I have received the following email from tpaine, who has offered to take over financial responsibility for LP but is not interested in moderating the site. Be aware that moderation implies control over content and a moderator may also be the target of litigation. (Lawyers tend to latch onto anyone even remotely involved in a situation to see what will stick.) Feel free to discuss this and at the end we would need to take a vote of active posters in good standing. If the site ownership is turned over to tpaine I would end my moderation of the site and cancel the plans to move it to my own server. Message follows: "At this time I would like to make a formal offer to pay the bill for hosting and domain registration, and to assume the liability for lawsuits, -- As 'the owner'. --- However, I have no interest in moderating the site and would hope that someone who could get the approval of at least 75% of the currently active members would take on that job. I would also hope that the site could retain the services of someone like Neil McIver to deal with tech issues. Please post this on the site, seeing that you refuse to allow me to post comments."
Poster Comment: I'll bet this will wipe that smug look off Gatlins face....LOL

#119. To: Fred Mertz (#117)
I joined that place in Oct 1998 or close to that date. I think I joined in Dec '98, -- or was it 97? Senility may be setting in.
I did a quick search showing you were a FR member since Jan 20, 1998. www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1266734/posts If you mouse-over your screen name you'll see it.
I think I joined in Dec '98, -- or was it 97? Senility may be setting in. That's right, I got a webtv box for my birthday in Dec 97, lurked for awhile, then joined JR in his fight against the newspapers over posting articles in full. Here I am, still fighting that same good fight.
He addresses you as 'f**khead' and insults you on other websites. That's incorrect. Get it right, or STFU! It was not tpaine who said that. Booshbot666 posted on 2015-01-11 SOD is lying his azz off, slandering you.
Yeah, I called sysadmin a f**khead. I was singing praise for him earlier. Thanks for clarifying my potty mouth. That stupid old drunk... Think I should ask sysadmin to let me back in to elPee? My timing is impeccable.
#275. To: sysadmin (#272) People calling you names and taunting you for your work here is outrageous. You deserve respect and fair treatment. Many people here and who were here before being banned have no regard for rules, responsibility, or decency when addressing decent posters. It's appalling. SOD posted on 2015-01-11 19:57:29 ET
You sure know how to sweet talk 'em! Yes, it's the perfect moment to request reinstatement. /s Murron gave SOD&sysy hell too.
It seems tpaine's windbaggery got the best of him. What did he think would happen? His LP enemies would remain silent? What a brawl over there. Great entertainment.
I think he has the most votes thus far...from my calibrated-eyeball reading mind. Pericles/Destro/Godwinson is making green cashola his selling point. He must be a Pubbie.
sysadmin already told Pericles he isn't buying anything. Just running it and paying operating costs. Pericles is from another country (I think) and isn't quite grasping the nuance.
These folks like domer fear for their privacy in an elPee transfer. Haven't they heard of Edward Snowden? There is no privacy you meatheads! LOL
The funny part is they love NSA spying, drone bombing, police state big brother, and roadside proctology exams, but they're worried about a Christian Democrat, Destro getting their email address.
I think gomer the homer meant to use the word niggardly... What an idiot! Yes, it is quite entertaining.
You posted: --- Fred never posted that line, although you italicized it, as if he did. Most have (except for sod), - by scuttling away, whining about personal info being exposed. Weird reaction, seeing that no such info will be... We agree.
I find it bizarre than tooC would recommend that marguerite twat. She's nothing but a propagandist.
. Did you notice that Aaron showed up out of nowhere? He's hateful too.
Well, he makes me laugh.
. I liked sven golly's comment too, but i always liked a shit disturber
. Now 2kon is wondering whether tpaine's offer was serious. He's got to be kidding...a drama queen no doubt.
#317. To: TooConservative, sysadmin, All (#315) What I don't understand is why if tpaine dosen't get 75% of the vote the next highest vote getter will be declared the winner. Perhaps I did not read the "rules" of this vote correctly. It was my undrestanding that the winner had to have reached at least 75% of the vote. If that is not the case it is entirely possible that tpaine gets 74% of the vote and the next highest vote getter, the declared winner, only received less than 10% of the vote. That doesn't seem to be rational. domer posted on 2015-01-11 22:36:04 ET
