There is a group on Yahoo that Jim set up for when the FR servers are down to get updates and any vital information to be put out.
go here.

I’m in for the monthly thing. Out of sight, out of mind. Then, when I download my financial data it’s all there.
But as you say, it’s whatever makes you comfortable. And in addition to my monthly, I donated a little something a month or two ago. It doesn’t hurt to keep the pump primed...
I'm not sure how this could be. It often takes no more than 10 seconds to click on a poll link, vote, then return to FR.
I look on it as not allowing leftists the sole voice on the internet -- and just possibly discouraging a few or painting a different picture for the MSM, as leftists tend to think the whole world adores Obama. You can sense their shock when even online polls don't turn out as they "should" or when conservatives make pro-McCain/Palin comments (how dare they!). I just don't see how Freeping a poll could possibly do anything but help.
He or she is having big doubts about Obama and the divisive campaign being run by Obamas radicals.
I think you have really pegged what the Obama campaign is all about and that is intimidation.
Obama should be a wake up call to all Americans but I am afraid that patriotism is having to take a back seat to Bitch Slapping Rap and selfish me to politics.
I assume you mean like this one?
bfl
What you mean is Chicago machine politics. That's what we're seeing. And when Obama told McCain "You ain't seen nothing yet" or words to that effect, he meant what he said.
Everything that's happened has been at his behest. It's his political meme. And it's going to get worse, especially when the GOP polls as strong as it has.
It wasn’t meant to be PC by any means and it definitely wasn’t because of over sensitivity. It was the truth for myself and several others I know. I’m saying that the content of the posts should be the qualification for being considered a sleeper, not the sign up date.
“RDBs max out at thousands of transactions per second. “
wha? if by thousands you mean nearly two hundred thousand of them and the atomic transaction done by a rdb is going to get far more work done than on a flat file structure.

>>Bump Bill, you are right. Some of us remember the HSW attacks and the Islamic attacks.<<
What was the book that documented the Clinton attacks on FR? It was a thrill to read it, especially since I knew most of the FReeper names being mentioned.
EVERY FReeper should read it. To know what we would be looking forward to with an Obama *shudder* presidency.
Yes, that's been happening a lot with me too. I didn't know if it was a problem on my end or not.

I'll be honest, what I know about computers and the Internet could be written on the back of a match book and still have room for the Constitution.
However, I do have close sources that tell me this is possible.
I am still trying to figure out how that porn site ...err thats another matter.
Just as I said there are ways to manipulate polls.
The other day on CNN they ran a poll on (I forget now but I think it was on Palin)and with in a couple of minutes that the poll was up the anti Palin votes were something like 29,000 or so No to 1,700 Yes.
I don't doubt for one minute that these polls can be manipulated by real smart but common sense dumb, radical muck diving godless liberal nerds.
Just my lowly opinion constantly metamorphosing out here in the desert.
Um, this is my own time.
Last time I looked Jim Robinson didn't mind having prayer threads on this forum, especially since he himself has been the recipient of thousands of prayer posts and he can attest to the power of prayer on this forum.
Frankly I have no idea what your point is here. Maybe if you prayed for more bandwidth instead of going into a panic over the Obamaniacs, then maybe you'd accomplish some good here.
This forum has survived quite nicely for a decade without your leadership. And there are hundreds of Freepers who sincerely appreciate that this is a place where you can not only discuss political issues, but where we can pray for each other, pray for our country and PRAY FOR OUR KITTIES!
Yep, Hillary’s Secret Warriors.
I'm only seeing the behavior with FR, so I'm pretty sure it's not on my end.
I assume you mean like this one?
You left out an important part of KayEyeDoubleDee's comment:
"concentrating instead on promoting the work of people [like Kristinn] who are doing original investigative reporting and who are presenting their results in simple, straightforward, declarative arguments."
