Where is Tigermegatron Sandiego?

[Tigermegatron]

Scottie arrived on alt.toys.transformers around february 2009. right from the start scottie was creating a bunch of fake user names to troll,flame bait & gang up on members thru cyber bullying tactics. most people who knew how to do NNTP & IP searches did google data trail searches to confirm this was all one guy called scottie. scottie's google data trail revealed he was from the UTC time zone. he was using a IPHONE/touch. he was using a aoie.org internet provider.

apparently the iphone/touch & similar mobile devices is a trolls main tool. because the iphone/touch has software that allows the user to become almost invisible on the internet. the iphone/touch has built in software that has a firewall+a decoder+a scrambler,all this hides the users nntp or IP numbers or scrambles them up. making it impossible for other to get those nntp or ip numbers & throwing them into a IP address look up program. to see where this guy lives,what country,what state,what internet provider he' using. what are his GPS magnitude & longitude coordinates,etc... TROLLS LIKE USING THE IPHONE OR SIMILAR DEVICES BECAUSE THEY CAN CAUSE THE MOST TROUBLE/HARM & BE UN-TRACEABLE.

I & Others called scottie out on why he was using fake newbie names to cyber bully other alt.toys.transformers members. ofcause scottie kept denying all of this. even though most of us had the google/usenet data trail right in front of our faces.

After scottie got accussed of making fake user accounts. scottie increased his fake user account by the hundreds. in the month of february 2011. scottie literally created hundreds of fake user names to harrass members.

in the begginning of scottie's trolling. scottie would just create fake newbie names & try to trick everyone that ethey were newbies. he'd use these fake newbies account/user names to act all naive,then these newbies would get violent quickly. then all the newbies which were one person scottie would team up on one guy & cyber bully him. It got so bad a few of us alt.toys.transformers members thought scottie had some type of multiple personality dis-order. as scottie & all his fake newbie accounts would talk to each other in threads & try to increase the reply counts on threads making these threads seem extremly popular. the theory was,the more replies counts,the more other members would join in the thread discussion.

later on scottie turned his attention to some type of google/usenet re-edditting/hacking software he found & used. he pretended to be me to make others think i was started trouble. some knew it was scottie because his google data trail said he was using a iphone/touch,he was from the utc time zone & he was using a aoie.org internet provider.

scottie tried a few times to send me viruses via my email. scottie even went as far as to put links in his threads that were virus sites. I had to cancel out all my emails,create new ones & hide them. this tigermegatron@aol.com email that i registered with on TFViews no longer exist.

The other option is to grow up yourself and stop being such an easy target for people. It’s not certain people that make fun of others, it’s certain people who get made fun of by *everyone*. If you can avoid being one of those people, you can avoid people messing with you, be it at work, on the internet, or whatever.

I'm sorry Prowl, but this is such a bullshit excuse. And no, that's not how this works. Nobody has the *right* to be an obnoxious asshole to someone else regardless of what they're doing (save for being an obnoxious douce to begin with, but I'll touch on that later). Frankly, I don't care if Tigerdeathymegasaurustron is posting pics of himself wearing ladies underwear over a Starfleet uniform with a giant pink Darth Vader helmet, it doesn't give anyone the right to ridicule him. Period. I'm sorry to get so pissy on this point, but that same bullshit excuse was used against me in high school when I would get ridiculed for being a trekkie. And that was just for shit like wearing a Star Trek shirt. No, I don't mean the uniform, I mean a t shirt like anyone would wear for a band or a sports team. I was not "Making myself a target", the problem was not that I was a Trekkie, the problem was that those people were obnoxious assholes with no self esteem or social skills and the behavior ob people like this is completely intollerable and innappropriate.

Now, I understand that deathy may not have the best rep on the internet, but unless he was trolling someone to begin with, no one has the right to be trolling him. And even if he did troll someone else first, at best this could be regarded as self defense which is a reaaaallly big stretch and really still wouldn't fly with me. Two wrongs don't make a right.

Now, the part of this that I was really objecting to with the Hobbit/criminal thing was the hacker aspect because you just know damned well anyone with enough time to do that is also the same person that creates shit like spyware and malware and viruses and that ranges from annoying to full out criminal and has been referred to as "cyber terrorism". My ultimate point is that these people are among the lowest of the low of the dregs of humanity.

shockwave,thanks for the defense.

Shockwave,what you said,you hit the nail right on the head.

Their are always going to be internet based fans that don't agree with each other. most of the "NORMAL" time,a few un-kind words are exchanced that may last for short periods or lenghty peiods of time. MOST OF THE TIME THIS IS ALL THAT ESCALATES. ONLY MEAN WORDS GET EXCHANGED BACK & FORTH. These are harmless & only involve getting one's feelings hurt.

