Wow the MODS are on the ball! Too bad for freeps!

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

Freepers are being banned faster than they can register. How about a toast for our mods everyone.

I've seen people nuked within 5 posts today. Nothing better to discourage disruptors than making it impossible for them to get to first base.

I must have counted 12 in the last hour or so...including one little troll who came back for more and barely got a post off!

:toast:

Thanks you guys for keeping DU beautiful...or...prettier than it might be....or.....freeperfree anyway :evilgrin:

2. Did you HAVE to use the term "first base"???

Impressive considering I thought DU administration was taking the holiday weekend off.


Is there any way to determine how many active users DU has? You're giving me the impression that thousands of people have regeistered then, ahem... passed on.

6. Skinner posted about this a while back

and Alexa considers us one of the most frequented websites. The actual users logging on daily are in the thousands and I think Skinner stated that unique id's from browsers were in the tens of thousands daily so.

I think freepers must have thought they were taking the weekend off too but I see mods on at all hours of the night (I work long hours so I am logged on long hours browsing in periodically between documents)

I think they said the number of banned users was less than 5K

There are a lot of posters that I have seen come and go from february 01 when I began lurking that have only a few posts (some not even 1000 ) who have been a part of the community and visit periodically but don't post regularly so I suspect the lion's share of posters are here to participate within the vision set for the site..i.e. to OUST Bush.

29. And some of us just read more than we post.....

8. Glad we can help you with your target practice

Probably a good time to remind people to HIT THE ALERT!!!!

[Philostopher]

4. Agreed --

Many thanks to those who voluntarily walk the ragged perimeter of this little gypsy camp.

Edit: okay, it's not so little -- which just makes it harder!

[greatauntoftriplets]

5. DAMN!!!

I have missed them, only sent out one alert today. :shrug:

[Swede]

10. I sent my first alert today.

The freep was gone in sixty seconds.

[greatauntoftriplets]

12. Mine is still here...

..though the individual's post was deleted.

Congrats on "losing your virginity", Swede.

[Swede]

17. Got a cigarette?

[greatauntoftriplets]

19. Uh, no.

How about a nice apple tree log instead?

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

13. NO kidding these guys/ gals are like lightning!

[greatauntoftriplets]

14. LMAO, I have known men like that.

[WilliamPitt]

7. Is there some kind of raid going on.

Been a lotta bodies hitting the floor lately.

:toast:

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

11. Just a bunch of asses that are so embarrassed that no WMD's

have been found and 500 service people are dead and thousands maimed that they have to go to plan B which is "silence those that were right that their emperor has no clothes" After all, if my mentor turned out to be a fraud and a drug addict ( like Limbaugh) who was only versing me in the art of hallucination, I would be angry and want to lash out. :D

[rasputin1952]

24. Always wondered why those candyass cowards...

never joined up anyway. Maybe one of these superintelligent RW'ers could have snooped out some of those WMD's?

Gotta keep tap dancin'.

18. Like that scene in Betelgeuse where he was tap dancing on

that set of teeth to shut it up.

20. Good job, mods!

21. Freeper information and Identification Guide

Cockroaches





COLOR: American cockroaches are reddish brown and have a yellowish margin on the body region behind the head.

HABITAT: American cockroaches generally live in moist areas, but can survive in dry areas if they have access to water. In residential areas, these cockroaches live in basements, crawl spaces, cracks and crevices of porches, foundations, and walkways adjacent to buildings. They feed on a wide variety of plant and animal material.

CONTROL: Due to the large size and slow development of American cockroaches, large infestations of these insects are not common within houses. However, during certain times of the year, these cockroaches may move inside a house from outside sources. Cockroaches may enter houses via sewer connections, under doors, around utility pipes, air ducts, or other openings in the foundation. Exclusion is one way to control this inward movement of cockroaches.Cockroach populations in basements can be reduced by decreasing dampness and applying insecticides in cracks and crevices where there is evidence of cockroach activity (presence of egg cases, dead cockroaches, brown fecal smears).

22. Ah, - those poor silly Freepers.

Excellent work mods!

[Zero Division]

23. What were some of the most amusing freeper comments?

I liked: "Canada is a tick on the back of industrial America."

Good lord, these people have a load of hostility for Canada and parts of Europe. The fact that there are social democracies that are actually successful and not falling into total chaos really bothers the hell out of them, and I must say that I thoroughly enjoy that fact. }(

[Swede]

25. Another was:

America's education downfall is the fault of the teacher's unions.

Thanks for doing such a terrific job today and every day!

[BlueJazz]

28. Yep..Our Mods are the best!!

...and they do it all out of the kindness of their heart...

30. You are not kidding! There has been an infestation and the

mods are lightning fast at dealing with them.
