political gloating seems to have taken ATS to another level.

a reply to: olaru12

if one is going to decry the gloating - that is ones perogative - but i find the " appologies " and " congratulation " posts and threads to be much more enteraining

the gloaters are very bland and predictable [ my opinion ]

but the weasel worded back handed " appologies and congratulations " - are hilarious to read again just my opinion