SCOTTIE,ESCALTED THIS BY TAKING IT TO THE CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR. Using google/usenet software to hack my google accounts. re-edditing the google threads headers & pretending to be me. trying to ruin my image among my fellow members via hacking skills. internet stalking,scottie follows me around on other TF moderated sites like the allspark,TFW2005 & Tries to harrass me their,I alerted mods & his accounts got warnings,then banned. scottie tried to send me virus's thru emails dozens of times. i had pop up malware that i had to reboot my computer to the factory settings using the back up cd's, to get rid of. i also had to use 8 different on-line virus protection scanners to get rid of these pop up viruses. scottie use to post virus links in his alt.toys.transformers threads. ALL THIS THAT SCOTTIE DID,IS CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR.

even though i wasn't opening up any scottie emails. I suspect one of scottie fake user names on alt.toys.transformers sent me a few emails. i thought they were non-scottie fake newbie accounts. then i got pop up spyware/adware on my computer.

these days I create a new google/usenet account then i cancel out the email address. since google never mails it's members any email. i have to hide my email accounts from the transformers sites. everything email i register with on a tf site gets cancelled out. i figure if the email adress is gone,the attacker can't send viruses. AOL allows anyone to create thousands of free newbie accounts without asking any verification questions. you can lie & say your george washington & their is no checking the info,you can even put in fake zip codes & fake birth days

Yeah, and if you can take it in stride and joke around *with* them, then everything'll be cool, but if you take it personally and flip out over someone joshing you, then you've pretty much marked yourself for life.

Ah, but no. Sorry Prowl. I love ya, but no.

There are plenty who will take it beyond "good fun" and make a dominance game of it. You can try to ignore them, and they will not shut the fuck up. If you respond, you give them attention and effectively reward them. Online, all they have to do is derail a couple of threads and they completely upend a conversation.

I know people like this. They are damn well insufferable. There is a guy at the wrestling club/promotion like this. He tries to set it up like it is all in good fun, but he is really looking for a chance to prove that he is the biggest and the baddest...because he cannot leave it in the fucking ring. He is suprisingly popular. But, at least some of that is a function of the fact that he has been around for a while and longevity is important. I generally try to stay out of his way. But, he does not allow it. And no, it is not friendly ribbing. In dogs, you would call it "alpha issues". In a grown-up, you call it bad manners.

(Note: 90% of the guys in local wrestling are just normal folks with a strange hobby. Do not take the above description as being about them.)

And, again, these people will work you last nerve....because they often have little else to do.

I sincerely doubt some twelve-year-old girl is cruising ED seeing if she has a page

I hope not, but you know kids today.....

To put it another way: Do you think TM would be having these issues if he didn't post tl;dr recollections of him throwing a tantrum in a Target because they wouldn't sell him a toy he ended up returning less than a week later? Sometimes, you're just asking for it.

They would find something, somewhere, posted by somebody.

Yeah, TigerMegatron posts at length about foolishness. But, that is *really* not unique to this fandom. His name got picked out of a hat.

And, even his out of bounds behavior at Target is not grounds for an ED page or the level of trolling he describes because it does not really harm anybody who is not part of the transaction.

Not really, when it comes down to it. Deathy is known to overreact at the slightest hint of criticism and to make up lies about people he believes are "attacking" him even if they haven't done anything wrong. (I can find examples of this in the last year if anyone really wants me to.)

trying to ruin my image among my fellow members via hacking skills.

I'm sorry, but you didn't have an image that you hadn't already ruined yourself.

these days I create a new google/usenet account then i cancel out the email address. since google never mails it's members any email. i have to hide my email accounts from the transformers sites. everything email i register with on a tf site gets cancelled out. i figure if the email adress is gone,the attacker can't send viruses.

This doesn't sound like someone who has paranoid delusions?

Except Scottie hasn't been doing any of that! At all! If he's doing anything, he's posting with a name that resembles Tigger's and is posting in a way that mocks him. Which is annoying, and I wish he'd stop, but that's about it.

I’m not saying whether they have the right or not (though frankly, this is the internet. If someone has the right to post themselves doing ridiculous things, then other people have the right to make fun of them for it), I’m just saying that when you do stuff like that, it’s not unreasonable to expect some backlash. This holds true for society on the internet and in real life. There’s a reason the term ‘socially acceptable’ exists, after all.

I'm sorry to get so pissy on this point, but that same bullshit excuse was used against me in high school when I would get ridiculed for being a trekkie. And that was just for shit like wearing a Star Trek shirt. No, I don't mean the uniform, I mean a t shirt like anyone would wear for a band or a sports team.

