"sites like ATS were invented to keep people busy, who aren't so easily distracted by Farmville"
or something like that
Instead of "Farmville", you could have a game where there were all sorts of conspiracies going on - a military base you could break into if you knew how, UFOs landing and abducting people here and there, government plots, people inventing free energy in their basements, reptilians, you name it.

Real data isn't flashly and Dan Brown enough for the average conspiracy fan.
The site doesn't need any help from the FBI or CIA. Conspiracy fans are doing enough damage on their own.

That would be awsome!! And the game could have constant updates and new maps for every new conspiracy!! The winner would get a trip for two to guantanamo!

I believe most of the members here that others are quick to label "Disinfo agents" are actually young adults(punks ) that just want to get a rise out of the other members. Its easy to act like a complete jack a$$ when your behind a computor screen. Its that immature additude of nanny nanny boo boo you cant get me! hahaha.
I believe that alphebet agencies watch ATS but I seriously doubt they pay people to derail threads. just my 2 cents.
~much love~

Well said Pimander. There are people on both sides of the fence on this issue. My own stance is why wouldn't "they" pay attention to a forum like ATS? Considering it is one of the largest conspiracy sites in the world. We are ripe for cointelpro tactics without a doubt.

ATS could possibly be COINTELPRO. I know i will be blasted for speculating this but it is only speculation and conjecture.

Thinking about this sort of thing, I think the absolute BEST reaction from the US intelligence community I've ever seen to a civilian was that Kiwi guy that had the "designing and building a home-brew cruise missile" web site. I really liked that site, it was freaking awesome. I'm not sure if it's still up, probably not. I think he got a personal phone call from Tom Ridge or Rumsfeld telling him to take it down at one point, it was someone high up.edit on 28-6-2011 by Bedlam because: (no reason given)

I would say "they" pay attention to this site is because "they" want to know what we think, and what we know about things. I have an old friend who was an agent for one of the spaghetti agencies, and he told me there are teams that read all of the conspiracy websites.
