I’m only 18. Legal in some states. I lurked for ten years. I remember I had made a copy from FR where Hilary! made her “take away things from you for the common good” speech. I found FR from Drudge. I haven’t been back in over ten years.

Thank you AW! Been here from the beginning. Had to re-register in 1998 when e-mail became a thing.
Where did that 30 years go????
Free Republic was once the only way to get real unfiltered news. A lot more options these days, but I’m still here, just not as much.

I’ve been here through most of it. It still arguably packs more information about important, interesting developments into one website than any other place.

It was right after 9-11-01 when I was an IT helper for a brokerage firm in Nashville when my boss saw how pissed off I was about it. “There’s a website full of America-loving people just like us. You should check it out”.
Since then Free Republic’s been an anchor no matter what life threw at me, the members providing hope and wisdom when needed most. Here’s to those here and those who’ve passed on. May it continue providing patriots a place to exchange views and ideas while opposing enemies foreign and domestic.

I first joined in 1998.
Really hadn’t thought about that until now...

I came aboard in '98, I think. I was Ohmage back then. Went down to the border for three weeks in 2005 and when I got back FR had no record of me. Hmmmm.
I was busy for awhile, mobile, and some time passed before I signed on again.
Some good times here. Thanks for the reminder!

I’m also one of those who came via Drudge, during Whitewater. Miss those days here!

Thanks for the ping - time flies when you’re having fun.
Still miss Jim Rob - he would love the successes his sons have brought to the site.
