What year was ATS created?

What year was ATS created?

Sorry I'm, sure it's somewhere near-by, but I need it for a little thing I'm doing...

Thanks

not sure but

1997 for original site

2002 for modern site as you see it

a member whose been here ages would know more accurately

Apparently this is the first election that they've covered. So I would say, at least the message boards have been around after the 2000 elections.

But I just did a whois on www.abovetopsecret.com and it says:
May 18 1997

There's a blog made by William One Sac which describes the history of ATS fairly well... There should be another ATS History thread somewhere else.

Its coming soon enough

www.abovetopsecret.com..." target="_blank" class="postlink">This is the earliest archive of ATS, from December 05, 1998 but it was just blank then.

www.abovetopsecret.com..." target="_blank" class="postlink">This is the first page taht actually had anything on it.

www.abovetopsecret.com..." target="_blank" class="postlink">Here are all the archives since then.
