The Rusty Nail is back up and running. The blog didn’t violate any copyrights, and was supposed to have been taken off hold a lot sooner than it was, according to a support guy, who said “Whoops! Sorry about that.”
Go back there for the new entries and comments:
October 4, 2008
Pacione is publishing a story by a Grigori 3 guitarist. I thought Grigori 3 had gotten sick of Nappy at least a year ago. “More controversial than” Pacione’s acceptance at NSP? Considering that NSP tanked after accepting HOS3, may we dare to hope the same fate awaits Lake Fossil Press?
==============================
03 Oct 08 Friday
One of the authors announced for Issue Seven
Issue Seven featured author, Ray R. Wise (Darkstar Records artist,
Grigori 3’s guitarist and now signed to Code7 and PlasticHead Records
in Europe) — short story he wrote for this one is titled /Path of a
Psycho/. It’s a very controversial yarn and will be even more
controversial than my acceptence on Naked Snake Press. Also one of
the photographers in the magazine this time around I went to middle
and high school with the contributing visual artist this time around.
Publishing Ray was one of those moves I knew it would either shock
me or shock the rest of the writers in the line up but I am also
bringing back a few others who are noted Chicago’s very own this time
around. Issue Seven will have a large 815 presence this time around.
I didn’t realize I was in the largest area code to mess around with too.
I am looking to finish Issue Seven by mid-month and should have the
copies at Reggie’s Rock Room (more details talk to Apathademon) along
with copies of /Tabloid Purposes: Book Five/.
I am telling my entire graduation class to come out for this one.
Ray was telling me for almost three years he was going to make the
crossover to being an author from playing heavy metal His style I
describe as being Crime Noir, and very controversial take on the Hard
Boiled genre.
I honored to have this guy aboard for this one. /House of Cards/
is going to be part of this roster too, and this one will clock in at
nearly 160 pages when it is all said and done because I am still
waiting for writers on board for this one. The front cover is done
and the back cover is being worked on. Issue Seven by far is going to
be the most controversial of the magazine by far because many of the
stories in there will have a story that will piss some crowds off.
Well that’s what happens when you get a lot of authors with Chicago
ties or DuPage County ties in there.
There are two of us from DuPage in /Tabloid Purposes: Book Five/
and a lot of us in Issue Seven are from the 815. The 815 — a lot of
cynicism in there, and working on trying to get a few from DPC into
the mix. / Tabloid Purposes IV/ is a described to be an invitation to
a brawl — in other words someone is going to come out mauled. Issue
Seven someone is going to get mauled and a few of the stories are some
of the most transgressive I’ve seen in a long time.

ETT is back among us. Here’s her introduction:
Nicky is crying that he has only had to change his internet 3 times in 11 years, and since that got me in a nostalgic mood and to celebrate the victory of getting Comcast to dump him like his ex, I thought I’d take you back to 2001 again.
Then we move on to Nicky’s old entry.
I am here through Word of Mouth and I am from Chicago USA.
Am I the only one who thinks that sounds like a speech along the lines of “I speak the word of god, and I am from Bethlehem?”
Comments: I remember reading Dr. Suess to my kid sister who is now six and used to have them when I was a kid.
I seriously doubt he was capable of comprehending Dr. Seuss, even if he could sort of pronounce the words.
Skip ahead to May, 2005:
Enough is enough, I am tired of these people going around creating cute little communities slandering my name — “fan sites” as they call them . . .
He’s probably referring to Niction (Nicktion?), which no longer exists.
I try to get new material out there then these idiots go around trying to offer pirated versions of Tabloid Purposes II.
And he went off and used a story in TP2 that he had no permission from the author to use. Remember, it got pulled from Lulu a few weeks ago?
I am addressing every asshat out there who thinks it is funny going on as my alter ego, characters from my work, or as my story’s titles.
Well, it was funny.
I do find myself being on the brunt of a lot of things, but sometimes I don’t care.
Like the time you were video blogging, while drunk?
October 4, 2008
It’s very clear from Nicky’s latest Blogspot rant that he has no clue what the difference between a server and an ISP is.
I only had to change servers only three times.
[. . .]
