Hat tip: multiple readers
Confirmation: SpectreFate, of Heart of Metal
And another one gone
And another one gone
Another one bites the dust
La Femme Nikita has officially been kicked off of the metal forum. Several readers let me know in comments on my Uncle Fossil entry. Indeed, all his comments and threads appear with Nicky listed as “Guest.” However, one of the mods there left a comment on my Susanna Holmes entry:
edit this on March 10, 2010 at 4:30 pm SpectreFateFYI…..Nickolaus has been removed from the Heart of Metal forum although he didn’t violate our forum rules. All the negative attention that has followed his arrival is not what we are about. He must have really done some crazy things to have so many despise him………..
That’s a bit of an understatement. It’s not so much that people despise him. Think of it more as rubberneckers gathering at the site of a train wreck.
I thought he’d last maybe a month on that forum. It never takes very long, but six days has to be a new record for the Nickster.
“…rubberneckers gathering at the site of a train wreck.”
Only in this case the wreck is that of Nickolaus’ train of thought.
I hope they didn’t feel bullied by us into doing that. Hell most forums won’t ban people until they break rules on the forum itself, so them allowing him there didn’t make them bad. We’re good people for the most part and I never saw anyone suggest that they be “punished” for allowing Nicky to post there. You guys don’t suppose Larry started threatening the mods, do you?
I find myself lurking there in the non-metal threads, it’s actually a pretty cool place! Any board that has a discussion about the movie “Devil’s Rain” and sees the good in it is ok in my book. 🙂
Oh but someone is going to be piiiiiiiiiissssssssssed….
Not surprised in the least and that forum will no doubt be better off for it. He’s a ticking time-bomb and he had already started the same pattern that he has done in the past on other boards. It was either deal with his idiocy until his inevitable explosion or cut ties now and save the drama.
Kind of disappointed we didn’t get to see another melt-down, but for the sake of the cool people over there on those forums, I’m glad they didn’t have to deal with it.
(I hink he’ll re-register under another name and attempt to lay low for a while. Which will be hilarious in itself because he can’t stop plugging himself long enough to try to be incognito. Remember the “reporter” that he tried to assume and do an expose on a critic?)
Jason Trotter and his attempt to “interview” DJ Pathogen? I still get a chuckle at the thought of that because in the UK the Trotter surname is synonymous with Del Boy, Rodney and dodgy get rich schemes thanks to Only Fools and Horses.
I do feel slightly bad for Nicky, but if he hadn’t been so big on the self promotion and been a bit more upfront and honest about his past I’d feel worse.
I hope he does launch another rowboat (see my post in the Uncle Fossil entry) so I can sit on the bank of the lake, eat sandwiches, and watch the funny fat stinky man row to the middle of the lake and start gibbering and dancing around waving a shotgun.
I agree with Lewis on feeling slightly bad for him (we aren’t whiteknights) but like Gewn said he was starting to revert back to his old self over there in the past few days. For example he started in on Michelle again, small at first, but eventually listed her sins against him and linked to a site of her’s.
Worry not, for he has a forum of his own to converse with people to fall back on! 😀
Countdown to explosive blog post by the Nickster in . . . 3 . . . 2 . . . 1 . . .
The big question is which one of his many blogs he will use to go postal.
Pattern confirmed. Old tricks, but still funny. When is he going to show up here? Have you banned him, Rusty? I kinda want to threaten him with being a gay porn target. I don’t know what that means, exactly, but I want to do it and I’m on vacation 😀
I haven’t banned Nickypoo, but I do have him set to automatically go into the moderation queue. He left a comment a few days ago, but he mostly visits to lurk and read about himself.
La Femme Nikita has officially been kicked off of the metal forum.
That could just about be a Mad Libs: “(Insulting Nom du Jour With Gay Overtones) has officially been kicked off of the ______________.”
Not to derail or anything but I just got a marketing email from lulu and will you look at some of this shit… like… “If Iowa is the Field of Dreams, then Lulu is the Publisher of Dreams.
Lulu makes any author’s dream a reality…”

Take a dose of that claptrap, add a mentally unwell guy with an IQ in the 80’s range, delusions of grandeur and a chip on his shoulder the size of fucking Jupiter and the end result is…. Nicky “Ablert” Porcine, for sure.
His mentally deficient ass probably masturbates every time he gets one of those emails.
He probably responds to them like they were personally sent to him. You think I’m kidding? He probably mentioned I.O.W.A. then typed out three pages of bands that inspired him or he met.
