Hello from the UK :)

Hello ATS! I can't believe it's been over three years lurking for me and now i have finally taken the first step in being a fully paid up (Kind of!) member of the ATS community. I can now consider myself walking the same tread boards as the legends themselves... The mighty Phage, Kandinsky, Easy Now, Issac Koi et al!

It is a genuine privilege to be here at last and i fully intend to contribute to this community as purposefully as i can.
Be gentle with me if you see me around

I have had life long passion in all things strange and unexplained, but i am especially interested in UFOs, paranormal events, conspiracy theories, time travel etc. I also have an absolute passion for Jack The Ripper and have read dozens of books about the case, and certainly look forward to sharing views with you all about anything that you find interesting!

Whenever i want to look something up or do some research on a topic, i ALWAYS search ATS first for views from both believers and the sceptics. The information here is a credit to ALL members and i am always preaching to friends and family about this place! I love it!!

Anyway thats enough from me for the time being. I'm very glad to be among some of the most intelligent and experienced investigators and authorities on unexplained matters. Look forward to speaking to some of you very soon..

Many thanks Biigs! I am certainly quite surprised at the quantity of UK residents on this site! I had an impression it was mostly US citizens, but i guess that was me being naive! Nice to hear from you and hopefully i'll see 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 you're 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, troll, 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"...!

Welcome, always good to have another UK member to join the ranks.

Have fun

Welcome from me too GNeeds, from the other side of the Irish sea. I am a newcomer too, and so far am 100% glad I took the plunge to partake.
It's a bit nervy at first in my opinion, you think you know a bit about a few things, but some of these guys blow your mind!
It's a pleasure to be in their company. Once again, welcome
