Or perhaps a box that would say something similar if you were about to post an idiotic thread??

Usually the date on the post should tip you off to it’s liveliness. Also if the post is talking about reading the Swift Boat Vets new book about Kerry you should think twice on responding.

Yet another bunny with a pancake on its head. I think that FR has to do something about this problem.

I know the feeling.

I’d suggest checking the date of the last post if you want to avoid that.

Free Republic should display a map of recent crimes involving moose and cheese.

I wish FP would merge duplicate and similar threads.

How about a feature that automatically takes you to your post so you can read it, like we all do, instead of taking you to the beginning of the thread.

Someone needs to come up for a term for going to read your own post after posting it.

LOL!

Dialogue box: “Did you see the time stamp of this thread? It’s right here.. hold on a minute, ummm... it’s.. I swear it’s here, really!”
If nothing else, it would draw some laughs.

They could shorten my posting warning message: “Attention, you are about to post. Are you sure you want to look like an idiot?”

I have a suggestion for the software. How about a box that pops up when I'm posting that says something to effect of: Attention, you've been clicking from thread to thread, and you're about to reply to a topic that has been dead for 3 years, are you sure you want to look like an idiot? I for one would find it useful. :)

Well, the problem is that Free Republic fights the Undead Rats who endlessly recycle their failures into new waves of idiocy that have to be dealt with. So the past isn't really the past with them, since it's all they've got, and they use it over and over and over again.

There are some FReepers that go around bringing dead threads back to life. It's a hobby I guess.

‘Necro-posting’, FTW!!!!!

I’ll be sure to revive this post in around 5 years or so from now!
