What has happened to Free Republic?
Vanity | 2-22-06 | Holly101

This post will probably get pulled, but, I honestly want to know what has happened to Free Republic. In breaking news, some of it will stay there for weeks when it's old news. I used to check here first because you could count on Free Republic having the most "up to date" news than anyone on the net. Now, it's just like some of the other sites where you don't know if what you're reading is today or two weeks ago. Even the quick links at the top are outdated. You can go ahead and get mad but it's still the truth.

I always find this little section called "the date" and a calendar helpful.

I've thought the same thing but have been too afraid to say anything, especially about the breaking news. And I really count on getting a lot of my news on FR.

Try this and bookmark as your new home page. For some reason, some visitors do not default to this page.

You've been around since 2000 but have only posted 12 times?

The threads are user supplied. If the users don't want to put up a thread on any given topic it won't get put up. If the users want to put up a thread on something that was yesterday's news two weeks ago, that is what gets put up. FR is not a news service, but a discussion board.

While we are all navel-gazing, I'm wondering why do FR veterans avoid posting under Your Opinion/Questions and choose Miscellaneous instead?

Perhaps it's because of too many people posting vanities to breaking news.

I don't think a ZOT is in order. This is no newb writing here, but someone who's been on FR since 2000.

I agree there's plenty of problems with the setup of this site, but there probably could've been a better way to vent your frustration than this right?
