UFO compilation videos...

Most contain a smorgasbord of "UFO" sightings from around the world over a certain time frame (like "this past week's UFO sightings", for instance). Almost all of them are thrown together without regard for research or accuracy. Due to the lack of research or fact-checking, many of these videos will contain clips of known hoaxes, CGI, etc, either deliberately, or due to lack of research. And as most members know, ATS Staff and most of our members do not like UFO hoaxes or hoaxers. They are a thorn in the side of the UFO research community.

These videos and YouTube channels' sole purpose are about getting views and ad revenue instead of actual UFO research. They're only in it for the attention, to make a quick buck, or both.

As such, Staff have decided that going forward, any threads containing UFO compilation videos will be moved to the trash bin. ATS will not aid these YouTube channels in getting views and revenue for slapping some "UFO" compilation videos together with no attempt to research what they are depicting.


*** This rule will not apply to legitimate UFO documentaries that contain a compilation of different cases, and opposing views for research purposes.


This is just another step in taking back real UFO research, and disallowing compilation videos where hoaxes can be inserted among legitimate UFO sightings.


If you're unsure about something you want to post, feel free to get ahold of any staff member, or use the Complaint Form in the drop-down menu at the top of the page.

Thank you.
