Go to www.archive.org.... This is basically an archive of the internet since 1995. Pretty amazing huh? It should serve as an invaluable resource for the serious researcher.

I searched for ATS on there, and it archived it!

And remember the old board?

This brings back old memories....

internet must be shut down for 24 hours in order to enable us to clean it.

That's awesome. I remember coming to this site before there was the discussion forum, and being signed up for the abovetopsecret.com mailing list. That website shows how this website has grown since then.

I think it archives pages down to a certain depth and it might exclude things like message boards and blogs because they take up so much space. Considering that ATS takes up half the internet...

I miss those times.

*tear*

Anyone have links to the older boards?

Yep, I was there...And that particular version of ATS was the *second* discussion board. I'll see if I can come up with some of the older URL's but it's going to take quite a bit of searching around in my hard drive...

I think I found a pic of william on there, but think it's best to keep my yap shut about it.
It is interesting to see how the site has matured.

Ah, there it is!!!

Thanks, I've been wanting to find that board for a long time.

I'm glad we use XMB forums now. The coding on EZBoard is really bad. I mean, just look how the posts are structured! You have to click on the links to read them, compared to here where you can have them all on one page.

It seems to have been active recently. Midnight Mutilator posted something in September.
