WHERE WOULD YOU GET YOUR NEWS FROM IF FREEREPUBLIC WASN'T HERE? Thread 6

September 18, 2001 | FReepers and Lurkers who care about FreeRepublic

[WIMom]

It is not always easy or fun sitting at a computer for hours and hours monitoring these threads. Every person here is a VOLUNTEER. As a matter of fact, we pay to do this. We spend days and weeks helping to keep FreeRepublic running.

Ask yourself these questions:

Where is the first place I go to get my news?
Am I getting any benefit from FreeRepublic?
Am I learning from FreeRepublic?

FreeRepublic is not free. It costs Jim Robinson tens of thousands of dollars to keep this forum running. There are over 60,000 registered users on FreeRepublic and only 1,000 help keep this forum running regularly. Those who do not have the ability to donate money could help by stopping by and giving a bump. Those who who do have the means and have not contributed, you should be ashamed of yourselves. You are a FReeploader.

We do not want to see this forum dead, therefore, we are asking that you help keep FreeRepublic running.

If everyone who registered donated one measly dollar a month, we would never have to have a fundraiser again.

And it obviously made a difference!!!!!!!!!

[Topaz]

Nice job, it seems to have worked fabulously!!!

Kind of a Ron C. frontal assualt spread throughout the forum. We'll have to add it to the "How many freepers does it take to make a freepathon" list. : )

[kayak]

WOW! Thank you, Freeper!

[Topaz]

No rest for the weary!

[BADJOE]

Please , Please no round two tonight. Lets see what comes in by morning with any extra push.

But he had to run.

[WIMom]

I didn't get one flame. But, I didn't read all the posts either, so I don't know what was said in those. My freep mail was filled with good wishes, and lots of questions on how to donate. Of course, I just told everyone to ask BADJOE (LOL!) Seriously, everyone was great to me! And I replied to all. That took a long time, but if we ask for money, we should also thank those who took the time to write. It was worth everything and I would do it again in a minute.

FReepers are fantastic!

[Mo1]

Hats off to you ... YOU ROCK!!!

[Gabz]

SUPERB!!!!!!!!!

[headsonpikes]

Just suck it up and take it like a man, BADJOE! LOL!

[WIMom]

See, you are way nicer than me.

[Gabz]

THANK YOU FREEPERS

[WIMom]

You people are so funny! Thanks

[Topaz]

I'm happy!
