- On April 16, 1996, Michael Demcio's Rhyme and Reason premiered as the first Rescue Ranger fan fiction on Usenet. It was the first novel-length Ranger story, and the first story to explore the possibilities of the Chip/Gadget relationship, the first to provide real character development for any of the characters.

"The "Ranger Wars", the two heated debates over the Chip/Gadget relationship was waged by groups called "Pros" and "Antis". Although serious at first the conflict never became inflammatory, and by the end had even taken on a slap-stick nature. Most Rangerphiles fall into one of the two categories, but a neutral middle has always existed. Today most members at the Acorn Café consider "The Ranger Wars" as objects of hilarity, and although the factions still exist and show their beliefs in story and art, the general friendly atmosphere of the fandom and the strict policies on censoring contentious issues have all but erased any unpleasant memories."

[edit] Ranger War II
On February 14, 1998, an innocent post on the new Acorn Café accidentally sets off "Ranger War II", this one given the informal name "The St. Valentine's Day Massacre". Much more brief than the first, the final consensus on the Chip/Gadget relationship is that neither side on the "Pro Vs. Anti" debate had a majority and that arguing about such matters was not constructive. This was the final "Ranger War".
