FReepers of a certain vintage will recall that strange species of missive, the “Opus.” Periodically members would leave, but would pen an “Opus,” the lengthy explanation. I never quite understood these; they seemed a bit self-important to me.
Today is my 25th anniversary on FR. I’m not going to anywhere, so this is my “No-Pus.” Many thanks to my FRiends for this great community. Apologies if I’ve ever been unduly unkind.
As of today I have 12,777 replies, 1.4 per day on average for 25 years. When I post a stat like this, some of my FRiends will point out that they have 200,000 or 300,000 posts and replies. All I can do is promise to try harder in my next 25 years.
Salut! Your FRiend, Jhavenfarm

Passed my 28th year here the end of November. I've grown old with Free Republic.
Just passed my 28th anniversary on Saturday.
Noob.
🤣

I liked Rush but I just couldn’t take all the commercials, didn’t really listen that much. Especially when I had Free Republic.
I used to late night email stuff into the Talkmaster, Neil Boortz. He’d get up and do his early AM show prep, while I was asleep, and somehow magically obscure stuff I’d found here and sent in would end up in his daily show notes and on his AM talk show.
‘I’m not going to anywhere”
Be sure to close the door!!!
Glad that you do not suffer from pus. 🙂
I suspect that the “crazy” people on FR from back then suffered the zot.
Congratulations!
Thanks for posting about your 25th FReeper Anniversary.
Just checked my account... 25th FReeper Anniversary November 20, 2020!
Time flies!!!
“NOPUS”

I know there is a joke in there...
Somewhere.

My 28th anniversary comes up December 22.
Wow. You really are a member of the Founders’ Club
Welcome newbie!
Congratulations! My 25th anniversary was back on Oct 17. Lurked before that. Here everyday, I just don’t post much.
Its not the number of posts so much as the quality.
For some reason, “No-PUS” made me immediately think of my ex-wife.
Welcome aboard, newbie!
People are strange sometimes. Once in a while on forum discussion websites somebody will get in a snit over some perceived slight and demand that their account be “cancelled” and all of their posts deleted. Forums usually don’t really work that way. For some reason proffered advice like “just don’t login anymore” isn’t good enough.
“This isn’t an Airport. You don’t need to announce your Departure” is a pretty good retort I’ve seen.
