I think JR also lost patience with people who were attacking him here while they had set up their own site to use for discussions. It’s kind of disloyal to argue you love this site while you are off badmouthing it in your own competing site.
If I were a conspiracy theorist, I would suggest that the “bannings” were part of the plan, and their hope is to generate enough sympathy from non-rudy supporters who are long-time people to move over to their site.
If I was even MORE a conspirist, I would say that explains Peach’s sudden turn to negative personal stuff. She was never that way, but she really likes Rudy, and maybe they convinced her that, if she got herself banned, being beloved and all, it would really help Rudy by making FR look vindictive.
I’m probably all wet, although the result of her getting personal and attacking Jim was that she got banned, and her banning HAS invoked sympathy from some other non-rudy Freepers, and a few HAVE said they are now quitting and some may go over there and say bad things about FR.
So if it wasn’t their intent, it’s how it’s going down. Maybe they aren’t clever enough to have planned it, but it couldn’t have gone much better if they HAD planned it.
I can't seem to find the post or sequence of events that led to the suspension or banning of 'stuned beeber'.
He was the 1 week-old Newbie who seemed to have an awful lot to say about the banned old-timers...to the point that his posts gave me a pain in my chest. (No I'm not thinking of suing...LOL)
I asked him what his previous moniker was but he wouldn't admit to being a recycled poster.
Any info would be appreciated.
