ATS member recognition


You know, the idea is not without merit or precedent. Hollywood has a walk of fame, so does Broadway.

But here with what is arguably the single most pointed and pissiviteous bunch on the planet, there would almost have to be some political and ideological divisions created by honoring one person but not the next.

The power of the majority to rule on their majority alone is exactly what is so at question at ATS... or otherwise, there would be no ATS.

In a nutshell, we follow paths here that are outside the mainstream, or majority. So... why should we then fall back upon this system to choose but a few more worthy than any others?

Your idea has merit and I am not criticizing the concept... but I do think it impracticable in this space.

Cheers

I'm not trying to pick any more worthy over any other, there are multiple topics on here, some of which I stay away from, hence there would be posters on said topic that I may not even have come across.

This is strictly a thank you to the ones who personally make ATS enjoyable for you. Which is why I listed people who disagree with me or that I disagree with also. You can't have a debate without a rebuttal.

Thanks for the input, I hope the ones listed do see this and on a personal note, I do enjoy a lot of your content, we don't always have the same opinion but seems we post in a lot of the same threads, keep it up bud!

thanks you too!

I see your posts, sometimes don't know how to respond, but you seem to not post without thinking.

Mainly, that's who I enjoy reading here, those who think before they post, and whether or not i agree, it's usually a good post.

Badgerprints. I love his no-nonsense to-the-point posts that are riddled with common sense. Something you don't see too much nowadays.

Octotom. Every time I come across a religious thread, I see Octotom beat me to exactly what I had wanted to say.

Kinglizard. He doesn't post much these days but when I come across his avatar, I have to stop and read what he has to say.

Skyfloating. I love reading his well researched psychology and ancient civilization threads. I don't always have something to say in reply but I do read them all.

Fraterormus. I don't often agree with his stance on things but I love reading the unique and well thought out perspective he brings to a variety of threads on many different subjects.

Argentus. No matter how heated the thread or sensitive the subject, he always keeps his cool and leaves a well thought-out response that is a pleasure to read.

Bigwhammy. Another one who doesn't come around much anymore but I know him very well and he is a truly brilliant person. I never read a post of his where I didn't learn something.

There are many, many more but I just love reading the above member's posts in particular.

I wish I had the pleasure of being on this site before John Lear left.....I share a lot of the same views. I hear he made quite an impression, and stirred things up in here every chance he could...

It must be like a dagger to the heart to lose such a great controversial member..

Oh gawd.....Thanks man, now I feel bad for all those chemtrail jokes, was that your plan? LOL....

No really, thanks, and I should have included you, BUT I was pretty wasted (off alcohol) when I posted, but yea, ofc Oz is included...


EDIT: And if we are just talking members, not just thread starters..

zazzafrazz, ArMaP, greeneyedleo, Phage, Oz, Chadwickus, easynow, TheMythLives, etc, etc....I know I forgot a lot...
