UK to introduce new law to tackle stalkers like Garry's
107 replies, posted
I'd probably go insane with paranoia after the first month of dealing with a stalker like this, props to Garry.
Reading those blog posts has actually made me feel quite depressed. I know these people exist, but it's easy to put it out of your mind until you actually read their writing and hear their mindset directly in their own words, and see the way they abuse the people around them. The way he treats his parents is disgusting, the whole thing makes me feel so sad...

Also, three pages in, there hasn't actually been a single post this thread about the law itself.
It sounds like this law is aimed at exactly the situation Garry was in so that's cool.
[QUOTE=Zeke129;49250179]There are also third parties to consider. He was clearly stalking other people, and even threatening to throw acid into women's faces. At that point law enforcement needs to get involved.

Holy shit I remember that guy[/QUOTE]
I think I joined on my original account right after he got banned and was still trying to shit up the forum
I read all the parts and that guy was a fucking nutcase.
If this took place over a shorter period of time I would have assumed it was fiction. Its added a whole new level of respect for not only garry but all people that have fans or followers.

Holy shit he's still trying to get on FP after all these years[/QUOTE]

run garry
[QUOTE=Robman8908;49254469]I've got a whole new respect for Garry after reading through that, holy shit.[/QUOTE]
My thoughts exactly, props to garry for being exceptionally mature with it all.
Jesus, imagining myself in that situation, the police would have been called LONG ago.
Being on the forum for the better half of a decade, I've gotten the impression that garry can be a bit off base every now and again, but honestly if he has to deal with shit like this on a regular basis I say let him act however he damn well pleases.
im amazed at the sheer dedication this guy has
8 fucking years started over shit only a 12 year old should be mad over. what a wasted human being
-actually just nevermind, I don't feel like having to deal with Andrew-
Imagine taking garry this fucking seriously.
[QUOTE=Intoxicated Spy;49249358]Holyshit, I just skipped to the last bit to see how long the emails were going on for,
First email was Mar 10, 2007 - Fri, Nov 27, 2015 was the last one garry posted
Holy fuck.[/QUOTE]
It's amazing that someone would be that much of a no life and keep stalking and emailing someone for almost nine years straight.

I would just block them or better yet send all there email to the junk folder. And if I got emails from other email accounts I don't recognize I'd just set everyone of them to the block list.

[QUOTE=PelPix123;49262180]Garry is just tremendously nice. I've noticed it every time I've dealt with him, even back when I was a teenage cunt. He's snarky, but he's just overwhelmingly a kind person.
Honestly, I think it's part of what makes this such a nice place at the end of the day.

My favorite fucking thing he's ever said hands down has got to be,
:what:

I just googled him. He's a lot like Chris-chan, it seems. I almost feel sorry for him. His most-frequented website is a support form for autistic people, which he got banned from in 2007 for not respecting boundaries. I'm not so sure his home life was that good and he's probably quite handicapped.[/QUOTE]
Interesting does have full blown autism or autism spectrum. I have autism spectrum and I'm not a douche like this guy.
[QUOTE=JumpinJackFlash;49269972]-actually just nevermind, I don't feel like having to deal with Andrew-[/QUOTE]
I think that people should equally ignore Andrew and not exasperate his situation, and leave it up to Garry and the staff to deal with him. Encouraging him to post or being mean to him doesn't make it easier for Garry, I'd imagine. Plus it sounds like he's got real issues.
That was a very mature decision to decide to try and help him even after he had harassed you and your family. I would have just trashed any emails from that address.

Hope he posts
Heh, mikfoz and hezzy, that's nostalgic even for a lurker, the failed predictions are the best part though.
He's like the personification of envy.
Read parts 1 through 6, I seriously feel for Garry, he's got to be one helluva resilient person to go from trying to ignore him, to trying to defuse his aggression, to then attempting to put up with Andrew and try to help him. This guy has serious problems and seems to me to be far beyond help. I legitimately thought andy76 was like a 10 y/o fanboy before finding out he was almost 40 (jfc). I saw hope in him at some points throughout the blog posts, but that hope was just destroyed by the next email, in his next insane rant, desperate cry for attention, violent and horrifying remarks etc..
It's incredibly difficult to wrap my mind around this person's world, how he must perceive things and how he reacts to things. It's just so incredibly detached from reality, it's utterly delusional and somehow makes me feel sorry for this guy despite how despicable he can be. I felt mostly worried throughout the whole time I read this, especially when he mentioned stalking people he actually knows IRL.
I think all of his threats, no matter how hollow they seem, should be taken extremely seriously. Most of his lashing out and violent threats come from a need for attention, but who knows what'll make him really snap and become a real danger to himself and other people. Hopefully in time the police will realize the gravity of Andrew's case and he'll be institutionalized. Unfortunately I can't see any other way for this to end well.
props to you Garry for being a tough bastard, i probably would've gone mad myself after a few months of this kind of harassment. Let alone 7 fucking years.
