Its funny how ATS manages to segregate the new users to ATS and the veterans. I find it a bit perturbing. I mean, what if i have a really interesting post that i want to put out in the Education and Media forum? I cant because I'm new? Hmph.

Moving on...

I do like the atmosphere around ATS and that is one of the main reasons as to why i signed up. Although, i do hope that these 20 posts will go by fast so i can get to the real stuff on this site.

Welcome to ATS, Debsturrs.

Me and you both, but oh well. Welcome.

The 20 post minimum required to start a new thread is merely intended as a means to curb the "efforts" of those wishing to spam the boards, hawk their wares, or use ATS as their personal playground.

It's Not intended as a means by which to stifle Anyone's thoughts, opinions or desire to participate/ express the same.

Perhaps, hop on over to our sister site (belowtopsecret.com) where you can "get your 20" in no time flat via Chit Chat or personal banter on the General topics that may interest you.



If ever a question or concern Please don't hesitate to ask.

Hello and welcome! Yes, you'll get 20 posts in no time. I look forward to your contributions.

Welcome. It really won't take long at all. we'll all be looking forward to the thread here in about thirty minutes.

i didn't even realize there was a minimum posting required im sure its just protection against morons that sign up to put in one stupid post with plans to never post on that login again.

Welcome. I think you are off to a smashing start. As they say, you never get a second chance to make a first impression.

I dig that you already question things. Especially when you consider things are not always what they seem and everybody seems normal until you get to knnow them.

Welcome. Raise some!
