There is a new message from Richard Davis:
Hey asshole.
Fuck your mama.

Never mind that Richard is the only person on this forum that routinely threatens harm or violence against another. Also, never mind that right-wing violence is far more prevalent than left-wing violence in the United States.
Not surprised, sending PM’s it’s one of his bullying tactics. He’s such an odd person and I’ve had many run ins with him over the years here. I really think he has mommy issues. Or was dropped on his head as a child one too many times. Maybe is was his mommy who kept dropping him on his head. He’s PM’d me a few times too. One of them, strangely, was a rather benign one, but many others were more like the time he threatened to drive to Michigan to beat me up. What an f’ing loser. Funny thing is he thinks he’s just the opposite.Originally Posted by Brian McFarlandBy the way, that wasn't the only FU message from him to pop up in my inbox today. Using Astromart's private message feature to fill up another member's inbox with this crazy garbage is way worse than bad form.
Well it sounds like using Astromart's PM feature to threaten people is fairly typical for him. I wonder how many others had to put up with that. I'd guess Jim B and Russ but who knows.Originally Posted by Jim Moscheck

Beyond the obvious mental issues, what a sure-fire way to lose your account.
I'm completely, absolutely, 100% convinced there's mental issues at play here.Originally Posted by James Lacey
What's always interesting when he pulls these stunts is that it's never his fault. You made him do it, you see. It's all so predictable, considering he's an obvious malignant narcissist. They never take responsibility for their bad behavior, and when you try to hold them accountable, they bully, name-call, and deflect and attack and re-write reality. Rich's favorite tactic is to pick some tiny detail that doesn't matter and then harp on it to the umpteenth degree. He will do this to the point of exhaustion and until you finally give up and conclude it's not worth it. Then he will claim a pyrrhic victory and insist he is superior to you in every way. It's actually fascinating to watch it play out over and over again.
Referencing my favorite movie. For years I used an Eyegor avatar of Marty Feldman here and on Cloudy Nights. I changed it on CN to Gene Wilder as Dr. Frankensteen.Originally Posted by Brian McFarland

Could it be Abby Normal? I wonder if he can tap dance to Puttin' on the Ritz.
