For us paranoid types, how anonymous and untraceable are our donations?

I’m hoping John and Chris will keep it going.

I really seem to have missed something. What has happened that this whole Mormon thing has blown up??

Some Mormon posted a thread about Joseph Smith being an apostle of Jesus Christ. I'm not sure that that started the whole thing, but it sure brought it to a head. Others more familiar with the situation will be able to answer the question better than I.

Aw, c’mon, the fights are half the fun!

You could give me a break and take over for me. I got breakfast at 12:05 PM. LOL

This forum and its posters have caused ripples in the national pond the effects of which will never be fully appreciated.

Not only in regards to social/political discourse, but the personal lives of many of us have also been positively affected over the years via this website and those we've been brought into contact with via its pages.

Thank you.

Jim is saying if we want it to continue we have to fund it.

Correct. But we have to find an appropriate mechanism to do so. That's the trick. And Jim has to agree, and he is the Boss and has veto power. He is standing fast with the status quo, as is his right.

Running off posters with differing viewpoints has consequences.

From Jim Rob's mission statement:

"Despite the wailing of the liberal trolls and other doom & gloom naysayers, we feel no compelling need to allow them a platform to promote their repugnant and obnoxious propaganda from our forum. Free Republic is not a liberal debating society. We are conservative activists dedicated to defending our rights, defending our constitution, defending our republic and defending our traditional American way of life."

FWIW, I used to contribute but stopped when I felt unwelcome to post here because I was not willing to jump on Sarah Palin’s bandwagon. I have never been anti-Palin, I just want to take my time to explore the field before I make this kind of decision.

But it looks like you are still here....

Don’t listen to this. Keep it simple, a lot of freepers are still on dial up. HTML rules. KISS-Keep it simple stupid. Open source rules.
And some of us regularly post from mobile devices. FR works amazingly well in the default browser on VZW Android, and also quite well in Opera Mobile.

Don’t “F” it up with candy-coated dreck.


Clearly the world is coming to an end.

Here I am agreeing with you

AGAIN in the same decade! LOL.

>>5. When I grew up, it wasn’t polite to ask somebody how much they got paid. Asking for a breakdown of costs lacks class and nobody’s business.

In the American system, financial transparency has been a hallmark of non-profits that seek donations from the public for their operating revenue. While FR is not exactly a non-profit charity, there are considerable similarities, and this explains why many expect similar transparency.

It’s not my thread. The current method is working fine. We’ve never had a problem of reaching our goals and if we’ve ever needed to fund special projects or systems upgrades, the FReepers have always come through.

I have other reasons to avoid going commercial, mainly that it would clamp down on our freedom to post and increase the possibility of being sued.

Other than that, I wouldn’t know what to do with all the money.
