Are PTS points going to be put back into the ATS point total?
Not that I'm a point whore or anything .. I'm just curious.

This is really no surprise. I've mentioned several times to moderators who move my threads that PTS is a dead zone, and essentially a death sentence for threads.
Its sad because there's a lot of great information and discussion in PTS, its just a lot slower on average than the typical ATS discussion.
I was disappointed when the campaign fell through, but that is that.
I think this is going to be a great move regardless.

Well, one major thing that everyone should be aware of is that the political threads and topics are going to get significantly more attention with this move because of the sheer number of members and guests who predominantly stay on the mother ship page of ATS.

Re-integration of the two boards does NOT mean open season for the purveyors of the immature and artificial left/right; red/blue; conservative/liberal divide that seems to infect everything to do with US politics.

People who can't separate their politics from their opinions on other matters will likely have themselves a hard time on ATS, so take this as a fair warning.

I see no reason why the quality of purely political discussion will improve with integration.

I can appreciate everyone's concern. Change can be scary, especially when it impacts you directly. We ARE doing something special here. It's never easy to have high-grade political discussions, even though they may sound easy on your ipod. The same thing is true when you reach for that keyboard.
As we strive to reach the next level of discourse, we have to do "next level" things like...changing formats.
