* TheJuggernaut:Former member Lamentofgrunty. He is said to be the most persistent and worst spammer to ever join the forums not even SSDZelda came close to his level. A spammer of the vBulletin era who was nigh unstoppable, to the point where even Grey Jinjo famous ban hammer (ip ban) was rendered ineffective as his use of proxies negated this effect. He used an unprecedented amount of sock puppets. Gold Jinjo stated that the only method capable of stopping Lamentofgrunty was completely shutting off registration to the forums itself. Though lamentofgrunty fell victim to the greatest April Fool's prank in RWP history. The banned list "Grunty's rejects" is named after him.
