Scott Nestle

[Emperor]

One ScottNestle seems to be enacting a Night of the Long Knives on the small press entries over on Wikipedia (I've tracked down his proposing for deletion the entries: FutureQuake, Arthur Wyatt, Edward Berridge, Adrian Bamforth, Matt Timson, Commercial Suicide, Kieron Gillen, Pony School and Action Stations).

Over there someone has said:

On a completely unrelated note, it should also be noted that 'Scott Nestle' is a notorious serial troll who has been banned from the 2 main official and unofficial 2000ad fansites on the internet (the creators of the book this article describes are contributors to the same websites), and has been banned repeatedly, under several usernames, from both. Going to either website (2000adonline and 2000adreview) and typing the name Scott Nestle (or his original username on both websites - 'Scojo') should easily verify this. This has the faint whiff of the slightly stalker-esque behaviour where he made a nuisance of himself to professional writers and artists on the forums where he was banned.

The individual claims they are a different person (which would be an interesting coincidence) but I'd be grateful if someone could give me a brief overview (mild swearing optional) so I can try and work what is actually going on (as I seemed to have missed all the fun).

Just when you thought the socially fucktarded twat had reached the deepest depths of bitter patheticness, he proves us wrong yet again.

[Funt Solo]

If this isn't the same psychopath that has long-running arguments with himself, falsely accuses people of hideous crimes in public forums,  believes himself to be a greater creator than any published creator he talks to and holds a ridiculous grudge against people that have given him a lot more chances than he really deserves, then I will eat my hat, without seasoning.

He is, I understand, solely responsible for the death of the 2000AD Yahoo forum, where he still holds court, usually alone.

He's earned himself a permanent ban from this message board, which is otherwise completely self-regulating.  In the year and more I've been posting here nobody has even been warned by the single administrator, let alone banned.  I know of only two threads that have been deleted, and those were at the behest of the original poster.  For him to be permanently banned is some achievement.

Occasionally I think to myself, 'Oh my god, I have no life', then I come on here and someone mentions Socojo...

And I breath a huge sigh of relief...

[I, Cosh]

This is really creepy. I've just logged on to Urban Dead to be confronted with the message "Scott Nestel destroyed the generator."

"I'd be grateful if someone could give me a brief overview (mild swearing optional)"

The chances of there being two Scott Nestle/Nestels who feels strongly enough about the work of the likes of Arthur Wyatt and Matt Timson, to want them deleting from Wiki are so large as to be unfeasible.

(From memory, Matt, in particular, already has grounds to hunt down the little rectal polyp and do him serious harm. At this point, I'd like to volunteer to help ...)

It's the same smelly, drooling, socially crippled, mentally deficient little cockmonkey ... there's absolutely no doubt in my mind.

Cheers!

If you look at 'real name' you will see it's Arthur Wyatt having a bit of fun in the Zombie Street Team.

Wicked!

He is, I understand, solely responsible for the death of the 2000AD Yahoo forum

He is also responsible for completely destroying the old Wednesday night chat sessions that we used to have on IRC* and for damaging alt.comics.2000ad beyond repair.

He really is an online cancer.







*Chatters used to include: Gordon Rennie, Si Spurrier, Frazer Irving, Si Fraser, Colin Wilson, Greg Staples, Dylan Teague, Dom Reardon and Jock (IIRC, but correct me if I'm wrong on some of these). Mongo really fucked up a cracking night (lunchbox/bunny costume combination aside).

(lunchbox/bunny costume combination aside).

I wish people would stop reminding me about that...

[Wils]

Hehe. Other than me, Gordon and Si, I forget who else was there that night. Scarily, there was someone else there that night that actually liked what he saw. [shudder]

[W. R. Logan]

wasn't me, I mean it wasn't me who liked it

[Dudley]

Just to counsel calm, there's no reason to suppose it's the usual Scott.  The tone of voice is quite different, he's using Wikipedia lingo, and *our* Scott tends to hide behind pseudonyms wherever possible.  

[Wils]

Also, I've now noticed they've spelt his surname wrong. Using Mongo as a pseudonym gives us weight enough to get the deletion proposals ignored, though.

Possibly Cairns making a reappearance?

[GordonR]

It's nothing like scojo, and he's pretty much net-illiterate for stuff like this.

Also, to be fair, it's not like posterity's going to miss any of the stuff proposed for deletion.

[Quirkafleeg]

Yeah, don't sound like the true Scojo to me (they seem reasonably competant for a start) and the targets are not really his usual obsessions (Timson aside perhaps)
