After coming across ATS multiple times over the past year while researching information from homework or readings; ATS just kept showing up and I do not believe in coincidence for the most part, I decided to join. I have never been part of a forum and have spent a good hour or two reading the rules and how-to and still feel a little confused yet I understand it is part of the process. I have found many of the topics and responses to intrigue me and encourage thoughts about many things I would often "stew" about alone. I enjoy the image of a round table discussion about things most people avoid talking about today.
I am on the last leg for my BA and am headed for my Master's degree, all are in health and has caused an interesting perspective of the world. The more I learn the more I see wrong in and about the would and look forward to exploring all of these issues that not only I see with ATS.

So far after tons of reading and just clicking randomly I figured a few things out. Some are not so much common sense but right there like "in your face" stuff yet will all the information on each screen it took me some time. I found out how to follow forums there are little labels under the title where the "Flags" are that let you select it as a favorite and then it sits your "myATS" so you can get to it right away.

I was amazed that you could also follow a specific members post so if they share a common interest you can look for threads that way, that I found under the name and avatar. Under that there is a way to friend and "rival" another member, I am still not sure the purpose of the rival I am honestly not comfortable clicking it just yet.

I do not know how to link to other threads yet found a bunch of information searching and came up with a forum on the updates. Just keep browsing around you will run into all the stuff you need.
