Alas, I missed the rise and fall of "AngryRanger" on the board, but I wanted to pass along this (heavily edited) little nugget of joy which Amy found in her inbox. Wow, and we're rude? Especially when the impotent little windsock is cursing the SISTER of the guy who banned him in the first place. I guess we can expect nothing less from a freak. Freak! Freak! Freak! Freak! Sorry, got distracted. I wonder why he keeps coming by if we are so rude? Does he secretly love us? I think so. I mean, this is the sixth time we've banned him. Why are you banned, Michael? 1) flaming 2) trolling 3) stalking/harassment 4) offensive behavior 5) blatant idiocy 6) we just don't like you I've banned every IP I have for you, which is quite a few. I'm sure you'll be back, but I just wanted to let you know. Part of me thinks you have to be putting us on, because nobody can be as dumb as you. Sadly, every time you come by I become more convinced you are on the level. Anyway, just so everyone knows, your name is apparently MICHAEL BRAUNSTEIN and the e-mail account you used was sazergorbion@yahoo.com. I am IN NO WAY encouraging people to abuse you, spam your inbox, and sign you up for incredibly rude mass mailings. But y'know, I can't stop them. See ya 'round!

I WAS wondering why you guys seemed to be picking on Michael. Other then being childish I didn't see anything wrong with his messages. Now I see.

You don't know the half of it. I got a similar e-mail a while ago as well. He's not a nice person.

That's okay. I just reported him to Yahoo for harassment. Nothing may come of it...but it makes me feel beter.

Stuart, I understand completely why you were wondering. He hadn't really gone off on his tangents this time, but that's only because we have been banning him rather quickly lately. At this point, I'm just banning him on sight, because he keeps coming around without even asking or apologizing for ANYTHING (not that it would make a difference).
This guy has been trolling us for about a year or so. We ban him and he comes back, thinking we won't figure out it's him. He has flamed at least 5 members that I can think of right off the bat, even after we warned him. And you can see the level of his discourse.
Personally, I WELCOME younger members and have no personal objection to discussions of things like POWER RANGERS. "Michael" there is one of the very few people who is not welcome back here at all, except to be the subject of ridicule.

The funny thing was when he flamed me. You see what a huge Power Rangers mark he is? He asked, under I believe his third guise, which Sentai Show was best. I repiled Power Rangers in a joshing fashion, as I knew very little about Sentai then. He went on some tangent telling me to shut up, blah, blah, blah. Amy and Chris quickly smote the little feller.

Nasty, nasty, small, little troll. My picture on the left is from the film THE BRAIN THAT WOULDN'T DIE. Obviously Michael Braunstein's head contains THE BRAIN THAT NEVER LIVED. Mikey, if you're reading this, I've got great news for ya! They're holding auditions for the upcoming remake of Tod Browning's 1932 classic, FREAKS. "Freak, freak, freak went the trolly. Zing, Zing, Zing boy he smells." ~ Flame this, you nitwit.

Yeah,Chris,the little schmuck has alot to learn to say the least.Funny,how the anonymity afforded by the Internet fools such as ol' Michael there into thinking of himself as 10 feet tall,bulletproof&invisible ain't it.If he were old enough,I'd ask him if his favorite breakfast cereal was(you guessed it!)-FREAKIES!!! ''YUKE,MEGARO!!!''

Oh, and I think you give him way to much credit. I don't think he has a mental defect. He just seems to be an over indulged, anti-social, bratty, immature little man.

Am I giving him too much credit? I really don't think so. I'm not giving him a free pass to be obnoxious by any means and I will enjoy berating him until I feel it isn't appropriate. However, I find his attitude shifts (Power Rangers sucks! Power Rangers is my favorite show ever!) to be very bizarre. You read the e-mails posted on RangerBoard and the other threads (I'll post them if you guys insist) are filled with really vile if totally ineffective insults. This comes after his identity is outed.
I really don't know what to make of him. He could very well have some sort of problem. He could also be someone who is actually reasonably intelligent who takes on an attitude to get attention. I mean, you saw some of what he wrote and it *does* sound like it could be irony. Or (and I lean towards this myself) he really is just that maladjusted and stupid.
The world...may never know.

No, I wasn't implying that you were exscusing his behavior. What I was trying to say, is his boorish behavior isn't the result of any mental defect. He seems like a spoiled rotten little jerk who is used to Mommy and Daddy letting him act like a big man by using language that would make Richard Pryor proud. He is just one of those little internet tough guys. He has no worry about reprisals from people over the internet, but probably walks away when confronted with real people that could stomp a mudhole in him and walk it dry. I too find the irony of his stance. He comes here and says things like Kikaida suck, and that Power Rangers is the best ever. He then goes on to lambast PR fans for not liking Sentai. I remember when he blasted me for saying Power Rangers was the best Sentai show. You know, he is just a litle toughie. I think he thrives on the drama, but can't figure out why some don't like profanity laced tirades. Mommy and Daddy obviously don't put him in check, hell my kids can tell you what sop tastes like.(My son quit lying about his school work) That little doofus can certainly use a good dose of Irish Spring, or a good old fashioned ass whuppin.

The good news is that no matter what username, IP or email address he tries, he can be quickly banned and added to spam lists so no one has to endure his nonsense. In the end, the simpleton is irrelevant.

I'm not entirely sure what I have is a troll, but he seems like a second cousin. Ugh.
