Real or probably fake...?

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

I think this is sad & pretty delusional. Help is required.

What do you think? Check some of the stuff on the 'Andrew Eldritch' page & that of the poster.

He grew his hair back and changed his accent.

Also, she's writing his autobiography? I'm quite sure Eldritch wouldn't trust someone to write his biography who doesn't know what "autobiography" means...

Obviously some kind of art/theater project.

This is the guy who she claims is Eldritch, recently released from a loony bin:

I find the whole thing weird, creepy and stalkerish. It's no wonder that Eldritch doesn't engage with his fans when this is an (admittedly extreme) example of what they get up to.

I don't think that attempting to diagnose mental illness via the internet is particularly a good idea. There's already enough stigma attached to mental health issues; equating mental illness and bad behaviour is not helping.

I would like to add to the words of mark that a lot of bad behavior is in a great percent hidden behind so called "mental" illness in fb or other communication channels

And FWIW I don't think this is helping either. Creepy stalker behaviour is creepy stalker behaviour whether done in meatspace or online.

To spare you a triple block of quotes: Everything Mark said.

My brain just went "NOPE" after about two seconds of that video (although they're gonna be happy about all the page views from this forum now). Gross.

Creepy stalker behaviour on joe public is wrong wrong wrong. Creepy stalker behaviour on a celebrity 'Intellectual Love God' is wrong (in small letters) and comes with the territory I'm afraid.

I can't see no "creepy stalker* behaviour" there ... :wink: ... they are just playin' on their dreaming in public, hell, what a crime* ... :roll: ...

*never forget "stalking" is illegal and a prosecutable crime!

Who's in the wrong? The girl or more in my opinion the nutter who has made her believe that he is Andrew Eldritch.

Reading her thread it suggests the police are already involved.

Just because someone is in the public eye doesn't make it any less wrong (in any kind of letters) to impersonate them. The fact that there will always be some idiots who pull stupid sh!t like that is no excuse.

(And for the record, I'm also not really comfortable with swooping in on them and dispensing righteous outrage... But then I'm guilty of this, too.)

Just clicked on the, very public, account of this person and skimmed through it. To be honest the last thing needed here is a public debate. I think this should be locked.

I was coming to a similar conclusion myself.
