I vaguely remember him. I used to post back in 2005-06 and remember people bitching about him... but I somewhat disappeared for a few years and when I came back POOF.... gone. I wish I knew more about this infamous poster

I wish I knew more about this infamous poster I think he single handedly gave Jetsowner a black eye throughout the internet hockey community a few years back by antagonizing forum members in several cities including, but not limited to Vancouver, Winnipeg, Pittsburgh, Chicago, and several others.

Throughout the years, approximately how many members have been removed? A few ones that I recall having gotten the boot in the last year are: frankcostanza Albert bruinsfan
For the longtimers; whom did you consider was the most frustrating/insane poster? What do you guys consider the most explosive incident? (the largest one since I've been a member seemed to be the 99% adventure) What about the best/funniest posts that you recall? Maybe start a ROTJ history thread where some of you can share some memories from years past, that newer members can read, and get a laugh at?

frankcostanza was hilarioius!
I didn't realize he had gotten the boot actually, I never knew him to post anything bad... he was just not himself because he was so caught up working on "The Pensky File"!

I though he was liked on these boards.

Blackthorne was a little unhinged. I liked his enthusiasm, but he seemed to hate anything that wasn't directly connected to the Jets - that includes the Moose, the Bombers and anyone who questioned him about anything, ever.

Blackthorne was the most dedicated and passionate Jetsowner forum member ever to grace these forums. Only he was mentally unstable, and did more harm than good. He now goes by the name "Commander1" on the Winnipeg Free Press comments forums. Blackthorne had a big heart, and wanted the Jets to return. Only problem is he went crazy. It's a shame, really. I'm surprised he didn't set up a new username on here.

He likes the Bombers. Hey just had an unhealthy dislike for the Manitoba Moose.
