I guess everyone's glad to be here, including me!
Now, while I wasn't an ATGS member, I've had a chance to browse the archives, and I gotta say, I was pretty unhappy about what was there!
And Casey, it took me at least a year to figure it out.

I learned something about ATGS that I never learned about before: It's an unmoderated newsgroup, which explains all the trolls and swearing and stuff of that mature nature.
Speaking of mature, those trolls aren't mature. Here, we're mature. ATGS was an un-mature group. This is more mature, and that's a reason why I am so glad to be here, 10 years after ATGS's debut.
You guys glad to be here and away from ATGS after 10 years of immaturity? [/quote]
Am I ever! I've never posted one message in alt.tv.game-shows, and now, judging from the current state it's in, I don't plan to!
People like them thar trolls to give game show fans a bad name...and ruin the spirit of GS discusion. >:(
MarkBarrett:
The ATGS was and still is a place to find out which celebrities recently died. Sure the garbage posts far outweighed the legitimate ones, but good game show discussions were still around. Some new people interested in game shows find the ATGS first, so it's nice to have a better place to send those fans.

Keep in mind, Mark, that the way to use ATGS to find out what famous people recently died is to look for the posts from the trolls du jour over there that say "What game shows will (insert name of person)'s corpse host?". There is virtually nothing to post about there, and hardly any non-troll audience at ATGS anymore, and it's been that way for a year as of this week.
