Who is the greatest planeteer of all-time?

You miss talking to Skip? Did anyone ever “talk” to Skip or were they just generally yelled at?

Skip and I had a mutual respect for each other.

I believe it was his "shtick". Very few posters back then, acted here like IRL. Iowanian had overzealous, vulgar attacks (Which I found hilarious), Skip had his attacks on n00bs and rants about Direct TV... redrum had PM's of mass destruction (usually regarding your Mom)....etc. I think there are many more "real" personalities now. And some are still a bit over the top, yet awesome.

Like the warning sez, ya gotta have thick skin.

That's like saying Mahomes is a somewhat decent quarterback. :)

Skip hated me and I hated him right back. While that may have had its origins in the whole MU/KU thing, which of course was far nastier back then than it is now, my biggest problem with him was his constantly shoving his precious, yet obviously useless degree down everybody's throats. Anybody who didn't have one was a mindless serf in Skip's world. Yet he used his to further a career in bolting satellite dishes to their homes. And it really seemed to irritate him when I mentioned that.
