Cole said that the group swatted people for two reasons: for kicks, and to get even. "They had very limited social skills so they were kind of immature," he said.
Martinez who is described as the one generally responsible for making the telephone calls, was nicknamed the "Wicked Wizard." He would often swat victims as a way of getting even for some chatroom slight, Cole said. "I think it was a power trip for him. It was his way of being the big man." A great plan, until a 400 lb bubba leans over and asks what he is in for - a few months later, he will have some boobs tattooed onto his back in newspaper ink, and will walk funny. The twerps probably thought high-school was bad.
