The Mall Ninja

[ALLEYCAT-2]

Any of you guys remember this ass clown and can help me find his old post? He's stirring trouble on another forum and we need to gather some info to counter some complaints he's made . I know i read some of his BS somewhere but I can't remember if it was here. Any help would be greatly appreciated !

[Massgrunt]

Lol... I remember that guy from here and another forum. It was hilarious. I can't believe anyone thought he was serious. If we're talking about the "saving anal virginity at the mall" guy, I'm convinced he was just yanking everyone's chain. I laughed my ass off.

He also made an appearance in the "North Hollywood Firefight" thread.

[iraqgunz]

Does this moron understand that Level III armor offers more protection than IIA? Apparently not. What a fucktard.

[KidA]

I want this as a signature:

My “Black-Ops” history ensures that you will never know about the missions I accepted in my younger days, and Vietnam still shudders when it hears the name of a an assasin so skillful and deadly, he is remembered decades later.

[ALLEYCAT-2]

Thanks husker that will help. If there are others fire away.

[WS-G]

YEP.... (Barney Fife sneer).... You never know when someone might want to put multiple .308 rounds through your back.... :rolleyes:

I had to quit reading that link when I got down to the part with the briefcase full of extra trauma plates for head shots (or whatever...). No worries about head shots, as a mall ninja clearly has nothing there to protect anyway, except againt possible damage to that expensive foil hat.

[jsmurphy]

there's a recent thread on him over at Blackfive. Just saw it this morning.

Dude, that's AWESOME!!!:D:D Hahahaha!!! Okay now, which one of y'all played SPECOPS? His last post describing the mall fight after which he was offered the corporate position was one of the best mall fight descriptions I have ever read!! I was on the edge of my seat, bated breath, waiting to read what happened next! Those posts really made my day. My stomach hurts and I'm still crying from laughing so hard, and my keyboard is starting to smoke from the coffee spat onto it.
If anyone sees them again, please let me know. No matter what TOW missiles and Chechyn rebels I may have to deal with in my orchard today, I know I can handle it with a smile knowing the Mall Ninjas have my back. heeheeheehee - still wiping my eyes.

[ALLEYCAT-2]

you have the link JS ?

[flhshvlhed]

Husker - thanks for 2 things:

1. Causing my IQ to drop by 10 points for the time that I was reading that.

2. Causing me to piss away 30 minutes of my life, that I'll never get back! ;)

OTOH - I do feel safer when I go to the mall though!! :D

[MBTex]

you have the link JS ?

[Terminator2]

Come on all of you. You can't tell me that you DON'T have special wall climbing ninja boots! :D

I do get the feeling that he was just trying to be funny though. He did a good job with that!

[Sharky]

There was definitely a thread on here where he showed up and became the new chewtoy for a bit but damned if I can find it. Anyone remember his user name? I dont think it was Gecko45 on here. Seems like someone here linked him to being the same guy as Gecko45 but he had a different username on here.

I remember him posting in the North Hollywood fire fight thread, but I was pretty new around here when he made his appearance. I was still absorbed by the Midshipman with the automatic mouth who was going to mini-buds, and the Ranger wannabe who ran into the tractor.

[CB]

Damn, I never realized the danger I was in each Christmas from the crazy Hickory Farms cheese slice stealing felons who could have demolished the mall with hand grenades but for suitably body armored mall security with automatic weapons.

[Massgrunt]

That guy kills me. There is NO WAY he was trying to be serious. I read his stuff on a couple boards, he had me rolling. The best part was the howls of indignation from everyone. :D

[ALLEYCAT-2]

I'm trying to verify that this guy and the one on the other board are the same. He uses the same MO where he spouts BS and then his friend comes in to defend him once he gets pounced on by those that call him on his BS. His friend of course is him using a different name. He's a retard for sure !

Sharky, I think I read something on here but I also can't find it for shit. We busted him with three different names on the other forum and Gecko was not one. I remember someone busting on him with his real name (N.G.) but it may have been on a different forum.

[TXSWAT]

(shaking my head in total disbelief)

A. I can't believe for a second that he's married...I call bullshit.

B. I've seen these "specialized" battery-operated craft he speaks of...probably a Gleek or something.

C. 400 rounds per night in a system that "replicates" their on-duty system...ah, air-soft. got it.

D. Ah, to hell with D. (back to shaking my head in disbelief)

[Massgrunt]

Guys, am I nuts? Am I the only one that is 100% positive he's just fucking with everyone? Is this all an elaborate joke on me that you guys are in on?

Am I being followed?

No, you're not nuts. This guy has been doing this for years on various forums, he just likes scewing around with people. I don't think he's doing it to be a jerk, he's just getting a laugh. God help him if he runs into this guy, though...

http://realultimatepower.net

[okami1]

KSM,

I thought I was the only one... :D

[ironpaw]

LOL, what a laugh. Agreed - I'm pretty sure he's just stringing people along...

