In bygone days Ents roamed an internet paradise of purposeful forums, but in recent times Ents have grown quiet. Indeed, Ents are so rarely heard from these days that netizens have begun to doubt that they ever existed. Being privy to the secrets of the ancients Ents are an extremely powerful Warriors, and are all the more so because of the veneration in which they are held. Warriors who chop and burn an Ent in battle will not earn glory, but will instead incite the enmity of the entire forum.

You can’t count how many FReepers you knew and/or interacted with that have passed away.

That brought back a memory. RIP 68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub

If you have been called an idiot more than 15 times you have been here too long

How to tell if you've been FReeping too long

You realize that the sum total of your posts would add up to many full length books and that therefore the time could probably have been better spent doing something that actually led somewhere.

You remember when Lazamataz was a N00b.

Have I been here a long time if I remember the first time a moose bit Laz's sister?

Your post count no longer fits in a 16-bit integer.

OMG, I’ve been Freeping too long! Now what?

[FourPeas]

This thread is on its third page and I've not seen anyone challenge your premise yet!

One can NEVER FReep too long!

There used to be tagline threads monthly that listed the best taglines. I miss those.

■You consider anyone who joined after the last millennium a N00b.

■You remember when Lazamataz was a N00b.

■You still consider Laz a N00b.

You remember that a thread was considered to be a very popular thread when it hit 35 posts.

You remember the "dont ping Arthur McGowan" thread which was the very first thread to hit 1000 posts

Lots of personal friends and acquaintances have become FReepers.

Thanks to FreeRepublic, my DH, Mr. RightField, has been a recovering Liberal for nearly 10 years now. (I lurked for over a year before signing up or I'd have one of those coveted 1997 signup dates). In fact, I'm promoting him to Rabid Conservative at this point . . . he's even buying Mark Levin and Wayne Perryman books for HIS liberal relatives. LOL

Your spouse runs into the computer room and exclaims so and so just happened in Seattle. You say, “Yeah I just read about it on FR.”

[Fiddlstix]

Someone should mention A+Bert just for old times sake.....
And "Ash Alerts" too come to think of it......

I'm still here and, believe it or not, remember. Even in my advanced age!
