To: Upstate_Red; Jemian You've got to be around here a while to know the tricks of the trade.
You can change the time to your time zone. The signup is GMT; I believe the default for the threads is PDT. But don't worry about that know.
You posted your thread in chat which is positive in that if you had posted in the news forum you would already be on the receiving end of nasty threats. Rule 1 is DO NOT post a vanity on your first day. Comment on existing threads; you can make your newbie status known in reply posts.
I chased off a troll earlier today who came after me with snarky comments challenging facts in a thread I started not knowing that all I was doing was reproducing the article. I ended my reply with ZOT. He came back asking what ZOT meant. He soon found out.
So my advice is read the rules, answer posts, put your personal views up in your FR home page. Some home pages are simple, others are elegant and elaborate.
Keep your real identity to yourself; there are nasty, even evil, people out there who, if you are controversial, will try to ferret you out and expose you. Remember this is a public conservative forum which has prominent national officials as members or who lurk here. Two of the most recent are radio show hosts Mark Levin and Tony Snow, now presidential press secretary. So we play for keeps around here and of necessity protect the forum and ourselves.

A Free Republic If you believe that our nation has been drifting away from Abraham Lincoln's "government of the people", or that our government has deserted our Founding Fathers' vision of a Free Republic as set forth in the Constitution, or that our government has mushroomed completely out of control, or that the so- called free press has been "protecting" us from the ugly truth -- read on. On these pages we hope to bring you news of the nation not only from the mainstream media, but also from lesser known sources - small papers, newsletters, talk shows, government publications, online websites, and gasp, even from conspiracy theorists (sometimes there really are fires beneath all that smoke).
And most importantly, we hope to involve you in the process. If you believe that an informed public is the first step in returning to a Free Republic, and that this is the way to ensure that we remain free, then we hope you will help us make this a useful and active forum. Please join us in seeking out and disseminating the truth. Please join a discussion group in our Forum . Registration is quick, easy, immediate and free. Come tell the world what you think and/or link the world to your homepage or to a link of your choice.
