I think they're just constant now. Someone in the thread a while back said they used to be quarterly and technically still are, but whereas they used to meet their goal in a couple of weeks, now it takes almost the entire three months to meet it, so the Freepathons are just always happening now.

Use the anger. Use it.
Keep in mind this is babby's first data science project but this freepathon I'll have be able to scrape the full quarter. So far:


Last quarter, which I only have partial data, it ran up to Dec 9 and JR had to add the monthlies in order to declare victory early.

I guess I can kind of get the allure to running a grift like this: just host a forum for geriatrics to rub themselves raw about how great and patriotic the politician they like for that election cycle is and watch the money roll in. IIRC they still have to manually create paragraphs with HTML tags when they post, so clearly all the money they get isn't going towards improving the user experience of the people that actually generate JR's income. It just seems to go towards hosting and general maintenance of the site which is really a minimal time investment if you know what you're doing and stay on top of it.

Which is why I'm curious about JimRob's current status- the last photos I saw of him were a decade ago and he looked like death. It'd be very easy to pull a Weekend at Bernie's through the internet.

Oh yeah, definitely. I wonder how many freepers personally know the family and post regularly. The Robinson clan would have a vested interest in not announcing the death so the grift can keep going but the more people involved in the social circle outside of them could easily post about his passing. I honestly don't think it matters if he passes at least as far as the short term. His son can just say "welp, dad is dead but I will keep the site up" and then the money just goes directly into his pocket. Longer term freepers will die off since they're old and the younger crowds will get started on their rightwing brainwashing on sites that have a more modern browsing experience.

If JR is smart he'll bump up his targets to bilk more money out of freepers, especially considering he can point to Trump's ban from social media.

:freep: Gosh folks, we need freerepublic.com now more than ever. The DEEP STATE is banning conservatives left and right and this is putting an increased strain on John from having to ward off ANTIFA CHICOM SUPERSOLDIER HACKERS from breaching our firewall perimeter. I hate to do this but we're raising our fundraising targets to $100,000 a quarter. Please, if you can, donate just an extra $5 per month or a one time payment of any extra money you get in your social security checks.
