HAS NOT YET DONATED TO SKINS'S ISLAND! :hammer:

Can you publish a "Top Ignored List" and "Most Alerted Poster"?
My guess is these two stats would play heavily in a individuals perception on DU.
If they show up on both lists what would that say about their viability to adding to discussion on DU?
Uh.
No

1. We actually have some lists like this.
They are for admins only.
I don't think we want to make them public. But they are quite useful in helping us figure out which people are turning off the most other people.
Uh huh.

DUmmies, like other leftists are very fond of lists. Usually some version of "enemies," "execution," or "hit," of course. :fuelfire:

Sounds like some people are too thin skinned to discuss politics, can you imagine if we were allowed to come out of the closet and post there? I think we'd all be ignored and we would just be talking to each other LOL.

The fact that this unconscionable, self-important neo-fascist not only maintains such information, but admits its existence speaks volumes about not only his quasi-sexual fascination with control, but reminds me of my father who, in my younger years, would fold his belt and snap it a couple of times, just to let me know he had it.
The shitstain is beginning to sound like a textbook paranoid every week.

.....his quasi-sexual fascination with control.....
You know, sir, this is one of the two things that fascinates me the most about my fellow alum.
He's a control freak, but the more he tries to control, the less control he has.
I have no idea why Skins hasn't figured this out; one thinks, given that he and franksolich were both taught by professors from Yale, he in New Haven and I in Lincoln, we'd think a great deal alike on many things.
When I try something and it doesn't work, I chuck it out and try something different.
My fellow alum on the other hand pig-headedly and obstinately tries the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again, as if there's only one way to deal with something, and this has to be the right way.
Sometimes when watching Skins in action, my jaw drops.

Will a character based on Skins find his way into a future storyline?

Hitler had lists, Stalin had lists...all the ungodly little chillin's had list....the more better to disappear you with.

He's making a list..
He's checking it twice..
He's gonna find out who gets pizza'd tonight..
Big Brother is shutting you down.
He tracks you when your posting.
He tracks where you have been.
He'll track where you are going soon,
So you better not let him in.
Even if you pout,
Even if you cry.
Unless you got cash,
Your mole's gonna die.
Big Brother is shutting you down !

Now that I've had some time to consider it, I think the "quasi-sexual fascination with control" remark was a cheap shot on my part. Because I'm conservative, and inherently honest, I have to confess that I more than likely made that crack out of a sense of frustration that I can't simply kick such people in the balls wherever I discover them.
Hence, your fellow alum seems to be quite successful in maintaining a frightening level of control over the island at the moment. Granted, like most far-leftists, he remains stubbornly unaware of the inevitable failure of such incremental authoritarianism, but today, I'm certain he'd take offense at your assertion that he's single-handedly demonstrating the definition of insanity.

Hell, he already has! Skinner reminds me of a cut-rate Trinity (albeit without the latter's single-minded dedication to finishing the task at hand), or a tragically less charismatic Jordan Chase. I could even compare him to Boyd, but I fear doing so would be disrespectful; not to Skinner, mind you, but Boyd, given that Boyd didn't feel the need to amend his behavior to suit his victims.
But seriously, he isn't even original enough to be interesting. People like Frank's fellow alum are a dime a dozen, but are annoyingly prevalent on the web for obvious reasons.
No, I don't believe anybody is particularly interested in writing about an over-educated, underachieving, under-sexed, picayune, megalomaniacal pinhead.

Hey, if the media can't write about Obama, they'd lose 3/4ths of their copy!

Good point. :cheersmate:

LOL! All you have to do is lurk over at DW to know who has landed on Skin's "enemies list". :rotf:

Awh, just go on and go all Don Imus on his ass and say, "No, I don't believe anybody is particularly interested in writing about a nappy headed whore hopper."

Didn't they block that forum from non-registered users? I haven't been to DW in a while.

Yeah- you are right. He's just a run of the mill authoritarian. Would be funny for our entertainment, but that doesn't come cheap in the entertainment industry :)

more proof that the DUchebags would have either their local Gestapo or NKVD memorized...no in muscle memory.
