what was the first ever thread on ats?

just thinking what was the first thread on ats or do they get deleted after time ,iv seen pics with the wayback machine but not actual threads is there links to any of the original threads the baby threads so to speak.

I expect it's long gone, but it was probably a thread by a mod/admin regarding rules etc.

Not quite sure but probably a test post to test out the system. Here is the second one though:

AHHHHH I forgot about the wayback machine! The amount of info from ats from the early 2000's is astounding, I think Im gonna be here all night looking around!

From what I remember if its correct, ats had loyal members, but the high traffic didnt come until after 9/11

btw it's weird to see ats in a different format, but it's cool to see the growth and changes they have made over the years, well worth it!

she's all grew up now isnt she old ATS,
