Outing Famous Freepers
I was just browsing through the blackboxvoting.org forums. Among the genuine posters are some true clowns spreading disinformation and disrupting serious discussion. It would actually be funny if these guys weren't such psychologically disturbed individuals. But what do you expect from dittoheads?

I thought I'd start a thread where DUers could post the names of the most notorious freepers of all time, along with their transgressions.

Personally, I would like to nominate "Auditors", or any variation of that name, for gleefully spreading the crap about CyberNet. He's actually on the blackboxvoting.org forums, but I'm sure he tried to carry his mischief over to DU.

Any other nominations?

2. I think Freeper labeling is far too common.
From the DU rules page.

Do not publicly accuse another member of this message board of being a disruptor, troll, conservative, Republican, or FReeper. Do not try to come up with cute ways of skirting around the spirit of this rule. If you think someone is a disruptor, click the "Alert" link below their post so the moderators can deal with it. Unfortunately, it has become all too common for members of this message board to label anyone with a slightly different point of view as a disruptor. We disapprove of this behavior because its intent is to stifle discussion, enforce a particular "party line," and pre-emptively label a particular point of view as inappropriate or unwelcome. This makes thoughtful and open debate virtually impossible.

Democratic Underground is a "big tent" message board which welcomes a broad range of progressive opinions. As such, you are likely to disagree strongly with many of the comments you see expressed here. Please do not take these differences of opinion personally. The simple fact that someone disagrees with you does not give you the right to lash out and break the rules of this message board. A thick skin is usually required to participate on this or any message board."
