Brace yourself.

I even have a Master's Degree.

Wow, Jim and the Admins must be busy. Thanks for helping out... ???

Years ago, before the moderators, Jim appointed us all as "caretakers" of the forum. He stated he couldn't do it himself. He asked that we all do our best to abide, and ask others to abide, by the posted rules. And to use some common sense when posting.

Part of the problem is that needed topics are not present.

I will give one example: "environmentalism/environmentalists". Or maybe another: "global warming".

One can argue that nny post relating to these topics is automatically misplaced so long as FR persists in not opening a topic for them.

Why has JR resisted correcting this obvious deficiency? Darned if I know.

Child Abuse, Spousal Abuse, Elder Abuse, and now Topic Abuse....

"Hey, bring that Topic over here and I'll slap it around a bit....

Don't the topicalists run Abuse Topic Centers in major cities to help out topics that have been victims of domestic abuse? Me thinks we need legislation to deal with this problem!

[Sweet_Sunflower29]

Ok...ya' got me.

I need some clairity-- Just for the record, does this one fall into the usual "ingore-this-thread" catagory??

[Tall_Texan]

Simply rub "Topic Abuse"(tm) into the skin and feel the burning sensation. Use as needed to abuse topics. Do not abuse more than twice a day without the advice of your doctor.

Yes, I'm deeply saddened and concerned about the problem of Topic Abuse. Saddened because this thread failed so miserably at building bipartisan support for Topic Abuse legislation. Saddened because our senior citizens are still without a Prescription Topic plan. And most of all I'm saddened that our children will be left behind by the current thread's goal of Topic Relief for the wealthiest posters of this FreeRepublic....

Can someone add topics to any thread? I always thought only the original threads poster could.

Yes, you can. You click on the hyperlink that says "Click to Add Topic," it's the one next to the topics and keywords.

R U an admin moderator that came out as xm, or just wanted to vent?

Just venting. But you never know. Maybe I'm just tricking my enemies into exposing themselves on this thread, so I can ban them all. Zot! Zot! Zot! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!

[DBtoo]

I do the same like you. I don't click on topics, I look at the latest posts.

[Young Rhino]

Does this constitute abuse of the Topic Abuse thread?

Gay hip hop a.k.a. Rainbow Flava....ROTFL.

[hobbes1]

If topic abuse is getting out of hand....

Would self abuse be getting in hand ?

[OPS4]

So lets have classes on how to post, so we can all be politicaly correct non-egocentrics, or maybe we should pick the corn out of the pig s**t.

Ops4 God Bless America!
