Let's all communicate to President Trump that he could find a home here.
You go to the URL for the white house https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
walk through the contact info, it takes about 3 minutes.
Ask him to join us.
Come back to this thread and tell us all that's what you did.
He’ll be too busy running his SECOND TERM AS POTUS.
Orange Lion Bad
Bad Viking Kitty, those birds are intended to feed to captured prisoners.
You could at least ping him!
😉
I think with the recent switch (NTT in San Jose closed their datacenter) I think John R. dumped the “owned server hardware” and went with a dedicated server rented from “Linode” in PA. Not 100% sure.
You could “PM”/Ping him...”John Robinson”.
I like your hopium.
Not a good idea. He’d put all his vanities under “news” and the flamers would have a fit.
Good one, hahah
I see your FR personal page says you were banned from FR in 2014 and only allowed back at the end of 2020 (a couple of weeks ago). Who are you to be posting vanities about how JimRob should run his site?
Over the last 20 years a whole bunch of forums like this one have closed, Webcrossing based ones. I was on an American one way back in the 90s, can’t even remember which big media/news company ran it... Might’ve been CNN.
Two more that the old timers here might’ve heard of are the Guardian Unlimited Talk boards (think FR for British hippies) and the BBC talkboards.
Closed comment options are far more common partly because it’s easier to manage the moderation. You try setting up a community talkboard like this one, without using legacy or custom code.
The scalable replacements for old school talkboard forums are so few and far between that one enterprising chap started to set up a replacement for Guardian Talk after its overnight unannounced mothballing, and within four days he had almost completely replicated the Webcrossing look and feel.
No reason why John couldn’t replicate all the functionality of this site, in a completely new codebase, in a couple of weeks, if he needed to.
The real challenge is in functionality. The code would be more attractive if it supported format restrictions (if it were me I’d block posting in raw html - don’t know if it’s vulnerable to malicious code, or if l spam detection, link validation etc. can be built-in).
Then there’s
Tinyurl handling
Spell checking
Mobile friendly / mobile app
A “rich text” edit box
”at” references for reply tagging
Freepers might not want these features, but new talkboards might.
No ads,
All the more reason to license the platform, let Jimrob become a multimillionaire, and we get to keep the original thing in place. Like McDonald’s.
What’s the issue?
That said, my opinion is:
Wow! No wonder we lost. French surrender monkies it sounds like. Tag line ‘in god we trust’ sounds the opposite of run for the hills.
Trump lost? No, he is just one man. WE lost. God has removed His protection of us. Run
This may come off personal and for thst I apologize, but I saw the tag line.
Trump can see who the Brutus’ are right here.
Cowards cheer the General when he rides by on the donkey and yell crucify him when he doesn’t smite the bad pharasees.
Go where you are appreciated Trump...not fully enough appreciated here. Me neither I guess.
That sends it!
You are conveniently overlooking the McDonald’s option, which is to continue as we have done but get a check in the mail for selling the platform. Nothing changes except that someone else carries the big ball and gets the big bux if it works.
NO!
You are appreciated here.
Tony Snow.... I miss him
Wow! No wonder we lost.
~~~~~~~~~~~
We didnt lose. :D
Why would President Trump want to do that?
This site crawls with antifa fakes poorly disguised as patriots.
He could license the platform and have heavy Trumplican moderation if that’s what he wants.
