Is it just me, or is this place dead?

I remember back when this place was popping. Now there are a handful of posts per day. Additionally, other forms seem to be going down. What is this? Let's get the word out and get more intelligent people here.

The site has been neglected for years so many people left.
And blurry ufo and bigfoot photos aren't really that interesting

I think that your opening post might fall under the description of minimal.

I mostly blame DB, he's the Kevin of ATS.

I'll need to see the actual hairstyles to determine that accurately.

Russia or China turned it into psy-op propaganda machine around 2012. Sandy Hook marked a big shift on ATS. Now it's just politically driven wackjobs rallying around like minded wackjobs, all of whom seem to identify as Republicans or Patriots lol. Pretty easy fodder. The real scientific community abandoned that s place a while ago.... that's why the Mudpit is now King.

It's just a lull because of so many new Members with old knowledge 🥳🥥

And old Members not nibbling so much 🥳🥥

The most popular topics are largely Q related, if that tells you anything about what intelligent people are doing here and how this forum appeals to the internet at large. Most threads don't pass 80 flags or 250+ replies apart from that general topic in recent months. Unless something truly dramatic happens.

Make ATS great again. #MAGA

They don't post because they are not the type to enjoy a gang that regularly jumps on every conversation and puts it and usually the OP down.
Very tiring and many don't think it is worth the stress factor!

Well here is the competition, have at it tiger... but I went searching when ATS was for sale, the pickings are slim to none, especially in one that covers such broad topics no to mention ATS has a decent worldwide following...

Lol where are all those Q threads in the recent months you talk about?

Classic.

My scientist friend told me the best way to test if something is dead is to give it a little poke with a stick.

If it doesn't move, take its shoes then check for a wallet.

Not according to the stats page from today, unless "Q" threads were in Breaking Alternative News. Q threads reside in political conspiracy threads which rank 39TH of all the forums if I am reading it correctly.

As for the MUD PIT, it's lower than the Political conspiracy threads

The place has really gone downhill, especially since my arrival.

It's probably mostly my fault, for singlehandedly lowering the collective IQ of the site by 5 or 6 points.

Sorry.

We can't all be Fred Einstones ya know !!

My evaluations were based in long term topic participation and flagging numbers. And I'm too lazy to argue statistics with you for free. You can have your internet points for this round. And a cold one.

a reply to: Jeremiah33three

It's just you.

Year before COVID was nothing but Trump threads. Now it's just 90% COVID/Vaccine threads. Gets pretty boring. Lately, I've been giving any thread on UFO's, cryptozoology or paranormal a flag and star just because it's so rare and refreshing.
