A little history of how Free Republic has evolved through the years?
Would like to know how do the mods work?
Is there a training they go through?
Besides JR is there a supervisor?
How many are their of you?
How many shifts are there?
Do you work from home?
Now that you know our secret, I'm either going to have to ban you or kill you. I'll decide tomorrow.
Look Dark one is alive and well and evens speaks!:)
Ha ha! smarty pants "HoustonCurmudgeon" and you call them Urban Legends Hehehe!
"Actually, weekends are our slow time."
shss don't let the DU know that!
Come on over an play with the mods!
So how does this work do you all work in one room or from home?
How do you communicate when you have cookoo fly over FR?
We've hacked into the system. There are no mods named Admin Moderator. It's all been a bad dream, just ask Daryl.
Nope. Too many people getting banned with no explanation.
Only Mods I know of are Eaker and Lazamataz....:o)
Isnt it true we sort of know but don't want to know?
Okers.
What if I try to placate you with coffee?
Wait.. scratch that.
My coffee is horrific.
Dark rumor from the hazy past is that there is a back forum where they discuss things.
I hear that it is behind the venetian blinds.
Works, as nobody looks behind the blinds.
Bad coffee is even worse. If I were you, I'd be very careful.
Nope. Not knowing has a chilling effect on posting. Knowing the rules, no matter how convoluted they may be, is a good thing.
I'm told that my coffee is as bad as an adrenaline rush.
I wouldn't know as I am immune to the stuff.
:(
Then, it's mostly gratuitous bumping and pinging.
You survive banning only with your good looks and charm.
Darksheare's coffe recipe, read at your own risk...
In 12 cup drip percolator pot, fill to 6 cup mark with water.
In filter, put 6 heaping scoops of coffee.
Medium roast works best, just make sure it's a robust blend.
Found a maxwellhouse 'medium roast' that was rather anemic.
Put pinch of salt in filter, about as much as it would take to cover the surface of a dime with one even layer.
This keeps the coffee from tasting burned too quickly, it doesn't age well brewed this way.
Brew, recirculate if need be, usually not.
Add sugar and dairy creamer.
Creamora and coffeemate are not recommended unless you like the heart racing that Ranger Pudding gives.
That, and the nondairy creamer will give you both a headache and a buzz with the coffee.
One thing not mentioned was that they did use non-dairy creamer.
I usually put about 8 spoons of sugar in this stuff, it ends up being like Russian Kava, thick and sweet with that bitter overtone to it.
Oh, and I am NOT responsible for seeming demonic possession of the coffeepot, or the coffeepot ending up acting as if it has been damaged.
Be sure NOT to add creamora or coffeemate to the brew, unless you LIKE ranger pudding style heart racing.
When I brew that stuff for myself, I recirculate the stuff to brew a second time, but that's me for my own personal enjoyment, and it may wreck the coffeepot.
Don't forget the salt, it's important to the finished brew.

You didn't!
You did..
*I am SO dead..*
I'm doomed.
The mods only ban trolls, Jim does the longtimers.
How can we tell?
