This page is about Deccus. Well, actually, it's about me again, not Deccus. Still, I checked, and there are 27 instances of typed letters assembling "Deccus," so... wait, that's 28. Hey, another rhyme. What was I going on about? Oh yes, 28 times, not counting the four others that don't count.

I departed fansite a short while before Deccus arrived. Robin also left shortly afterward, not necessarily for that reason. And I mean left, as in, left the page unupdated, and left people wondering if it would be again. Unfortunately, it was. But something was amiss. I was not aware, as I lost all interest in it once it no longer concerned me. Sometime around the end of January I started getting rather unusual e-mail. Less ususual than usual.

hey where did you get the DBZ sprit sheet? yeah I was looking at your comic and I was just woundering, because I would like to use some of the,

Uh-huh. Some of the,
What I was woundering, is "what's DBZ?" Another, from someone else answered my question.

I would just like to know where you got your Dragonball Z sprites. Thanks

Ah. Dragonballz, the show where everyone wears genie pants and flies around throwing fireballs at each other for 30 minutes and talking about it for the next 30 minutes.
Alright, that's two letters down. What's the Z? Zither? Zebra's loving companion on my third grade alphabet chart, and one of the stupidest musical instruments to ever not be a kazoo? This question was not answered, because I foolishly forgot to ask.
Whatever I did ask awarded me

Your email address was listed as the author for a comic that I was reading here: http://fan.bobandgeorge.com/Fancomics/Deccus/Deccus.html?1 and I wanted to know where the author, since it must not be you, got some of the images that they used in it. Sorry if this was a mistake.

That's fair enough. No one was deaded.
So I went back to bobandgeorge.com to see this unspectacular spectacle. In a matter of weeks, Deccus had gone from someone who mildly annoyed me one time to someone who would mediumly annoy me for more time (medium being the next salsa up from mild). The person with not the, but the two most numerous non-Anez comics available. Sure enough, hovering a mouse cursor over the big letters spelling out "Warped Reality" revealed "mailto volcabbage@cs.com." Maybe I wasn't the biggest fan of it, but I can coexist with that one. However, if the not-yet-conceived Dogaland Adventures was a trainwreck, then Author Wars was a massive chemical bomb dropped a few miles away that kills your whole family with radiation but leaves your house intact. It looked good enough, just for having backgrounds and legible lettering, but it was nothing short of atrocious to read. And the title wasn't even correct. You get the finest mediocre sprite-comic author people killing each other, so that they can't do it ever again, that' something. But it was just some pointless, incoherent journey to nowhere, which apparently outlasted most of the authors who "participated." But it was their choice. I got more e-mail asking for Author Wars cameos in one month as Deccus than saying anything at all in a whole year-fragment as "Umiliphus." Because unlike me, Deccus did care what people thought, and so was as pandery as possible, which not surprisingly results in a lot of e-mail from dopes who want to be pandered to. Even people who presumably should have known the correct address were sending idiocy to me, I mean like people whom Deccus had met in person. I informed Anez of this amissness, and he fixed it. Now, I told Anez in my own awkward way that I was an unscrupulous fiend, and that I could not be trusted to be nice to people who were confused.

Ah, hello again. A rare example of “greeting” from me You may recall but possibly don't that I made a bunch of comics a while ago as "umiliphus." Yes, er, anyway, recently it has come to my attention that an individual known as "Deccus" or some such thing has contributed miscellaneous content to that web-site of yours, and through some incident or another, his/her/its e-mail address has been listed as my own. Now, I can't say I mind this very much, because I'd never get any e-mail at all otherwise, but this seems like the sort of thing that could very quickly cause *untold amounts* of irritation to the *other* parties involved, so... I don't know. But now you do, at any rate. Or something to that effect.

Geez, sorry about that. I took over the fancomics from Robin well, that tenure didn't last long and when I put Deccus up, I must've used the code originally used for your section, and forgot to change the email address. Sorry about that. I've already changed it and I'll be sure to point it out so people know so they won't bother you any more.

