Where was the article from? Maybe it was from a URL that was not allowed.

Not exactly a high traffic time for FR.

I, for one, am not happy to see you go. There seem to be fewer and fewer readily-recognized handles left these days.

This is all news to me. Anyone know anything?

From silviacattori.net.

If that is a URL that is not allowed, that is understandable. It is not a conservative web site by any stretch. Indeed, my post itself was one I realized might not be acceptable at FR, and I warned in the body of my post that readers should be skeptical.

I do not have any particular beef with the removal itself.

The complete lack of feedback as to the removal of the post, after it had been successfully posted is not something I condone. I believe my post was actually replied to once, as I saw my New posts to you indicator light up a few minutes after posting, but then that new post, and my post, were gone.

If it was a "bad" URL, FR should say so.

I saw it. The reason given for it being pulled was (IIRC), "pure garbage". And it was. It was 9/11 troofer crap in the extreme.

Thanks. I'll miss FreeRepublic as well.

Hmmm ... guess I'd better remove my FreeRepublic.com bumper sticker as well. Yes, I have one.

Before saying "Good-bye", I'd sleep on it.

Your posting problems are probably just a bug.

I will not dispute the reason. I disagree, but it is ok by me that FR has different views on this matter.

But you shoulda told me. You can be blunt, you can do so after the fact, without further discussion or recourse. Just a private message saying "pulled - garbage" would have been sufficient.

I am not a mod. I happened to click on it and it was already pulled with the reason stated. I was curious so I googled the title. You have been here long enough that you should know that that kind of crap is not allowed.

"Where was the article from? Maybe it was from a URL that was not allowed."

If that were the case, a message would have appeared just after he hit the "post" button, saying that this website does not permit it's contents to be disseminated on FR or any place without previous permission from them. At other times, FR will refuse to post articles from certain websites they deem unreliable.

You’ve not had any threads pulled this eve that I can find.

Please advise as to what the thread title was, then I will find any record of it being pulled, who pulled it and why.

Ah - ok - that makes sense.

I got crosswise with FR for two reasons on this matter. I was already annoyed at the triple silent removal of that earlier bank rating post a few months ago.

And my views on 9/11 have diverged from FR. Which may be another good reason why it is time the FR and I went our separate ways. That I no longer instinctively found the article to be garbage is a good clue that I have diverged from the direction of this forum.

Can you give the URL to the article that was not permitted to be posted on FR?

Sleep on it. Come back fighting liberals after you’ve gotten some rest.
