Improper Use of the Breaking News Tab
Me ^ | 12/31/2004 | by Lazamataz

Posted on 12/31/2004 6:23:50 AM PST by Lazamataz

I've noticed a lot of improper use of the Breaking News tab.

There have been a lot of Freepers posting threads celebrating their 3 year, 5 month, 2 day, 7 hour, 19 minute and 27 second anniverseries. YET NONE OF THEM ARE IN BREAKING NEWS!

Listen: The Breaking News tab is for every miscellaneous and random thought you might have, ESPECIALLY announcements of anniverseries. If we don't put these important announcements in one place, where we can find them, how can we have complete knowledge of current events?

PLEASE PEOPLE: USE THE BREAKING NEWS TAB PROPERLY. Post well, and post often.


TOPICS: Cheese, Moose, Sister; Dimensional Doorway; Free Republic Policy/Q&A; Gardening; Test Topic, Ignore It; UFO's

Actually, this belongs in Broken News. It's often referred to as 'Broken Noose' (which is often referred to by it's imperfect tense-- 'Broken Nose')....

A paltry 6. Four credit points for actually being a stealth "FreeRepublic Vanity Curmudgeon Rating System" post. Not particularly well disguised, mind you, but also not a particularly subtle poster.

Is there some way we could ping all members numbered 100,000 and higher in one ping?