[JJMR]

KSM,

LMAO, nope. I was thinking about it the whole time, trying to finish the thread and see if anyone had seen this character.:p

[okami1]

Not to mention, that is the coolest rendition of "Big Pimpin'" I have ever heard.

And by coolest, I mean totally sweet.

[Louis]

I also think he is pulling everyones chain. Only thing is he seems like a real sick MF'er to keep it up for so long. I mean where does he get all his material from?

[Avandir]

Of course he's a bullshitter. That's by-far the funniest thing I've ever read. Instant classic. I just wish I could come up with something like that...

[terrible tim]

That was funny. It was some good satire by Gecko. He played those guys and kept pushing their buttons. If they had ignored him, he probably would have went away...

Can we just arbitrarily blame that HighSchoolDropOutHater tool from way-back-when? Or do I forfeit all future claims to Scooby Snacks for even thinking of invoking that name? :eek:

[Fofo]

I can't believe I read that whole thing. :D :eek: He posted before I joined, but I remember the thread existing about a year ago and reading through it. I remember him saying he could get additional ceramic plates (dinner plates?) from the Pottery Barn, and insert it in his armor vest pockets. Also, he said they have a Barrett Fifty to stop hard targets in the SOCNET thread.

Wow. :eek:

That's all I can say for both occasions.

He's either one - Screwing around with everyone, in which case, it's hilarious. Or two, there is a seriously screwed in the head man who really does believe all of the crap he types.

[RGR.Montcalm]

I can't believe I read the whole thread- he's GOT to be pulling people's chains just to get a reaction- there is no way he could possibly be that stupid and be able to hook up a computer.

I almost pissed myself laughing at this moron/ comedian. Any chance of tracing the IP address on him (Gecko 45) and his 'buddy' (SPECOPS) to see if they're the same person?

There has got to be some way of tracing him and finding out iof he is wickedsickfunny or just FUBAR...

GOD FORBID SOMEONE ACTUALLY TAKES YOUR GARBAGE TO HEART AND TRIES THIS INSANITY....YOUR GOING TO GET SOEM POOR KID KILLED....ARE YOU READY TO ACCEPT THAT RESPONSIBILITY. AS FOR ME....IM A NINJUTSU SOKE...GRANDMASTER....IN A LEGITAMATE NINJA RYU (FAMILY) WITH 25 YEARS UNDER MY BELT IN AN HISTORICALY TRACEABLE LINEAGE. I STONGLY URGE THAT YOU DO THE FOLLOWING....
>1:PLACE AN APOLOGY ON THE SIGHT WITHIN 48 HRS OF RECIEPT OF MY EMAIL TO ALL NINPO STUDENTS AND TEACHERS.
>2:PLACE A NOTE ON THE BEGINING OF YOUR SIGHT TELLING EVERYONE THAT GOES TO YOUR SIGHT THAT YOU ARE FULL OF BS.HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE OF THE ART AND TO NOT TAKE THE SIGHT SERIOUSLY
>3: REMOVE THE SIGHT BEFOR SEPT 15 2002. SHOULD YOU NOT REMOVE THE SIGHT BY THAT DATE THEN I WILL FIRST LOBBY AOL TO HAVE THE SIGHT REMOVED. IF THAT DOES NOT WORK I WILL PAY YOU A VISIT TO TEACH YOU WHAT REAL SHINOBI IS CAPABLE OF DOING....AND BELIEVE ME...I CAN AND WILL VISIT YOU. YOUR SIGHT IS DANGEROUS AND OFFENSIVE...ESPECIALLY TO SOMEONE LIKE ME WHO HAS DEDICATED HIS LIFE TO THIS ART AND HAS INHERITED THE SYSTEM AND KNOWS THE DANGERS AND VALIDITY OF NINJUTSU. I EXPECT AN EMAIL IN RETURN TO CONFIRM YOUR RECIEPT OF THIS EMAIL.....GOD HELP YOU IF YOU DONT RESPOND.

The Warrior Ninja and Military Arts Headquarters dojo?

Bu- Military art or discipline

Fu- Wind

Kan-House or Hall

Literally, the Training hall of the Warrior wind.

The character "Nin" has the meaning of "perserverance" or "endurance". Ninpo is an alternate writing of Ninho, which is regarded as a more appropriate way to describe Ninjutsu, "jutsu" meaning "the art of". Ninpo would be thought of as a the more comprehensive appellation for Ninjutsu, if that makes sense. In the modern sense, Ninpo is now called Budo Taijutsu by the Bujinkan system, to distance itself from the total bullshit about Ninjutsu in the world today, and to provide a more accurate insight into what Ninpo is all about. Bujinkan (http://www.bujinkan.com/) Budo Taijutsu- Art of using the body to follow the way of Bu.