A few assholes got mad and decided to force me off one server saying I had a lot to blame for it, that’s bullshit and they know it.
Nickpoo, a “server” is basically a fancy CPU that handles multiple networked connections into and out of it. An ISP is an internet service provider. You’ve never owned a “server” in your life. In the 4.5 years since I’ve run into you, you’ve dogged me using AT&T, Ameritech, Comcast, Netzero, and now you want Verizon? What else did you use, prior to 2004? AOL? Compuserve? Prodigy? Those were all dial-up, back in the day.
Then this bastard who went around stealing one of my characters and saying it got copyrighted for a game . . .
He used the name first Nicky. And, he didn’t copyright the name; he only licensed its use, for a game. There’s a difference. Did Grandpa Albert steal your middle name decades before you were born? No siree!
I noticed that one person from SomethingAwful is pissed off that I got two connections that I will be doing all in my name.
What in the hell does that sentence mean?
Seems like the little bastard brags about sneaking into one of my projects but I don’t think he’s in my anthologies.
Zombiewriter is not 50 Foot Ant. They’re two different people, dumbshit.
Regarding book signings in Chicago, Nicky informs us:
I have each box loaded up 80lbs each. I am carrying at least 75% of my bodyweight there. And up and down stairs to boot on the L.
LOL! If I carry one — yes, one — 80 lb box, I’m carrying more than 2/3 my weight. I can’t feel sorry for you, buddy.
That will be the start of the furniture search too, and storage space for it. Yeah storage will be a bitch but it’s almost needed becausE I do live in a full house. I know that I will be getting another apartment again eventually, a matter of when and trying to find something based on my income as long it doesn’t look like a total dive.
For a guy who used to be homeless, I’d think a dive wouldn’t be so bad. It’d be worse than granny’s basement, so he won’t be moving be moving out anytime soon.
Digital TV, damn that’s also a possiblity too. When I get on my own again I will have DSL and wireless.
Yes, he’ll have all the luxuries of modern life, and his authors still won’t get paid. I repeat myself, but it won’t happen anytime soon.
October 4, 2008
Nicky talks down to Autoaim, in his latest Blogspot entry.
That’s the last thing you want to do son. That douche is beyond pissed you sent a doctored picture of an asshole pointing a gun to my head. You’re pissed off because I decided to screen shot the blog entry, and for the record I didn’t give out that phone number you douche’s posted up there. You mess with my entire family son I will take that trip to Finland just to knock you into the Artic Ocean.
That’s the Gulf of Bothnia, not the Artic (nor even Arctic). Not to worry, though. Pacione can barely afford rail fare into Chicago.
I am going to take a shit on his grave when he dies. That fucker is now obsessed with my ruin that he wants to do it himself. I guess Pathogen is the one who will get the brunt of this one.
The Nickster is pissed off with a Finn, so he’s going to go after Pathogen in Chicagoland. Makes sense to me.
Looks like that asshole from Gothic.net who edited all those shitty pictures of me is still at it too and yeah he’s got a youtube.com account too trying to make me look like something I am not.
Wait. What did I miss? Does anyone have links for this stuff?
October 3, 2008
He’s got a new entry on Blogspot complaining about dial-up, but it’s far from a cross-post of his WordPress entry.
The failure of dial-up internet is the slow uploads; I am getting Verizon in the house well when I get it I can take the connection with me when I get it fired up. There are six USB ports on my computer, and I will be getting two more multi-ports which were carried over from my old computers.
Nicky needs a new nickname: “Six Ports.” It’s a nice alternative to “Two Kitchens.” He talks about the portability of wireless, seems to think it’s his Verizon connection that he can use while on the road. Most hotels/motels that offer free wireless, issue the password when you check in, or leave a placard on the desk in the room, listing it. Nickypoo, it’s your wireless card that’s portable, not your ISP account. You still have to cadge onto someone else’s ISP account.
Pay in advance as how I want to get this set up. Russo fucked up my Comcast account when she didn’t return the box and the modem.
Bullshit. He’s been out of that apartment for over a year now, and using granny’s Comcast account until very recently. Besides, it was his responsibility to return the cable modem. I’m not sure what “box” he means, unless it was a converter box for cable TV.
