I gave $300. I’m not listed.

Honestly, I hesitated with my recent contribution because it’s clear FR is struggling to reach its targeted funding. I don’t want to give money to a venture that may not survive.

I appreciate that FR has no advertising, but I’d rather see ads than see Free Republic go away.

$5 per vanity seems reasonable to me but I don’t see how to enforce it. I like the idea of having a premium member designation where those who contribute can post, but freeloaders can’t.

Moderators. Mods have the ability to review posts in advance. If they do this and confirm the poster has paid for the privilege, then great!

I see this as solving the financial needs of FR as well as cutting down on all the garbage posts here.

See? Your $300 donation is YUGE!

You deserve to be listed somehow, somewhere for all to see!

I doubt that you were personally thanked by your screen name, right?

Likely just by your state.

Yes, you’re right about the $5.00 per Vanity, which is why I used the word “ask.” We’d just have to make it known that Vanities post with understanding that $5 goes into the FR donation pot.

Thank you very, very much, be-baw for your very generous $300 donation!

No one gets listed unless donor approves...Tell JR if you want to be on a list and which list applies.
Thank you so much for your generous contribution, be-baw
