It's Compliment Weekend at FR!
None | 6/21/02 | AGYG

Posted on 06/21/2002 9:18:04 AM PDT by anniegetyourgun

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.

I want to thank all the FReepers who freeped during the Presidential election fiasco. Many FReepers freeped for the very first time. It was beautiful. And to the FReeper who designed the "Sore Loserman" sign. And to "Abner" for her great sign making, etc. And to the Fresno FReepers who keep up the Friday night FReeps to support our troops. There are too many FReepers to thank. Oh, and CounterCounterCulture for his imagination and creativity. Too many to thank.

Thanks I enjoy everyone and must say that nearly all of those FReepers whom I've been unable to reach civility with eventually self destruct anyhow.

Reaching a level of civility even with one's ideological opponent is a benchmark of a Republic.

Take Care.

I would like to thank everyone who thinks quicker than me and says all the things that I would like to say, but takes me another 24 hours to come up with! If it weren't for you-all, I'd never get my point across.

Kudos to the only Freeper I've seen online on Unreal Tournament. You would think more Freepers would be interested in playing UT online since you can blow their head off with a sniper rifle. What a great stress reliever!

Thanks for accidentally creating the funniest thread I ever read on Free Republic.

Wrong. Sorry, but the absolute funniest FR thread ever was to Arthur McGowan, when he complained of excessive pinging to him.

It went to 1000+, back when that was an impressive number

A special thanks to you GrampaDave. You singlehandedly built the monthlies from $4500 to $7000.

Palo you kept us all awake and smiling during the last Freepathon.

I find it amusingly disturbing that that subject piques your interest.

I know where you're coming from, but then again, I wasn't always what I am. :)

Glad you guys are here slogging away!

As my boss told me on my first management job: " If nobody likes me I must be doing something right."(He was eventually pushed out by the board of directors, but that's beside the point.)
