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.

Hey Laz! You rock.

[Sabertooth]

Group hug.

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

To some of the funniest folks on FR!

Kudos right back at you, Miss Annie, as the founding mother of the very popular "Word For The Day" thread, and to Rika for continuing the good work you started.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Ditto your thanks to the DC Chapter-including Dr. Raoul. Your courage, commitment, and constant love of freedom and truth inspire all of us....more than you know.

[Sabertooth]

You are all fair-minded in disagreement.

[omegatoo]

[Argh]

Miss Annie, I just want you to know that I don't think you're a toothless hag even if you are a toothless hag. You're welcome.

[kayak]

You help make ATRW a very special place to be .... :-)

[rintense]

I disagree.

[sinclair]

Thanx for many hours of pleasure and an equal amount of aggravation. After all, how could we understand one without the other.

[Ladybug1]

I would like to thank my mom and dad, for without them I wouldn't be here. (giggling) : )

[Psalm 73]

Wow, just caught this, thanks AGYG. Thread is a real sight for sore eyes.
"I think Lazmataz has the best sense of humor in Freep-world."
Hey, that felt good...

[redrock]

Thank You for everything.

[HELLRAISER II]

Thanks for your kind words, however it probably scares the hell out of everybody else to find out that somebody else here on Free Republic actually thinks like me.

[Howlin]

Thanks to you ALL for the many, many laughs over the past months; it's so nice to know that any time of day, you are are "in here" in my monitor, chatting away, and I can come in and visit!

[Howlin]

Can't forget YOU!

[redrock]

To two of the BEST.....who can argue a point to exhaustion...but in such a nice manner that you don't mind getting smacked around.

redrock

[redrock]

One of the 'BEST' writers here..(and can really write one mean e-mail too..)

We disagree a lot...but I appreciate you being here.

When it comes to compliments (and only compliments ;-) I'm known by my friends for gross understatement. I don't dole them out with abandon, my compliments are indicative of the exceptional. As someone with a deep appreciation of the fact that 95% of the work goes on behind the scenes to produce the 5% that people see, my compliments go out to J&J Rob for obvious reasons, the Admin Mods (it's a dirty job but somebody's gotta do it), BobJ & Dio (the "Make It Happen™" guys), AnnaZ & Merc, Luis, Doug, John, the rest of the radio hosts who take care to put on a good show, and all of the other folks whose names never appear in the credits but without whose efforts FR would not exist.

My compliments also to John Huang2, kattracks, and the other folks on the graveyard shift that give me something to read at 4am ;-)

[callisto]

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

That's a definite! Thank you both for such a fun adventure!! My little one talks about the Tweety bus EVERY day.