It's Nancy Pelosi election rules.... You've got to vote for it, to see what's in it. The election rules were unclear. Folks might have voted differently, if they understood how the results were going to be tallied.
That fuckhead put his name on the ballot. Where did that come from? Edit: Oops, there I go again...
The best solution is probably for everyone to just come over here.
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name (John 1:12)
I guess you haven't seen A K A Stone in the limelight. It ain't pretty. Edit: He thinks the world is 6,000 years old for starters.
Your calendar is defective, that's all. Days were a lot longer back then, when there was a lot of stuff that hadn't been created yet.
If it's me, I "win" it, bearing in mind that as I have stated numerous times, a vote for continuing with me is actually a vote to seek a new owner more acceptable to the community. sysadmin posted on 2015-01-11 There will be more elections, and the candidates will likely get a lot worse than the current bunch. You better get on the ballot before the Grand Island/SOD/Gatlin/yukon Corporation takes it. The 1%'ers from hell.
And Fred thinks that it is ok to have sex with monkeys. Because we used to be monkeys. He thinks life bursted spontaneously from the mud. Even though this has never been witnesses. Fred Mertz is a flat earth anti science ding bat. Other then being a general pain in the ass at times Fred is ok.
You better quiet down. People are joining this place.
I just pulled the exact quote from his 2nd email on the subject: If 25% of the active posters indicate they do NOT want me as an owner, I'd withdraw my offer. --- tpaine sysadmin posted on 2015-01-11 If this is all there is that supports a 75% threshold on the vote offereing four choices on ownership IMO tpaine is getting hosed. Please understand that I would not vote for him and would likely not re-up or sign onto a site that he owned. If not too much of a hardhsip on you please lift the ban on tpaine and let him speak for himself. Fair is fair. If nothing more the exchange between him and pericles might prove quite entertaining:) domer posted on 2015-01-11 Domer's kicking azz and taking names! He must have a few shots of tequila under his belt. At first sysy said that he'd posted ALL of tpaine's emails, then he found some more but only posted an excerpt. It's like trying to drag testimony out of the NSA.
LOL well he lets us post here. Edit: He thinks the world is 6,000 years old for starters. Well from what I read here, of your posts, I was under the impression you were around back then. So do tell us:)
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name (John 1:12)
Yes, domer is astute in following this. I withdraw all my gomer, homer and domer negative responses. domer is A-okay tonight.
It seems that tpaine said of 25 percent of atvie posters oppose him. That would mean that if there are 100 posters. 26 would have to come out and say they opposed him.
Pericles is inept at this. He should have let the tpaine vote go on without throwing his hat in. Then after tpaine's impossible standard was not met seek a vote.
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name (John 1:12)
Pericles is splitting the vote and watering down tpaine's total. It's like a republican primary, lots of losers who eventually drop out, but screw up the good guys chances before they do. Like Domer says... there's a big difference between a two way, and a four way race. IMO, it's going to end up Status Quo with another election down the road.
That's if there are only two choices, yes tpaine, or no. More candidates (4) suck up needed votes, and make it harder for him to win. They don't need to oppose him, just vote for something else. He needs 75% yes, and that's extremely difficult with four choices.
Just to clarify the record, I received a note today from war. war: I was in an exchange with Chan at the Nest [The People's Forum] and he pulled a *Stone* [aka Pebbles] and edited my comments...I immediately told Robin that her place was no better than LF and asked her to close my account and Chan knows it...
It's nice to see that war is still full of shit. He posted a rant to Robin. She banned him for it. war knows that.
I see no evidence of this as his last comments were deleted by you, which support his claim.
Don't all those folks hang out at 4um, Fred?
war says hey, Willie!

Emphasis mine....
OTOH, tpaine set a 75% approval for both becoming owner and for his moderator so, given how hard it is to get 50% of LP to agree that the sun rises in the east or any other topic, you have to wonder if his offer is serious.

A reading of his statement seems to be a condition after the fact of his ownership not prior to. And it is framed as a policy not as a commitment or promise. Polcies have been known to change. The D&R terrorists hate us because we're free, to vote second party
