Enemies of Free Republic sign up to post obscene and vile threads. I've seen a number of them lately, usually on the theme of child-rape. It seems there is a concerted effort to drive Freepers away from the site in disgust. The Mods are quick, still I wonder if it's wise to allow people to sign up and immediately post? I'm a Dollar-a-Day donor to FR and I want this wonderful place to flourish as family-friendly site. I wonder what other Freepers think?
What a coincidence...you and I signed up on the same day, same year...I remember not being able to post for a while also. I think it just may have been in effect for a short time during the period when Gore was trying to steal the election, and a bunch of us were wanting to have our say. That was when the "broken-glass-Republicans" label was born, if I recall correctly.
OK, in your case - if there was a rule made - I'm sure there would be an exception... Post away and add me to your ping list... Thanks.
Dunno. There've been more'n a few recollections like that, pehaps I'm mistake. I do remember it being discussed more'n a few times ...
We need a Congressional hearing on this.
My ratio of threads to replies is the following. For every reply, I post 0.0094850948509485094850948509485095 threads ;). I guess that's about 100 to 1.
It's not standard DUmmie Troll stuff. It could be a banned former-Freeper since at least two tried to smear the owner of this site. I don't know what's going on, but it's disturbing--especiallly for those of us who look at Free Republic with our kids.
But are you logged in?
DEAR PRECIOUS ISRAELI . . .
GOD'S ABSOLUTE BEST TO YOU, YOUR BROTHERS, SISTERS IN ARMS, YOUR COUNTRYMEN, WOMEN; YOUR FAMILIES.
You are in our hearts and prayers.
Thankfully, GOD ALMIGHTY has you even more in His care than we do. Thankfully, God almighty is intensely involved in your land and your people.
I don't know all the sequence or events yet to come. I'm just thankful that God's promises to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are YEA AND AMEN. They are absolutely dependable.
The hearts and arms of man may wax and wane; be strong one minute and useless the next. But the arm of God remains faithful always. Sometimes we may wonder the way events can twist and turn but the end always reveals God's faithfulness.
Anyway--I just wanted to take this chance to affirm my heartfelt and intense support for you and yours at this challenging time.
Blessings,
LUB,
I remember the toilet paper threads! Gads, memories!
I'd rather have some of us post the "DU threads of the day" here. In the humor section.
Many the time's been I've passed on information to ill-informed friends and co-workers because of what you all have provided to this grand forum.
God bless Free Republic! (I know this is off-topic but I had to get this off my chest.)
No; someone else is using your id and password.
If the Democrats/liberals control the house, senate and presidency, sad to say, it may happen.
Shalom...
Everybody now bad mouths AOL, but years ago I remember there was a button next to each post that read "Ignore Poster". Press that baby, and the source was erased from your reading list.
How did that work? Could you see that posts were being "ignored"? Or were ignored posts completely invisible?
If you pressed the ignore button, you would never see posts by that screen name again. Those that chose not to press the button would continue to see posts from that screen name.
I have suggested a Hi Jack complaint button that would record and keep track of every time the poster has tried to hi jack a thread. After reaching a certain number of complaints, the poster would be banished.
Sorry to hear that your girls might have seen/read it, but I missed it completely. I miss the Kitties!