Hey, you grew up in a Social-Conservatopia, and so did I. Which is why I recognized that wearing a Transformers shirt because I was a fan would be social suicide when I had to spend four years of my life in this environment, which is why I didn’t do that. You know what? I still got my ass relentlessly mocked, pushed around, and stuffed into trashcans and the like. You know why? Because I was a spastic fuckwit with little self-control (and interesting that the people who messed with me like this were basically all the ‘normal’ people. The ones who did well in class, got along well with groups on projects, got invited to all the parties, and so forth. I sincerely doubt they were struggling with low self-esteem or anything like that.) When I got into college, I finally learned how to chill out and not attract too much attention to myself, and lo and behold, no one pays me any mind, despite the fact that my primary hobby was hanging out behind the cafeteria playing video games with the other awkward kids.

I think where I’m leading with this is, yeah, it’s totally TigerMegaDeth’s ‘right’ to flip out in a Target over thirty dollars in plastic, but if he really thinks it’s going to boost his ‘internet rep’ to post that story alongside an earlier one he made about how badly he wants to bone Mystique, he may want to consider how that represents himself, and if maybe *that* is the reason someone on Google Groups is specifically trolling him and not, say, Onslaught Six.

See, there's not being a spastic fuckwit and then there's being yourself. If you would really like to wear a Transformers shirt, and you're not because of what someone else thinks, then you're wrong. Being a man--nah, being an 'adult' is being who you are, and fuck what anyone else thinks. If you want to be a furry, okay, fine, go do that! It's entirely reasonable for anyone to enjoy whatever hobby they want. And just as you said--everyone's got a right to be mocked, as well. My long-standing rule has been, if you put it on the Internet, it will get found eventually, and someone will find a way to use it against you. You can either take it in stride or you can get pissed off about it and cause a scene.

Long time ago, some dudes edited a picture of me to look like Harry Potter. I was livid! I was very angry. Unspeakably so. A couple months back I made that picture my profile pic on Facebook because it was hilarious. I got over it. I grew up! Didn't let that shit bother me anymore. I still do strange things. When I go out, and I specifically put on clothes to go out (i.e. when I don't go somewhere after work) I put on my jeans and waist flannel and beat-to-shit leather jacket and black fingerless gloves, because that's what I want to look like. And if anyone dares mock me about it...well, then there would probably be blood on my gloves.

[Tigermegatron]

bullying & cyber bullying is wrong period. taking things to the next level is just wrong.

recent examples point to all the kids in school who got bullied by a group then the person killed themself.

to go around saying that person getting bullied in school or cyber bullied on line made himself a target be they were weak minded or physically weak is a UN-EDUCATED & HEARTLESS AS ANYONE COULD JUDGE.

it's wrong for bullies to target people because their physically weak,or because their loners who don't haved groups of friends to protect them. or because their mentally challenged or less smart. just because someone makes themselves a target doesn't make it right for others to swoop in,then exploit this then bully them.

another example: those poor kids that got raped by that penn state coach. were targets because they had mental or physical dis-abilities or they were dirt poor. the coach was wrong for targeting easy targets to rape.

same deal goes for women who get raped. it's wrong to say they were targets & they derserve to get raped. because they wore a sexy outfit,walked alone in a dark place,was out late at night. the fault goes solely to the rapist not the target. it's wrong of him to go out & rape people.

FACT MOST BULLIES OR CYBER BULLIES have shitty horrible lives,they bully or cyber bully because their jealous of that person or of everyone in the world. they bully or cyber bully because it makes their shitty lives seem a bit better. most bullies & cyber bullies have zero control of their lives,they like to bully because it gives them control & makes them feel like they have purpose & are in a higher position.

FACT most kids that bully others do so because they either come from welfare parents. they get abused mentally & physically from home then bring that to school & become bullies.

those who bully who are super rich are jealous of the poor kids who are more physically more attractive,more built & smarter. cuz if your born rich & your ugly money can't buy you a good looking body or face.

most cyber bullies have tons of free time on their hands. if they had a 40 hour work week job. a family life. friends to hang out with. all this would leave almost no time to cyber bully anyone on the internet. as most work 8 hours a day,get a one hour lunch break & spend a hour traveling back & forth to work. most need 8 hours sleep. this leaves most with 6 to 7 hours of free time on their hands. most use a hour to eat dinner with the family. most use a half hour to clean himslef up via a shower. depending on how young the guy is,a hour to have sex with the wife or girlfriend. most like to spend a few hours watching tv & hanging out with the family. all this leaves the guy zero ime to cyber bully.

