I think most old threads went down the memory hole as Ian attempted to erase all of his posts from day one.
Absolutely. I remember all too well how I would think "Well, he's just a crazy old uncle -- a bit too passionate, but still basically a guy with his heart in the right place" but the truth is, however much latitude he was given, he'd always go too far. Poor guy. Still, he served, he is counted ...

Re: OT: Brazil Rocinha drug lord 'Nem' jailed for 12 years
He pretty much got banned from every Pats board he was on....at times threatening other members with bodily harm. You knew it was only a matter of time before his inevitable meltdown would occurr. Sometimes coming back as another identity, including his wife and a female fan. I'm not sure if I would classify it as comical or just plain sad.
The Linda the Pats Fan run was short...I almost missed it. I remember thinking, "Damn, this chick talks and swears just like a guy." (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Last I saw him, he was posting on Bleacher Report.

Didn't also spread a rumor or bad mouth Ian on other fan boards? I remember he did something else that was pretty low beyond threatening other posters.

Didn't he also get banned from his "own" Patriots board? The story I had heard was that he was banned from one Patriots fan board and decided to start his own. Eventually he became so unbearable that the other mods banned him.
As for the stories of him hitting hard times financially, someone else noted that he while he claimed to have lost his car, TV, etc, he never seems to lose his PC or internet access.

The last straw was he harassed Ian at home via phone over a suspension for threatening another poster... Ian had enough.
Sometimes I wonder if NEM is really "Steve from Fall River"....

Apparently, this feint only works if you've remembered to have that flag of Congo attached to your front fender.
Good tip. Thanks.
I never met NEM, but GOD, I miss him.

Yes, got banned from his own board due to soliciting donations from other members as I recall. Got banned from KFFL (twice) and Patriots Planet. Used to post as "AWOM" too many years ago - claimed it was "A Weis Old Man".
