Ha! No kidding. A halo over some FReepers' heads?
Halo, schmalo. Such nonsense.
I think your characterization of Freepers is WAY OFF--I never, ever haved claimed a halo, nor do I act like I have one, I don't think...and I don't know many freepers that do...
I know a lot of freepers that readily admit mistakes and usually laugh at themselves when doing it...I laugh a whole lot more when on FR, than get angry...
BUT, if you want stimulating debate, this is a great place, but if you play by the rules, it is doubtful that you will get in trouble...
I don't think a lot of what you think is "preferential treatment" is that so much as the context of the post...I have found that sometimes, depending on the urgency of the thread, or the context of the thread, different things are allowed that might not be at other times...
Sure, there are "favorites and old-timers", that is natural and if you want to and play by the rules, and get a thicker skin, you too will prolly end up in that catagory some day, just like I hope to....
Hey, speak for yourself ;-)
