Shut off the front end public access and that issue all goes away. I believe this place has gotten slower and participation and donations have dropped because folks are just afraid to speak freely to the general public. And they actually have a very legitimate reason to be concerned. Free speech is not free anymore, It can and will be held against you in a court of law someday. Or retroactively towards our future social credit score.

Have you suggested this to the Mods? It might be a good idea
I know donations have slowed I’ve chipped-in twice so far this month and that is rare but I wanted to answer the call
Well maybe, but I really feel that because 98% of Reply posts are ignorant reaction babbling screaming at the wall replies that people get tired of this place. And the arguing and personal attacks don't help much - some folks around here use FR as their own personal whoopie cushion and get off on inciting angry reaction.
But for me I do know there many very intelligent, educated, and experienced people here, and if I sift through the babble I get good information, history, and knowledge.