Considering he got into an argument with a bot version of himself on Twitter, I’d be inclined to agree with you Al…
“Considering he got into an argument with a bot version of himself on Twitter, I’d be inclined to agree with you Al…”
That may have been the greatest prank Darren McKeeman and Brian Keene ever played on anyone.
I remember years ago talking to Darren via Trillain, and he said him and his friends had an IRC bot that studied the way someone spoke then could carry on a conversation with them but imitate them at the same time. Back then they were trying to figure out a way to port it to email so Nicky and the bot could converse that way.
As you can see, they instead found a way to port it to Twitter. I didn’t know Keene was involved with that though.
It would have been far more interesting had his own stalkers not signed up there for the sole purpose of trolling him.
Perhaps next time — and there will be a next time — folks can exercise a little more restraint, if only to keep the lulls coming.
Copied from Nicky’s forum:
These are the rules of the board, pay the fuck attention. I will allow swearing.
NO PLAGIARISM
NO SLASH FICTION — yeah I am taking to the ones who got pissed at THE FANDOM WRITER
NO PORNOGRAPHY — come on this is a horror forum
NO SATANIC POSTINGS — I believe in God, but I am as dark as they get.
NO USING DEAD RELATIVES TO MAKE FUN OF PEOPLE
Don’t be too gross with the pictures. IE — you can mention Rotton.com but don’t go posting pictures of two headed abortions or something of that nature because I don’t want people puking on their keyboards.
Leave Copyrighted Marial where it lays on the original website or magazine. Watermarking such things will get you banned from this board.
No promoting sites like bitorrent.com to promote piracy of books or CDs because it hurts both musicians and writer.
I will be adding parts to the forum as they come about because this place is still new. I am still trying to figure out everything about this board host — so don’t do anything that will get this board banned from the host.
And more:
Yeah the little jokers like to impersonate my family and the guys of Lulu.com already got on them about it and took the fucking little project down from their storefront but some other jagoff is hosting the shitty little story. It’s shitty of them to write as my grandmother because she doesn’t write period.
Yeah they like to steal my story titles too and create stories using my name and my grandmother’s name then pass it off as a damn “short story” when it’s nothing but a personal attack. Thank you for coming on the forum. Erotica is nothing I will ever write but if you want to see something I’ve written go pick up AN EYE IN SHADOWS because I deal with people like that all my life.
I did a blog entry about one person who tried to stir shit up on a message board I just made myself at home at. They are behind the storefront Lake Fossil Piss, but don’t go for the fake when it comes to LAKE FOSSIL PRESS. LFP been around six years as a publisher and we’re going to be around for another 20 years. A little lesson when dealing with those kind of jokers — always get the information right from the source. The actual person who is resposible behind the website editing the site and doing the material.
They not only gun for me when they do these things, they also gun for my line ups because all they do is get a story published by me.
Some of them proved they can actually kick them back harder. I am just starting to acknowledge my public figure status but I am not rich by all means. I got jokers swamping my guestbook with fake e-mail addresses and phony names saying I need to stop writing stories — some of them come on as my characters to fuck with me too.
One of them assumed my identity with a hotmail address (nickolauspacione@hotmaik.co.uk. I am in the process of getting that e-mail address frozen.)
“It’s shitty of them to write as my grandmother”
Yuh know, part of me agrees with him, but then I recall his daily threats to incorporate real people into his own stories and it’s just hard to feel sorry for him.
Still, it’s not something I’m comfortable with.
What did his grandmother ever do?
Translation: But it’s perfectly okay for me to joke about people fucking their dead brother’s corpse and urn.
Good luck with that, Peaches.
She sent a harassing letter to an author in response to a cease and desist letter he sent to Nicky. Background info here. There’s actually a scanned image of the infamous Shirley letter floating around somewhere on the internet, too.
The little dumpling asked me if I fucked my dead relatives for fun just this morning. I figured he was looking for tips on how to do it so I told him that necrophilia like necromancy requires a good shovel. Anyway I’m behind the hotmail.co.uk address, though it’s a deliberate misspelling of his name so he might have one or two problems getting it frozen.
By the way if you’re reading this dumpling I was struck by inspiration today and have liberated the title I.O.W.A. for my amusement. I’m still looking for my own literary voice but I have to admit there’s something liberating about the voice of Jimbo, my viewpoint character, and the way he uses profanities.
Where are his personal forums? I know I’ve seen it somewhere but I can’t remember where it was.
( I just want to read the lulz.)
Thanks, Rusty, though I see no evidence that it was in fact his grandmother that wrote it. Wouldn’t put it past him to drag her into it.