More apologies. But I really was not so bothered. It was a new experience, getting someone else's e-mail. Looking at this incident as a whole, I now actually feel an amount of guilt for the part I played in the events of the following weeks, that which is documented here. But I've already started the page, so I might as well finish it. As for things being pointed out, I was unable to see how it was done. As I've shown, although less generally mean, I was still just as much of a longwinded, ungrateful, bitter introvert then, so I can only imagine it was something along the lines of "the hermit desires solitude. Do not disturb the hermit!"
Oh well. That's why I have a website now. So I don't have to e-mail people.
So anyway, our problem is resolved, and no one hates anyone more than they did before. But within another month it was happening again, and after two or three attempts at civility, I broke.

hi, i just wanna say that your comic strip rules!!!!

i hope you continue it , cause its pretty funny :)

 

oh! please could you put some character with the name "Eddie Rips" plis? i'd really appreciate

2/24/2002 Come to the white castle of fear!
No. Comic ends now! No more comic! Comic is end! "Eddie Rips" taste volcabbagian wrath of death! GURAGGAHA!

Plis! Plis! Plis! No appreciate for you!

2/27/2002 about auther wars
deccus i was wondering your comic author wars could you have a strip that shows the different authors and tell what strips they make

3/1/2002 OPP! I'VE GOT FOODS! CHUCK, CHUCK..
No. Never. I'd sooner pluck out all my eyelash hair, load it into a syringe, and inject it directly into my esophagus. People like you make me sick. It's always "gimme gimme gimme! I want, I want, I want!" What about *my* needs? WHAT ABOUT VOLCABBAGE?! No one cares about volcabbage! That's why I'm ending it all. Never again! And when people ask why, I'll say, "why ask why? Try Bud Dry." And *then* I'll eat a big bowl of fiber and go to bed early. Now if you'll excuse me, Oprah's on, gotta split, gotta go.

An additional problem, sometimes it was not possible to distinguish what was not for me and what was. So I was mean to everyone.

3/2/2002 Some Random Compliment
Your comics on bobandgeorge.com are better then the ones dave anez makes. Keep up the good work!

3/3/2002 Some Random Insult
You're a fool for thinking that! However, now that you mention it, Dave Anez is also a fool! Ah-hahahaarrrg, I'm surrounded by fools!

3/8/2002 Some Random Question
Damn, your comics have too much detail. How long does it take for you to put a comic together?

3/9/2002 Re: Some Random Question
Negative three seconds. I am a god.

But I was fortunate in this case.

3/10/2002 The Deccuss sprite
Did you make the deccuss sprite from scratch or did you edit another graphic?

o_0

3/10/2002 Re: The Deccuss sprite
Actually, I stole it from a hobo I raped/murdered last week. He won't be needing it anymore...

4/8/2002 Some random congrats
Hey! Good work, you made it to be a subcomic. Now its time to move on to the next phase and rule all of bobandgeorge!

btw- im your stupidest fan

4/8/2002 Rampant Randomnity
I can tell. I hope you die. Soon.

4/11/2002 I see your tactic
Hahahaha.
I see your tactic for making people stop emailing you. You act like a bastard and try to scare people off, so they dont give you mass emails.

It's not working, is it?

4/12/2002 I'll see your tactic and raise you a scheme
No, that's not it at all. Now stop e-mailing me, you flagrant failure.

I can't believe that's the only time I ever called anyone a flagrant failure

4/13/2002 Some random fan will stop if...
I'll stop emailing me once you add my name into your comic as a subliminal message, or a backboard sign, ect...
I was probably doing Deccus a favor by dealing with this jope.
btw- are you this evil to all your fans?

4/13/2002 In that slaughter many beardless men were killed in error.
No, I'm fairly decent to my own fans if they deserve it. However, I show no courtesy to Deccus fans.

4/13/2002 The random comeback
Fine then. I like your comics, NOT YOU, but your comics. Muahahaha

Minutes pass, random fan experiences an epiphany.

4/13/2002 Some random 20 questions
wtf?
your not deccus. who are you, and what have you done with deccus?

4/13/2002 Am very much enjoy being battery!
CONGRATURATION

I think this was a response to both of them.

6/22/2002 who r u anyway
yeah, so if your not deccus who are you? And how was your email on that bobandgeorge site?