SCOTTIE,SPENT 7 HOURS LAST NIGHT creating 12 troll threads on Alt.toys.transformers for 7:00pm to 2:00am. scottie has beenn wasting 7 hours each night creating 12 troll threads for the past 3 months. anyone can view the time threads get created on the internet via forums,message boards or news groups. this scottie troll spends half the day creating troll threads on Alt.toys.transformers. so he obviously doesn't work a 40 hour work week. he is most likely not married. he is most likely living at home still under his parents supervision. since scottie is a hacker & creates viruses,this takes time to master,create & devise,so he wastes more of his day doing all of this. scottie is beyond a cyber bully,he's exibits criminal behavior traits.

At this point,i'm sick & tired of scottie & i've decided to ignore him 100%. I'm going to let him waste 7 hours of his day trolling & pretending to be me. i'm curious to see how long a person can waste their day constantly with every new day that passes on by.

[Onslaught Six]

the coach was wrong for targeting easy targets to rape.

You're right. He should have picked more difficult rape targets!

I don't know I'm in a shitty mood.

FACT most kids that bully others do so because they either come from welfare parents. they get abused mentally & physically from home then bring that to school & become bullies.

Who's stereotyping now?

most cyber bullies have tons of free time on their hands. if they had a 40 hour work week job. a family life. friends to hang out with. all this would leave almost no time to cyber bully anyone on the internet. as most work 8 hours a day,get a one hour lunch break & spend a hour traveling back & forth to work. most need 8 hours sleep. this leaves most with 6 to 7 hours of free time on their hands. most use a hour to eat dinner with the family. most use a half hour to clean himslef up via a shower. depending on how young the guy is,a hour to have sex with the wife or girlfriend. most like to spend a few hours watching tv & hanging out with the family. all this leaves the guy zero ime to cyber bully.

Because I can't possibly troll people from my phone while I'm doing other things! My life is just so damn busy, with all that going home and laying in bed playing videogames!

SCOTTIE,SPENT 7 HOURS LAST NIGHT creating 12 troll threads on Alt.toys.transformers for 7:00pm to 2:00am. scottie has beenn wasting 7 hours each night creating 12 troll threads for the past 3 months. anyone can view the time threads get created on the internet via forums,message boards or news groups. this scottie troll spends half the day creating troll threads on Alt.toys.transformers. so he obviously doesn't work a 40 hour work week. he is most likely not married. he is most likely living at home still under his parents supervision. since scottie is a hacker & creates viruses,this takes time to master,create & devise,so he wastes more of his day doing all of this. scottie is beyond a cyber bully,he's exibits criminal behavior traits.

I like how you make assumptions. I work a 40-hour work week and I find plenty of time to post on the Internet about all kinds of things. Look at my Tumblr, after all.

[Tigermegatron]

in reponse by some saying targets make themselves easy targets & they should make themselves stronger in both the physical & mental sense. THIS IS EASIER SAID THAN DONE.

Examples of this below: if a kid is being targeted by bullies because he's tiny,short,weighs less & is puny looking. how exactly would he build himself up in a quick manner?? he's still shorter than everyone else even if he were to take steriods. if your skinny & trying to double your body weight this takes years not a few hours or days.

exmples: if your a target for bullies because your mentally challenged or physically handicaped. these are permanent conditions that studies have shown get worse as you age. you don't get better,you get worse according to all the medical research. so their is no way for these targets to stand out less in a crowd & avoid the swooping in bullies.

examples: the kids who got raped by the penn state coach & all those catholic churches were targeted by these rapist because they were the most vulernable,had bad home conditions,some were poor,others were shy social outcast. just because some under age kids life is rape target material. doesn't make it right to exploit this & rape them. this is why we have jail to put these child rapist behind bars.

examples: Just because a women makes themselves a target for a rapist. by walking home alone at night,wearing a sexy outfit,flirting or whatever. doesn't make it right for a rapist to rape a women against her will. this is why we have jails to lock up rapist of women.

cyber bullying is wrong because it from some news shows i watch targets killed themselves or could kill themselves. being ganged up on & stalked everywhere you go on the internet is evil cyber bullying behavior. it's never a good thing to take things to the next level & escalate the situation. by over stepping your bounds beyond the noral. NORMAL BEHAVIOR IS A THREAD GETTING OUT OF HAND SAYING MEAN WORDS TO SOMEONE,THEN FORGETTING ABOUT IT & MOVING ON WITH YOUR LIFE. TO be a vindicive person,trying to win the debate he lost,then being a stalker,cyber bullying the guy in other threads,hacking the guys accouunt,trying to send him viruses & so forth goes beyond the NORMAL,IT's escalates into phyocpatch behavior,malicious troll behavious,criminal behaviour & so forth.
