“Do not post to me” - Repost
Free Republic | 10/06/09 | Admin Moderator

Posted on 10/06/2009 3:55:51 PM PDT by Admin Moderator

We've received many requests from freepers requesting that other freepers not post to them. There are several problems with this.

1. It's impossible for us to enforce.
2. We don't have the time to enforce these requests.
3. We don't have the software to keep track of these requests.
4. Thick skin helps.
5. Ignore the poster, if you don't reply, they won't reply.

Free Republic does not need a bozo filter, bozo filters are for wimps.

Final note: Trolls, troublemakers, disruptors, forum pests, malcontents, RINOs, liberals, stalkers, et al, would continue posting to (harassing) someone after being asked to stop. Conservative FReepers would not.

First thread.

How ‘bout a beer summit?
I heard that fixes everything.

It’s an interesting idea but would not work on FR, the forum is too large. We have too many posters with large followings and large ping lists. It would make it very easy for large cliques to censor anyone that their group doesn’t want on FR.
It would cause more work for us, not less.

“I want everybody to post to me. How can I make them?”

Post an article titled “Do not post to me” and sign your name as Arthur McGowan.

It's not proper FRettiquette to post the name of a member without a courtesy ping!

You are right, that was rude. AG, sorry for picking on you but your thread was a classic on FR!