Since Ninjutsu did not experience the same cultural transformation as the arts specific to the Samurai class with the unification of Japan in 1603, it consequently was never formalized as a "do" routine during the time of the peaceful pursuit of martial perfection. For example, Kenjutsu-Kendo/Jujutsu-Judo, etc. "Do" has the meaning of "way". The philosophy of Kenjutsu can be thought of as the practical side of using the sword in combat, while Kendo takes into account the more spiritual and nuanced ideas of mastering one's self through the use of the sword. These are not two separate, discrete ideas, and likely all who truly follow the way of the sword employ both facets of this realization in its use. Emptiness is form and form is emptiness.

The "Bujutsu" lit. "the art of Bu" used here is somewhat superfluous, and given that the guy who founded that dojo has been outed as a major fraud, I'm not surprised. The character for Bu, has the original meaning "to stop a spear", hence the translation of Bushi, as warrior. Perhaps more accurately, and because in some warrior disciplines in the West it is implicit in the word itself, Bushi translates more accurately as "peacemaker". In this light, Bujutsu becomes the Art of pacifying agression. Bu is the core of this code, and in the West it has become generalized as "martial arts are for self-defense (or defense of others) only".

Hombu- Headquarters

Dojo- Lit. "Way place"

Shortened it's Homo (Hombu + Dojo).

Or: The place Gays go to Gay out with Gays doing Gay things.

That's an interesting translation.

Only some dojos encourage pederasty though. Some focus on ass-kicking, and then some focus on discpline, fighting skills, and spiritual development.

That being said, there are a lot of GHEY dojos out there.

Hey - there was NOTHING gay about the naked knife-fight in the Bath House in "Eastern Promises." It may have involved a sweaty, nude Viggo Mortensen fighting for his life against two knife-wielding thugs, but I'll say again - not gay.................gee, I think I forgot some of the moves they used; I may have to rewatch it.......for training purposes and training purposes only, of course.:cool:

[KidA]

It definitely did not move during Eastern Promises.

[iraqgunz]

Nobody as hot as Viggo could be gay. That would just be wrong. :D

I work in the high risk mall security industry and other government agencies that I can not disclose, but l can vouch for Mister Nathan. I can bear witness to some of his PSD Combat Missions. The others I can not due to the fact that most are still classified. Nathan is a highly trained operator that can climb a wall using special boots due to his mastery of ninjutsu. For those in the community who would like to verify my ID, my authorization code is: (((ROR redacted)))

I think I may know who this clown is! When I worked as a patrolman in a smaller city in Georgia, we had a guy come in to "intorduce" himself to the local cops. I swear he told me that he was part of the get this, he actually said this..."K-Mart S.W.A.T." Team. He then proceeded to tell my whole shift about his expolits on board the "K-Mart Tactical Air Unit" at the innaugaration of President George Bush Sr. Long story short, I ended up arresting him for false imprisonment, and battery about a year later. He had all kinds of Police type stuff on him at the time, but he actually was in LP for K-Mart.:p

The mall ninja was a persona put on by a guy that's a business principal for a company called Coal Creek Armory. let me go find the thread on AR15.com where his dad outed him...

[bigsapper]

Can't find it, but here's what I recollect...

There's a company, Coal Creek Armory (http://www.coalcreekarmory.com/) that used to be an "Industry Partner" (advertiser) on www.ar15.com. One of the business partners had a screen name of "Juggernaut".

At some point in years past, he apparently created a troll account with the screen name "Gecko45". I think it was stated that the first mall ninja post was done over at GlockTalk. He quickly gravitated to a lot of gun boards and a few mil/leo baords.

At some point CCA & ar15.com ceased their business relationship. Juggernaut/Gecko45 quit posting there shortly thereafter.

A few months back, in the context of another subject, Juggernaut's dad (ar15.com screen name "xanadu") confirmed that Gecko45 was his son, aka Juggernaught, and that he personally witnessed him posting several of his more infamous posts. All a big joke, ya know.

Anyway, that's the extent of my recollection, pending location of the thread. Since AR15.com's site search facilities sucks, I doubt I will locate it.

[WS-G]

...in Georgia, we had a guy come in to "intorduce" himself to the local cops. Attributing this misperceived term to the local lower-class's dialectic way of pronouncing "introduce" is understandible, however this wasn't what he was actually saying. Had you listened more carefully, you would have noticed him to have distinctly said inner deuce.

As in: "He's so full of sh!t, he's perpetually getting in touch with his inner deuce."

..."K-Mart S.W.A.T." Team.
The aforementioned action (to wit: having gotten in touch with one's inner deuce) is a hard and fast prerequisite to initiation into this very elite body.

He had all kinds of Police type stuff on him at the time, but he actually was in LP for K-Mart.:p "K-Mart/Walmart Loss Prevention: When You're Too High-Speed for the Secret Service!"

[Husker19D30]
