[Hebrews 11:6]

Recently, a FReeper put forward the notion of a "probationary period" before being allowed to post.

Uh, that would be me: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1662832/posts?page=20#20

I think anybody who signed up before about 1999 should be free to post.

Your thoughts?

Waiting for me to stick my foot in my mouth? ;-)

While I quite agree that FR should maintain its status as a family friendly site and that anyone who discusses or posts pornography should be zotted, it should be remembered that there are two somewhat contradictory forces at work here.

On the one hand, is the force of exclusion and inclusion: the site is a conservative and should remain so.

On the other hand, Jim makes money off the site and the site gains notariety and press based on the number of users and visitors.
