Are you saying all vanities are okay now?
Do keep “vanity” posts to a minimum - Free Republic is primarily a place to discuss news, articles, and editorials. Vanity posts, creations of the poster him or herself, should meet a high standard of quality before one is even considered worthy of posting. Often a relevant current thread or general announcement, catch-all thread is a much better choice for a brief question or comment.

I’m going to make a wild-eyed assumption that the mods know their job else they would not be entrusted to do it.
Who are you to question their decision?
Donna, please stop. You are an educated woman, and you know that the words “minimum” and “primarily” do allow for the occassional vanity. Freekitty has an issue that other freepers may be able to help her with, or, at the very least, they are informed of another scam artist trying to separate people and their hard-earned money.
I don’t quite understand your laser-like focus on this particular thread, because I read lots of vanities and don’t remember your objections posted on those threads. Why this one?
Relevant to yourself:
“Don’t be a whiner - If you really, really find Free Republic not to your liking, let the webmaster know directly (webmaster@freerepublic.com), learn to live with it, or move along.”
