It is a credit to the success of FR that we run into traffic issues and slow downs on debates. I will continue to come here for updates. However a back up plan may be to use twitter and end with #FR so tha twe can search by Free Republic tweeters. Just a thought.
Jim thanks for all your work on this site!
There’s a free republic Facebook group. I’ve been posting there during debates.
It seems to work faster when your not logged in.
Really
Try it.
It works for those who mostly read.
DRINK!
FR on Facebook is where I’m going. Twitter is too limiting.
There are no issues on FreeRepublic! None! :)
Heh heh heh ... thanks, Bob.
So is FR already on Twitter? I can’t find it..or free republic or freerepublic.
I prefer the yahoo group as a backup.
it collects less personal data. (or at least is less obvious)
Obama just announced he’s only going to stand there and scowl tonight so that should cut down on the traffic.
I don’t use facebook. Am I the only one left?
Yep, I’ve used them before, still have my Yahoo group subscription.
Facebook has faster reloads and does most on the fly (no having to push reload every time). Very desirable in a live thread.
Sadly, and as much as I love it here, this site is built with 1995-esque technology, and can’t keep up with today’s bandwidth demands. I won’t even both trying to look in tonight.
Truly, this whole site is dated, and could use a face lift.
Read their EULA . . . Facebutt is EVIL !
seriesly
We may be the only two on regular FR tonight, lol
Nope, you’re not. I don’t do Facebook, nor Twitter.
I don’t know if anyone else is having issues, but FR has already slowed down greatly for me, and keeps timing out. I’ve been trying to post to this thread for 15 minutes.
I guess tonight I’ll check out gopbriefing room’s live thread, like before. Also, a Freeper said the Daily Caller has a good one for debates and the like.
Thanks for bringing that up! It’s been a fun one on Facebook, and I’m sure that someone will open the discussion!
Me, if no one else does. LOL!
No, you’re not the only one left not on FB....I’m not on it either. Guess we’re left out, as I see FR is already coming to a crawl =(