6/23/2002 I haven't slept much recently because I'm burning up with Euro fever
SORCERY!

6/23/2002 blaarg
uh huh.
my guess is that you were a former fancoic person who got cut off because your comics were second rate and Dave messed something up and your email wound up on the site.

Sort of. I am sad to say that I lost more of my composure at this point.

6/23/2002 Ask your doctor if Rogaine is right for you.
Hogwash! *All* the fancoics, as you like to call them, there are second rate! Well, except for the third rate ones, of course. I'd have to say "Dave messed something up" just accepting any in the first place!

I think the protrozz liked its own answer better. It's been over a year...

3/3/2002 Manual sheet
Hi

Can I have a Manual sheet from Warped Reality please?

Bye, a big fan of Warped Reality

PS PS PS PS PS PS

Keep it up!

3/3/2002 Re: Manual sheet
No! Get it yourself! Manually! Ha ha ha. I crack me up.

3/23/2002 Author Wars
Are you gonna make any new comics?

Because i really like them and you haven't updated your comic for a long time now.

3/23/2002 Re: Author Wars
Sure I have. You're just not allowed to see them because you're unworthy.

4/14/2002 Re: Author Wars
Was that ment to be offensive? I was only asking.

4/14/2002 I LOVE YOU AND DON'T WANT YOU TO DIE!
Not offensive, just hurtful. If I'd wanted to be offensive I'd have called you a degenerate, sub-human, Bob and George-reading, goatspawn whore, which you probably are.

4/20/2002 Re: I LOVE YOU AND DON'T WANT YOU TO DIE!
hey....

but you are right, i am a sub-human, Bob and George-reading, goatspawn whore.

oh my god, my life sucks.

I'm gonna go and take suicide now...
Just make sure to give it back when you're done.

4/20/2002 Re: Re: I LOVE YOU AND DON'T WANT YOU TO DIE!
There you go. That's the spilit.

Even armed with the mighty artifacts of Saar-Kazm you cannot hope to overcome my apathy. Awww, ban. I'm starting to sound like an impassive Karnak.

3/24/2002 hey deccus
hey deccus out of curiosity how come you haven't up dated your comics

3/28/2002 Re: hey deccus
Because I hate you. And to a lesser extent because I'm not deccus.

3/24/2002 Permission to use a few sprites
Deccus,

You no doubt have no idea who I am and I am sorry for that. To say the least, I am a Fan Comic author. At least I might be. I do not know yet. Anyways, the point here is I need your permission as I used a few sprites that you customized.

In one of my plot lines, I used many Dr. Wily sprites and I'm really bad at customizations so sometimes I simply borrowed a sprite or two from a fan comic. More then once, you had a perfect sprite on your Warped Realities comic. Since I have decided to submit the comics and become an official fan comic, I need your permission to use the sprites. Please tell me as soon as you are able. If you say no, you do not need to explain why. I'll understand either way.

3/28/2002 PERMISSION DENIED! HA HA HA! (featuring caps lock)
>You no doubt have no idea who I am and I am sorry for that.
NOT SORRY ENOUGH! VOLCABBAGIAN LAW STATES THAT YOU MUST SLAY YOUR OWN FIRSTBORN IN MY NAME TO RESTORE HONOR TO THE GORBO CLAN OR RISK SPENDING ETERNITY READING LONGWINDED INSINCERE E-MAIL FROM TWIT BOB AND GEORGE FANS!

This is not meant to imply that all Bob and George fans are twits. Just all the ones who contacted me during this period. Also, "Gorbo" may or may not be the surname which appeared in the "from" field when I got what is being responded to here.

3/24/2002 Bob And George Fancomics
are you still working on comics the're pretty funny

This one might have been for me, but why take risks?

3/28/2002 Re: Bob And George Fancomics
Please phrase that in the form of a... actually, any form at all will do.

3/30/2002 Justin???
If your name is justin, respond. If not, respond anyways. I'm just checking something.

If your name is Justin, this is Gwant. That's right. PJ is still a pain.

3/30/2002 Yer mustard is yella
Justin's not in right now. May I take a message?

