It's Compliment Weekend at FR!

Given the carping and nasty nature of FR as of late, I thought it might be a good time to see the more civil and gracious side of participants. Here is a thread for just that purpose – to edify, encourage, and thank.

Ever wanted to thank that unsung FR hero? Agree or disagree, why not tell JohnHuang2 or Registered how much you appreciate their skills. And can you imagine the many hours Alamo-Girl puts into her work? Perhaps you appreciate how well the folks over at Word For The Day wield their words. Or maybe you just want to tell WIMom and her gang that you’re sorry for all your unkind words about the recent Freepathon ads, and thank her for all her hard work on that. Maybe you are an FR Radio fan. Well, you get the idea.

What this thread is NOT for: complaints against the management, flaming those you disagree with, bashing the current administration, leaving your opus, whinning about someone being banned, criticizing FR spelling, grammar, or sentence structure, calling out newbies (unless they are disrupting this thread, of course), shilling for your candidacy, carping about a particular regular thread. Well, you get the idea.

Freep on…..

P.S. No, I’m not fishing for compliments. I’ve already been called every name in the book here on FR, and “toothless hag” is still my personal favorite.

And a 'you're welcome' and a God's blessings to you, as well

[Gabz]

You are among those people I should not have forgotten to mention.

Your work during the FReepathons is just outstanding.

I don't run into you often, other than that - but you are never forgotten!!!

[Gabz]

I don't believe I have ever posted to you before.

But your posts are just another reason i can not do with out FR!!!!

[Gabz]

My dear Grampa,

If anyone deserves a personal compliment from me, it has to be you. Even if you put me in time out during the FReepathon!!!

If it weren't for your direction I would never have been able to do any of the graphic things I try to do during the FReepathons. In fact, if it weren't for you - I probably still wouldn't be able to do anything when it comes to dealing with graphics on FR!!

But beyond your assistance in the html category - I owe you major thanks for many of your insightful thoughts. You are a voice of reason when so often I am receiving only the voice of extreme.

thank you Grampa!!!

Thanks Gabz! See you next FReepathon!

I hadn't a clue that so much discord was taking place here on FR; I guess I need to spend more time here. Thanks Oldfriend for mentioning us CA FReepers and our work FReeping Condit.

I found FR in a search for those who would stand w/ me and my folks against this creep last summer. Imagine my glee when I found Jim Robinson and Saundra Duffy in my home town of Modesto, and learned how to FReep! Protesting as a concervative; who'd of thunk it?

I SO appeciate the lessons from my fellow FReepers; most who came from outside our district to FReep Scary Gary.

Jim Rob ~ Fearless leader ~ Super Flag, and who's presence gives gobs of confidence.

Saundra Duffy ~ Fearless warrior ~ cuts the enemy to the heart.

CounterCounterCulture ~ Cleaver ~ COOL ~ Charm,(exellent signs).

Cali5 ~ Huge voice ~ huge heart ~ huge impression ~ infinite energy.

mtngrl and Cheney Chick ~ good looks ~ good signs ~ good pics

atbay ~ No fear ~ gets right in the face of evil.

And my local FReeper buds~

DiverDave ~ Quiet, but deadly ~ ever present; ALWAYS present.

ontherightside ~ loud voice to match my own ~ bravery that can't be beat.

HDrider and Deb ~ Fellow doggie lovers ~ both look TOO cool on their Harleys! He on his; her on hers.

We had an incredible FReeping year here in Modesto; so many FReepers and Lurkers drove our goal home; too many to name, so sorry if I didn't include you. We FReeped the Creep, and Scary Gary will evaporate out of our political system. HOORAH! Thanks to all who helped, and to all of you FReepers who encouraged us, and kept us pumped up.

Peace and Happiness. Pattie

awww!! Thank you

[Genesis defender]

A big thanks to WIMom for helping me with my resume while I was looking for work (now am looking again). She gave me some good tips!

[Cincinatus' Wife]

You've added so much to inform and provoke thought PD. Thank you and all the others for so much passion and truth.

[RnMomof7]

Have a blessed Sunday

Since AFVetGal pinged me to this thread,it's only right that I add her to the Honor Roll. She taught me how to post my first and only html thing(sorry I forgot how already).

[Grampa Dave]

It makes Grampa so proud/happy to see the growth of his grand daughter Gabz on Free Republic.

Remember, this is our secret and we don't tell my Grand Daughter who gets jealous when others adopt me as their grampa.

Seriously, you do such a great job on the thons, and your html skills are now past mine. You are a great asset to Free Republic.

When, you see and hear the voices of the extreme, you have to ask a simple question. Why are they being so extreme? The answer to that question cuts through the hot rhetoric and exposes them in most cases to be petty bully thugs who can't win in life the normal ways. They never bring anything of value to life.

Have a great summer, and I'm looking forward to working with you and the other great freepers. Behave yourself, so we will not have to have time outs during the next fun fest. :)

[anniegetyourgun]

ROFL! Just like a lib/dem.....arrogant to the end! Glad you're here....

[fight_truth_decay]

I repeat myself..Nature isnt equal..any other thought of creating equality is in a dreamscape...legally,socially. .. ;)

[Turk2]

Nice to see you back.

[Boyd]

Thanks, kristinn. I'll nod to a few of my favorites as well.

[Ditto]

Thank you.

[MeekOneGOP]

Thanks for flying your flag! Finding Texans that AREN'T doing so is like
looking for a needle in a field of haystacks! If they don't fly their flag
you don't know where they're from, lol! Kind of a Catch 22 deal !

[Smile-n-Win]

Thanks to God for creating this wonderful world and letting us enjoy life in it.
Thanks to American Conservatives for being so RIGHT about how we are meant to do so.
Thanks to the U.S. military for making sure we can do so.
Thanks to Mr. Robinson for creating and maintaining this riveting site, which is a very effective way of getting out the RIGHT message.
Thanks to all Freepers for embracing the RIGHT approach and keeping FR so bustling.

...and thanks to anniegetyourgun for this thread, of course! :-)
