Title: Skins says "hello" to us
Post by: franksolich on May 19, 2012, 10:28:10 AM: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10131353

Oh my.

I never paid attention to the Announcements forum on Skins's island, and it's quite interesting.

This, from April:

Say hello to our new MIR Team!

The job of the Malicious Intruder Removal Team is to ban people who join DU with the intent to disrupt. MIR Team members are volunteers, and they serve for a three-month term. During each term, we try to have half new members and half returning members.

If you are a member of the MIR Team, you should have access to the access-restricted Malicious Intruder Removal Forum. It should appear as a red folder on your Forums & Groups page, and in the left column of any page (if you view DU in "Standard" mode).

Thank you to everyone who volunteered!

Please notice how carefully my fellow alum crafts his words--"to ban people.....with the intention to disrupt."

Well, that takes care of trolls, who intend to disrupt.

It however excludes moles, who intend to blend in.

He should be proud.

I'm very happy I don't have that pack, with their torches and pitchforks, going after my mole.

They're going after only trolls.

Moles and trolls are fine, but what we need now the most are seminoles (minimum 1/32nd).

Post by: FlaGator on May 19, 2012, 05:41:29 PM: One wonders how many honest to goodness democrats have been banned as disruptors simply because their views weren't as 'out there' as the average DUer. I would be willing to bet that more tombstones have been given to liberals who just happened not to agree on an issue or two than to actual disruptors.

Deniability has to be plausible.

16. Why bother with nazi sites like (censored) when Faux News is still up?

Makes no sense what the idiots want to do there. Let them masturbate to posts here on DU all they want.

Yes, I mean you, Bill O'Reilly.

Never, ever has that or will it ever happen. Especially in your little picture threads. :puke:

Their picture threads make me want to blow my brains out. I've seen prettier people at Walmart.
