What we need is an EASY Button. Every day, especialy early morning, we are invaded by trolls, especialy on the local boards who's only purpose is to sign up and disrupt. Even though we FReepmail the mods about them sometimes it takes hours to get them removed. Teddy WAlmat and the many variations of thet name and many other. It would be nice to have an alarm button where we could just flush these guys down the old tube in short order.
Thank you... and thanks to the mods for zotting that stuff.
You're right that I did lurk on Free Republic from time to time before signing up; I signed up a number of years later when I decided I wanted to post something. That happened because somebody else had posted an article I wrote for the newspaper where I was working at the time, he made some negative comments that were based out of the wrong assumption that I'm a liberal, and I decided I needed to respond. I don't remember now whether my publisher knew about my response in advance, but it was a long time before I decided to post anything else and I mostly went back to lurking.
Whatever the reason, I'm glad I missed the gay stuff.
