Hello

I just signed up here at ATS but have lurked around here for years. I like it here. The reason that I joined is because I have debated with myself on telling some of the things that have happened to me over my 40 years of life and decided that these things need to be told regardless if ppl think that I'm nuts. I'm just crazy enough to keep me from going insane but pretty much I think that I am a level-headed person with an abundance of common sense. I have no desires to lie and try and get attention. I don't need it. Really, I have better things to do but there are some smart ppl here and would like to hear your thoughts on some of the things that I am going to share. I have to wait until I have 20 posts before I can start a thread so I guess then I will share. See ya in the forums

Welcome to ATS. 20 posts are quickly reached as so much gets posted here its hard not to want to comment on something. Today appears to be earthquake frenzy day. Several threads on the recently announced Mexico quake while everyone scrambles to be first.

Enjoy your time here and I look forward to seeing you around.

AboveTopSecret is much like a theme park with many, many rides, with that said...
Here's a few thoughts before getting onto any one of the 1000's of topical rides at Above Top Secret, also known as ATS, the world's largest Civil & Unique Discussion Community.

*** Please be at least this tall to get on any of the rides, (Johnny stretches his arm outward), and act like an 'civil' adult. This will save you a lot of future stress, frustration and possible action by one of your friendly neighborhood Mods!

*** Please remember that some members are very passionate and vocal depending on what ride your on. Before getting on a ride, you should be mentally fit, emotionally stable and have a strong stomach for theories, conjecture, research and evidence presented that may be contrary to your own.

*** Please be "open-minded" enough to understand that sometimes the ride isn't always what you might think or expect. At times, you may learn something new and 'out-of-the-box' before you get off the ride, this is a natural and normal phenomena.

*** Please note that at times the ride gets overly-heated and "it's strongly suggested" to get off the ride to regroup one's thoughts before continuing. This will also help guarantee that the ride will move forward without getting derailed or explode into a fiery trashbin.

*** Please have fun! Be aware if you act in an uncivil-like manner, use profanity, intentionally spread a hoax and/or get verbally abusive, you will be removed off the ride by a Moderator. This is for your safety, & also for those both young and old on the ride with you.

So buckle up, keep your arms within the ride's comfort zone, have fun and "Deny Ignorance"...!

Hi,
Looking forward to hearing from you soon

Welcome to the lion's den... er, ATS.

Your common sense will serve you well here so long as you don't allow it to become waylaid by the political, caught up in the snare of popular opinion or lost on the island of eye dazzlers.

Best wishes, looking forward to reading you in the future

Greetings from Rige4.....................

You'll make an excellent drone ...

Thanks to everybody for the welcome. I really appreciate it.
