This is a question Crazy People off the Internet

The internet is full of mental. Ever been threatened with violence? Did it spill over into real life? Tell us your story. Or maybe you wish to buck the trend and tell us about the how you've met lots of quite nice, sane people.

Lots of normal but two seriously scary
Hmm the bomb plotter or the crazy fan - Crazy Fan first. I used to be on an internet forum for a boyband and yes I was old enough to know better a number of us got banned for being to lewd so formed a new group- it eventually was the second largest for this band. Now I met a good many people from the band following and some Im still in touch with to this day 10 years later but one got dropped hotter than a bubbling pan. I swear if she had been the first I had ever met I would have been sworn off the net for life. Over the net she was funny sassy etc. Just a week older than me we both liked the same band members. I was looking forward to meeting her. I had another web friend who was stopping with me so we both went into the City to meet her. Talk about shock. Before me stood a woman who looked at least ten years older and she had brought her mother with her who would have done ok as Grot Bags ugly sister. It was an uncomfortable few minutes trying to chat to someone who not only didn't make any form of eye contact (or even remove her sunglasses in the dark) she never smiled and I swear she hadnt had a bath in over a week. I had purchased her ticket (she paid for it) but it meant she was next to me at the concert- deep joy. At an interval I bent down to get water out of my bag and found a sunglass lens belonging to her she apparently hadnt noticed. I was pregnant at this point so was able to make my excuses about spending too much time on the net or rather on the site she hosted.

You would have thought I would have learnt my lesson- but no and although I never met this guy it was a close call. We had similar health problems and had initially gotten chatting on this health website again similar humours etc. He was a comp specialist and I was having an issue with something he offered to take me through the fixes on msn etc. We chatted for around 9 months during which he confessed to suffering a breakdown etc at some point- now I have no real issue with mental illness and indeed could understand why he had with what had come out -he sent me letters from his solicitor and psychiatrist as he wanted help drafting a reply in relation to access to his kids. He saw two from one partner un-supervised with no issue but they the other ex and the Social Workers was trying to use his mental health as justification from not seeing the other two. Why the SS were only worried about one set was beyond any comprehension- a danger to one a danger to all. Anyway I was aware of one Social Worker who was really getting his back up her letters were vile. He had cause to phone her one day whilst we were on MSN- having just received a letter from her which he scanned and sent me the last thing I heard for nearly 9 months was from him saying I told her she would have to listen if I blew the bloody building up. I was trying to explain that this probably wasnt wise words to use with such officials even if you are mad. No answer. Strange still on line- Are u ok no answer. this went on me checking every so often for answers nothing his msn account remained active for a number of days meaning it was open. I was later informed by someone from the health site that knew someone who knew him that he was serving time at HMP for bomb threats. He contacted me upon his release and Ive not been back on MSN since. He was at one point in my home city but I was away unexpectedly so had had to cry off coffee at the hospital where he was having an interview over the road from where I worked.

You forgot
to put a whole lot of "yer-but no-but" interjections into your story.

If you read the above stream of consciousness
in the style of Vicky Pollard it almost *almost* makes sense :D

I'm still
a little baffled over the sunglass lens and how it relates to a lack of Internet useage.
