Psycho Nuts On The Internet
Usually, I get really nice fans from The Nuns website, but once in a while, you get some really STRANGE people. This latest nut keeps emailing me saying that he did the "lighting" for the Genotorturers, and he wants me to hire him to go on tour with us, and then he starts to tell me about how he likes to have kinky sex, etc.
Then he says that he has this "friend" and they want me to sign some contract with them and they will sell Nuns things and make a website. Then when I asked him questions, he got all upset and hostile, and sent me all these long, angry ranting e-mails!
I mean, at first these people are kind of funny because it is SO ridiculous, but then when they get kind of hostile, you are really glad that they don't have your address or phone number!
Have you ever run into any crazies on the internet?
Re: Psycho Nuts On The Internet
If you are at a level where you have fans then you're bound to have some weird nutjobs chasing after ya. This fella above one of the more "colorful" types..."Hire me, fuck me, let me make money off you, etc."
I'm wondering how these guys think this all makes sense.

Exactly!!! I mean his first e-mail was so funny that Jeff and I were laughing! But now I think I better just put his e-mails into the junk mail section and call it a day!
Oh by the way, now the DVD company says that they are going to use the tattoo photos for the cover, so thanks for your support!!!!
Re: Psycho Nuts On The Internet
I run into looneys on the internet just as much as I seem to run into them in real life. :(

I know! He says that he might use one of the brunettes and put "devil" stuff around it.... I told him to just photoshop a bunch of devil girls around me and make it into a pentagram, call it a day!

I ran into a few of them, and the next thing you know im posting on their board. Yeah, you know who I'm talking about.
Re: Psycho Nuts On The Internet
I understand running into a few nuts if you're any sort of celebrity or have your own web page or something, but who would've thought I would run into one my first time on e-bay? I was selling my electric guitar, I think I was pretty clear about what I had to offer (I even posted pictures with close-ups). The guy who won it--by just a few bucks--would not pay up e-mailed me constantly for more detailed photos and descriptions (something he should have done before buying!). I ended up sending him about 20 close-ups and answering his every e-mail (he mailed me about twice a day) then he threatened to sue because the guitar wasn't what he had hoped (which is sad, since it was a fuckin' amazing guitar at a damn good price)! So I told him to just call it off and stop bugging me and resold the damn thing for about the same price to a totally satisfied customer.

Re: Psycho Nuts On The Internet
They're fun to toy with. I had to give up the habit tho. The truth tends to be scarier than fiction.

Oh I know, nothing is scarier that crazy people that IM you all the time!! And a lot of times, they have NO reason to talk to you, and they just start to say weird things about their boyfriend and them being naked....
One girl kept IMing me and telling me that she was naked and her boyfriend started IMing me too saying that they were naked..This was when I was at WORK...
Or she would IM and say nothing. I mean, just NOTHING. I just don't get it... Why IM someone when you have nothing to say?
Re: Psycho Nuts On The Internet
yeah, I know how that goes. I hate the ones that try to add you to their buddy list and get pissed when you say no.
Re: Psycho Nuts On The Internet

Re: Psycho Nuts On The Internet

runaway on acid? oh, so it was someone else from this message board. hehe
Re: Psycho Nuts On The Internet
Whoa! Deja Vu, here. A galpal was interviewing/talking-to a drummer for a band she was starting and he was totally like that. This was over the phone though and the fellow was a creepy jerk. A scene can be nice for screening people out like that, but the Internet is kind of like mindsex without a condom, risky, you know. At least we have to power to just ignore folks with a computer and have such wonderful tools like email filters and what not.

I had this kind of thing happen when I work radio. I didn't think it would get that bad but man was I ever wrong. Some of the calls I would get were just strange in the John Wain Gacey kinda way. Going home was really weird after these calls. A person does not feel safe with this kind of shit. I know I sure as the black abyss didn't. I don't know if you've ever gone through the stalker thing but if you've havn't, be glad then.

Wow, so someone found your address? How did they find it from working on a radio show? Pretty scary...
