New ATS Owner [Was: ATS WILL CONTINUE TO LIVE]

I always knew ATS would would stay up somehow. I am glad to hear this.

This web site and the membership and staff makes the world a better place, perhaps that's why it will live on.

Must have had the correct change.....ATS is now showing up on Twitter again.

Honeypot anyone?

Obviously I'm very happy that ATS will continue but I'll be sad to see The Three Amigos go.

I remember when they were active contributors to ATS and I think the quality of content has slipped since they and some senior/long standing staff and admin withdrew, disappeared and/or took more of a backseat.

I think all three deserve our gratitude and eternal respect and I can only hope the new owners conduct themselves with a similar level of integrity.

Thanks guys, you'll be sorely missed.

I look forward to hearing from the new owners and seeing what their plans are for ATS.
I think its important we give them time to find their feet and prove their intent.

I'm pleased to let everyone know that signatures have been executed. Over the next few days, as the transition of ownership plays out, you will learn much more.


But...


In the end...


There is no end for ATS. Carry on.

Congrats for all of you and thanks for running ATS over the past two decades.

Great!, make way for the new Honduran/Salvadoran cooking forums...

If it doesn't start by banning DB I'm going to Reddit.

I look forward to learning the details of the new ownership.

Congratulations and thank you to the current owners for the past 11 yrs or so I've spent here.

Job well done!

Did he use the wrong pronoun for you? We’re you not cis’d?

Yeah, but being we're the same person I can understand his confusion.

Woo hoo, great news! I'd hope at least a few of the current admins and staff would stick around for continuity's sake, plus a few (like Springer) have some great connections and inside intel that added to the forums, the AMAs like with folks like Knapp, DeLonge, going to Skinwalker ranch etc

Plot twist. The new owner IS DB.

Any chance that the new owners will be chineese or russian,,? Not that it matters if they are commited and underestand how important a site like this is. The only fear I have is that the CIA or an other sneaky (foreign) government agency wants to know who has "alternative" thoughts.

It doesn't matter. You're still a human living in @~(x)^2~1 and are still afforded the freedom of thought. Unless you're a Scottish boy in the UK, better stay quiet if that's the case.

Why would the CIA or other 3 letter agency want to monitor a site where revolution is discussed; And often promoted?

My mama gut tells me we will be going from the 3 Amigos to
the 3 Idiots! We will find out soon the suspense is killing me.

That's not a very nice thing to say about someone you haven't even met yet.
I'm trying to keep an open mind and not pre-judge someone I haven't met.
I do have a lot of questions about the new owner(s) but hopefully they will be answered soon.
Thanks to the previous owners for what you did, and thanks to the new owner(s) for saving the site from an untimely end.

Well I look forward to meeting our new overlord(s)!

LOL, she's referring to DB, TAT and me, 'The Three Idiots'.

Because we are.

I kinda hope it will give you all the opportunity to participate more as members now, too!

I'm pretty sure that FauxMulder was kidding when they alleged that DB was the new owner.
