I'm selling my tickets to the show in Oakland now, this is a low I could have never predicted from him despite all previous lows. No matter what your said to him, your audience is minuscule in comparison to the throws of people his words are read by. If he doesn't know better he's truly lost it and not worth paying another cent towards.

Well you could definitely go to the authorities about him cyber-bullying (cyber-b0llying) you... most PD's don't take this kind of stuff lightly. His threats could actually land him in court, even if you don't seek a personal suit, there could easily be a civil one. You should see if there are any free legal resources in your area to consult with, there are often orgs around that aid LGBT on matters like this... just for advice, not to necessarily pursue. But you should also contact your local PD and Facebook and report the threats. Is the transcript of the message here legit: http://jennieplusone.tumblr.com/post...point-with-his

Honestly there is no excuse that kind of behavior, and it taking to a level beyond words. Violently threatening someone like this is illegal, plain and simple. Even if you don't pursue it, I wouldn't be surprised if the authorities do.

I'll be honest... just kinda want it to go away at this point... the last thing I want is my life to be battling a guy like that in court... I mean... jesus... once again maybe I'm just freaked out an over reacting... but the dude scares me... not because of legal stuff... I know I have a better case than he does... but it's just like... beyond that... I mean... seriously... if he's willing to say shit like that, who knows what he'd really do... then again, it might just be all talk... I dunno... I'm a lot more frazzled by this than I realized... I mean... he fucking said he wanted to beat me up if he ever saw me? Who the fuck says that kind of shit because of someone being critical about them on the internet as a fan.

I mean fuck... I deal with fans of my work now and again who don't like me as a person, or my pedals, or whatever... and hell, I'll ban the occasional troll from my forums or facebook page... but this shit... this shit is just fucked up.
I would also say it's not really worth going to court over, there's no way you're ever going to see that D-bag in real life anyway. Just do whatever gives you the most peace of mind I guess.

Even if not going to court, it should still be reported.

Also not sure if it was Portland, OR or ME but if OR here are a few resources maybe worth contacting just for advice:

Get a refund if you can instead.

I bet he didn't even have any strong opinions of your pedal and just wanted to slander you in SOME way after getting butthurt about reading this:

http://forums.netphoria.org/showthre...69#post3752869

You gotta admit though, it'd be awkward as fuck if he did like it while you're publicly talking about him like that.

Though it's not like you have to like what he's doing. And none of this pedal-making stuff was contractually binding, none of it was business, it seems more like a personal favour. Of all the things for Billy to inflate his ego with... this is childish to the extreme.

Go and sing and play some guitar into a cassette recorder, while you're still feeling fucked up and emotional.

Billy is scum, and his comments and actions are inexcusable

with that said

what were you thinking dissing your client publicly? using your name, associated with your business? this really perplexes me.
