Goodbye ATS.

Perhaps we're all a little bit brothers and sisters from another mother ?

I like drinking.....and I'm good at it!

My only regret is that I'll miss my 16th anniversary here on ATS.

a reply to: MrGashler

Well ..we found out a few times it wasn't all about $$. Poof....just gone. Lights left on...they split...changed all the passwords......

Since 2010...I've been suspecting the #1 Conspiracy site....and one of the 1st 15 yrs ago....as being "infiltrated".

'course. Good luck to you and us all......

Visit: Deny Ignorance and Discord. Much family over there and counting.....
✌️

If I have to see this thread pop up on the right again I'm going to cry.

Don't make The Disco King cry.

Why does this feel like the most important and meaningful post I will ever make on ATS?
I've been here for 13 years (2011). Ironically 13 is my lucky number!
Seeing as a few of you have posted some great songs as a 'finale', this is the performance that makes me feel the way I do about the friends I have made here, some of whom I have met in person and proud and priveleged to call friends. Not least one particular moderator who has made Plan B possible.... note the t-shirt in the video

I sincerely hope to see many of you over on DI, life wouldn't be quite the same if there wasn't a 'Plan B' to look forward to and new beginnings.
My boots are made for walking.....

Cheers everyone.........

Let's go out on a high.......

That looks remarkably alike to racist trolling.

Sorry : this poster is not responsible for what your eyes see, senses perceive, and your brain interprets.

I've been here since the days before Simon Grey (under my prior persona Bhadhidar, before adding the "2023" suffix following the first ATS "blackout").

So long that I don't even remember when I joined!


If this [li]is the actual End, I want to thank all of you, here, and past, for an entertaining, sometimes enlightening, often exasperating, decades long home.


In my time on ATS I've always tried to bring truth, and reason to any discussion I joined. Usually I was welcomed. Sometimes I was ridiculed. Occasionally I was ignored.


But never was I ever bored!



Stay well. Stay interested.


And to borrow from the late, great Douglas Adams........


"So long, and Thanks for All the.....Sh*t!

I made the 15 year mark and I miss my friend NightStar.

I hope it's not so long but it might be.

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

- Dylan Thomas.

Thank you. That is apt and pure. God Bless you and keep you safe.

Until we meet again.

a reply to: angelchemuel Great post Jane!
That Amazing grace is almost note for note the way I sing it over the years. I wish I could sing it for y'all but I want to stay more private than that. I did get asked to sing that by musicians who would bring me into sing at their Church on occasion. I normally don't have such a fantastic soundtrack/background sound like he had. A couple of times I had that type of support at a big predominantly African American Church in Nashville my birthplace and former city about 20 years back.

I know a coalition was formed to buy the site, when it was up for sale.
I know I can tap investors.
| know a clone (not correct, but for the everyman) has been formed.

It's up to the owners to see it survive, sell it off, or bury it.

So long, ATS.

And.

Thanks for all the fish.

Ha, I had a 4 paragraph post typed and ready to reply, I fell asleep and deleted the whole damn post...

I spent a lot of years here a lot of friends. We talk about the conspiracy stuff UFOS ghosts etc. but damn Ive got some solid AF advice over the years from atopic pregnancies, colic, divorces, dating in your 30s, blended families, good eats, good vacation spots, where to stay when traveling for work, good books, good movies, cancer treatments, paternal nutrition, we laughed and a lot of times we were shocked and saddened staying up all night monitoring whatever world wide crisis was occurring.

I spent a lot of time here and many of you I call friends as much as you can be friends in this format. I love we have worldwide representation, apart from the minor international incident during the Queen's Jubilee.
LOL now that's a thread I'd like to read again, Of course, that was years ago before we had real stuff and had to make up stuff to piss and moan about.

Regardless .... thanks Gortex he posted Leo's covers here ,damn he can metalized any song and this popped into my playlist its fairly apropos



because

Seems very apt.
