Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 50 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
Come Back! We Miss You!
They don’t let me see the numbers (for organizational purposes, I rank just below the guy who scrubs Rob Long’s gold-plated bidet), but we get a lot of visitors to this homepage, who aren’t current members. And a lot of you reading this are actually former Ricochet members.
What I’m about to say is aimed at you.
Normally when we make these pitches, I try to sell people on the virtues of Ricochet. About how our code of conduct allows adults to talk to each other without having to deal with endless scores of sub-literate 12-year-olds spewing anti-Semitic insults at people. About all the smart and fascinating people on Ricochet. About the amazing online community we’ve built here.
But if you’re a former member, you know all that jazz already. I don’t know why you left (you probably had a good reason), but you already know we’ve got one hell of a product here. So we’d like you to come back and give Ricochet another try.
And to entice you to come back in, as part of our 2017 Membership Drive, we’ve got a special offer for returning members: Get two months free when you rejoin as an annual Coolidge member. (You can also join on other tiers, but the special offer is only available on the Coolidge tier.)
We’ve made it really easy. Just go to this link and login using your old member and password. (If you don’t remember the password, there’s a way to reset it.)
What else can I say? You already know what makes Ricochet great. We’d like you to come back.
Will you be part of our community again?

Okay, okay – I’ll give it another go.
Had I known about the bidet I would have skipped that wedding and attended your meet-up last fall.
I don’t have much time here as I used to either, but something keeps bringing me back. I hope to meet some of the folks on here some day, plus, it has given me the chance to have a couple of the Ricochetti on my podcast.
Though I am pretty busy with my son and work, I am still grateful for this place. For some reason, the Cheers TV show theme song just ran through my mind.

That’s hysterical, but I didn’t get it until last December, so you can not carry that regret around with you.
Hi, guys. Welcome back, all.
It’s terrific to see those of you coming back!! Both wonderful posters and great commenters! I look forward to greeting you on one post or another! Yay!
There is nothing like Ricochet on the internet. Not just political discussion, but all kinds of fun and meaningful topics. I tried to talk a writer into trying it out while I was on hiatus as a member. I don’t think he joined unless he is using an alias I don’t recognize. It is worthy of support. Now if I can just control the urge to comment on everything and Ricochet responsibly. It’s good to be back.
I’m off and on here, but having come back, I too wondered where you were, Katie.
You didn’t tell me it had to be an annual membership, you rat muthuh…you tricked me!
Wazzup!!!
If we work hard, maybe it’ll go back to what it was!
I’m glad you’re back, Spin.
Don’t spoil it.
What’s the old joke? How can I miss you if you won’t go away?
Already spoiled…
I came back after lunch.
I might need to update my photo, however. I think this one is at least 10 years old.
Don’t worry about it. Mine’s older.
