80,000 Freepers and Growing - Freepathon

[Topaz]

When Jim Robinson started Free Republic in September, 1996 to expose the corruption in government and particularly the Clinton Whitehouse, he was alone. Now six years later, Free Republic has 80,000 registered members and who knows how many visit this site often, just to keep up on the latest conservative thinking.

Folks, you all know where this is going, Free Republic is a user supported website and it is time to support it. Four times a year we have this freepathon to donate a few dollars to pay for the bandwidth and expenses necessary to keep Free Republic online, and we do so with gratitude and cheer because of what is offered and accomplished by the existence of Free Republic.

Free Republic does not charge a membership fee or get supported by a government grant. No, people from across the World make donations large and small because they see the value of Free Republic. So if you're one that appreciates this site and want to see it continue, please send in a few dollars to help keep it alive.

Hi Meek
I have been on a thread which went higher than 4000 posts,
it didn't start to lose posts till we got near the 5000 mark
after 5000 we must start new thread (according to John Rob)
I am not having trouble loading this one yet, and I am on dial up
Love, Palo

[glock rocks]

it is my understanding that if you go to settings and set your number of posts to a lower number, it will load faster
and this is independent of the length of the thread itself. i believe this
is the reason John made the software do this.

i have T-1, so i leave it at 250. the large (in bytes) pics slow down loading, especially
if they are hosted by a slow server where they reside. (i proved this to badjoe yesterday morning).

Looks like a lot of conservatives in California doing what is right!

They are giving back to Free Republic for keeping all of us informed and sane!

Without Free Republic, Rush, Sean, and a couple of other conservative sites, Kalifornia is a lonely, hostile and scary place to be a conservative!

Thanks to Free Republic, we can link up with other conservatives in Kali and across our great land. This enables us to keep our sanity and not feel that we are by ourself.
