It's Compliment Weekend at FR!

Given the carping and nasty nature of FR as of late, I thought it might be a good time to see the more civil and gracious side of participants. Here is a thread for just that purpose – to edify, encourage, and thank.

Ever wanted to thank that unsung FR hero? Agree or disagree, why not tell JohnHuang2 or Registered how much you appreciate their skills. And can you imagine the many hours Alamo-Girl puts into her work? Perhaps you appreciate how well the folks over at Word For The Day wield their words. Or maybe you just want to tell WIMom and her gang that you’re sorry for all your unkind words about the recent Freepathon ads, and thank her for all her hard work on that. Maybe you are an FR Radio fan. Well, you get the idea.

What this thread is NOT for: complaints against the management, flaming those you disagree with, bashing the current administration, leaving your opus, whinning about someone being banned, criticizing FR spelling, grammar, or sentence structure, calling out newbies (unless they are disrupting this thread, of course), shilling for your candidacy, carping about a particular regular thread. Well, you get the idea.

Freep on…..

P.S. No, I’m not fishing for compliments. I’ve already been called every name in the book here on FR, and “toothless hag” is still my personal favorite.

Thanks!

Thanks for the entertainment news - the codebreaker always has some great graphics and stories

[Howlin]

Oh, thanks for the FUN we had this year. I still look at that thread and just laugh and laugh!

[Rocko]

That's almost as funny as seeing The Who tour again.

[Constitution Day]

You're welcome. I am glad to do it.

Maybe we'll get rid of Gov. Wea$ley & Co. soon rather than later!

I'd like to give a special thanks to all the regular dosers. I may post the thread, but all of you make it truly special! Thank you all.

[kayak]

Thanks for being here ..... :-)

[Constitution Day]

I would like to thank the British Empire for inventing INDIA PALE ALE.

Dittos to that!!

[Temple Owl]

Thank you for your wonderful and insightful posts.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

Thank you for all the upbeat threads and the outstanding pictures of W....

[Rocko]

Thanks for inventing the Internet so we can waste time like this.

[Harrison Bergeron]

Thanks for all you do around here on the front lines and behind the scenes. I take great pride in having stolen borrowed some of your very best research and ideas.

I hope we can do dinner again some time, next time you pick the restaurant, as long as it's a good steak house named Ruth's Chris or Blackies' or something like that.

I'm also a beer snob... and so is mykdsmom.

I tried Boddington's in the UK and it's great, even in the can.
It has one of those devices that simulate the "pulling" of a pint in the pub.
I think the Guinness pint cans also have that so-called "widget".

I'd like to thank all of you warriors for tirelessly fighting the good fight.

[TomServo]

But I'm still here.

But we don't take you too seriously. ;-)

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Thank you for the "adventure" thread you posted - it made me laugh and laugh, too! And for keeping everybody straight around here.... :-)

[kayak]

You help make ATRW the special place that it is .... :-)

[Jimmy Valentine]

I would like to thank Dr. Raoul, (That would be Dr. Raoul Deming of Takoma Park, Md., political head of the Demings of that ilk); Kristinn; Angelwood, and all of the other D.C. Freepers that were there before the fight became popular.

To stand with them in front of Cheney's house processing Al Gore's eviction, was a high point for me and something I will always remember with pride and a sense of great privilege and admiration.

Best Regards,

[Sabertooth]

Dude, you are relentless.

[Sir Gawain]

But we don't take you too seriously.

All the supervillains' background stories start that way.
