FR DNS problems...
today

DNS lookups failing for FR here - no such host. Apparently I'm not the only one, judging from a glance at the Yahoo FR board. Dunno if it's my ISP (Verizon) or what, but I had to manually edit the hosts file to get here. Presumably, if you can post, you're not having this problem, but there are more than a few people who can't post right now because of it...

Oh.....hh...hhhh....m...m..mmmy g...gg... gosh...Ii i is...sss.... th...h...issss... Fr r r eeeee R...r..r..e..p..ppp...u..u.b.l.l..ic.c.c?????Oh, sorry trying to recover from the shakes after the withdrawl. I remembered the Yahoo site from a couple of years back but, took me a while to find it as it is listed as Free Republic 2 under groups. If you only put Free Republic in a Yahoo search of groups you don't get it as a result. You get the old club that hasn't had a post since 2002.Yahoo making it hard to find FR2 club? Something fishy about all this.

Hey sorry to hear there was problems today. I tried to sign on most of the day only to get, NO FR FOUND. Ouch! I thought perhaps the folks at work had installed a filter. Boy am I a happy camper. I like to check in a couple of times from work to make sure the world hasn't come to an end.
Take care Jim. I like the fr.info idea. Course it will have to be registered... heh heh heh.
I'm outa here. Take care.

I've been experiencing the same dreadful denial here - thank goodness we're back up!!! I was getting freeper withdrawal heebeejeebees...
To: steveegg
Thanks,rhat's how I got here. :-)
I was just wondering of there was another way, that I didn't know about.
I hope this gets fixed soon, though.

Some seattle.politics guy claimed that Free Republic was shut down because it contained death threats against Clarke and members of the 9/11 commission!
To: steveegg; harrowup; Bob J; Billie
We may have an FR fight going on, but in that case I demand than Peutunia show up and BobJ be the referee. Bob is honest if you bribe him enough. And Billie has to play the piano while the fight's going on.

Oi...
What's wrong with being an Aussie?
Besides, I checked your profile. I laugh when you Yanks go on about something being "bigger than Texas". Most of our states are bigger than Texas, by a LONG shot, in fact our biggest state (Western Australia) probably rivals the Louisiana Purchase.
Yes, that's the Louisiana Purchase, not the state of Louisiana as it exists today...
I don't even know why I was pinged to this anyway. I didn't say anything to you, xjones....

Hey Dolly!
Early on, when I knew there were problems here, I went directly to TOS because I knew they would be behaving like children because of the snafu here...idiots posted a link to find my way home. I was back in business right away....
To: general_re; diotima
BUMP Finally in... I emailed my chaper the yahoo grop link. When there I located this link, but when I went to mail it out my Hotmail account said that I had exceeded my number of emails. Poopy old Hotmail! Hope everyone makes it over...

Hey, I'm very sorry if I somehow offended you. One of my life's goals is to take a long vacation in Australia and New Zealand.
That's the problem with the Internet, you can't see people's faces.

ahem... let me bring you up to date on Australian vernacular. When flying from Sydney to Perth, you don't see "nothing", you see "Wall-to-wall of bugger-all".
Lesson concludes :-)

I have no idea what any of it means.... folk came in and started postin' on an old thread.
To: KangarooJacqui
I'm very sorry, I do apologize, because I think you're a fine Australian, and I'm a typical big-mouthed idiot Texan. Apology accepted?
