Would a forum to invite newbies to ask questions help increase participation?
HG, I used to have one of your posts saved where you ended a sentence with a preposition, I need to see if I can find it.
“do you know how many come now? have you spoken with “management”? have they expressed concerns? “
Is this a forum? Do I look cool when I use questions as answers?
We're keeping track and will be consulting our accounting department.
I don't know that donations to the TFfNTN qualify for exemption.
Good luck finding where it is at.
Way to win friends and influence people:
#1. Insult their Moms.
You made it too easy. I’ll have to hunt for a dangling participle or something.
I swear they sent you over here from MSNBC.
Whom do you work for—Olbermann or Matthews?
i didn’t realize you had asked me a question. i am asking YOU questions. do you know anything ABOUT FreeRepublic?
“There already is a n00b welcome wagon. Instead of coming in with mouth and posts blazing, you could have asked for some help. “
Right. Well said.
Except... I did look around & only a n00b has that “fresh” perspective. Like I keep saying, only if we WANT to grow... only THEN should we consider making changes.
FR is cool. I love it. I want people I know to find it... but many of them just will not make it here. That makes me, well, maybe not “sad” but I don’t like it.
People like us just went around the GOP to support Scott Brown. I want more of us using “the wisdom of crowds” and “an army of Davids” to change the USA. I want it to happen faster.
No, I am not concerned with offending any natives. I am new here, not on planet earth... not as a conservative... not on message boards...
It is a forum, I’ll just speak my mind like everyone else.
The N00B welcome wagon needs to be improved. IMO. Pplease and thank you, if that is OK with all of the tender britches here.
A generous serving of Root 1 Cabernet Saugvinion, please.
“You didnt put a state flag on your home page. Keeps you out of a lot of interesting local news, but hey!”
Interesting state news? In California? All I have to look forward to is the coming bankcruptcy. Er... make that “receivership” I’d hate to get cuaght using the wrong legal word, like Carly....
The voters here will not wake up until the whole thing crashes. I hope i’m wrong...
“Seriously, duuuude, I think you have grossly overestimated our interest in this subject.”
There is a good chance of that. On the other hand... there have been a lot of comments.
Actually, I thought your opening sentence was interesting.
You could start such a thread as a vanity, and you and all the other n00bs could sit around and teach each other the things you learn about FR....
If you’re right, and n00bs need such a thing, it would be huge. If not, oh well.
I think he's a customer service rep in Pakistan.
Maybe, then, you might be APPROXIMATELY interested in ending the super majority & kicking the Kennedies in the nuts?
Or maybe in the dramatic increase number of good conservative candidates willing to run?
Or in the press that might bring John McCain down?
>>For the best response you should post them in breaking news.<<
Best advice that n00b will ever get. Breaking News is the way to get the fastest responses to the most trivial questions.
“And it really extremely bad form to be only recently arrived and to start making suggestions about how the site can be improved. Really bad form.”
It is a forum, not a mausoleum.
I suggested a forum for NOOBs. Get over yourselves.