But if it was indeed the stalkee (a Mr. Bennet) that wrote Nick’s grandmother into that story for spite, then I don’t blame him. Why anyone else would to it is beyond me.
I did smile at portions of the cease and desist letter, though, specifically the part claiming that Nick was engaged in “information gathering, harassment, [and] stalking.”
Because–especially given the last few days at the metal forum–that’s kinda what we do here.
Into what story, Finn? He sent a cease-and-desist letter and was given a poorly written response that could be surmised as “Nuh-uh!”
looking at the forum it seems like some innocent new people got caught in the crossfire as well. I understand the urge to mess with him, but it is a bit stalkerish.
“NO USING DEAD RELATIVES TO MAKE FUN OF PEOPLE”
Who made fun of one of his dead relatives? Did someone pass on that we don’t know about? Anyway he’s a hypocrite.
How many “snorting ashes” jokes did he make about someone’s recently deceased sibling?
And jokes about an author who passed on (after which he wrote numerous blogs and articles claiming he wasn’t nice to the guy when he was alive so he doesn’t have to be now)
And jokes about Karen’s friend with cancer?
It’s fascinating to me that someone in this world really thinks they can do and say whatever they want, but no one is allowed to do it to them.
Levy was only a dog, but he was a beloved dog. Nicky made cruel remarks after Levy died.
That’s right after the poisoned dog food, right?
That was heartbreaking Janrae it hurt to read when you announced that it happened to your pooch. It also made me mad. I always thought someone should pay for that but at the same time, no amount of money brings them back. Trust me that’s why after last month I’ll never own one agian.
Yes, it was the poisoned dog food. He died of kidney failure related to the dog food.
I doubt that I will ever get another dog. But it’s very lonely without him.
I would like to point out here, that the letter was indeed from his grandmother. I spoke to his mother on the phone and his grandmother. They called me after Nicky posted my phone number on the web.
They also friended me in IMs and we had many long conversations and I can safely say that they are all loony toons.
His mother told me how she used to lock him in the basement when she could not handle him any longer and she thought that was funny.
I got a lot of strange phone calls after the posted number, which Nicky got from the HWA directory.
I stopped the phone calls by reciting the details of a vivisection into the phone.
because I don’t want people puking on their keyboards.
He should consider that before he ever gets near a keyboard to begin with.
Wait… did Nicky poison cuss’ dog?
no. Menu foods sold poisoned dog food to people and didn’t really take responsibility for it.
Hmmm… Finn makes some vague aspersions, disputes facts, and doesn’t answer a direct question.
Hey Rusty, can we get an IP check on Finn?
Finn shows up in Tampa/St. Pete, using Roadrunner, XP, and
IE8. I think Roadrunner’s Time-Warner cable — it is in NYC, anyway — and Larry uses Optimum Online, so it’s not Larry.
My apologies then to Finn for the case of mistaken identity.
“Hmmm… Finn makes some vague aspersions, disputes facts, and doesn’t answer a direct question.”
Wow. Made no vague aspersions and disputed no facts. Was referencing the recent book ostensibly written by his grandmother, which I assumed you just missed. Didn’t seem all that necessary to elucidate.
“Finn shows up in Tampa/St. Pete, using Roadrunner, XP, and IE8.”
Wow. Been fun, guys.
Best of luck to you all.
Again, my apologies for the mistaken identity, but what you said wasn’t clear:
“But if it was indeed the stalkee (a Mr. Bennet) that wrote Nick’s grandmother into that story for spite, then I don’t blame him. Why anyone else would to it is beyond me.”
The first part of that statement (regarding Bennet) simply isn’t true, seeing as he filed the cease-and desist. He hasn’t had anything to do with Pacione, and I know Mr. Bennet to be far to mature to write someone into a story for spite.
Dagswine has a common M.O. where he assumes a sock puppet identity, makes vague claims, disputes set facts and tries turning things around — of course it never works. But the pattern was there in your statement, which is why I raised the question in the first place. This is the first time I recall seeing you here.
I’m sorry if you’re put off by this, Finn. But we’ve learned the hard way to be cautious.
And Mike, Finn’s been around for a couple of weeks at this point.
I have a fair idea of who put that story up, and I can assure everyone that it’s not a pro.
We don’t do that type of thing.
It could very easily be Dagswine who created the two books on lulu. I downloaded them, read them and laughed.
I know how Shirley and Cheryl both talk and they could not write a clear sentence to save their lives.
“And Mike, Finn’s been around for a couple of weeks at this point.”
Shows how much I’ve been paying attention to names. 🙁
