Feb 28th From Marty

Mike,monstermash the paul drexler dealer his postings on azb is the post my lawyer is sure he can prosecute for defamation because his posting is on google search under my name weve called alot od sources on this guys postings because the sites not cach protected its free for the strifers to capitlize so thats the postings by that guy monstermash thats the real big issue his lies and postings are the most damaging to us all if u can get his strife postings removed youll be given the site and all of us a clear sign you mean buisness and your not a strifer but a passionate person who loves pool and watch my show tommorow if u get these posts deleted things are going to be alot better as for me posting again its not important just removing the lies and strife damaging our future is whats important.take care always anybody jumping on a strife post is equally responsible as thier the ones that take the cancer cell and make a tumor.appreciate anytime spent of resolution for our future.

Marty, you sent me this message 40 minutes ago and after 25 minutes
decided that I was targeting you by not deleting whatever post it is
that you are talking about. You may have been sitting at your computer
waiting for a reply, but I have not been sitting here waiting for your
message. Because someone doesn't do something in the time that you
give them, does not mean that they are ignoring you. Maybe it means
that they have a life.

Again, please send me a LINK to whatever post it is that you are
talking about. I will be glad to look at the post, but I do not
guarantee that I will remove anything. I need an actual link. I am not
going to review every post that this user has made looking for
whichever post it is that you are upset about.

I wish you all of the luck in the world with your league system. We
will be happy to run any PR that you submit to us. But I hope you
understand that I am a little hesitant to work together on a project
with you when for the last week, I have heard from numerous people
that you have been telling the world that Jerry and I are the worst
things to ever happen to pool.

From what I understand (I have not gone back to check this out
myself), you told your viewers yesterday that your plans (which you
describe as being backed by major companies outside of pool) could not
go through until Jerry and I were dead. As you can imagine, I was a
little troubled to hear this.

Again, please send a LINK to the thread that you want me to look at. I
do NOT read every thread and I only know that there is a problem with
users report a thread to me. Also, I am NOT sitting by my computer
waiting for your reply to come in. I have things to do tonight and I
will check my email later to see if you replied.

Thanks,
Mike

Marty, I have been thinking about this situation for the better part
of the evening. Maybe I am reading it wrong, but this is what I see.

You have been verbally attacking me for years saying that I stole
AzBilliards from you, which we know has no backing in reality at all.

You started streaming in the last week and say negative things and
lies about us multiple times on each show.

Supposedly you made a comment yesterday that Jerry and I need to die
in order for your plans for pool to happen.

Now you are pulling up posts that mention you on the forums (some of
them going back almost seven years) and you want them removed. In
return for me removing any posts that mention you on the forums, you
will stop saying bad things about me and spreading lies?

You are not offering to remove any of the lies that you have spread
about me for years now.

And if I don't remove those threads, you are going to lie about me
more on ustream and you are also threatening to spread lies about me
on the IP stream at Valley Forge.

Is that pretty much what you are saying?

6:04 this morning from Marty

Mike,You posted a pm in open forum starting a stifling thread so your intentions are obviously to hurt of defame so here.s what's been done that post u started by putting my pm to open forum is going to be a stifling move that will be for our legal team to pursue a law suit.Youve stepped out of bounds with your stifling ways as expected so this relationship s over and the doors closed forever now remove your post or I sign the defamation law suit today balls in your court.Lowest of the low those links I sent on your site are documented records on file with attorney this new post u made was added to the file of defamation threads your behind all of them IMO my suggestion is remove every link I sent u plus your dirtbag pm post u sure are a low life to do that to anybody cya in court Mike Howerton this eventually was going to happen after u stabbed me in back at DCC.Nobody ever said u should die or Jerry the stifling postings I said need to stop get your stories straight and ask Jerry if he didn't twist what I said for what reason?people in chat even told him he wasn't being truthfully from what I meant .

I think that is everything up to now.

Mike
 
I am pretty sure that Marty could give me the 8 on a big table. I have never claimed to be a world beater and have in fact said many times that I figured out very early on that I wasn't going to make my mark on the world of pool with a cue in my hand.

On the other hand, he has spent so much time spreading lies and badmouthing me that it is getting old. He has been telling the same lies for 10 years now and we both know that they have no basis in reality. That doesn't stop him and it doesn't stop his "friends" from listening to them.

I do worry about his mental health. I think he might really need some help.

Mike
 
yeah good luck finding a lawyer to sue a message board for defamation of character... most courts have stood behind the immunity provided by 47 USC 230

edited to add: not to mention you have to have a good reputation before anyone can ruin it

i've been called many things and by n large don't give a shit, but, it pisses me off when i'm clueless with regards to what some mallethead calls me...WTF is a "strifer":confused:

I'm guessing Marty got himself one of those "word of the day" calendars and a couple of days ago the word was strife
 
It seems that Marty's having a manic episode. It will get worse before it gets better. He needs to be stabilized on meds, start taking them again, whether at home or hospital, or it will soon become florid psychosis and the police/ER will be the only option. Sounds like he's pretty well cooked by the looks of Mike's correspondence. A manic rage is truly something to behold, both in and out of himself.
 