When I get Verizon in place, this will free up my phone – and will use the dial up as an emergency system.
He really doesn’t seem to have much of a grasp of the way DSL works, does he? If the phone line goes out, dial-up won’t work, either.
just paid up one of the writers on Tabloid Purposes: Book Five – I felt bad that she had to pay $25.00 for a copy of the book she was in so I gave her $26.00 for her story.
So, she got $1 for her story, and a contributor copy. That’s mighty generous.
. . . if some of my articles manages to pay for Chinese when I go out, then that would be a good day in my book.
Around here, I can get a pint of hot and sour, egg drop, or wonton soup for $1.25. Just sayin’.
What I want to see happen is have unlimited internet access and not paying a mint for it. I think $60.00 is a steal if you get wireless internet and they told me it is unlimited access.
I’ve never heard of broadband that isn’t unlimited access, regardless of whether you hardwire into the modem or plug a wireless router into it.
Who is to blame really for me losing access to Comcast? Not really myself, but I have to say one asshole who was pissed off at the fact he got in trouble for violating my copyright on another article I wrote for AssociatedContent.com . . .
No, Nicky’s never to blame for his actions. He still doesn’t understand that AC hold the copyrights to any articles he posts there. It’s part of the TOS. Repeat after me, Nicky: you DO NOT retain copyrights to anything you post at AC.
October 3, 2008
Nicky’s got another new entry on his WordPress.
I am signed for a two year contract with Verizon Wireless and the only thing I have with them is the internet.
ROFLMAO. Verizon Wireless is the cell phone division of the company.
When someone is exactly how they are in real life, and that shows how they are online it makes people nervous.
Nervous? Not at all. It just proves that he’s a jackass IRL, too.
It seems like they would do everything that violates someone’s intellectual property and rape the living hell out of it.
I thought someone had to have intellect as a prerequisite to producing intellectual property. No intellect = no intellectual property. No intellectual property = no violation.
I can see where the natives are going to be a little more restless because this post is taking a piss upon a hornet’s nest, especially when one “Christian” from Seton Hall University is picking fights on the trollish blogs.
I think he’s talking about Mike here, but has the name of the school wrong.
. . . the only one I have to answer to is me.
Don’t forget about granny and Uncle Don, Peaches.
Then again I am dealing with a fucker who stole my entries word for word too when I had a journal with diary-x (turns out that The Crusty Fail is Widdle Baby Nicky from Xanga, remember that piece of white trash?)
He’s confusing me with ExposeTheTard, again. *sigh*
What you want to hear is this if I wanted to make my bulletin public I WOULD HAVE DONE IT MYSELF.
You beamed it out to everyone on your friends list, moron.
. . . violating every damn copyright I rightfully carry on articles that are published on Associated Content.
How many times do we have to tell you, Peaches, that once you post something on AC, you no longer retain copyrights?
About $60.00 paid towards it and will be paying $60.00 for my wireless internet connection which I am going to have inside of a week.
I know pricing varies from state to state, and has to do with state taxes imposed on phone service, but $60 a month seems awfully high to me.
October 3, 2008
Nickypoo has a new entry on his WordPress, complaining about using dial-up. How many times has he had to change ISPs? I’ve lost track.
But this is what I have right now until I get in touch with a broadband company, and yeah this is going to be something that was a victory for them for right now because they managed to get my IP tossed from one server, but I am paying for dial-up and I only use one phone line for that.
My hat’s off to whoever managed to get his cable modem service to ditch him.
When your own cousin makes fun of you about having dial-up and rubs one’s face into it. But at least I will be able to get copies of the needed anthologies for upcoming signings.
Seriously, Nicky, you could order copies of your own crappy books from any public library computer. So, where are these signings, Peaches? No doubt, your many fans among the gothic community will want to show up to buy your books.
On the other hand, I find it amusing that even his cousin’s making fun of him.
. . . it was a total bitch for me to get a guy out here to get the phones rewired to have one line separated from my family’s line. This is all one fuckers doing and he will pay for it, that shaved headed fag from Finland had a lot to do with this.
