hi, i'm new

hello ats long time lurker here, finally got the nerves and drive so decided to sign up. I have actually been a lurker since maybe the last two years while living with my great uncle, I'm a guy in my mid 20's and I found ats while doing some google searches one night and slowly became very interested to read everyone's views. ats to me is more of an alternate news and media source. I'm not really much of a writer than a lurker reader, but i will contribute whatever I can.

Welcome!

When posting or even making a thread the site encourages lots of info and insight! A ton of members these days usually just post 1 liners, or make threads with little or no information, so yea, try your best to put in quality, and quantity!

(but sometimes 1 liners are what works best too!)

Just thought i'd let you know that!

Keep and open mind, and always remember that the world we live in is a lot more mysterious and magical than most of us want to believe. Even the most far-out topics could be possible.

Good to have ya

AboveTopSecret is much like a theme park with many, many rides, so with that said...
Here's a few thoughts before getting onto any one of the 1000's of topical rides at Above Top Secret, also known as ATS, the world's largest Civil & Unique Discussion Community.

*** Please be sure to be at least this tall to get on any of the rides, (Johnny stretches his arm outward), and act like an 'civil' adult. This will save you a lot of future stress, frustration and possible action by one of your friendly neighborhood Mods!

*** Please remember that some members are very passionate and vocal depending on what ride your all on. You should be mentally fit, stable and have a strong stomach for theories, conjecture, research and evidence presented that may be contrary to your own.

*** Please be "open-minded" enough to understand that sometimes the ride isn't always what you might think or expect. Be aware you also might end up learning something new and 'out-of-the-box' before you get off the ride.

*** Please note that at times the ride gets overly-heated and "it's strongly suggested" to get off the ride to regroup one's thoughts before continuing. This will also help guarantee that the ride will move forward without getting derailed or explode into a fiery trashbin.

*** Please have fun! Be aware if you act in an uncivil-like manner, use profanity, intentionally spread a hoax and/or get verbally abusive, you will be removed off the ride by a Moderator. This is for your safety, & also for those both young and old on the ride with you.

So buckle up, keep your arms within the ride's comfort zone, have fun and "Deny Ignorance"...!

Hello

Welcome to the nut house.

So what topics brought you to ATS? You said you were a lurker so where did you do your lurking?

What topics are of interest to you

Current Events Mostly Not much of a UFO Guy, Used to look at the Bermuda Triangle Theory and Area 51 a few years back, ATS has some good takes on it. But right now I'm more interested on alternate news, what I read on ATS hits my local news 2 days later with a lot of bias.

Hello and welcome to ATS
