I see Cusco has left the building.

Finally. How did that clown sneak under the radar for two years. He was spewing DU tripe left and right.

Low output. We call them 'sleepers'. 10 of his posts were made in November and December, 6 of those today.

Some people just lay low. It's easier to do here than if you were to try and infiltrate DU. They go by their 1,000 post thing over there so you have to be active a little bit to attain that level. But this is less a good indicator, in my opinion. Once someone gets 1,000 posts- suddenly they are not suspect any more and 1,000 posts are fairly easy to attain if you make a lot of innocent one liners.

I like our system better and at least it requires patience on the part of the infiltrator if he is to succeed. The 'find in forum' feature is good too.

That guy there could have easily kept posting if he didn't echo the DU lines on things- like 'Faux news'. Lots of Freepers disagree with the war in Iraq. I mean lots of them. Long time members. This Cusco person just finally lost it I guess. There are others. That is certain. Let's face it- DU is basically an anti-FR site, not a pro-dem site. At any given minute of the day you can go to their forum and always find a thread about 'The Freepers did this' or the 'Freepers say that'. Sad really.
