I have seen his screen name in sig lines and mentioned in posts, for example:  Free Imbroglio!! (Is he in ARFCOM prison or something?),  Is that you Imbroglio??  Welcome back!! (I guess another users state of thinking/posting is very similar to this mythical/mystical man of legend)  Wow, the title of this post could have been written by Imbroglio himself (Is that a good thing or a bad thing when it's said in reference to some ones post?)!!

So, what was this mans crime, if any?  
Was his account blocked or did he just stop posting all of a sudden??

He is currently in exile. He made some people think too much so he was banished [:)]

Funny how certain people obtain legendary staus among the crew here. Imboglio, McUzi, and I remember when Zen left. Interesting how people react to others

I always suspected Imbroglio to be the alter ego of either Troy or the Goat. Either way, it is a small matter.

It can't be that small of a matter, some of these ARFCOMers act as if he was a martyr for whatever cause they decide to post about!  I bet this Imbroglio thing is an evil government conspiracy that goes to the highest levels of AR15.COM!!!  I bet Goat is running the whole show with Red_Beard at his side........yea.yea that's it!![jump][freak]

Just substitute "Imbroglio" for "Keyser Soze" in the [url=http://www.godamongdirectors.com-END Of Script Attempt-
s/usual.shtml]screenplay for "The Usual Suspects"[/url].  That's who he is.

[b]He is supposed to be Turkish. Some say    his father was German. Nobody believed he     was real. Nobody ever saw him or knew         anybody that ever worked directly for          him, but to hear Kobayashi tell it,          anybody could have worked for Imbroglio. You    never knew. That was his power. The          greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was      convincing the world he didn't exist.....[/b]

Dont miss him a bit.

Sniper_408

He is over at www.full-auto.com if you really would like know the legend.

If you havent been over to FA you should take a few minutes and log in and check it out. Then when you come back here you will feel just a little bit dirty but it showers off. You dont know what you have untill its gone.

He used to be funny, and he used to make people think, but he was a broken record for waaaaaay too long.  That crap got really old.

McUzi used to make me think.  Too bad he couldn't hold back on the race baiting-name calling.

EDIT EDIT EDIT, The guy who did this was not DA, but a guy named Free Fire Zone, My bad, if DA is an asshat, it aint cause of his claims to being a Ninja!!!!!!!!!!!



He is a guy who claimed all kinds of Spec Ops Black missions in Latin America, and then when real operators called him out, was gone in an instant.

He was a check and balance.  He was the master of making sure you did not get blinded by your own dogma.  He questioned everything.  And, in some peoples eyes, he went too far.

Actually, it won't be Nevada, but if he is on schedule, I will see him tommorow. He is making another circuit of the country, and also wants to come to the Nevada meet next weekend. I will let him explain his plans and tell him he was missed.

He is the patron saint of ar15.com.

As the holy saga goes....

He was but a simple paranoid skitzo posting in the early free days of AR15.com.

Until one day the jack booted space thugs took him for a spin in their flying saucer.

Some say he was never quite the same after the anal probing.

He was tried for violation of ar15.com doctrine and forced into exile at fullauto.com

Blah![}:D]

Here's a FYI Ladies and Gentlemen:

Imbroglio's account has been unlocked.

It is up to him to decide if he wishes to return or not.

Those of us who were around in the "old days" of the AR15 mailing list remember when "Imbroglio" used to post under his real name.
