New 404 page?

Oops pressed enter before typing......

So ive just seen a thread where when you click on it you get this page :




Looks a lot better than the original 404 page....i like the "thought police" bit haha,, im sure i will see many more of the new style 404 in the coming weeks

is that what you're aiming for with this?

nooooo.......i pressed enter after typing the Thread Title and it published a blank thread just with a title.

Its all sorted now though

That's very funny!
Especially with all the accusations that were flying in that other thread.......

I kinda like it.
It's much much better than the previous one.

I just hate anything bright though. Even if this new one was nothing but a solid grey screen with a tiny '404' in the middle, I would still like it better than the last. lol

I prefer it to the old one

I dont get what you mean about "the other thread"....my thread??? Or some random thread about 404??

Did you create this image? Is this a joke?

I only ask, as I just went to a non-existing URL and received the old 404 page.

Try for yourself

Nope this isnt a joke and no i did not create the image.

I clicked on a thread that had just been published and was taken to this page....

You can see it on the ATS servers yourself by going here:

www.abovetopsecret.com...

The thread was published, and withing maybe 10 seconds it was removed.....dont know if the mods removed it or there is some kind of software that ATS are now using to remove threads that are either known hoaxes or contain stuff they dont allow on the site???

Cool! I see now. Thanks for the link. It seems that rather than giving the 404 after a topic is removed, we'll now see this.

Thanks for the explanation.

And for what it's worth, I would have given you kudos if it were a "joke".

Looks like the men in black. It should say, The men in black 404'ed your page because we dont want the public to know about this topic.

No, it was a thread in Rant and some of the members were getting a bit hostile....
and making accusations that fit what the new 404 says at the bottom.

reply to post by loves a conspiricy


Haha, I love it! Way way more kewl than the other one. And the page says clearly that the T&C were violated. The other 404 looks too much like a Windows-based message.

Now the real question is, who are the enforcers in the new graphic?

reply to post by aboutface


And why is only one of them wearing a white shirt?
What? No women enforcers on ATS? (I just had to put that in, lol)
