No it's not, we dumped Michael Rivero years ago and Quix a few years ago........

I think you need to delve deep into the “Smoky Back Room” to find the kink list.

Here is the Back Story

Jim doesn't want all of Free Republic to turn into a giant Q vs. anti-Q war zone. He's told the FReeQs (their name for themselves, not a derogatory term I've made up) to keep the Q stuff on the Q threads.

When people insist on turning non-Q threads into Q threads then they get into trouble, and the threads often get torn down.

This appears to be what has happened to ParaOrd .45.

Another thing that is a not permitted is for anti-Q Freepers to argue against Q on the Q thread. The Q thread is treated like a Devotional Thread, where long time FR rules are that non-Catholics or non-Mormons are not supposed to go on the Catholic or Mormon (or whatever) devotional thread and post about how foolish the beliefs of that faith are.

If you follow those rules you will be fine.

If you go review the thread "AG Barr discloses ..." you can see that the Mods had to start pulling comments at #6 and had pulled about a dozen by the time the thread was locked.

You can also see that there was a lot of personal insulting being done.

The mods are not paid to referee giant he-said/ she-said disputes. If you are in one you might end up getting banned or suspended. Even if you didn't throw the first punch. Just like real life bar fights, it's best to just walk away most of the time.

Remember: Every time we post we are reminded:

: NO profanity, NO personal attacks, NO racism or violence in posts.

Posting insulting memes about other Freepers is clearly a personal attack, if you do it dozens of times in a single thread you might get suspended or banned.

This is some hard earned knowledge I am sharing to help others avoid pain and banishment.

At the end of the day this remains a private forum, and you don't have to like the rules, but you do have to follow them.

FReegards to all.

Free Republic Survival Guide Rules by Widget Jr:

#1: Jim Robinson's forum, Jim Robinson's rules, since 1997.
#2: Do not challenge management over the rules.
#3: Do not intentionally misinterpret, misrepresent, misunderstand or try to be "cute" with the rules.
#4: Violating the rules incurs the wrath of the Mods and brings forth the Banhammer, Viking Kitties, and agents of Mod Justice.
#5: If you don't like the thread, don't read it, post on it, or pester people over it.
#6: Think it over before you post in anger.

Q posts that are on sites other than chan sites can be discussed here. That's been the rule on FR for over a year.

Personally, I think taking Q posts seriously is silly because the people who created it already admitted it was a hoax.

I could quibble, but in general I agree so...

Q is silly IMO, but I do respect the research some of the followers do.

Preople are so suprised that there’s a “hiden government”. But that is a normal, even healthy, development- government can’t and shouldn’t make all decisions.
The nedia, as originally structured, would report on the “hidden government” but today the national media is bound by common interests into an arm of this group.
Oh for a media of diverse interests!

Anyway, I think whatever good comes from Q is due mostly to people like Jim who handle it so well.

Hoe the OP just takes a break. Jim will fix it.

Para-Ord started in Canada in the 80’s, and tried to bring double stacked mags to the old warhorse. I handled a few but always though they didn’t feel right in the hand, but it was an interesting idea.

I just read the wiki page on Para-Ord, they moved to the USA, got bought by some big private equity firm that gobbles up distressed companies, and in 2015 the Para-Ord brand was zotted.

FWIW.

I think it would be really cool if someone posted an insulting meme about me. I had to take down all my good pictures, because Photobucket, but I bet someone out there has something good.

Has anybody ever noticed you were here? Celebrating the loss of an excellent FReeper like Para-Ord is unfortunately par for the course around here anymore.

I think Jim has handled the whole Q thing perfectly.

Agreed.
