DU Tactics at FreeRepublic

I beg to differ, as a rudy bot I know of not any one who would post such filth. I know a lot of us even though we like Giuliani now, favor other candidates like FT and Mitt. I can’t think of really any Rudy Haters who would even post filth like that. It sounds like turds dropped by hit and run DU’ers

[Fierce Allegiance]

Rudy’s fans generally support Rudy, not go after the other candidates. I don’t think they have the capacity. :)

Were stuk in Irak

Keyword usage has changed a lot lately. There was a time you could add an unlimited amount, and that got abused.

I’m glad I am not a mod here. It must be tough and frustrating.

[maui_hawaii]

Its not so easy.

I believe this to be a systematic problem worthy of a thread.

[Fierce Allegiance]

Most of the rudybots are not veterans. Very few I see daily could or would serve. Big difference, when you employ the irak thing.

[RedRover]

Yes, looking forward to it!

[skateman]

I disagree on both counts, it is not a system wide problem in FR, and it is quite easy to complain to the mods.

[Bob J]

Good luck, you’ve been around since ‘99 you should know half the posters here are (insert expletive).

Bump

[Reaganesque]

Well, apparently someone believes that “MITTRAPESCHILDREN” is fair commentary given the Keywords that have been added to this thread. Apparently only a crybaby would find this offensive. FYI, smart guy, you’ve been reported.

I have to say, asking for "intelligent conversation" here these days can be a challenge.

Or, it could be amusing, if you're on all the time, anyway. I recall a particularly obnoxious series of posts from a troll, which were ended with "Does this ZOT make my @ss look big?" from a mod, lol.

[IslandJeff]

I don’t know, Sir. Was just trying to make a joke.

[maui_hawaii]

We can agree to disagree then.

It is easy to complain to the mods. This thread is a complaint to the mods in a way.

As one pointed out though being a mod probably isn't so easy.

I believe if the Mods did come out and say 'cut it out everyone' then 98% of the crap would cease.

If it were just one troll doing it, thats fine. Case by case would work. But its not.

Problem is the bloodsport here goes way out of bounds and many people even old ones are not as innocent as they believe.

Even though Mitt Romney is not (yet) my first choice, any of the Republican candidates beats Hillary and I support your right to support him.

[Fierce Allegiance]

Some of the mods ae really funny! Their home page here is a riot. One is even good at quoting Talking Heads songs, a definite plus in my book.

[Fierce Allegiance]

Fair enough!

Time to rest up for tomorrows fun & games.

It's downright unamerican too insult a man because of his religion, assuming that religion is more or less reasonable and doesn't include sawing infidel heads off. Now, I'll be the first to say that I strongly disagree with Mormon theology (enough to leave mormonism and join a baptist church, in fact) but so far I have no reason to believe Mitt Romney isn't the decent person he appears to be. After all, between him, R.G. and McCain, he's the only one who hasn't been divorced.

To call the man the anti-christ is uncivilized, unamerican, and inaccurate.
