THANK GOD ... FR IS BACK!! (Vanity)

[Centurion2000]

Nothing here. Thank God FR is back. Anyone feel this way? Do we have any idea what caused it???

[AxelPaulsenJr]

I think it has something to do with the self appointed FR double post police.

[Jim Robinson]

Ok, John just called and he also doesn’t know yet what caused the crash. He suspects we may have some flaky hardware. Will probably have to replace something but we don’t know what yet. We’ll also be looking to set up a redundant site somewhere, possibly offshore.

[AxelPaulsenJr]

With Obammy coming in, a redundant site offshore might be a wise move. Thanks for the info.

Hey Jim,

Are you referring to the altFreeRepublic site, or the one I just opened on the Delphi network?

[RaiderRose]

That’s about right...it was...weird. I was too afraid of being called out as a troll to post anything. Maybe in a few months. But I won’t be going in there much. Very depressing.

Who caused it? My vote is the commies ; )

[Big Horn]

I don’t think I will be able to handle it when BO shuts FR down.

[Jim Robinson]

Any alternate site other than the official yahoo groups freerepublic2 site, which I set up. Freepers who sigh-up at unofficial alternate sites could be giving their email addresses and passwords away.

"And a hell of lot of people on this forum that love it dearly would like to know what happened. And this vanity is one way to possibly find out."

A freepmail to John Robinson is an extremely efficient way to find out and doesn't clog up latest posts page. Just a thought ...

[Windflier]

That’s about right...it was...weird.

Back in my prolific posting days on the Delphi network, I used to visit the liberal forums from time to time, in hopes that I could have a civil conversation outside of the "echo chamber" of my usual conservative forums.

As soon as I opened my yap, I was jumped by hordes of foul-mouthed cretins. No matter how much fact, reason, and logic I applied, the attacks continued.

It didn't take long before I was cured of my desire to enlighten lower forms of life.

I can tell you from being a longtime member of Delphi that their network is completely secure. Delphi's about as safe as it gets on the internet.

Thank-you Jim and John for all that yous do!

Was this another dos attack?

[Biggirl]

I am just happy that FR is up and running again. Is taking a brake from posting the Sean Hannity Show Thread. This is becoming a weekly problem.

[editor-surveyor]

"Someone other than FR is running the site and is in control of the info."

Possibly one of the ardent "Anti-Freepers." (they are quite devious)

[editor-surveyor]

" I no longer wonder what that red button will do."

You'll be as good as new after reconstructive surgery (well, as good as can be expected...)

[Biggirl]

Jim and John may have to get another server and improve on the security because this is getting to be too much every week.

[editor-surveyor]

All those replies, and nobody bothered to ping Jim !!!!

[trisham]

He’s here. :)

[Biggirl]

I do hope we did not have another DOS attack to this site. Did you fine out what happened?

[editor-surveyor]

"It didn't take long before I was cured of my desire to enlighten lower forms of life."

Yep! Like trying to evangelize Satan.
