Vanity Post on Vanity Posts, Duplicate Posts, Trash Posts, Commie Propaganda, etc., Vol V, No. 1
Free Republic ^ | 1/26/02 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 01/28/2002 9:45:37 AM PST by Admin Moderator

Way too many vanity threads lately. And way too much trash being posted. Please try to stay on topic (politics). Also, please do a search on a significant word from the title of your article before posting. This will reduce the number of duplicates. And, along these same lines, please use the original titles on your article posts. Do NOT edit the titles. Do NOT use "My Title" titles. This will also help to reduce the number of duplicates.

And, whatever else you do, please DO NOT post from DEMOCRATS UNDERGROUND (or any other such trashy un-American socialist hangout). Free Republic was intended to be a socialist free zone. We've gone to a heck of a lot of trouble to make it that way. Why in the world would you think we would be interested in having their trash posted here?

And QUIT trashing each other. You know who you are. Knock it off! Way too many flamewars and feuds going on. And, while I'm thinking about it, QUIT trashing our conservative candidates. If you want to criticize someone's position on some policy, have at it. But do not trash or smear the man. That would include Browne, Buchanan, Bush, Keyes, et al, or whomever else may be your favorite trashee (examples listed in alphabetical sequence). The idea is to get more conservatives elected, not to trash the ones you don't like. If you want to trash someone, make it a Democrat. Thank you.

And QUIT dredging up old communist propaganda to smear our conservatives. Sheesh! Whatever else you may think about our guys, they did not hijack airliners full of people and crash them into buildings. No, my friends, not even the dreaded CIA. Anyone who would believe (or even suspect) that crap is no FReeper. I've been pulling this crap whenever I see it and several people have been banned for continuing to post it. I do not want it on Free Republic. Any current FR poster who believes this leftist propaganda, please logoff immediately, send me your resignation via email, and I will delete your account.

Thanks,

Jim

I hope this hasn't been mentioned on the other thread, but what about all these threads bashing Lincoln and supporting the CSA?

That seems to me a class of vanity we could easily do without.

So, is there any chance of these guidelines being applied CONSISTENTLY in the future? I didn't think so.

For crying out loud, Walt, why don't we just re-write history?

I did notice that on the original thread that there were FReepers complaining about daliy "chat" threads
like the Daily Dose, America the Right Way, The Guild, The USO Canteen etc.
Last I read Jim and John were going to add new chat forums,
not discourage people from having friendly discussions that include conservative view points.
Next thing you know some FReepers will be complaining about Radio Free Republic
because Hosts and Callers don't stay on topic 100%

Leave the humorous stuff if you can: We need to vent some steam once in a while.

Seconded on the humor. Life's pretty crappy when you live in NJ.

Please tell me that this would include conservative leaders who happen to be dead like Abraham Lincoln.

May the term "Thread Nazis" be posted if it is used as a compliment?

Besides, there's alot of material that has both politcal value and humor -- politcal cartoons and such.

Enforce? And how do I do that? Delete your posts? Ban your accounts? Why not just ask the posters to cool it?

OIC. Well, there are a few here, of late, who certainly backseat drive like they're user #2. I'm a humble #4481.

Folks who equate the USA with terrorist gangs will get the fullest extent of my contempt, and if that gets me banned so be it.
