I clicked on my bookmark for Free Republic.
The splash page came up.
And then in dawned on me:
Free Republic is 30 years old this year!

Just like most of us! ;>)
I have been on for about 22 years.
And never screwed up the website itself in that 30 years. I mean, I could probably log on with an Etch-A-Sketch. (I consider this a good thing). That’s remarkable
I came on here almost 2 years later. It’s been a blessing (and an addiction).
The First FR Poster..................
I joined the month before you did.
Happy Birthday Free Republic
20 years for me on September 23, 2026!
I have made some good friends here.
Unfortunately, several including NoPardons have passed away.
I’ve been here for 28 of it! 27 years on this account and a year under a previous account I lost the password for.
Arrived in 1998. Got in trouble while teaching school for mentioning Free Republic. The communists have been at work for a long time, but so few seem to care. I guess it is because they do not realize the consequences.
I’ve been on it for 28 of those years. Amazing, ain’t it?
Thanks, Jim!
A website that is still hanging on (barely) with its 30 year technology is by that definition - screwed up.
It works, but imagine how much better is could be.
I have been here 23 years. Recently someone called me a noob.
Me too. Drudge sent a lot of us here that January - his most important contribution to journalism, by far. :)
First Poster....
His post: “I’m angry. I see a conspiracy in the Deep State to cover this up. And to you fools on this forum who disagree, flame away.”
I found FR through Drudge too. Ancient history now.
Just had an idea. What if a lot of us gave $30 today to the continuation of our beloved Free Republic.
Just went first.
