I don't know what they were saying, but the replies Rager sent them speaks volumes on the kind of person he is when it comes to criticism.
"I have been playing him for two decades. Fuck off."
So not only can Rager not control himself online, he's associating the character he plays with said actions.
So he blocked you too... He blocked me other day for asking him ' if he is playing Mr.Satan currently on twitter or are is he genuinely this much of an arrogant asshole' !!! I grew up hearing this guy's performance but never expected him to be such a dick in real life, never followed him to begin with... I'm kinda glad he blocked me!!!!
I bet chris sabat is doing lot of facepalms right about now for supporting this wanker other day!!!
While I'm disappointed in Rager for acting a fool, this line is savage!

I'm not sure this is surprising. Schemmel's been doing this forever. It's cause they are not that good actors who barely have any roles outside Dragon Ball, so having other people try their hand at it gives the possibility of them being replaced in the eyes of the fans.
How many times have you seen Schemel yell "I'm Goku", or now Rager "I'm Satan" (sometimes accompanied by insults) ? A lot. Because that's all they are. Take that away and you wouldn't even hear about them anymore.
Compare it to Sabat, who not only has two main roles in Dragon Ball, but dozen others recognizable names in a bunch of anime.

Well, I know this is a long shot, but maybe we could track down the people who managed to record the Singapore English dubs of Yu-Gi-Oh! and One Piece?
Clips from those dubs only ever surfaced because Odex used to release VCDs and DVDs. As far as I can tell, that's not something that's being done anymore.
"I like the money it brings in, but Dragon Ball Heroes is the worst. That's actually the real reason I decided to start working on new material. I was afraid Bandai would make something irredeemably stupid like Super Saiyan 4 Broly." - Akira Toriyama, made up interview, 2013.

Agreed. The shit and nonsense that happens on Twitter should stay on Twitter and not really be brought to attention to this forum.

I still haven’t lived down going, “Who the heck is Tao Pai-pai?” that one time I was talking with Ei’ichiro Oda-kun. But the fact that there are still people reading the series after all this time… All I can say is; “thank you.” Really, that’s all.

And that you also have IMMENSELY skewed and comically backwards priorities in what you think is most important and needed to make a good Dragon Ball story.

A guy like Rager will never have a professional career outside of Texas with that attitude. He's lucky he can depend on work from Funimation and the contracts that OkraTron 5000 gets (which is conveniently owned by his buddy Sabat), otherwise he'd likely be done. Right now he's being rude and unapologetic because he knows that his job is safe, had he been working anywhere else this type of behaviour towards fans would've likely gotten him fired.
Outside of the Dragonball fanbase Rager isn't even recognized as an exceptional actor. You'd at least expect the guy to be humble but apparently he acts like his own biggest fan.

He gets praise for his work as Arlong in One Piece's Funimation dub. Anyway, I seriously expected better from a guy like him. I don't think the Ocean actors ever acted like this.
"It was deemed to be too awesome." - Scott McNeil on Dragon Ball Kai not being aired yet in Canada.
The show will air daily it seems at 10.37am. The title of the episodes are identical to FUNi's. But it seems they haven't started dubbing the Freeza arc yet.... so a daily schedule seems odd, if it is daily but there is definitely more than one episode a week for sure.

Dude you are totally right, i jut saw toonami schedule and both 1 and 2 episode air back to back for 2 days!!! Don't know about rest of week after 22nd though, they haven't listed yet!!!
I think they will repeat same episodes throughout the week or who knows we might be in luck, we might get entire season till frieza revival saga for straight 14 days!!!
Hope they broadcast 2 episode per week, so that when it airs more episodes than funimation dub may be it will get the attention it deserves and someone would record it in HQ!!!
Woah pretty solid and experienced cast so far... I know lex lang would do his job well because he took criticism pretty boldly and his performance in past proves he would be great as Goku...If Only Archie Fletcher would do good job as beerus,Even though his voice is perfect dialog delivery seemed little too stiff in promo (but will hear his wait for his full performance in series and then judge)... It would end up being one hell of a dub!!!

Damn you saw this coming miles ahead... We're you holding dragon Ball in any case lol!!! Just listened to her performance in harmony gold dub, she is pretty amazing...Glad she got to reprise her role again!!!