After roughly following this thread, I am worried about Marty... Doesn't he have family or friends who would seek help for him?

S.G.
 
Mike, this is getting pretty serious. He says we will be tried by a jury of our pears. I would file a motion right away asking to be tried by a bowl of cherries instead. They just seem to have a brighter outlook on life.

I don't care who you are, that's some funny chit. Well played, sir.


Eric >lol
 
Funny thing is is that he talks so much about suing this person and that person for defracment of character yet he has sent numerous people PM's will harmful threats!! Does he not know about time stamps and IP address that link him to his own threats?? What a daft and silly man he is. It truly is sad that his post and PM's are to get attention to his miserable and, mostly likely, jaded life. With all of his BS he wouldn't have a case to sue anybody because of his recorded posts and PM's through his IP Address.. What a silly silly little c+ck man :lol:

I hate to say this to the board but dont bother venting on his ongoings and outlandish post or PM's.. It only fuels his discontent towards everybody in the pool world. From the banger to the top pros.... He's a nutbag and the best way to oust a douche like himself is to straight ignore him. The Internet and trolling of this board is his way of jerking off all over the keyboard with disgusted delight. let the F++cker rot is what you should do. Sick or not responding anymore in this thread is enabling his Bi-polar or whatever his mental or disabling disease is..

So saying that I vote to never post in any thread (involving this dirtbag) that has his named attached to it. If you do (positive or negative) you only add to his insanity!!

Do what you will but if you keep posting about this you keep Marty in shi+s and giggles and thats the problem!!

DONT FEED THE TROLL!!!


ATTENTION MODERATORS!!!!

We had this problem with one other person pulling the same crap on another board and they blocked ever IP address he used (cafe.. Friends home.. Whatever..) and it became too much of a hassle (from what we gathered) for him to carry on and he ran out of spots and stop posting. We all can see that he is very bad for the board (and POOL IN GENERAL) so I would look into this.. It was a very good thing :thumbup:

Truly made me laugh out loud. I've always been partial to peaches myself.
 
JAM,

Zuglan and Mike and I are not alone. Lots of folks have been at the bitter end of Herman's rope. I remember back during the Camel Tour when Marty demanded that RJ Reynolds put him on their health insurance plan.

I happened to be interviewing Larry Kiger, the manager of that program, at the time and Marty stomped into the room and demanded health insurance. Kiger asked Marty why he should get health insurance from RJR. Marty replied: "I play in your events, so I am your employee and I deserve all of the rights of your other employees."

Kiger paused. He could not believe what he was hearing. Then he said: "You play on the Camel Tour and that makes you an employee?" Marty said: "Of course it does."

So Kiger reached in his pocket, pulled out the entry fee amount for that event, handed it to Marty and said: "You're fired, get out."

What a sense of entitlement some folks have. When will they learn that playing great shape entitles you to another shot, nothing else? If you can't earn a living at pool in America, and very few can, the world still owes you nothing. You are only owed whatever you create for yourself.

Lmao- Hope to meet Mr Kiger some day :p i owe him a drink, rotfl.
 
Mike, this is getting pretty serious. He says we will be tried by a jury of our pears. I would file a motion right away asking to be tried by a bowl of cherries instead. They just seem to have a brighter outlook on life.

But he didn't say what kind of "pears" Jerry. I.e. Bosc pears? Asian Pears? Bartlett pears? Or a mix? Afterall, if we're going to lock-in on one specific fruit, we'd want the jury to represent all genus of pears, right?

-Sean <-- wants it on record that he likes *all* pears
 
y'all know that you probably cannot prove that "propoolplayer" is Marty on any of these chats don't you?

There is probably an electronic trail somewhere but good luck getting access to it.

Why is is that everyone claiming to be a pro by using "pro" in their internet handles never won any top titles? This is the only sport where you are a professional just by saying you are one.

I think I am going to claim to be a pro from now on. Make a web page and everything.

I bet I could land some corporate gigs, impress the clueless, and feel really superior on internet message boards.......

The guys at the corner bar already think I am a pro so why not.

From now on you will all address me as ProPlayer1 - got it?

it might take a subpoena or 2 but finding out PPP is MH would not be much of a challenge if money was involved imho.

One day if Marty keeps up this level of hatred either he is going to hurt someone or someone is going to hurt him. You simply can't go around threatening to put a bullet in peoples heads forever without some sort of karmic reckoning.

At least I hope you can't.

With pool's luck Marty will hit the lottery and become the new pool czar.

You would think so but i have seen at least 2 guys as bad as MH who never got theirs. I remember one guys funeral where everyone said "he told it like it is" meanwhile he was just a hateful ***** like MH not a single good quality. Life aint fair.
