Also, speaking of forums, FR needs a serious functional upgrade to include such standard features as post formatting, editing, object insertion, emoticons, etc. These are basic capabilities that are extremely easy to implement.

Don't listen to this. Keep it simple, a lot of freepers are still on dial up. HTML rules. KISS-Keep it simple stupid. Open source rules.

As far as donations, a lot of people are to paranoid to donate. I would suggest a way of donating without revealing your identity, untraceable. The way I do it is with unsigned money orders. Call me paranoid.

I remember once I stuffed 5 dollar bills into an envelope with a strip of aluminum foil and a note to Jim.

I got a postcard back, (which is kind of wasteful I suppose)

A buck a month or $12 a year for the ability to post threads and use FReepmail would be a good start.

And some of us regularly post from mobile devices. FR works amazingly well in the default browser on VZW Android, and also quite well in Opera Mobile.

Don't "F" it up with candy-coated dreck.

Anyone can walk into a post office and buy a postal money order with cash.

There's no paper trail although the postal money order will trace back to the PO at which it was purchased.

So go to a big one, buy it there, and mail it out from there with FR as the return address, just like a self-addressed stamped return envelope.
