Im not new to ATS but i dont understand why somebody would want to make a rival of another contributer of wisdom/insite.

Why is this?

Maybe its just me that thinks its a little strange that people would want to do this sort of thing.

Would be nice if someone could explain why this option is open to members when i thought that we were ment to be working together to uncover,debunk and help one another.

Why do we have the Rival's option?

EDIT-Mods-Thankyou for moving this thread to the right area

have you read the rivals list description?

its probably the biggest compliment one can get in ats.

Lets break this down.. I am a atheist.. By choice Christians chose to "not like my posts" if i have to put it kindly.. They tend to get bent out of shape.. and throw me on there rival list.. Like i could give a damn..

My rival list is empty.. But don't think for a second that I have not made it to the top of many "other" users lists.. I speak my mind, I speak the truth, And some members with "questionable intelligence" can not accept it..

Me too. I don't why I was made a rival when I never spoke to the person, I even made the attempt to find out why. But, got a childish answer. To each their own I guess. No skin off my back unless the Aliens take it.

I am not sure of the motivations, but I know a lot of people add me as a rival!

Speak of the devil:

"This is an automated U2U to let you know that __________ has just added you to their respected foe list in their myATS Extended Profile, which is a new social networking feature of ATS. "

Another one!

its really simple a rival is not an enemy. however you do need a rival to have a debate and isn't that really what this site is about? debating theories and whacko hypothesis?

Here on ATS, it used to be that when you logged in, you would get a personalized pop window. It would tell you if your friends or rival have started new threads, so you could go and check them out. It would also tell you if your threads were active.

I kinda miss that feature. It made me feel special.

Maybe change it from "rival" to" Terrorist'
It's sort of more relevant in todays society
And you can add stars according to their threat level

Considering we are all friends here trying to find the answers to what ever we want to no.

i Still dont understand why a "rival* option would be needed.

Seems a little childish."what ever u say to me sticks 2 u like gloe" ball#
