On DU2, mods would delete this. I don't think we need to lower ourselves to their level. The best thing is to ignore them, not go to war with them. If we let them distract us like this, they win. Disruption is their mission.

They will love this thread.

However, the tradition is that Freepers are our main not-so-friendly rivals.

It's probably better to ignore the cave dwellers.

It's what's underfoot. And sometimes you have to clean it off your shoes when it gets muddy.

The etymology is appropriate, too:

dirt (n.)
15c. metathesis of Middle English drit, drytt "mud, dirt, dung" (c.1300), from Old Norse drit, cognate with Old English dritan "to void excrement," from Proto-Germanic *dritanan (cf. Dutch drijten, Old High German trizan).

As I understand it, the owner of the cave is a former coach of Skinner's. I don't remember his motivations exactly, other than to be a pain in the ass to Skinner and later to DU. They are known for stalking individual members here, too. Think of them as the somewhat "smarter" cousins to FR.

They KNOW that it is they who are the primitives (it has been proven year after year) and must make sure to use the word against those that they know are far, far smarter then the CC morans will ever be!

The Admins decided years and years ago that DU was not going to waste its time on flame wars with sites that imagined themselves to be rivals of DU.

It's like mud-wrestling with a pig: you both get dirty, and the pig really likes it. (Thanks to whoever used that chestnut earlier today in another context.)

So why, after the author of the first post deleted his OP, is the sequel (this OP) being allowed to stand?
