hello from vancouver

Hello,

I've been reading the forums here for months, and finally decided to sign up. Instead of hiding behind an avatar, I decided to use my regular username so you could all verify who I am if need be.

I live in Vancouver, BC, and have always had an interest in conspiracy theories, even though I look for the most rational explanation.

I have a couple small stories, but nothing worth front page.

It's good to be here.

[edit] I forgot to say I am an experienced programmer, used to build websites but now I make games.

lol. Nope, actually in New Westminster, but close enough to Vancouver. I wouldn't be able to live downtown, especially on Davie st! haha

Why the move to Toronto if you loved it on this end? I'm close to Burnaby, it's a really nice area.

Welcome mate. I'm kind of a new guy myself and also a programmer, web myself

Best of luck here.

I know that story all too well, thankfully that's what brought me to Vancouver instead of your situation. I love this city!

I figured I'd find many more web guys here.

I actually have a full multimedia certification, which means I work in all forms of popular media. I hope this can help in debunking some technical trickery frauds.

Greetings sstark

Hello VanCity!
Interior of BC, born and raised.
Good to have your expertise.

reply to post by heyo


Interior's great, I lived in Prince george, Kamloops and Kelowna aswel... but mostly Kamloops. Strange little place.

reply to post by sstark


I lived there for four years and grew up nearby.
'tis a strange little place for sure.

reply to post by sstark


Im near the Cambie sky train station. As for anything strange, you bet!

I have a thread of something I saw fly over my house heading East a couple of years ago. It was 3am and I didnt have a camera or video camera with me so all I could do was draw a picture.

Welcome!I look forward to seeing you around the boards.
Enjoy your stay!!

Welcome to ATS SStark..... very entertaining city you live in. I spent two summers there in between oil fields in Alaska.

Plenty to see and do here..... I like the way you characterized your skepticism. Sounds akin to the scientific method, and we always need critical thinking.

I give you seventeen days before you're a confirmed ATS addict.

Welcome!
