Back from the shady lurking shadows, forgot my old password.

Good evening all,
Been a long time since I have logged in but glad to be back. Was tim2win before. There are just so many things going on at the moment and so need a little rational conversation. Still after all these years this is my go to site for current events and balanced views, even if you have to read opinions from lunatics from both extremes to balance that scale. Looking forward to some decent conversations.

Collie.

Hi .

Was a hint of sarcasm there, this place is crazy town sometimes.

a reply to: Ksihkehe

I do too.

I've been trying to convince him to read them before he posts, but the man is a true maverick.

a reply to: Ksihkehe
I like these off the cuff posts, more honesty.

a reply to: Ksihkehe

Think I only put together one decent thread which turned out to be bull# and I think I asked to remove but gotta figure out how to do it again.

Hi There " collie ", and welcome (back) to the Introductions Forum, a place to say hello to the ATS community!

For now, you can reply to any thread in any of the forums of your choosing, as well as send & receive Private Messages (PM's) to Staff (only for now). Once you have achieved 5 posts, you will then be able to start your own threads and additionally send & receive messages to and from fellow ATS members.

Here's some handy links, important must read links (and more links).

Terms & Conditions Of Use (Please read, we take these very seriously and so should you!).

Start Here - ATS Freshmans Forum A cornocopia of almost every thing a new ATS Freshman would want under one roof.

Hey new members!! Come here if you need advice This section includes how to Contact Staff, make Alerts and help maintain the ATS Discussion Etiquette.

Starting a New Thread ?... Look Here First
Great information as we want your thread to get the visibility it deserves, so make sure you've got great content backed-up with links (so we can see it for ourselves), and then add your thoughts on the subject matter.

IMPORTANT: Using Content From Other Websites on ATS. Before you link a website in your post or thread, please read this.

How to upload an avatar/profile picture with instructions and so much more .

Uploading Pictures unto Post-2013 ATS, Serving up member's pictures and snapshots since the retooling of ATS back in 2013, and here's a little secret on your Picture uploads. Always make sure they 'end' with one of these three formats; jpg, gif, png... (a jpeg needs to be changed to .jpg to be accepted as only 3 letter formats are accepted).

Take your time and enjoy, ATS is a pretty large place

There's a lot of great spots to explore and share your comments in. Being this large it's safe to say that not everyone is going to agree with what you might say. And actually that's a good thing as this allows all voices, theories and ideas to come out for discussion.

But be aware that sometimes, people's conviction's can get the better of them and they might attack the person and not the subject being discussed. This is when the T&C's are your friend and on your side. Please notify us of 'their offense' immediately by using the complaint/alert feature. To report an offense, find the little "top-torso-person silhouette" to 'click-on' in their avatar/meme area, make sure the post that your wanting to alert us about is where you click 'that alert' from. These reports are reviewed by staff as we take all complaints and Alerts seriously.

Some areas will require a thicker-skin for discussion and debating and they can get rather heated (in certain arenas). Other areas require you having an open-mind and a need to consider thoughts and theories that don't fit the 'norm'. If you like to tip-toe in to darker areas, you'll find 'like-minded' and curious members that are also into UFO's, the Paranormal, Cryptids and Conspiracies.

There's also places to just chill and cool-down from all the craziness and frustrations of this wild world. Whether it's showing off your artwork in Member Art, or sharing a piece of music you like or created in the Music forum. Maybe you'd like to toss in your "2 Cents" in the General Chit Chat forum.

If you like to read (and compose) good stories, there's a few places for the "mighty fine creative minds" of ATS to hang out at.... including one my favorites the "Short Stories" forum.

And finally... remember these words as "you" are responsible for "your" posts, so please..... " Post unto others as you would have them post unto you!! "

honesty

Whoa whoa whoa!

Easy on the hammers, gunslinger.

Let's start with inoffensive facts. Let everybody get acclimated to that before we bring out the big guns like inconvenient truths and honesty.

They are a simple people. They worship tiny virulent molecules and somebody named Brandon. You'll catch on now that you're back, it's a ... it's a hoot. You're in for a treat. We have delusions in Ukraine/Russia threads, denial in COVID threads, and derision in every thread. Something for everybody really.

a reply to: Ksihkehe

Will try to address each topic.

Feel bad for Brandon, not sure if he died a while back and now he is on strings.

Ukraine/Russia, Too much money being made to end anytime soon. Seems like some mad people want to expand this war.

Covid, This one gets me. Had 2 shots of pfizer and been sick many more times than ever, notihng serious but never caught cold or flu before.

Sorry for the punctuation, new comp and everything is in the wrong place.

You had one of the pre-QWERTY keyboards, eh?

Pretty spot on with the rest. I don't know if it could be summed up any quicker without swearing.

a reply to: Ksihkehe

Took a while to write even though it was supposed to be a summary, cursed so many times had to go to smoke twice.

a reply to: Ksihkehe
No, literally everything is in the wrong place, the keys dont match the commands.

a reply to: collie

Change keyboard layout in windows settings. In Windows 10 it's under Language in system settings.

Welcome back.

a reply to: collie

Hello and welcome back!

a reply to: collie

You got it backwards. Ok now...you said it: "after all these years this is my go to site for current events and balanced views"...youre joking right?

Get all the nonsense MSM news you can stand first...Yahoo, NBC, Reuters, CNNasty, BBC...wherever....

Then...come here for the real deal (most times).

Here? We are more responsive to issues not on here...therefore starting here...may in fact be out of order.


Welcome back......
