80,000 Freepers and Growing - Freepathon
3-1-02 | Topaz

Posted on 03/01/2002 4:59:36 AM PST by 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.

some flamers are fun and funny

Believe it or not, I enjoy being flamed. Reason being, most of those flaming me can't handle my arguments and have no choice but to resort to flaming. It's fun!!!!

"A lot of people come to FreeRepublic on a daily basis for their news. Strangely, many of them never stop to think about how this site is paid for. Many have no idea that FreeRepublic is fully funded by the people who use the site.

If everyone who was registered donated $1 a month, we'd never have to have a fund raiser. Unfortunately, that doesn't happen. Some people think their $5 or $10 wouldn't make a difference, but it would."

          - McGavin999

Bump!!


An excerpt from Grampa Dave's Free Republic Lifeform post:

"This is a wonderful description of what Free Republic really is. It is a living and evolving Life Form to battle the left wingers and those who would destroy this country!...

Free Republic needs a constant infusion of cash to keep the Free Republic Life Form alive, viable and to grow. If we believe in Free Republic, we must donate each month or quarterly to keep this incredible life form alive... Good stewardship is what this world needs, not good intentions. Good conservative stewards will insure that the Free Republic Life Form continues to grow, be viable and thrives!"


The Free Republic Life Form continues to grow -- no matter how large or small a contribution, your "infusion" will make a difference and will be greatly appreciated!!


"Donating to Free Republic is the best investment we can make for us, our family and our friends!"
          - Grampa Dave


Please consider joing Grampa Dave's team -- see: 5,000 Freepers who care are needed now!


I just stopped by for one last bump, then I've got to go for the night. I'll be back to bump tomorrow. I'll donate an extra dollar (up to $10) for every Freeper who bumps this reply between now and midnight PT (one bump per screen name please!) and an extra dollar (up to $10) for bumps between midnight and 6:00 am tomorrow. That'll be an extra $20 for Free Republic just for keeping this reply bumped periodically! I hope that by keeping this information bumped overnight, late-night lurkers will see it for the first time and will be encouraged to help out.

Now here's the challenge: I'd like to get at least four other Freepers to match the dollar per bump (up to $20) - that would be an extra $100 for Free Republic! Thanks to Freepers glock rocks and GrandMoM for matching yesterday's challenge. And Thanks to all Frepers who bumped! See reply 2036.

C'mon lurkers! We need you!! As McGavin999 stated, "Some people think their $5 or $10 wouldn't make a difference, but it would." If you haven't read them before, please read the information in the links posted above and consider Grampa Dave's and McGavin999's words.

Thanks!! Bump away!!

While we're on colors, there's 5 states on the Sissy Pink list. That means that nobody from those locales has sent a dime in new money yet (either a new donation or an increase in their monthlies). Please end the embarrassment.

Your state is sissy pink.
That has got to really stink!
To end its blushing is not hard,
Donate now by credit card.

(Cash, check and PayPal also accepted.)

Please support the FReepathon if you are able.

Checks sent to JimRob do NOT need to reported to me.

They get counted in the Million Freeper Math formula. We have relied on Freeper honesty. If a Freeper says he is sending a check we believe him and count it towards his state totals .
