In fairness, what’s wrong with having a user account on both boards? I’ve thought about at least lurking over there, if nothing else because there’s some posters there whose writings I’ve liked in the past. It’s good that we’re getting back to conservative principles around here, but it’s possible to take the old “burn her! she’s a witch!” a bit too far. Still, I think some people have gotten an education that the First Amendment doesn’t apply to a private board like this. You want to chill in JimRob’s living room, you play by JimRob’s rules.

The whole reason that WA was created is because Mad Ivan got banned or opused for the 39th time, or something like that, and had a temper tantrum. He created a little site and invited all of his liberal friends who had been bothering us here for so long. Many long time liberal FReepers could not resist the siren call of a site where they can be liberals without conservatives beating up on them. Then some of them keep coming back here to continue to promote their liberal candidate and ideas. Many used to be conservatives. But they've thrown that all away for some liberal schmuck from Brooklyn who can't keep his pants zipped. Over the last few days, they've buzzed over here, a couple at a time, and hurled themselves on the bug zapper.

The reason I post a link to their member profile on WA is to demonstrate that, yet again, the person getting zotted or stirring up trouble, possibly begging for a zot, did indeed come from WA. The pattern has been established and it keeps holding true. Almost every FReeper on the zot list has had an account on WA. That's not the reason that they're being banned, nor should it be, but it does show that pattern of behavior.

Just a reminder, Spiff, that I may be registered over there, but have never lurked or posted.

I liked MadIvan a lot and was on his ping list.

While you may think they are 'the enemy', I do not.

They were almost without exception, to me...very nice, pragmatic Freepers.

It was made clear to me that it was NOT an anti-Freeper site...I take that on faith.

Cheers!
