Did Something Just Change on FR?
Free Republic ^ | 3/13/09 | Me

Posted on 03/13/2009 9:00:11 AM PDT by Bloody Sam Roberts

I'm seeing a huge difference in the way that FR is displaying.

On two PCs, the Browse page has changed dramatically. One PC's display format of the Browse Articles page changed while I was viewing it.

Has anyone else experienced this in the past 10 minutes?

Or am I on drugs?

Well that’s good for you, I can’t get the General/Chat headlines to appear in the sidebar navigation (I don’t get the categories as a choice when I go to select which ones to configure).

First, put the pipe down. You are not on FR, this is the Huffington Post. Nah- Just kidding. I have seen no changes, however I don’t discount the idea that this is a communist plot. Maybe it has changed, and somehow toxic brain waves came through our computers and you were missed. Keep the rest of us posted-you may be our link to truth. For now I will bid you a good day, my comrade.—JM

There is nothing wrong with your television. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are now controlling the transmission. We control the horizontal, and the vertical. We can deluge you with a thousand channels or expand one single image to crystal clarity - and beyond. We can shape your vision to anything our imagination can conceive. For the next hour we will control all that you see and hear. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the deepest inner mind to... The Outer Limits. Please stand by.

I've looked now for about 20 minutes and still no boat, I think this optical illusion claim is B. S.

am I on drugs?

If you don't know if you are on drugs you probably are or,

you've entered The Obama Zone! Where nothing is like it was and nothing works anymore.

It's funny. I can recite that opening, verbatim...in my sleep if necessary. I've seen about every Outer Limits episode there is. Old ones and new.

And it’ll become really small.

Could it be that you just become really large?

I'm assuming you know how to access the area in your account settings where you assign a number that determines the "weight" or lineup of the categories.

You say, in that area the categories don't exist. Truly, 'tis odd, that.

That could very well be an explanation of the phenomenon you claim to have seen. I know if I watch the CBS or NBC nightly news regularly, sometimes I even believe what they tell me.

Bandwidth thief. Bandwidth thief. LOL I had one hotlinked image replaced with a XXXXX rated one once. I had to ping the mods quick.

Change you can't believe in, change you wish never happened or change your screens got tweaked in?

Did you accidentally hold down Ctrl and scroll your mouse wheel? That changes text size.

Wow. Cool trick. Never knew that.
