Recently, two Freepers who have some measure of prominance outside the forum have been damaged by liberals and/or Democrats. Jeff Gannon has resigned as a White House reporter, and the individual who goes by the name NCPAC has left his position in Maryland.
J. Gannon wasn't necessarily damaged by anything he posted here, but NCPAC was damaged by the work of a Democrat mole or a Washington Post reporter who revealed his freepmails.
It should be possible to post on this forum with anonymity and to be able to really discuss what's on your mind without worrying about Democrats trying to ruin your professional life, so, in order to help prominent Republicans who may wish to be an active member of Free Republic, I'm formulating some suggestions that I would like to have new users see.
This is what I have so far, as far as guidelines to help our prominent freepers avoid damage in the future:
If You Are A High-Profile Individual In Real Life .
If your daily job is such that you are a high-profile individual as example, an official in a Republican campaign, or a state official in a Republican administration, or a rightward-leaning reporter please read this article and take these suggestions.
- Please dont reveal your identity. Please dont drop hints as to who you are. Please dont succumb to the temptation to show off a little and thusly compromise your anonymity.
- Know that there are Democrat operatives (and now, it appears, Legacy Media reporters) who pretend to be loyal conservatives. They will attempt to get you to reveal damaging information about your candidate, your administration, or your media enterprise.
- This is for ALL Freepers: Never reveal any personal contact information. Please dont post (or share in Freepmail) any email accounts, private phone numbers, addresses, or places of employment unless you really know and trust the person to whom you are revealing these things.
- Know that Freepmail can be, and sometimes is, exposed publicly. Please, never say anything in Freepmail that you would not want posted on the public forum. Please, people, add whatever you think might be helpful, and I will post the result as a new article.
I would have listed #3 - getting in a "private" conversation with someone in FReepmail is very dangerous. Please be sure you know the screen name - check out their FReeper page - if they have only been on this thread for a very short period of time be careful what you say.
Also .. each FReeper can see a list of another FReeper's postings. If you take the time to read what the other person has commented about - the subjects they are interested in - the comments they make - you can get a pretty good sense about who the person is.
If the person has never posted - or only made a few smarmy comments about certain items - I'd be very suspicious about the person. That's just my personal experience. And .. if they have NEVER posted - I'd be wary of giving out any private information to that person.
Also .. a troll is usually attacked at FR right away - and I believe the spying media has discovered they cannot blatantly come on this website and wield any power. After watching us attack real disruptors - I believe they have determined that it's better to remain stealth and get friendly with someone and get their confidence in FReepmail. WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND WE ARE IN A WAR - THE OLD MEDIA IS OUT TO DISCREDIT US. LET'S NOT ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN.
Remember during the 2000 election .. there were groups of people who would go from thread to thread dropping BOMB after BOMB statements - and then they would just sit back and watch us explode over the statement. This is just another attack - by a different method.
If you're a high profile person - we need for you to keep your confidential information to yourself - and don't be lured into a FReepmail give away to the SPYING MEDIA.
Is that why I have to wear glasses now?
I just want to go on record as saying that I'll never tell a soul about our enchanted evening in Wilkes Barre, PA. |
"So, whats my name??? :)"
Is that a trick question? There is no tortue painful enough to make me talk. uh.....buy me a beer?
No one sees your private replies except your intended recipents unless you or they share them with others. I do not view them or screen them in any way, shape or form. Neither does John (our systems manager) or the moderators. Your private mail is intended to be private.
The scary thing is I actually DID rendezvous with a young lady in Wilkes Barre once. She lived in Connecticut and I in New York, and Wilkes Barre was the exact 50% mark between us.
Most depressing town I have ever seen in my life.
Dunno, what's your real name and address, I'll google ya up and lQQk into it. :^}
LOL! :^D
"Is that why I have to wear glasses now?"
Check your palms-are they hairy? If so, yes, but the fact that you can see this is proof you stopped in time.
They don't call it Wilkes Barre for nothing. Hope the young lady, the wine or the food, proved more uplifting than the town.
Thanks for the ping. 100% agreement.
Yep!
The FR mail was between NCPAC and MD4Bush. MD4Bush posted them on the forum.
ROTF!! : )
But it does have a chess opening variation named for it.
Well if they are viewing this thread, then I can give my reply to them, their idiotic beliefs, their lying and their treachery:
"Go forth and multiply"
