Your post reminds me of the Twilight Zone episode where the aliens are using a neighborhood's fears to turn them against each other. Not that you're meaning was such but it did remind me of it.

There have always been freepers with stars over here who think they do some great service for the Mother Limbaugh by subverting the board. I happen to know at least one DUer who does the same over there. It doesn't accomplish anything but if it makes them feel important or tricky, more power to them. To be honest, this is like grade-school psychology. Billy tells Jane that Tommy doesn't like Angela so Jane tells Tommy and Tommy hits Angela so Angela makes friends with Billy which is what Billy wanted to begin with.

Nearly everyone here is honestly trying to convey their thoughts and opinions on various subjects. Sure we can pull a McCarthy and blacklist suspected freepers, but what good would that do? For every real freeper you nail, a dozen good DUers are erroneously trashed.

Once again, I'm not suggesting that you, specifically, want to do this. I'm just stating where it all leads to once we move down that road.
