Wildwood wrote: you up next, work it out now. And of course the quintissential characteristic of a Netkook: blaming others for the rancor he himself causes. So why is it that everyone knows he is both a 'kook and a troll, but they respond to him anyway, polluting multiple groups instead of ignoring and silently laughing at him? For the very good reason that I am neither a kook nor a troll. That's just a silly but obvious attempt to demonise me so in order to try and dismiss what I say. It's textbook stuff. Seriously, the rancour between Pelan and I could easily be resolved should these things happen: 1) Pelan either owns up to having lied about stock ownership of Isomedia or else publishes the emails which he says will clear his name 2) He stops stalking around after me in various Yahoo and Google newsgroups, harrassing me with a succession of sock puppets 3) He desists from abusing me and in particular my family 4) He closes his abuse group "Bad Mr Toad" at Yahoo. Until he does those things, I'm going to keep reminding folk that he is an abusive bully who tells lies. Once he owns up to the lie and apologises, I'll drop the matter. Of course he won't admit having lied. He knows his professional credibility would be horribly undermined should he admit that he had lied and that his ISP had threatened to sue him for lying. So the conflict goes on......but I would point out that it does so because of Pelan's propensity to bully and lie, not because of my dogged determination to stand up to him. As I said, I will happily lay down arms once Pelan makes confession. http://hauntedriver.co.uk |

You've been branded a mentally ill liar by the group
alt.horror.cthulhu. It's been proven by someone who appears to be a respectable film-maker (whom you've harrassed) that you lied brazenly about receiving letters from professional organisations, in your bizarre quest to prove him a net kook and troll etc etc. Even a published friend of yours privately confided to me that you were mad, in the context of asking me to be kind to you because of that illness. And I know that you lied about receiving emails from John Pelan's ISP because their Legal Counsel Barry Maulding told me so (in an email I published with his permission). It's pretty obvious that *you* are the sick internet deviant here, O'Brien. |

He knows his professional credibility would be horribly undermined What professional credibility? His little vanity press scribblings? He's already a laughing stock on rec.collecting.books and with every post digs himself in deeper and deeper. He a pitiable, cowardly, loud-mouthed endomorphic bullyboy who hides behind the internet. I gaurantee that he wouldn't dare open his mouth in person because he knows he would get the living **** beat out of him. |

That is the best character description of John Pelan that I've heard
for a long while. He's cowed many of his cronies and customers into submission via his domineering personality and those of his peers who should know better have too many shared business interests to risk standing-up to him. Pelan DID tell a lie about his ISP to try and stop people complaining to the ISP about his abusive behaviour. He then tried to bully the ISP because they freeely admitted to me that they had reprimanded him for lying. He flew into a rage and threatened them with litigation. Oh, the irony of it! Pelan lies about owning stock in their company, and then *he* threatens to sue *them* after they find out about it. Worse, he then employs a deranged lunatic called Kevin O'Brien to claim to have received emails clearing Pelan from all charges....only, neither of them can actually publish those emails because they don't actually exist, and if they were stupid enough to fake some, Isomedia would quickly sue them both. As for 'professional credibility', I long ago rumbled the fact that Pelan keeps on referring to himself as the 'critically-acclaimed' author / editor etc etc of this or that book. But where is that critical acclaim? In five odd years, I've never yet been able to locate any. Does it exist, anywhere? http://hauntedriver.co.uk |

Kevin L. O'Brien wrote: Still another example of Barker's expert imitation of a Netkook. Netkooks love to make grandiose claims such as this, and then when everyone ignores them knowing they could never make good on their boasts they then declare victory. As I said; to the Netkook there can be only one reason why no one took him up on his grandiose offer. Of course, to any reasonable person there can be and generally are other legitimate reasons, the chief one being that no one believes the Netkook can make good. But to the Netkook silence is vindication of his claims, and so he declares victory. As Barker does here. And of course the quintissential characteristic of a Netkook: blaming others for the rancor he himself causes. Netkook, narcissist... no matter which term we use to describe Barker, we're dealing with someone so profoundly ill that he will never understand the implications or extent of his illness. He will never grow, never learn, never accept responsibility for his own self-imposed frustration. And he will never stop blaming the rest of us for his constant self-sabotage. It seems to me, then, that our only solution is to killfile everything he says. It's not as if we'd miss anything new: Barker repeats the same dull fantasies every time; refute him this year, and he'll be back next year with the same obsessive fabrications. And it's not as if anyone would ever believe Barker's lies: he wipes out his own credibility with masochistic finesse. So why are we wasting time with him? We have so many things to share, so many worthy topics to discuss, so many things to learn... but every moment spent with Barker is a blot on the day. Please: let's ignore him, once and for all.

Stop wasting your time and email the Legal Counsel through
www.isomedia.com and ask him this: "Please can Mr Barry Maulding confirm whether he reprimanded John Pelan for lying about stock ownership with his company?" That way you'll cut straight to the heart of the matter and find out who is lying. Alternatively, you could do no such thing, and persist in covering-up for an abusive friend. It just depends on whether or not you want to find out who is lying. http://hauntedriver.co.uk |

You've been branded a mentally ill liar by the group alt.horror.cthulhu. LOL! That's rich. Only in Barkerville does the opinion of one person represent the unqualified opinion of an entire newsgroup! It's been proven by someone who appears to be a respectable film-maker (whom you've harrassed) that you lied brazenly about receiving letters from professional organisations, in your bizarre quest to prove him a net kook and troll etc etc. LOL! Oh, this is priceless stuff! Only in Barkerville would the unsubtantiated accusations of a man who lied about me to third parties and forged email messages by considered proof. Even a published friend of yours privately confided to me that you were mad, in the context of asking me to be kind to you because of that illness. LOL! This is the best yet! When my friend read this, he contacted me and told me that this was most definately NOT what he told you. So again you've lied about what people say to you. By the way, still not insulted, but please feel free to try again. And I know that you lied about receiving emails from John Pelan's ISP because their Legal Counsel Barry Maulding told me so (in an email I published with his permission). LOL! It just got better. Mr. Maulding informed me that you had changed the contents of that email before you published it, and that he had told you directly that he had not reprimanded John and that he asked you to stop saying he had. It's pretty obvious that *you* are the sick internet deviant here, O'Brien. Yes, well, Barkerville is indeed a very strange place. Kevin L. O'Brien |

Thank you for your advice. I appreciate your concern.
My interest in responding to Barker is not to "win", or to inform people of the "truth" about Barker (though there may be newcomers who might take him seriously, or wonder why I do not defend myself), or to respond to his vile accusations (though again on Usenet failure to respond is often seen as an admission of guilt). I respond for two reasons: Like John I am exercising my freedom of speech; you and others are then free not to listen. What I do is akin to the saying that all that evil needs to triumph is for good men to do nothing. By all means, please feel free to killfile Barker, me, Pelan, and this thread. Were I in your place I would probably do the same (except for the reason I stated earlier). Just keep in mind that had you been subjected to Barker's vitriol you might feel differently. So leave us to our own private antechamber of Hell forever at each other's throats, but understand why we do it and pity us, not revile us. Kevin L. O'Brien |

Pains me to say it, but you're right Adams.
