Gotta Say Goodbye FReepers
5/10/05 | the usual suspect

Posted on 05/10/2005 5:05:33 PM PDT by Diogenesis

First vanity post:

The Administrator of FR has made it clear that my posts are no
longer wanted here. They have been erased for reasons unclear
with the Administrator being incredibly disingenuous about "spamming".
I posted a picture twice and IMHO that is not spamming.
It is not worth wasting further effort here, in that light.

In any case, I wish the best to FReepers and want to thank you all
for teaching us so much. I am especially grateful to Jim Robinson
for the wonderful opportunity to have posted so many hundreds of pictures
glorifying the good deeds of America and its generous, brave, just and caring people;
pictures that would have otherwise been ignored by the MSM.

Take care, FReepers, and stay safe.

Time to 'roll' on.

There are lots of us in here that have been several different handles over the years. Dio hasn't - he's stayed within the rules, provided to the forum instead of just being a taker, and honestly done his best to help the cause in any way he can.

All it takes is to get on the wrong side of one mod, and all that counts for nothing.

Been there, done that.

I for one, fully understand Dio's decision. He's an actual "news person" who has been at or near the top of the game FOR REAL - NOT JUST IN HERE - since Watergate. Think aout that, people. He's been part of the MSM - and no doubt one of the very few HONEST parts of the MSM - for over 30 fricking years. He's not some BS local news person, he's upper echelon. He's corporate. And he's been here on our side in our battle for years against the hypocrisy of the MSM.

When you consider that, his skin is probably rightfully thin when it comes to hypocrisy here at FR. Personally, Dio, I salute you whole-heartedly. We need you in our cause, I'll not say that FR deserves you.

Now that I've fragged myself, if none of you see my handle again, you know why.

a look at your posts, and virtually everyone has huge pictures. I could see how it's annoying to see the same pictures over and over again. Just relax on those, that's all. No need to be too sensitive or take it personally

Isn't there a way for you to just post a link to them instead of putting them in each thread?

The MOD's are not consistent so I am not surprised. They must rotate the duties.

Maybe one of the FR Elites will fill us in. Oh and btw, Im listening to 'China Cat Sunflower' at the moment

Hopefully by the time that transitions to 'Rider' someone may shed more light about the reasons.

There has to be a reason Why?

Why?

Because Diogenesis chose to.

What will we do without the GOTTA SEE THIS! threads?

I never open a single one of them

These opus things are sick - cyber-masturbation.

Come on, Dio, you have to stay. Annie's post alone should be enough to make you say. LOL

Maybe the mods need to tell the tattle-tales to grow up.

Amen!

I've had the dogs sic'd on me before, but fortunately haven't been "slapped". But I've never pinged a mod or hit abuse. I can take it. Too bad some hear can't.

Dio, we need your participation.

I've been banned, I've been warned, I've been fussed at.

I've gotten pissy and cancelled my monthly.

I got over it all.

You do push the envelope (does anyone ever pull the envelope?)

Relax and say three times "It's only an Internet forum. . ."

I was on the phone with one of my daughters and had to come back to say NOOOOOO. I would not have missed your posts during the worst of things. You are a special friend. I am so confused about this. Well, you will be a treasured friend to me forever.

Only sort of. It's 96 hour mandatory shifts until the new zotmaster takes over.

I tend to get away with murder on Thursday morning. Not sure why...

And your going away party next week was supposed to be a surprise. Now someone has ruined it.

Let's party anyway! I'll bring chocolate and pretend to leave.
