The Notorious Member #752(?) Returns! HELLO!

Wow, I haven't been here since the early 2000s, when I was frequently banned and would sneak on with IP routers haha. Good to see Simon Gray still around, and Kano (boy you drove me nuts!) and others.

I don't remember my exact member number, something like 700s, I joined in 2002 I remember that.

I was the infamous FreeMason. (If anyone remembers me at all *frown*)

Apparently they deleted all banned members from the list

Since then I've grown-up, became a Firefighter, and a Christian and dunno if I'll be around here much, but I wanted to say hi, for some reason this forum popped into my memory today, and I have fond memories of it.

Glad to see it doing so well, and proud to be a member under 1,000 of a group of over a quarter million. Pretty impressive work some of you guys did running this show. And the site is pretty innovative how it's built, definitely unique and interactive.

I still like to talk politics once in a while, so maybe I'll share some ideas from time to time.

Gosh I'm trying to recall the break-off forum some kid was trying to make way back then, TSK or something...lol, TheShadowKnows? Who knows.

Well been a long time...take care fellows!

Welcome back.

You'll actually find a few people still around from back then.

A few of the staff are still here as well. Alien, Djarums, Byrd and a couple of others.

*Yawn* I need to start waking up earlier...life sucks when you sleep in too much.

Here's a blast from your past:
America's 2 party system. Institutionalized or socialized? And how the Civil War is still fought


I unbanned your account. The old profile is here: FreeMason

No freakin way....too cool! And still the same Avatar I see!

Dude! Legendary!

I've learned so much about the Civil War from the book "Southern Capitalists" since them, I highly recommend, super good read.

In fact I also came across how the South intended to corner the oil market with "Cottonseed Oil" and invented the second generation cotton gin the "Cotton huller" in 1857.

Proof that the innovations of the Slave industry weren't happenstance but were purposeful to continue the institution of Slavery...yatta yatta.

365th member in "good standing", pretty epic for such a successful forum haha.

This is what the ATS home page looked like on the day you posted your last thread in 2004...

I have no clue how stars work, can someone explain it to me?

Awesome view on the screen shot...is it just me or does SO's avatar make anyone else feel like he's their superdad?
