Excerpt

[knak]

Holy Moly! You've been busy!

[Bikers4Bush]

Nice report, I like it.

[facedown]

A thankless task well done.

[EggsAckley]

B.U.M.P.

[tiamat]

What is all of this about?

Just asking.

Tia

[Sir Gawain]

What about that vanity from the freeper that was pulled late a few nights ago? I read it and didn't see anything wrong with it. It was about his views on prostitutes getting killed.

[Lead Moderator]

I was out of town Fri-Sun, but I just did a quick check over the pulled threads during that timespan and don't see any that appear to fit your description, at least based on the titles.

[Lead Moderator]

Some people are curious about how many threads we pull and why. I occasionally post something like this to let people see. Thanks, LM

[AppyPappy]

Doesn't the orgasm button article get posted here a lot?

[sourcery]

Is there a thread that explains this new report? (e.g. Schedule? Motivatations? Expected content?)

I think it's a good idea, by the way.

[Lead Moderator]

I think I found it. It was an opus thread that included a parting insult at all of us. "But I don’t want to hurt any more strangers, and I’m sick of fueling the small-minded bigotry that runs rampant here in the name of "independent, grass-roots conservatism.""

[Lead Moderator]

Schedule- we'll see. I am playing it by ear.

Motivations- varied. Mostly to just let people see.

Expected content- what you see here.

[tiamat]

Oh! okay! thanks!

Tia

[ClancyJ]

Thanks for your efforts and THANKS for pulling some of those that "we don't need on FR". I vote for keeping FR a "class" site. Helps our credibility.

[FourPeas]

Thanks.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

small-minded bigotry that runs rampant here in the name of "independent, grass-roots conservatism.""

He does seem upset about something, probably went back to DU!!!

Thanks for your work and the work of all the other moderators.

[justshe]

I really like this report. And it does much, imo, to dispel the charges of arbitrary pulling of threads...and to give a REALISTIC report on the number of threads pulled. NOT in the 100's.....or THOUSANDS.....lol!

Good job! Hope to see this type of report again, as warranted.

[Triple Word Score]

I dedicate this to you guys:

Watch "CAT HERDING" under TOP RATED. It's absolutely perfect.

"Anybody can herd cattle..."

"And if you look at his face, it's just ripped to shreds...."

"I'm living a dream."

"When you bring a herd into town and you ain't lost a one of them..."
