“Does this mean you’re accepting the challenge of developing the list of Alpha Freepers?”
No, unlike the thread from 10+ years ago, no one is keeping score. I’m not sure anyone was keeping score back then either. It is interesting how FR has changed.
When this question was asked many years ago there were around 5000 registered users. Now we have over 300,000. Things have changed a lot yet, except for the fact that there are so many more names submitted, this thread is very similar to the old thread.
I am proud of Free Republic for that.
And to reiterate, this is not an attempt to collect a list of “Alpha Freepers” what ever the hell that means.

***The term was once the first thing defined in the lexicon, but batter removed it from the 2008 lexicon... I wonder why?
