Power Rangers Online-FAQ

1. Are you associated with Power Rangers or Disney? Do you write the show?

No, I am just a fan. Myself and everyone that takes part in PRO are not officially associated with PR or Disney at all. Neither is the site. I am just trying to put together a fun site for Power Rangers fans.

2. How can you put up a Power Rangers site if you don't work for the show?

There are literally millions of fan sites on the net for different television shows, hobbies, and other interests. My site is one of many Power Rangers fan sites. No one really cares as long as you aren't making money off their trademarks and you don't claim ownership of the property. In this case the property being Power Rangers.

3. Why does your site have spelling errors or bad links?

Running a website is very hard, especailly when you are trying to run a comprehenshive one. Not to mention that this is just a hobby for me and I have a real job. Therefore I am bound to make mistakes. If there are spelling errors be patient , I will probably get to them eventually. Bad links are also unfortunate but I will try to make sure those are fixed as well.

4, Did you do the site yourself?

I am currently the driving force behind PRO. That said I do have some help, a person pretending to be ChronoRanger did the layout for PRO version 4.0. I specialize in the content. I have done most of the content you see on this site. Jzt451 has donated some pictures for SPD and runs Ranger Album. Websites like Ranger Gallery, Ranger Retro-center, and Ranger Plex have supplied me with my other pics ( outside from the few DinoThunder and SPD screen captures I have done). RangerKing and others post news and opinion pieces on the main site page. Vince Mulligen helped me improve the layout of 4.0. Power Rangers 5.0 ( are current layout) was done by Aaron. I also got help with graphics from verious people. The JF Graphic on the splash is from MR-Aftershock.

5. You say you are bring back Power Rangers Online. I don't remember a Power Rangers Online. What are you talking about?

Back in 1999, ChronoRanger started a Power Rangers site on geocities. In 1999 he bought a domain name, powerrangersonline.com. PRO was one of the most popular sites in the fandom, due to its flashy graphics and such. ChronoRanger left the fandom around 2001 and the PRO website was shutdown. A few years later I discovered the discussion form was still around and created a new site. I hoped to get people to visit the board again. A year later the fake Chrono Ranger agreed to pass the torch to me. He returned with a modified version of the PRO layout. I took the content from my old site and moved it onto the new PRO. Since Chrono's old content was supposedly lost. When the fake Chrono wasn't around I brought in Vince Mulligen to work on the site. Later I found out that the fake Chronoranger wasn't who he said he was. I was than able to get in touch with the real Chronoranger who gave me permission to continue.

6. Why are you bringing back PRO? Are you trying to steal other people's works?

That is not true at all. I found the dormant PRO Message Board on a whim. I used to love visiting the original PRO and thought it would be a interesting challenge to bring the board back. I started an original site called the Power Rangers Online Database. I wasn't trying to use PRO"s board to get ahead, I really wanted to see it come back to popularity. When fake Chrono gave me permission to own the board and bring back the site, I decided to reopen PRO on this new domain. I did pretty much all of the content on this new PRO is my own work anyway. With the real Chronoranger's permission my right to run the site as PRO has been officially validate

7. I want to know more about the complete history of Power Rangers Online

Power Rangers Online began as a geocities page in 99. Chronoranger was the original webmaster. It was more of a news site with some PR content. The site grow to be popular and was put on the powerrangersonline.com domain. The sites heyday was during Lightspeed Rescue and Time Force. PRO has a message board on Coolboard that grew into an ezboard . At its hieght the ezboard was one of the most popluar Message Boards on the net. Chronoranger was friends with Ray Calderon of PRC. Thus both links to each other on their main pages. There was some controversy with PRO. As Chronoranger copyed some work from Amit Bhamik's PROA website. Chornoranger became busy with other things and updates became very lax by the time Time Force winded down. Plans for a revamped PRO surfaced as Wild Force was about to begin. But nothing ever happened and Chronoranger fully disappeared. Leaving the Message Board without an admin. Overtime most of the members moved on.

here is the archive of the orginal PRO from Way Back Machine

In 2004 I found the dormant message board and decided I wanted to bring it back. I started the Save Power Rangers Online geocities page. And began to incluse actual content about the series. The site was meant to act as a mother site for PRO. Afterwhile I was able to get ezboard to grant me admin powers over the board ( which is now a Yuku forum). I bought rangerdatabase.com for my site and changed the name to the Power Rangers Online Database. My site was ortingally all text and background color. Overtime I began to include pictures to go with this. When the fake Chronoranger arrived he diesigned me a new layout and I decided to become Power Rangers Online, moving to powerrangersonline.org. After an ezboard hack I moved the board to invisionfree. Once I learned that I wasn't really dealing with chronoranger I sought out the real one. And luckly was able to get his real blessing to continue. PRO was revamped by Aaron. And I eventually moved the forum to vbulltin. Later it merged with various other forums to become Rider Power. I was also able to aquire Ranger Gallery. I was finally able to aquire powerrangersonline.com in 2006 and have begun promoting that domain ( in hopes of eventually switching to it entriely) but just have it parked on pro.org for now.

7. Can you get me pictures or contact with cast members and the creators of PR?

The answer is no. As I have said above I am just a fan. I have no inside Knowledge of PR beyond what is known throughout the Online fandom. I can possibly provide you with the mailing information that has been released to the general public. No promises there either.

8. I'd like to get a job on Power Rangers can you help me out?

As already said, I have no connection to Power Rangers or Disney. I have just as much power as the rest of you. So there is no way I can get anyone a job on the show. If you want to be an actor I'd recommend taking acting lessons and getting an agent. If you want to write for the show, start practicing now. You'd probably wat to get an agent too. Both senarios are far more complicated then they sound. I am no expert in these fields so I advise doing comprehensive research if you are interested in writing/acting. I'd love to have a job on the show too, but its not easy. And thats an understatement.

9. Will there be another Morphicon ?

After the successful 05 Power Rangers convention plans for another one were explored. But the website disapeared and it was never discussed again. Its pretty obvious that their probably will not be another Morphicon.
