I don’t like it.

Each election, FR has become clogged, and each time, Mr. Robinson has increased his staff, and equipment to deal with the growth, and the problems.

We too, are responsible for Free Republic, by how we conduct ourselves, and our ability to deal with ill-intentioned visitors.


I’ll give you one down-side. What if my son decided to sign up so he could post on FR, and he couldn’t because you got your wish?

I’d rather he be able to, and fight the trolls that come (and they come all the time. Many of us, including yourself, have been at this for years and years) than have him lose that privilege, just to make it ‘easy’ for me.

First of all, I didn’t make any of the remarks you have above your line.

Secondly, I suggested a freeze for a few weeks because of the slowness and trouble we have had. Tonight is a whole new day of posting fast and having the pager stay on.

There were quite a few getting tired of the slowness and going to other sites so we were losing the words of good freepers. If someone had wanted to be in this fight they would have signed up a long time ago.

It was a mild suggestion for a problem, not an earth shattering wish. If the whole site crashed and burned then none of us would be here.

I’m off to bed now.
