95% of ATS is garbage

I was going to waste time writing why I think that way, but there's really no need. Let me just say I am here for the 5% that is not worthless. Stars if you agree, and if you disagree, don't answer as that would dangerously bring the number closer to 96%.

don't answer as that would dangerously bring the number closer to 96%.

Lol....

In the last month or so, I wholeheartedly agree...

Do you feel better after that epic rant?

So what would you have ATS do to make it less garbage for you ?

I do see how ever a lot of garbage rants ....

I do too. The conspiracy world still has much to offer.

Aside from that divide and conquer, bread and circuses, bread and butter? Don't know but I've been reading the site for 14 years and only joined recently. There's still a lot of relevant info posted each day, I guess it depends on how you look at what's presented.

Yeah there is still a lot to absorb...

Personally I'm a little bored or Ferguson, Police & Ebola...

I'm waiting for a police officer to catch Ebola in Ferguson to really put the nail in that coffin.

And this just contributed to the 95% congratulations!

We're so sorry to have disappointed you.

Just curious............. into which percentile would you place this thread?

a reply to: argentus

Necessary garbage.

Anyway, my advice is if anyone thinks the site stinks or isn't up to par anymore then post info you feel is relevant. There will always be threads on the hot topics of the time.

That's actually quite a compliment for ATS if I think about it. This is a conspiracy board first and foremost and if 5% of the theories have merit, that is a pretty huge thing when it comes to conspiracy theories.

So, you're begging for stars?

That would be the 95%.

AND..."If we Disagree, Don't answer?"

Remember Bush?..."If you're not with us, you're against us."

Nice.

Rants typically garner more stars than Ebola threads.

I beat you to this subject a while back. I only said half of it was crap. The other half is well worth investigating though.

And of course, if there was no crap here, it would be boring.

I think one of the issues some veterans around here suffer from is over time you have seen it all....every conspiracy, every theory, everything. The only thing you are missing is breaking news which most people just pull from mainstream media and repost it here.

I often see videos on things posted that I saw posted over 10 years ago....or some photo that seems to get its own thread over and over every year or 2.

A lot of it seems like garbage to us because there just isn't much new anymore.

My best advice...and this goes for myself to....is to really really try to put together a good thread...something interesting and unique...we could use the creativity.

yup, make your own interesting thread for us.

I really like this website. It reminds me of my high school days when my family would let me order books from Scholastic Book Publications and read titles like "Strange Energies and Hidden Powers".

In looking over the threads you have created as well as your 'contributions' to ATS since you have "officially" been here, I would posit that you fit neatly within your own definition of garbage. You are not particularly insightful nor do your posts represent significant contributions to whatever topic you bless with the few posts you have done. I would rate the sum total of your contributions to ATS as "Meh?" at best. Compare your own posts to people here who actually make an effort: Slayer is one, Isaac Koi another. These people put effort into their contributions and it shows.

Yours, on the other hand, are forgettable. Being cynical and sarcastic is really very easy, as you have amply demonstrated. I humbly suggest you seek another venue where you may be more appreciated and where you might be inspired to do better work. That 95% of ATS is "garbage" is, I fear, actually true. However, you seem completely ignorant of the fact that your posts fall right into the pail with the other rubbish.

And that is actually kind of funny. "Pot, meet Kettle!" You have given us a perfect example.

Thank you.

lmao, do you have a pie chart?

So 95% of ATS is in this thread? Methinks you need to recalculate your maths...
