We Need To keep ATS open and online

With the number of anti ATS thread I see here today I thought it appropriate to start a thread dedicated keeping ATS open and online. Think about how cool it is to have such a great site like this.

We have breaking alternative news where we get to read about so much both in the mainstream and fringe. I won't lie, I get the majority of my news strait from ATS and most of the time before it is reported in the Mainstream.

ATS also has the research forums where one can investigate things ranging from John Titor to the Rife Machine... The research forum is an Awesome and often overlooked forum.

We have the Really Above Top Secret forum where we can post really secerative things we don't want the web bots to find.

It gives us all so much. We should all buy some ATS swag whenever we can and thank the three amigos and all the Mods for keeping this site stellar.

It really is the best darn site on the web.

Agreed. Many people just say that ATS should be closed just because some members dont agree to their views or just because they cant follow the rules. The simple word should be, "If you dont like the site, dont post or leave this site; dont blame the site and ask it to be closed".

I only saw one thread about that today . Can you link to the other ones? I'm in a ranting mood and would like to contribute

The breaking alternative news forum is amazing! I see stories on here sometimes days before the MSM gets around to reporting them. The tanks rolling into Tehran thread still hasn't been discussed in the MSM (as far as I know), for example.

I think if I'm expected to donate money to this business venture, the least they could do is take down the uber annoying adds that I'm sure nobody has ever clicked on purposefully because they're actually here to discuss conspiracy theories while shopping.

Indeed and I think it is also important for us to remember that it is on us to make this site better. The longer I live here the more I respect the standards we all insist upon. The more I try to help others. By god I may even adopt a member one day.

Truly this site does deny ignorance. Their are no taboo subjects like travistock or the owners plans for the site. Heck one can even rail against this site. That is more freespeech than I have seen anywhere else on the web. And even though some may come and some may go I still find there is no other site I like more than this one.

Edit to say: I have clicked on an ad once. It was a Samatha Who ad. Also If I had the cash I would buy a Hat just so I could go to my own local Masonic lodge and take a photo so that I could upload here here as one of our other ATS posters have.

This is a truly fun site, like really. Interesting, mostly fake, articles about UFOs and conspiracies and stuff but sometimes it just becomes too much. MY complaint is the lack of knowledge of Socialism/Capitalism/Fascism and all that jazz. People call things that they don't agree on, "Socialism".

It's irritating! But it should stay online. This is a great fun site.

I have frequently bragged to my family that ATS gets the news before the news gets the news, and I take great pleasure in "breaking" interesting news stories days before CNN gets them.

Long Live ATS!

Yes keep it open, as far as I can see there are no legitimate reasons to close it.

For the people who want to close ATS, I would like to ask WHY ARE YOU STILL ON HERE? IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!

ATS has, for me:

Given explanations for conspiracy theories from intelligent, well-rounded people who, for the most part, don't mind sharing their information or answering a well thought out argument.

Shown how annoying trolling is.

Reinforced my religion, which was sometimes contrary to a poster's aims.

Taught patience with contrary views as well, because with patience it's easier to learn.

Provided forewarning pertaining to almost any possible future outcome in almost any political, financial or social trend.

taken my dog betsy for a walk.

shown there might be a place for light humour in serious discussion.


so yeah, long live ats.

I'm new here.

I've been on a lot of forums and this place is one of the best! Keep the information flowing!!!

Yes, ATS has changed my life in a way. I find that if ATS were to shut down, then It would mean that part of my life would be ripped from me. So please dont close ATS.

well no -- if they are working against the principals ... let them suffer the consequences of thier own making... its the american way... and I'm not sure this is a site in America... a number of things make me think this site is hosted out of the UNITED KINGDOM... but I could be wrong.... I notice a lot of Isreali's posts here... with odd view points... that stick out as Trolls.
I have to agree, as long as sites like ATS are online their is no need to head towards WDC with the masses when they come to retrieve their stolen property...

Now I just gotta ask ya Heyo... How did ATS walk your dog? You must mean one of the Mods walked your dog.. Surely the site itsself has not become skynet aware of itself.

I do love that quote though.

ATS: a place for light humor and serious discussion.

Thanks for posting this.

We should keep ATS online because this is where we can use freedom of speech and not have people thinking we are insane.

At such an auspicious time I feel it relevant to say that nothing but a ban hammer from the mods themselves would keep me from this site.

It is an awesome site even in times like these... And to heck with those Hi-jackers PHBT on them!
