Dark Lords of Chaos

Ice Man/AI (Little Rascal, Tasmanian Devil)
This guy was a real asshole. He started out as normal enough, even kind of cool. He ran a local board, and we were all sysops on eachother’s systems. At some point, he was influenced by Dalai Lama, and turned on the rest of us. He logged onto every local BBS he was a sysop on (including mine), and formatted their drives. Then he started his own group called “Anarcky Incorperated” (That’s right folks, they couldn’t even spell their own fucking group name!)

This is what sparked the DLoC/AI war, and caused no end of havoc in the scene, which is probably what Dalai Lama was shooting for in the first place. This idiot let himself be an unwitting instrument of all of it. What a fucking toolthorn. The best part is that after Dalai Lama was done using him to harass the rest of us, he dropped him like a plague-ridden rat carcass.

But that’s not the end of it. This fuckstick actually tried to make a COMEBACK after being soundly thrashed and exiled. When that didn’t work out, he started reporting people who brought warez into town for phreaking.

You would really think that after such antics, this asshole would have been out of the scene forever, wouldn’t you? Well no. After all of that he tried simply changing his handle to something else and coming back. When he was outed and exiled again, he dropped the C64 and got a PC. I’ve heard from guys in the PC BBS scene from back then that he was an asshole there as well.

Mike Maryo, aka Ice Man aka Little Rascal aka Tasmanian Devil was last seen on the web, exploiting his kid’s disability to get traffic to his photography site. It just goes to show that people who were losers and assholes in the scene turned out to be losers and assholes in real life.

Slayer
Rick Wood. This idiot invited Cichlid/DLoC and I to his house to “party, hang out, and copy disks”. He said he had his own place and there would be girls there. So we show up with beer, ready to have some fun, and it turns out he was like 14, lived with his mom, and the “girls” were all 12. What a lamer! He actually asked Cichlid “Dude, you wanna fuck my mom?” as we were leaving. Later would ally himself with Ice Man.
His most famous fuckup was pranking my next-door neighbors 24/7 for three straight weeks because he’d messed up one digit of my phone number. I would sit in my room and hear their phone ringing from across the street and them cursing and screaming about it, all to my amusement, since the neighbors were drunk assholes and I hated them.

Dalai Lama/USSPE
Phil… What an ass. This guy had some tenative connection to USSPE, which was a second-rate couriering group that had some tenative connection to UCF, which was a second-rate cracking group. For this reason, he seemed to think he was a GOD. (In fact, that’s what he called his later Amiga group). The only reason this guy was ever in the scene was to harass people. He and his pathetic little sidekick “Wally Bignut” used to do things like call local sysops and claim to be affiliated with ESI. Then they’d get the sysop to put “ESI Support BBS” on his screens and go out and buy a bunch of Rush CDs or some other nonsense. Later they would manipulate Ice Man into formatting a bunch of BBS’s drives. Phil and Ed contributed nothing to the scene but grief, and I hope they both ended up in some situation that prevents them from harassing people.

Wally Bignut
Ed Fromeijer, Dalai Lama’s little sidekick and toady. I actually worked with this guy’s uncle for a while, and he’d tell me stories about how “Little Ed” would get in trouble for sneaking out at night and putting anti-semitic signs on Drew Vogel’s lawn. What a complete waste of a life this kid was…

Sargent Smith
I used to occasionally “test” questionable BBS users with a mod that made it look like they’d been dropped into sysop mode. Most of them would immediately try to call me voice, and those guys got better access. This assclown actually tried to format my drives, so he got banned.

Blue Falcon
See Dalai Lama, above. It is believed that this was one of his early alter-egos, but it hasn’t been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Moleman
Jay, stole disks from me once. What a dick.

Big Red/TCC
This fucktard couldn’t even READ! He had to have his wife read the messages from the BBS’s to him! Un-fucking-believable… Later formed a group called “The Cool Cats”, which was an enormous piece of shit. Their “logo” was a fucked-up picture of a flying cat with a cigarette in it’s mouth.

Dr. Death
What a stupid asshole. This fucker actually threatened to sue the guys from TSA because Shadow/YWN took his picture from the TSA picnic demo and used it in their rag demo against him.

Phreaky Phreddy
Fucknut couldn’t even phreak, he just liked the handle.

Nimbus
A religious idiot who used to try to start flamewars on The Combat Zone][. I always suspected he was an alias that Jim (NightCrawler) came up with just to piss me off, something that wasn’t that hard to do.

Dalamar
Ice Man’s little sidekick. He used to get on BBSs and talk shit about how big and bad he was and how he was going to DRIVE to everyone’s house and kick their ass. I got sick of hearing it and DROVE to his house to kick his ass. Turns out he was like 10 years old! I told him to stay in school and left. I was seriously pissed, since I wasn’t about to beat up a 10-year-old. But then Longknife/DLoC beat the gnome in Dalamar’s mom’s garden to pieces with a shovel, so we felt vindicated.

Blue Mouser
This guy is only on the lamer list because he tried to burn Hellraiser on a hard-drive trade. Other than that one thing, he was actually really cool. If you’re reading this, Jason, simply drop an email explaining your side of that story, and I’ll take you off the lamer list.
