too many ghost posters on FR

[Ikeon]

Im not enjoying the free republic lime I used to. Too many newbies that are trolls, looking for someone to drag into their abyss of self hatred. Theres been a lot of posts linked to posters with no bios, I think admin needs to limit the number of posts or remove those without any bio info.

I always put the lime in the coconut and drink them up together.

oooh! I like that. I need to get one.

I have been here 22 years. No bio either. I totally agree. I had to get a new account a few months ago because me and my brother were using the same one. He passed.

“People can always put up fake garbage about themselves so it really doesn’t mean much”

That is how I see it.

Here’s a gripe of mine, though minor: many posts include a “summary” of an article linked to, but the summary is often only the first few sentences of the article.

Maybe after you’ve been here awhile you’ll understand we don’t take kindly to people trying to boss us around.

You don’t need my steenking bio. 😆

Here is my bio: ‘‘Twas born way down on a chicken farm near Mashville Tennessee. Twern’t nobody there ‘cept a sky full of air, 20 billion chickens and me! There were chickens in the barnyard, chickens in the corn, chickens driving Cadillacs to Washington DC …all when the Chickens and I took LSD!

That’s our story and we are sticking to it (mostly and suddenly susceptible to abrupt change without notice)

Don't be Shirley Surely, you can't be serious. We ALSO want the last four of your SSA numbers AND your mothers maiden name. No halfway measures.

FR ws a much better forum in the early part of the century.

I suppose by now, after having read through all the responses...

that you regret having started this discussion. ;)

I have been annoyed a little with newbies like you myself in the past but I believe you are out of line with this.   I have seen posters from 1997 and 1998 with no bio info and others that have tweaked theirs many times over the years, finally erasing it all.   Having voluntary bio info has worked fine for over 25 years.   Think of something else.

[spankalib]

Look at my 'bio'...it's just quotes and stuff I'm interested in.

Your posts are generally very interesting (not buttering, here, just the troof!)

So, in that way I'd like to see your 'about' page. It would be interesting.

(don't need no bio stuff!)

You put the lime in the coconut, you drink ‘em bot’ together
Put the lime in the coconut and you’ll feel better
Put the lime in the coconut, drink ‘em bot’ up
Put the lime in the coconut and call me in the morning”

Ignore them. They eventually go away if they don’t get any attention.

[higgmeister]

You are an open book my dear and we love you for it.

They don’t get paid to write biographies.

Biographies can be used against them in debate.
