The GUILD 6-11-2002 Read a good book

[codebreaker]

It's time for a Elvis impersonator baby jumping contest to celebrate (or maybe not..)

[retrokitten]

This pisses me off greatly

LOL! This has to be the line that convinced them! Good work!

Holy schmoly, the Guild is on the Front 'Welcoming' Page of FR!

Well done everone..

[codebreaker]

Does this mean we have to start dressing up now, I better get my seer sucker suit for tomorrow..now that we will be getting the bump in traffic!

It means that when you go to the front page you just click on The Guild and you are here!! No more click, click, click where is the Guild? We have gone legit, babycakes!

Bless you Lodwick!

[retrokitten]

It's a really pretty button, too. Just like us! ;-)

T-

I don't think we should base our financial support of FR upon where The Guild thread is placed. I don't blame you for wishing we were in a different category - so do I, but raising it as an issue of financial leverage makes me uncomfortable. It kinda sounds like "if ya don't do it my way, I'm taking my ball and going home." And realistically, if I were running FR, I think I'd have more things to concern me than where The Guild thread gets placed. Also, I doubt that the financial support of Guilders is so great that threatening withholding of our donations would get much attention.

I know you mean this with the best of intentions, I just will continue my support and keep my ball in the game, so to speak, because there are so many wonderful things about FR that I think are so worthy of my money. Hang in there, baby!

"This thread has more support for our troops and our way of life than any other that I can find on FR."

Well said and well done, Mr. L. and to Mr. R. and the powers that be:

"The arrogance of our own Caligula. "

You sure summed it up so well with that statement, Lod. And congrats on getting us our own button!

IMHO, I think the moderators are trying to build traffic in the General Inerest Section.

I think the Guild is a cornerstone to get people to sample the topic.

So I don't think it is a slight for thr thread to be in the so called 'cheese hole' becuase it is helping build the topic header.

We've gone big time! Even ahead of the FR Radio marker..

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

No more cheesehole complaints because the front page link has made life so much easier.

This is just great.

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

You know what else is so great about this? I have gotten a lot of email from the USS Kennedy asking how to find us on FR because it's been so difficult. Now I can tell them to click on the roses.

Page Six is up for Wednesday, that J-Lo is a busy gal..she's already moved on to Rafe Fiennes from Ben Affleck!

[lodwick]

Thanks again for the beautiful hot link. God bless our Free Republic and all the best that it represents. A wonderful Wednesday to everyone. JL

The GUILD logo looks great up front, just like the Augusta National Insignia for the Masters Golf Tournament on CBS.

It is really distinctive and immediately draws the eye!

I love the new Guild button :)

BTW, I paid my Freeper dues yesterday. Thankyou Free republic!

I never said FR was not a good place.

It kinda sounds like "if ya don't do it my way, I'm taking my ball and going home."

I've been here since 1998, just like you. I've seen this place go thur many changes. I have seen others get more respect and treated better for less than what we are asking. I did not say we should with hold our financial support to FR. I said, we should mention how we feel when we give our donation. If I remember correctly, isn't there a box where you could write in a comment? Also writing Jim a nice note asking him to give the Guild a "Daily Thread" status would be nice.

I'm outta here!
