Don't remember the first one. I only saw nicolas28 on the Alien:Covenant board where he was bitching about Prometheus. TheSolarSailor I did see on a few boards but don't remember his reputation. I'm not sure if nicolas28 posted anywhere other than Alien boards. He liked to tell others how inferior they were and how stupid they were for not liking Prometheus. Yea that's him. I thought he came onboard here in the beginning. What was SolarSailor's deal? |

I thought he came onboard here in the beginning. What was SolarSailor's deal? nicolas28 and igetitfaster were very similar, but nicolas was the one who frequented the Alien-related boards almost exclusively. SolarSailor was often on the X-Men, Star Wars, or Star Trek boards. He was just a downright miserable person. He wasn't always that way, but just turned mean over the years.I remember in the last days of IMDb he kept saying how glad he was that they were shutting the message boards down. That the place was so cruel, mean, etc. that it deserve to implode. I remember asking him if he felt that way why has he stuck around all these years. He loved being miserable. |

Who was this guy and which board was he on? From what I saw on my brief time on "classic" IMDB, Joby Dimms kind of lurked on the superhero movie boards the most. As others said he hated everything related to Marvel, animation, bronies, things of that nature. Claimed to be a veteran and his rants were dressed in such fanaticism that would make Fred Phelps green with envy.
Yes. He was mostly on the superhero movie boards but he was also a regular on a lot of the Disney movie boards I regularly looked at along with SpongeBob and WuzzieWuzzle who were the same person using multiple profiles and would delete their threads when you exposed them for it. The original IMDB boards had some of the worst and annoying trolls around and I received a number of abusive private messages from homophobes for being open about my sexuality and right before it closed down there was one member called OlicityDefender on the Arrow board who sent people private messages threatening to stick forks up their backsides unless they wrote nice things about Olicity. Thankfully this board is moderated and is not like the original IMDB boards.  |

Trolls overran the Video Game board 10 years ago, and the mods did nothing about it at all. Same with the Soapbox from 2014 onwards. Seemingly the only time anything was done was when a particular troll really crossed the line, like MoonMetropolis in 2015 and some guy on the Dawson's Creek board in 2006. Instead they just waited until it got irretrievably out of hand, and then shut the whole thing down. |

We had to spend hours deleting his posts sometimes 'cause the Program Director of the channel didn't have administrator powers to delete his account and didn't know much about forums and when he got the online team to delete his account he joined again and abused everybody over it and put more penis pictures everywhere and when they banned his IP he found another way to come back and brought friends with him. They then flooded the forum one night with really gross pictures of crooked and injured penises and some of them were infected and had blood on them and this went on for months and I will be happy if I never see another penis as long as I live. As bad as the IMDB boards were with some of their trolls I was happy they never had any psychopaths like that. That being said I think the IMDB boards could have been moderated like this board but the people who run the site didn't want to pay people to do it.  |

You've probably heard about Ben_Caesar by now (do a bit of digging around the Soapbox on this forum if you haven't), and his constant behaviour towards others, and his Doxxing yada yada... Okay, that was pretty bad and horrible, but he is far from the worst I ever encountered on IMDb. That dubious honour goes to one ysh227. He was on a lot of the main boards in late 2006 to Easter 2007, posting sick and violent things about molesting children, death threats towards people who reported him, and even put up links to a pedophilia website he claimed he ran. Even now, if you type in his username into Google you'll still find a lot of information about him dating back to that time. He (and his new accounts) were all banned and he dropped off IMDb as quickly as he had arrived, and I never saw any evidence of his return after that time, but that doesn't mean he was ever caught though... I only hope he was. |

NONE of those people have anything on easily the craziest and most dangerous IMDb troll ever. Joshua Ryne Goldberg aka Madotsuki the Dreamer aka moon metroplolis and also had a variety of names on a lot of sites. He was insanely prolific and created notorious personas ranging from white supremacists to Islamic terrorists to transgender activist to you name it. He was responsible foe controversial sub reddits like coon town and "Philosophy of Rape", a subreddit that advocated corrective rape against "whores and feminazis", and offered tips on how to do so without getting caught. He was actually responsible for convincing 2 Islamist's to stage a terrorist attack and providing bomb instructions with the intentions of tipping off the FBI before they acted but both were killed before he could so. He was eventually traced by the FBI and arrested. The guy was on IMDb daily and still had time to post on countless other sites using dozens of handles and personas. I bickered with him many times as did others on IMDb and was one of the last people to do so the day he was arrested. Here's his Wikipedia page. Crazy IMDb troll It's a unsettling read. The stuff I mentioned is only a drop in the bucket of what the kid was doing. |

I knew him from the ysh227 days because he took it upon himself (for whatever reason) to drive that guy off of IMDb. He was known as MetropolisForever then, and followed ysh227 everywhere across IMDb. I think he was also a reg on the Sandbox when it was loaded with pre-teens from 2006 to 2008. He didn't seem to have a life outside of IMDb, because he'd post hundreds of times a day. Eventually he stopped posting on the same boards I frequented, like the Video Game, Sandbox and Soapbox boards (unless of course he changed his name and usual demeanor), and it would be years until I encountered him again. But a few of my friends often came into contact with him, and none of them had anything good to say about him, and this was long before he went completely crazy. According to those who monitored his house in the month leading up to his arrest, he spent so much time on the internet that he never once went outside. He should serve a very, very long time behind bars for all that he did online. |

I remember reading that about the agents watching his home said he hadn't left it in over a month!!! Not even to go to the mailbox or take out the trash or walk the dog or what ever chores you would think parents would give to a guy in his early 20's that lived at home and didn't work or go to school would have. Considering how often he posted on IMDb it's amazing to me he had time to do all that other crazy shit on those other sites. Many people thought and maybe still think he was a female and would defend "her" when sane posters would call him on his crazed vitriolic comments. It's unnerving to think of what else he may have done if not discovered or what he may have done that they never found out.  |

It's unnerving to think of what else he may have done if not discovered or what he may have done that they never found out. He was trying to play one side against the other, in the hope that he'd trigger some sort of uprising, race war or terrorist attack. That's what I believe. It really is horrifying to think how far he had extended himself in order to fulfill that objective of his. Had he not been arrested, he would've eventually succeeded in causing something. He would've had a field day with BlackLivesMatter in 2016, the Presidential Election, and last week's protests in Charlottesville and other places. Makes you wonder just how many others like him there must be that are still out there... |

Yes it's kind of scary thinking there is even one more psycho like Madotsuki out there much less hundreds or thousands. Hopefully he will never be allowed online in any way ever again. |

Wow. That is really messed up. Some people have WAY too much time on their hands and it is quite scary when you think about how many others there could be that are like them. I never saw the members you mentioned but one of my friends was a member of the Gender Studies section of Yahoo Answers when Elliott Rodger was on it and he was writing a lot of hateful things back then and she thought he was a psychopath but Yahoo didn't do anything about him or report him to the authorities. I think more needs to be done about people like that especially on social networking sites 'cause I have heard terrorist groups like ISIS have their own Facebook and Twitter accounts and use them to recruit new members and gloat about killing people. How Facebook and Twitter aren't forced to delete them is beyond me.  W |
