I love conspiracies; not preaching and scary stuff!
Me too
I haven't been a member of ATS very long (although I was reading stuff on it before I became a member) but lately it is hard to find good threads to read. I want to read about conspiracies, mysteries, something to get my teeth into, not doom and gloom.
I wish there was a way of hiding all the doomsday threads from the list so it would be easier for us to find the good stuff

After all the doom threads lately (and they have increased by 1000% it seems), it would appear that people are following this with the herd mentality. It's almost like they WANT these catastrophes to happen. These threads are always started under some premise like "get prepared for the end of society!!" and so on, etc. I'm starting to see these threads as more pornography than anything. Addicting and escapist behavior that removes one temporarily from the harsh reality, monotony, and boredom of real life.
I have one question:
Are YOU prepared mentally in case nothing happens? What will happen to ATS, to most of the members on here, when June 24th (day after Operation Blackjack), Oct 12th (day after ET_Man's prediction), and Dec 22nd 2012 comes and goes and nothing of note happens. What will YOU do? Will you be duped into the next doomsday date? Will you become disillusioned with anything to do with conspiracies? Will you even return to this website? Is that maybe what the plan was all along? Will you chase David Wilcock, web bot guys, and timewave zero people through the streets with sticks now that you have invested tens of thousands of dollars into survival gear and dehydrated foods for nothing? I personally know many people that are so emotionally invested into this EOTWAWKI scenario that i seriously fear for them if nothing happens.
I'm genuinely curious.
