So what exactly does this mean? If you don't contribute to Fred Thompson and or support another candidate for whatever reason you're going to be banned?

If that's the case, then to the many with whom I have interacted over the years, it has been a pleasure to have known you.

I sincerely hope that this is not the case and that the Admin Mod/ Jim Robinson will look into Im4Fred

It was a spam message, and a very wide spread one.

Not sure how it happened.

“If you don’t contribute to Fred Thompson and or support another candidate for whatever reason you’re going to be banned?”

Through what twisted interpretation or logic is this what you understand from what happened? This clown sent these out and he was banned-and rightly so, we don’t do that here.

I received a solicitation, as well.

Is it not against FreeRepublic policy to solicit political contributions on the website?

I got the note also. It seems to be a sarcastic missive in protest of the banning of Pissant. I obviously spend too little time around here to have the insider knowledge of the machinations.

Do we know why Pissant was suspended? I’ve always had a high opinion of him.

Oh Please!



don’t be so melodramatic!

Just like a lot of posters on this site, somebody is trying to form opinions by spreading garbage.

Just ignore them, just like you do the posters who engage in the worst of propaganda and misinformation.

I got the mail, too. Not sure about what it is. Looks like Im4Fred has been banned.

He's already has been banned. Don't worry about it, Jim Rob and the Mods were on it.

Do yourself a favor and just delete it.

The poster was banned, came back under a new name and was banned again.

I got one of those too. Is it only being sent to people on the Fred ping, or people known to support him?

I didn't like the subject: "Final Warning", let alone the body of the text, and figured it didn't come from any of Fred's people.

So pissant's been banned huh?

Hmmmm

People must be scared of Fred to go to these lengths.

“If that’s the case, then to the many with whom I have interacted over the years, it has been a pleasure to have known you.”

And that was the whole point of the troll’s freepmail. It also wanted to make sure everyone knew pissant was banned. You and me and everyone else got that same message.

I was kind of bummed to see that pissant got banned too but apparently he was posting a lot of annoying anti-Fred threads. He was warned and didn’t take Jim’s advice.

If you click on the “contribute” link, you will find this is a hoax.
It links to a non-secure site asking for your credit card info.
