How I was treated

[scorned]

I have been a registered Freeper since November 1997. I posted rarely but read daily. I was proud to be in the company of thinkers and conservatives. Last week I read an article by Ann Coulter defending Rush. I liked it. I emailed it to all the liberals that I know. They have been on me since this ESPN and drug thing hit. One of the people I emailed it to came back with a rant on George Bush and conspiracy this and conspiracy that. It was really off the deep end. However the man that sent it is well educated and otherwise a good guy. I am (as you can see) not a wordsmith by any stretch of the imagination. In the past when I needed some good comebacks I would post the rants on freerepulic and would almost always get some good replies. I did this last week in the morning with a short note of who it was from and asking for help in rebutting it. I got nothing to speak of. So not wanting to waste another post I just copied and pasted the post on a few other threads. Still no reply. Then I thought the real thinkers must be at work. That evening I reposted the email with the same paragraph letting everyone know it was not from me and I was needing some help. The next morning I went to look and found that I have been banned from FREE republic. All privileges have been cut off. No explanation of what I did wrong so I could apologize. I emailed Jim Rob and the webmaster and got no reply. I now feel like a Liberal troublemaker. I had to re register to even post this. Carjic was my old username. Just in case this was a mistake please email me at carjic@swbell.net. If not then at least have the courtesy to tell me why I am banned. Sincerely Bruce D Smith

Merely replying to this thread is grounds for banishment.

The formu is so dead on weekends that you could post naked photos of hillary, donna shalala, and a baby octopus together in a play-pool full of mayonnaise and kaopectate and not get any responses.

Well, duh. It'd have to be something unusual...

"While this thread has some attention, how about posting what you posted before to see if you can get the help you were seeking."

Uh... He forgot the question.

[LibWhacker]

Lol, I cheated. :-)

[Darksheare]

Oh no!

[GovernmentShrinker]

Sometimes the management gest a little overwhelmed with swatting trolls and accidentally swats something else. Try freepmailing Admin Moderator and JimRob and asking nicely for an explanation (so that if you did anything wrong, you can promise not to do it again) and reinstatement.

Experienced something like it when my connection died on me.

There's no accounting for what will get replies.

A while back, I posted an excellent article by a military chaplain. It got three responses. I expected more.

But last year, I posted this moronic letter someone wrote to a small college newspaper. I didn't expect much interest. Maybe a few people would read it and chuckle. To my surprise, it got about seventy responses. You just never know.