3/30/2002 RE: Yer mustard is yella
Was that a sarcastic "yes" or a wierd sarcastic "no"? I mean is this one of the other Gorbos? Then the message is: Hi from Gwant. thanks.

4/3/2002 Gwant has a message
What YOU need to know for when looniesquad.com is up 'n' running J-man:

1. Pick a nickname/surname. Deccus is fine, and according to Arysshar, you don't want your name on the site. Fine by me.
2. Have something to post. Everybody's going to have a section on the site for their own whatever. Sure, your comics are FAAN-tastic, but original comics are what I'm looking for.
3. There is no #3.

See ya.

4/5/2002 If you are seeing this, it will mean that I have been murdered
Before you were saying I was Justin. What is this "deccus" bit now? Please tell me, Gwant dearest.

I probably should have sent these along to the real J-man. But I didn't. I hate me.

3/24/2002 Author Wars
Hiya! I was wondering, would it be too late to ask you to include my author character in the comic "Author Wars"? I have asked Dave to post my comics on his site, but he hasn't returned my emails yet. I'm kinda comfused. If you want to see some of my comics, I'll send you them. But for now, here's my author sprite sheet, hope you can fit him in somehow. I REALLY like your comic, that's why I'm asking. Oh, by the way, his name is Deathwing.

Ehhh... attached was a file called “Author sheet ONLY.bmp” (complete with spaces). That's right, a *.bmp. Even worse, it had been jpeg compressed before it was saved as a *.bmp. Which means it looks awful, and takes up a lot of space. This is the equivelant of buying a webtv and only using it to watch Real Media clips. But for all I know that was just Compuserve not having any idea how to handle attachments. The only other one I ever got was this, (just in case you missed it the first time) also a *.bmp originally. It's still scary to think I was intended to see them like that, though.

I don't get this obsession with robots having claws. If I had a hand that could change into a gun and fire off unlimited bullets, why would I be afraid of some silly animorph with plastic Wolverine claws? (Animorphs being the first book series purchased exclusively for the cover art, which depicted some thing transforming morphing into some other thing. I do not believe they were ever read. Yes, so I misused the word. Make me fix it.)

This message is one of my favorites, and I regret failing to respond to it. There was just too much wrong with it to single any one thing out. I like it not just because it's the only one with RED LETTERS, but also because it's from the very same person who took extreme issue with me on this page for not being impressed. It sounds like I'm not the only one. "...but he hasn't returned my emails yet," and all that sort of thing, don't you know. I actually only registered there to harass Protrozz, but I became distracted by the site at gigglebounce.com, where I had recently been invited to start posting the nonsense that went on to form this, this site here, so I kind of forgot about the not-mine site I wasn't contributing trash to for a while.

But a rather persistent instant messenger was devoted to making certain I couldn't concentrate on anything that wasn't at someone else's expense. Now, the fansite (which sounds more and more vain every time I type it) pages never listed anyone's AIM name, just e-mail addresses. This dope never tried e-mail (at least not with the same name), and just typed "volcabbage" one day into the AIMer and hoped for the best. My conduct here is completely appropriate.

4/12/2002

I hate when people who use the netscape.com instant messenger have weird text and background colors set, because there's some "feature" that's incompatible with the antiquated compuserve version that frequently prevents me from reading any of it. Not that this is necessarily worth reading, but it's simply rude to ignore someone.

Intermission

4/16/2002


Keep in mind, this is happening in April. What's keeping RueXZ from mentioning this to "me" at the school that we apparently both go to?

4/27/2002

One thing that never seems to change is that anything with a Justin involved is sure to irritate me. While these exchanges I did quite enjoy, I suspect I was not intended to, as the Justin in this case was only ever implied. Over and over again.

5/5/2002

If they didn't, at the very least, I did.

At some point after I put this page here, the person who actually is called "Deccus" told me that its name is not Justin, and further denied any knowledge of the preceding weirdo. I just thought I would tell you. So I did.

And that's the end. Nothing more. Ever again. I hope. That's not much of an ending, but the last thing I want is to leave anyone wanting more. Least of all me.
