Vanity: Questions for FR protocol;

Posted on 03/23/2009 12:49:30 PM PDT by shotdog

I'm new and I have several questions regarding procedure. Is it allowed to email excerpted articles posted here? If so, how do I do it? What is the meaning of "ping", "banglist" and "bump?" Mrs. Dog wants to know, too. Thanks.

Ping - draw another poster(s) attention to a thread by including their screen name in the to: box.

Banglist - of interest to 2nd Amendment posters.

Bump - a content-free post meant to get articles back into the Latest Comments view.

You can forward links via emails just as long as you make a donation to the Free Republic Moderator's Retirement/Beer Party fund (just kidding, we only have a beer fund).

To beer, or not to beer; that is the question. Will consult the Exchequer prior to the next quarter fund drive. This is inarguably the best of the blogs. Thanks.

Bttt: back to the top. It’s the same thing as a “bump.”

it’s shorthand for

“if you type sequences of characters into scroogle.org, you will find their meaning with little-to-no effort”

Ping is the sound when you over tighten a bolt and it breaks. Usually in a very difficult to fix situation.
Bump is the sound of strange things in the night when your’re hiding under the covers.
Banglist I’m not sure about, but I think it’s a country close to India or something.
Yes, you can e-mail from the posted articles but a fee must be paid first. Contact me with a credit card number and we’ll discuss it further.
PS, best we keep this between us. Momma doesn’t need to know.
