I've always knew that you can skip gyms but I've never did it because I would most likely forget about the gym and then get frustrated on why I can't seem to go and defeat the elite four

I just do the Gyms in order depending on the levels of my Pokemon. Some gyms are higher level than others, so before I challenge those, I make sure to raise my Pokemon. So you could say that I do them in order.

I don't remember doing it, but I feel like I have in one of the older games.
Silver, maybe?

I've done that only once and it was on Pokemon Diamond. I totally went loco when I found out I have one badge left and I was at the Elite Four pokemon center...

I did skip Maylene and go straight on to Crasher Wake, because my Pokémon weren't strong enough for Maylene (I had just caught a Houndour to deal with her Lucario, but he was still at a relatively low level D:<) and so the walk to Pastoria and the Gym battle really helped me level up. Other than that...no, I don't think I've ever skipped a gym. Except in Viridian City in Blue, Yellow and LeafGreen, but you kinda had to do that. ;)

Like most people, I didn't know that this was possible in Pokemon Diamond, Pearl or Platinum. Even if I did, I probably wouldn't have done it because I think that they make the gyms in a certain order to give us a challenge and make sure we don't miss certain important items or events.

No. I never noticed that. I kinda thought it's like the gyms in R/S/E where you need to beat the gym leader to get things happening.

Well, I don't do, although I once skipped Sabrina and Brawly in FireRed and Tuby respectively. Brawly becasue he is overleveled. Sabrina, well, XD.

I never knew that you could skip the Pokemon gyms, but no, I never did skip them because they were so easy.
