A certain fan of mine is harassing other artists.
9 years ago
Hi.
I can't keep quiet about this any longer, because I have HAD. ENOUGH.
I have a certain fanboy. An obsessive, insane one who simply does not understand that enough is enough, or that his actions are unacceptable. He has been harassing artists, asking for free art, requesting trades, creepy RP, and more, all while roleplaying as Greta, one of my somewhat well-known inkblot toon characters.
THIS PERSON... IS NOT ME. I AM NOT DOING THIS.
So if you get a message from someone claiming to be "Chunk Skunk Greta" or whatever account he's hopped to, PLEASE just keep in mind that I did NOT encourage this behavior, nor did I ask him to do this. Quite the opposite, actually.
I have asked him to stop harassing other artists and asking for free stuff. I have asked him to stop contacting me. I gave him MANY chances to back off and just stop what he's doing.
And now that he's actually targeting my best friends, I HAVE HAD ENOUGH. If making this into a spectacle and calling him out is the only way to stop this madness, then fine.
Find something else to do, jackass.
And just FYI?
This person is the sole reason I am not drawing ANY inkblot toons lately. Because I don't want to encourage his behavior.

Step back.
Realize that the artist who you apparently love and respect has asked you to stop what you are doing.
This is not a complicated math equation.
Knowing that he has asked you to stop, and that you have been marked as a harassing element should tell you one thing.
If you appreciate his work so much, and want to show your respect, then trust me when I tell you that the absolute VERY best thing for you to do right now is to clear out your account and cease any activity where you assume or utilize the roles of any of his characters.
Lapinbeau's journal is not an action you should take lightly. Enough with the mental gymnastics that place you in an acceptable light.
They have no need to further contact you seeing as this journal clearly states that they want it to stop in its entirety.
Inkblots are hard to come by around that are decently drawn and you do thus shit?
- Submit me your idea
- Inquire with lapinbeau
- Correspond to my inbox
- Send me naked pictures
Ask for them and maybe you get them.
Ok this was ripped from your page. You are basically asking people if you want a picture request one from Lapin.. for free.. right?
This.. this.. this is just a NEW LEVEL OF FUCKING LOW!!!!!! Lapin is BARELY making a living at his art and you want people to harass him for free art..
That's like taking someones lively hood away from them! I have done some really fucked up shit in my life.. nothing.. not a goddamned thing.. compares to this.
And you are asking for people to send them naked pictures... what.. the.. fuck. That violates SOMETHING on here.. some TOS is violated because of this.
And the ONLY reason you have said you're sorry.. is because someone called you out on your bullshit!!!
After that you requested to pay through mail service but you said you wanted to protect your identity while at the same time asking for his address.
It's creepy! And seriously uncool.
What do you call this?
i knew one who constantly wanted photoshoots in SL, and then cancels every time. wanted nothing but the same rimming RP.
some people will not get a clue. they won't.
i've found rl info on them, and find they live in some wierd group home situation, or their house is creepy looking with.. like.. .chalk drawing all over their walls, and marker notes on their fridge... etc...
the term for that type is the "incompetent suitor"
LOVE ME!!!!
i kid. that sucks. i seen asshats like that before. hope they get the message
It doesn't look like this guy meant any harm, but I can certainly see where someone gallavanting as one of your characters would be damn annoying and harmful to your "brand" as it were.
Haven't gotten to the 3rd one yet. >.>
Bill Hodges has a bigger role in Mercedes and End of Watch, and it's good that they brought back Brady Hartsfield for the third, even if he suddenly has telepathic powers similar to Carrie's (which is probably why King ended it in a trilogy, the previous books seemed more grounded in reality).
I still cant believe people like this exist. I shouldn't be surprised but I continue to be. Fucking Hell.
You see people get away with this shit because nothing gets done to them. Their account is banned? They have six others. They get blacklisted by the community? It's a big community so everyone doesn't know about what someone did. Is there a solution?
No.
You can block, report, blacklist, shame or whatever else.. but if these people keep thinking that they are entitled to do this shit.. they'll keep doing it.
No need for that. :|
Lapin, here's Ritts' encounter with this person. Please feel free to include this in any report you send in against them, their behavior is incredibly off putting and I think it could help your case.
Thank you for the information. I have to go apologize to Ritts for this person's behavior now.
