Do you think passing an aptitude test should be required for ATS
membership?

Most people here including the mods should have to pass a field sobriety test.

Thank you mamabeth.

I've disregarded a few of these points just today. (and paid for it)

You are an eloquent and insightful addition to the fray. Thanks for sharing your observations.

I can't speak for the membership but many of the staff, myself included, wouldn't pass that test.

No aptitude test is needed. The only thing that one should do is read the T&C. Why? Because ATS is different than most internet sites. Courtesy is Mandatory.

Many come here unaware of this. Happens all the time. I don't know how many warns I racked up when I first got here. It can be a learning curve. There was a poster about a year ago and he came in the same way I did and once he got the "ATS way" he became an EXCELLENT member.

Nope. Even ideas that the majority of us may think originate on the outer fringes of sanity can, on the odd day, lead to new enlightenment...

The question I asked wasn't really a serious question.I knew the
answer would be no! I was just curious what others thought about
the question.
My favorite answer was the one about the sobriety test.This was the
type of answers I really expected.

You are right about the constant attacks on members with religious beliefs.
The problem is that everybody, who believes in God, is judged the same as somebody else doing bad things in God's name. That would be the approach taken by some of our less tolerant ATS members.

my faith.

Really like you'r post mamabeth.

Of coarse I don't believe there should be an entry exam. I believe all have something to bring to the table.

I will leave it at that as you'r OP said it all and will just take this time to say welcome and hope you enjoy the rest of you'r time here on ATS..

peace to you