He’s blaming this on Autoaim.cfg. Still, I don’t understand why anyone from the phone company would have to come out to do any rewiring. They should be able to key it into the billing system, and put in the order for someone to flip a switch, so to speak in a central office, to enable a second phone line over the existing wiring.
I know I plan to go wireless and yes this is going to be the fun of it too because when I get my laptop I will be able to go on the road with video and all of that too.
It’s becoming a little clearer. He doesn’t have a laptop yet. His cousins only bought his desktop this past January. Has he even paid them back for it, yet? How’s he going to pay for a new laptop?
The loser who calls himself ZombieWriter started to see patterns with an asshole who calls himself Peter_Barnes; I think there is something going here – they go around plagiarizing my characters and all of that thinking it being great amusement.
WTF? Does ZW even know about Peter_Barnes? I can guarantee that “Barnes” never wrote any Nicky fanfic.
They see it as a profit when I lost some high speed connectivity, well it is a temporary thing . . .
Lulz is more like it.
They made it clear that sites like Associated Content are their worst nightmare . . .
I would have described it as a joke, myself.
The rest of the entry rails on about Pathogen and SomethingAwful. *yawn*

Nicky posted a bulletin early today. I’ll believe he’s paying his authors the moment one or more of them confirm it. I’m curious to know what criteria he uses to determine which authors get paid and which don’t, especially since he doesn’t issue contracts.
This does appear to confirm that Nicky lost his Comcast internet access, and has been using dial-up. But, I’m a little confused about Verizon, because he was complaining about AT&T a week or so ago. How on earth does Nicky expect to pay for DSL (I can’t see him paying for Verizon’s FIOS service), if he can’t pay his authors? The other notable thing is that it seems pretty obvious that his family made him get his own phone line.
===============================
Oct 2, 2008 1:03 PM
Subject: well back online with Netzero
Body: and ordering books up and getting the first wave of authors paid
tomorrow. I am also trying to get Verizon in the house because dial up
is so fucking fustrating when watching video. I am dreading what my
phone bill will be because this connection is also on my phone too (damn
those assholes on SA for getting me separated from Comcast.
)
The bills I have to pay just to get my connection running and I am not
going to be home for a few days next week because I have a doctors
appointment and more details will be revealed later on.

DJ Pathogen posted the following on SomethingAwful. He goes off on Pathogen, drags Darren McKeeman into it, and brags about getting paid for his articles on Associated Content. I really want to know how much Nicky has earned from his AC rants. Would it even cover the cost of a Happy Meal?
===============================
I posted:
Right now you’re not a homo? Do you turn into one when the moon is full? Homocanthropy, as it were. Anyway, I’d like you to consider a couple of things:
1) SomethingAwful has over 118,000 members. There’s been, oh, maybe two murderers on the whole forum, which your average goon would probably be hard-pressed to name. 2 is .000016949% of the forum. That’s probably a percentage that reflects non-killers vs killers in everyday society. By your logic, since we live in society, we are all just as bad as murderers. Except you, since you don’t live in society, you live in your grandma’s basement.
2) You, on the other hand, were personally friends with a murderer, did not tell the police what you knew about his misdeeds, and seem genuinely upset that he was made to pay for his crimes.
Which one is actually more complicit in murder here?
The Nickman posted:
Do you think your credibility will be ruined knowing that you’re now affilated with the Something Awful goons, especially when a few of them encourage elder abuse too? You’re proving several of my articles true and you’re fitting the picture I painted with that article on Associated Content each day with your assholery. You hosed yourself and give up now from being a promoter because you’re going to poison the community in Chicago. You brought the same shithead nature that McKeeman had when he ran Gothic.net — now he lost the loving site because of a small town newspaper but the more I get noticed with Associated Content.com I am getting paid for it. I get paid from the clout I get rear end in a top hat. Keep linking those articles prick you’re just another paycheck to me. Especially since Chicago brought a child molester in with open arms.
I just gave you a better reason to hate me rear end in a top hat. What you going to do take turns burning that non-fiction book you bought from lulu.com just because I put you on the spot there — I know your kind. I don’t need to know people like you because I used to put a fist in the face of people like you.
I don’t think he understood the question.
