Hi, long time lurker here.

Hi ATS members, I've been a long time lurker brought here by my interest in UFO's but lately have been unable to escape the political mud pit. Now, I'm kinda shy and I may not post often so I apologize in advance. I look forward to my future time spent here in sponge mode and hopefully make a friend or two. Thank You

Hello DS, and welcome to ATS!
May your shyness be a blessing, that helps you understand all of this better.

Welcome my friend!

Glad you joined instead of continuing to lurk as I bet your contributions here will be worth reading.

Of course we may disagree, but that's cool.

As long as we do so with an open mind and are civil, you're going to do just fine!

Let me know if I can help you in any way.

Welcome to ATS!

Posting is better than lurking anyway! Plus you do not see all those ads (I know for a fact I will never watch Clown ever and man, had to lurk for a week and boy did I get of seeing that one).

Leave the place in a better condition than when you found it!

Welcome to ATS, bit of a lurker myself

Welcome. I love the UFO forum myself. It has been a bit bland as of late. Enjoy your time here.

Thank you all for the warm welcome

Hello DS and welcome.

I'm hoping the political stuff will die down soon and we can go back to talking about aliens and fun stuff.

I bet this place will get you over some of your shyness at least. ATS is crazy at times, but its a good crazy, not creepy insane alcoholic uncle crazy.
