Define 'right-wing'....

ok, full over fall down face plant right wing? Is that better?

You seem have fallen for their plot to divide us all...

Hi There " franklen ", and welcome 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 ! "

Welcome...

I do know after watching this website it has become very political leaning to the right wing. I am not right wing.

"Leaning to the rightwing" is being kind. imo....more like a Qcult whine festival. That's what makes it so much fun!!!

What exactly is "right wing" about Q or Trump?
LoL.
LMAO.

Aliens are fine. But cryptocurrencies? Really? Come on dude. This site is supposed to be about like, Bigfoot and stuff, not fake computer money.

Thanks.. leaving home in a minute for a Christmas party, but, it has been awhile, id there a way to follow my thread and respond without going back to the "new threads" ATS page?

Merry Christmas! There are several ways. Try clicking the "myATS" at the top of the screen to the right. Or, try clicking your own username if you're in a thread you've posted.

Also, to see replies, click the mailbox icon at the top right (you actually have to scroll up unlike "myATS" which is in the bar menu that follows you down as you scroll) and then click the conversation bubbles button. This is also the screen where you can send and receive private messages.

Also you can send messages by just clicking on someone's profile, the little "person" icon 👤that opens up a menu with several options

Unfortunately it’s become increasingly political. Welcome. Hopefully you find what you’re looking for.

a reply to: franklen

Welcome franklen.

There's plenty of really cool material especially if you check out some of the older threads over the years. The politics is discussed here a lot, but I feel it's often just people reacting. venting, getting stuff of their chest. I prefer to explore other topics, however if some politics come up about Canada, I occasionally will jump in.

There's often some good humour to be found reading over some of the political threads. I have spit my coffee out laughing hard more than a few times, getting caught of guard by the light-hearted way some of my neighbours down south see things.


If you remember some cool older topics about aliens or cryptids, don't be shy, start a new thread and have at her. Our community has been around for a long time, so reminding us of older topics or putting your own spin on the sorts of ideas you think about is a welcome addition.

I sometimes wish I hadn't got rid of old books at garage sales for example. Some of them had otherworldly topics or articles that I don't remember see ever seeing on the web, and don't remember enough to start a thread on.

Welcome to ATS!

Left, right, center, middle left, middle right, who's counting? IMO, politics are of a personal choice, but some like to 'share' their views.

All fine by me, I'm Canadian, I do not believe in a red/blue political arena as most do but still enjoy reading about it.

Still some pretty good threads, in here, on other topics though..

And like you, I'm a member returning from a looooong hiatus.

Enjoy your return !!

Sol.

A Masochist? why would I want to hurt myself?

Yes, that's what I'm wondering.

Why do you want to hurt yourself?

You're a troll, just look at your post...3....2...1
