Default Power Rangers Online Archives

Anyone remember this site. Its was around in the late ninities until the year 2000. Amit Bhaumik (yes the same person that would go on to become the story editor of Wild Force and a consultant on Samurai/Super Samurai) ran the site while attending film school. He had free webspace from his school and used it to build the site

It was an encyclepedia of Power Rangers information. Not unlike the Writers Guide to Power Rangers that Joe Rovang worked on. Many fans at the time considered PROA one of the big three sites of the fandom ( PRC, and Morphing Grid were the other two).

When Amit left college he lost the website and announced he was shutting the site down. He teased a possible comeback but it never happened. Besides Amit had moved on to become a crew member on the show not long after so couldn't work on a fan site anyway.

Snoopswarner tries to archive the site but was asked to take it down by Amit. The site can still be found on Way Back Machine, which archives old websites dating back to 1996.

Its funny because when I used to browse PR sites at school or library's I did visit the site and remember it closing down. But when I had my own computer and started visiting PRC and PRO regularly I never knew what PROA looked like. Since I always remembered it as the Power Rangers Encylopedia. But once I saw Snoops Archive and Way Back Machines, I finally remembered that I did visit the site.

It was a great site and fun to reminse about. Diffinitly a good resource for its time.
