Auto-ban, a technological breakthrough, but requires more donations!

Heavy Fire! Under a Coordinated Denial of Service Attack

I assume that means five cat ladies tried to download a photo of George W. Bush at the same time and brought the trusty Packard-Bell 486SX server to its knees.

I coined the term "Picturelickers" for the Bush Jr. worshipers of the time (remember the Daily Devotional photo threads?). They didn't like it much.

Probably one of the reasons I was banned in '06, heh.

I hate to step on your toes but John & Jim run simple scripts from some old Linux boxes that makeup the many BS posts that people read. Sorry to let you down about an awkward website that needs cash revenues on a continuous basis.

They also were remarkably humorless if anyone made a double-entendre about BushPorn over there. Very sensitive about it, they were.

You raise an interesting point. Just how many real members are over there and how much are their regular donors chipping in (as opposed to what they advertise during the Griftathons)?

I suspect it is scammier than even the most cynical antifreepers realize.

There always seems to be a Texan that completes the Griftathon just in the nick of tyme based on the arbitrary deadlines. This scam appeared in the early 2000's as though GWBush (worst US President, in all of US history and most STOOPID leader ever to be a major power broker) ensured some maejiical pixie dust upon FR.

He was RimJob's own Marlboro Man.

I can't recall the last time anyone in a supposed position to know details about the Griftathons made any reference to the Mystery Benefactor.

Or was the Mystery Benefactor just a way to shut down a freepathon before reaching its stated goal? We have no idea how much or how little RimJob has taken in on his various griftathon schemes over the years. They fine-tuned and varied their basic fundraising themes over the years but they seem to have settled back into a few familiar lies. Like the alleged problems of the database server which, strangely enough, mostly seem to act up during Griftathons. It's a raging coincidence IMO.

It is not that traffic went up so much.

On a personal note, I donated thousands of bucks in the 1998-2000 tyme frame towards FR. I met with some of FR's best; I even put up some Washington DC protests and created action in Southern California. It was kinda phun. But as I look back it was all a waste of tyme and money.

Jim Rob was agin' him before he was for him.

So, it doesn't matter if he snorted coke as a youth? It was a long time ago, a youthful indiscretion? Kinda like people who frequented sneakeasies during prohibition? Kind of a cute story, eh? Well, how about all the people whose lives have been destroyed by being arrested for the felony of drug possession? What about the millions of people who are rotting away in your filthy drug infested prisons at this very moment?

Well, by God, if you people insist on electing another cokehead as President, you damned well better throw open all the prison cell doors and free every man, woman, and child you're holding on drug charges. And if you're gonna elect another drug felon as President, you'd better rescind each and every one of your unconstitutional drug laws now on the books, including all of your unconstitutional search and seizure laws, and your asset forfeiture laws, and your laws that enable your unconstitutional snooping into our bank accounts and cash transactions. Well, I don't know whether to laugh or cry. You people are sick! Conservatives my ass. You people are nothing but a bunch of non-thinking hypocrits! You're a shame and a disgrace to the Republic!

And, I, for one, am tired of taking orders from cokeheads and felons! Elect another one and I'll tell you what. I'll be ready for war! It'll be time to take up arms and run the filthy lying bastards out!

Let me ask you a direct question: Would you donate any money to FR based on all the data or information you have?

Yeah, I think not.

Scripts or not, they could buy a faster stronger machine for 3K.

But, but, but ..... that would be squandering a whole THREE DAYS of revenue on infrastructure, when there are uneaten breadsticks out there!

They keep pleading poverty, when the money to completely replace everything rolls in once a week.

JohnBoy's probably calling a helicopter limousine service for those trips to San Jose - one that can land in the Olive Garden parking lot.
