How do you Freep? (rare vanity)
The greatest site on the internet ^ | 6/7/2019 | Ed D

Posted on 06/07/2019 1:30:26 PM PDT by Eddie01

Hey Freepers,

I have Breaking News on the left and Front Page News on the right. I used to follow activism but since the days of Walter Reed and then Trump Rallys, just not seeing much content, which is WRONG!

"Articles", all the time.

I've only been out here since '98, so looking for more advanced set ups.

Some people find and post to articles that are days old.

I have no idea how they find older relevant content.

Feel like I'm not getting the most our of my account settings.

Interested in how you all do it.

Maybe a Best FRractices guide could come out of this to help the not so smart me and maybe the next generation of Freepers?

Best,

Eddie01

I’m pretty sure my forum page is set to default. I haven’t touched the controls since I joined in 2007.

Works fine for me, and I choose to see all articles posted.

You’ve been here since 1998!? That makes you one of the Old Guard. Have you not been paying attention? I mean...you post multiple times per day.

I’ve come to believe that the Class of ‘98 has more than its fair share of tech illiterates.

It’s only because I quit my job.

We never stop learning BSR.

I read the ‘all articles’ category and keep clicking back until I bump into the end of my previous reading, which means I end up seeing every article posted 24/7.

When I catch up with current articles, I switch to comments and read that unending as needed. The problem with that is, when I post a new comment on the comment thread, most times I have not read all the comments on the article and lose context, but it’s worth the risk.

If it ain’t broke...

I joined 4 days after you.

I wonder what made us do it then.

I was in the new FoxNews forum brawling with liberals.

Real vicious.

The moderators couldn’t handle the dog fighting.

That’s why it was shut down.

...and I was invited to this site by TheRaven who I think became TheRealRaven.

Doesn’t matter.

Got my ass handed to me when I started posting vanities like a mad man. Shut up. Listened.

Note that I didn’t say, “all members of the Class of ‘98 are tech illiterates.”

Down boy! LOL

The vanities that drive me up the wall are the ones in which there are a lot of threads on a subject, like, say the Kavanaugh hearings, and someone who has only a pithy comment (like most everybody else participating in the threads) feels the need to launch a new vanity thread just to post his comment.

One guiding principle that should be generally followed when FReeping, can be found (in some form) in "The Good Book".


       "Whatsoever a man knoweth,
       that shall he also FReep."
