Favored Free Republic posters become moderators

MOD SQUAD

Clarence Williams, Peggy Lipton, Michael Cole, and Tige Andrews in the classic '60s show

JUST WHAT would happen if Free Republic's much criticized moderators handed over the reins to ordinary posters? Well, thanks to our investigators, you can judge for yourselves. In a bizarre experiment last year, members of the elite FR Advisory Board were invited to become "Moderators By Proxy".

Instead of blindly banning posters and zapping threads willy nilly as they usually do, mods instead asked FAB members to tell them how to handle the situation. The results are interesting and often led to bickering and in-fighting between the posters.

We are exclusively sharing the secret experiment with our readers by releasing threads obtained by FRS investigators. (Please note many of the links within the threads do not work so you will have to hit the "back" button to return to this page.)
