A Note to the Mods from the Viking Kitties
6/9/2003 | MWS

Posted on 06/19/2003 12:08:57 PM PDT by MWS

Dear Moderators,

We Viking Kitties do not like to complain. In fact, we generally enjoy Free Republic and all that it has to offer. It is a great place to read articles and hold great debate and discussion.

As you are very well aware, sometimes trolls wander onto this board, and we enjoy having a little fun with them. It's a great way to let off a little stress during the day and gives us a chance to laugh at the extreme liberals that wander into our midst.

In the past, moderators would zot the trolls and allow us FReepers to post our pictures and insults for a while until we got tired of doing so. As of late, however, we've been noticing that most of these threads get pulled before we get half a chance to respond to them.

Now, it is certainly understandable that some of these need to be pulled. They are idiotic posts in the first place and the threads that revolve around them take up bandwidth. If that is the issue, I think most of us can respect the decisions you have made it pulling them.

I suppose the main question at hand is this: have we done something to upset you in some way? Or is the problem simply one of bandwidth? It certainly has not been our intent to cause any problems, if that has been the case.

Thank you in advance for helping us to understand this situation!

Well, here goes nothing... I suppose it couldn't hurt to ask the question that's on the minds of Viking Kitties everywhere!

Moderators: I understand fully if you decide to pull this thread. I just had to ask...

Very well today, thanks!

I just figured it was about time someone asked about the lack of zot threads!

I am contemplating the ultimate irony if a Viking Kittie had their thread ZOT!ed.

Perhaps, the Admin will permit us to sumbmit our pettion before the Grand Council of MOD without being electrocuted in the processes. Only time will tell..

It's every Viking Kittie's fear to be smashed by the hammer of the mods...

Remember me, fellow kittens, and don't let the trolls take my remains! ;-)

*Bows before the great Mod*

We request your attention just for a moment, if it's not a terrible inconvenience...

The addage; "Ours is not to reason why, but to do and die" comes to mind.

I doubt the great Admin Mod will respond, merily because he doesn't have to. I respect that in the gods, no answer is an answer after all.

Who knows, maybe the next time we get bombarded with Trolls, we will have a feast!

I suppose that is a good point!

Or maybe it's time for this kittie to become an atheist and admit the truth...

KITTY MASTER (or is it MASTERED) HAS THE SOLUTION !!!

I offer the Viking Kitties Cat Treats....

If that is not sufficient, I also offer the Viking Kitties Catnip......

Back later. Time for Kitty Master to feed kitties. Really shows you who is master, eh?

Can a dog lover be a Viking Kitty? If so, please do me the great honor of allowing me to join your ranks.

That's a tough call, but I'm sure exceptions can be made!

I suppose...I have a golden retriever that acts like a cat. I can't have cats, my wife is allergic.

I'm in reverse... I can't have wives; my cats are allergic, ROFLOL.
