Vanity Post on Vanity Posts, Duplicate Posts, Trash Posts, Commie Propaganda, etc., Vol V, No. 1
Free Republic | Jan 25, 2002 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 01/25/2002 9:38:23 PM PST by Jim Robinson

Way too many vanity threads lately. And way too much trash being posted. Please try to stay on topic (politics). Also, please do a search on a significant word from the title of your article before posting. This will reduce the number of duplicates. And, along these same lines, please use the original titles on your article posts. Do NOT edit the titles. Do NOT use "My Title" titles. This will also help to reduce the number of duplicates.

And, whatever else you do, please DO NOT post from DEMOCRATS UNDERGROUND (or any other such trashy un-American socialist hangout). Free Republic was intended to be a socialist free zone. We've gone to a heck of a lot of trouble to make it that way. Why in the world would you think we would be interested in having their trash posted here?

And QUIT trashing each other. You know who you are. Knock it off! Way too many flamewars and feuds going on. And, while I'm thinking about it, QUIT trashing our conservative candidates. If you want to criticize someone's position on some policy, have at it. But do not trash or smear the man. That would include Browne, Buchanan, Bush, Keyes, et al, or whomever else may be your favorite trashee (examples listed in alphabetical sequence). The idea is to get more conservatives elected, not to trash the ones you don't like. If you want to trash someone, make it a Democrat. Thank you.

And QUIT dredging up old communist propaganda to smear our conservatives. Sheesh! Whatever else you may think about our guys, they did not hijack airliners full of people and crash them into buildings. No, my friends, not even the dreaded CIA. Anyone who would believe (or even suspect) that crap is no FReeper. I've been pulling this crap whenever I see it and several people have been banned for continuing to post it. I do not want it on Free Republic. Any current FR poster who believes this leftist propaganda, please logoff immediately, send me your resignation via email, and I will delete your account.

Thanks,

Jim

Speaking of Jim's article, who's bright idea was it to post DU crap here maligning 10 "stupid" Republicans?

Please, folks, when Jim says no DU, he means no DU. We do not need a bunch of posts from the Brownshirt crowd telling us how much they hate Bush.

Leave the folks at DemocraticUnderground.com to their friendly activities......

As you can see, our friends at DU have many ways to get their message out.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

Thank you very much for stating this one. This one will be referenced and used frequently to quell the hypocrites.

I assume that would be anyone not in the same mind set as you.

I hope that goes for the ever popular (practically every other thread) , infantile, "barf alert" too. I have yet to check any one of those threads out.

KNOW YOUR ENEMY!
I can understand not posting from DU, but mainstream articles that could sway the average sheep should be posted so that FReepers can do something to counteract them. Also (and I may be wrong here), I don't think adding words to a title will affect a later search.

It's not about what YOU think.

A quote from the very first paragraph from JR:

And, along these same lines, please use the original titles on your article posts. Do NOT edit the titles. Do NOT use "My Title" titles. This will also help to reduce the number of duplicates.

If I post an article and place (barf alert) after it:
1. I am using the original title. I am only placing (barf alert) after it.
2. I am not editing the title (which means to alter, adapt, or refine) by placing (barf alert) after it.
3. I checked and it does not affect a title search by adding (barf alert), which is what Jim was trying to have us avoid.
If Jim specifically says no (barf alert)s, I will abide the rule, but I (and apparently many others) enjoy them.

I don't know if "enjoy" is the right word, maybe appreciate is more appropriate for my feeling.

You have nailed it. thx
