Paul跟Dave爭執的原文信件
Hi there everyone,
I don't know if many of you have been keeping up with this, or if any
of you even care. If not, then sorry for wasting your time with this
message. I'm posting it here because I have no other choice in order
to get out what I wanted to say.
Up until last week, I was looking after Paul's website. As you may
well know, it hadn't been updated since his last diary entry in May.
This was because he promised another update in June, and then August,
and then September, and then October... and, well, it never materialised.
He also promised new music for us all to hear, but alas we've only seen a
sniff of that even now (a remix of a dance tune by someone else with his
vocals on it).
Anyway, out of the blue, he decided to give me the sack, without any
explanation, or any attempt to discuss or deal with whatever issues he
had with me.
Now, this was a private affair between him and I, until yesterday. He
decided to post up our private e-mail conversation on a PD fansite
forum for all to see. Unfortunately, just after I got a chance to
respond to it, the owner of the forum decided to take down the thread.
(原來是Paul先把信件po上去的 sorry,Dave XD)
So, I hope you don't mind, but I'd like to post the full conversation
here, just to let the record show what he's actually like. People saw
what he originally posted (a small part of the below), so here's the
full thing...

I suppose you want me to approve the change of MySpace address for

me if you were going to change it and you didn't.
This is really sucky, Paul.

the andie situation where he was posting maliicious posts on her site for
a while, ive discussed this with you before,and chad and i have had to
deal with the police over it so shes been really helpful, obviously you
and suzi dont get on so its nothing ive needed to discuss with you. As
Ive said the work youve done in setting up the holding page etc has been
paid for hasnt it? Hasnt everything been done professionally, the page has
been out of date for ages and i need to take up offers made to me to to
help me out with stuff and various people have offered their services for
free,which im gonna take up, surely you dont have a problem with that, you
must have relationships with other clients where work comes to an end?

Paul,
OK, from this, I don't understand why if Suzi is just someone you're
considering along with many others (who to me sound far better people
to have involved), you forwarded her the e-mail I sent to you about
access to the Mansun MySpace (that I set up for the band without charge).
When I sent you the e-mail, I asked that you let me know if anything was
going to change, but then the first I saw was a request to change the
e-mail address for the account, and then you forwarding my e-mail to
someone who you'd not told me was involved at all.
I have no idea why you want to give a fan access to the current official
MySpace page, who in the past has consistently abused copyright of your
work and encourage others to do the same, shown no respect for your record
label or your webmaster, has fallen out with many other fans in the past,
driving them away from the sites she's been in control of, and generally
done everything she can to get in the way of official Mansun and Paul
Draper online activity.
(Suzi有Dave說的這麼不堪嗎- -)
I only ever charged you for your site because from when we first met up
on the South Bank and went to Wagamama, you told me that you wanted to
pay for it all properly and professionally, so that was the route we went
down. If you're not happy with the work I've done for you, I would
appreciate you discussing it with me properly. If you're not happy or
unable to pay for my work, we could have spoken about it and come to some
arrangement. To repeat: I only charged you, at a full rate or event at all,
because you asked me to!
I have always enjoyed being involved with both the Mansun work over the
years, and yours more recently, and so if money is the issue, I am happy
to take care of things for free for the time being. Until we spoke on New
Year's Eve, you had never mentioned money being an issue.
As far as I know, progess on your site has only halted because you wanted
to wait until you actually had material etc. We had a full plan worked out
for last summer but you didn't follow up on any of it. Your site could have
been well underway by now if you had given me the nod and the content to
get on with it, for money, or for free. It wasn't payment that was an issue
as far as I was concerned.
The work on your site has been paid for, yes, but I haven't been paid to do
the Mansun site since Kleptomania, and even that was only for a short period,
and that's not to mention all the meetings and calls we've had over the years
and more recently.
I haven't charged you at all for setting up either the Paul Draper or Mansun
MySpace pages.
And regarding work coming to an end, from my experience, it's only happened
to me with people who've projects have fallen by the wayside completely -
i.e. not that they've chosen to work with someone else.I've never had any
work going elsewhere, and am quite proud about that!
When it comes to projects that I am a fan of and support, I am usually happy
to give what services I can for free.
The problem I have is that you haven't really talked to me about any of this.
You seem to be implying you don't want to pay me anymore, but that doesn't
mean our relationship should end completely.. . does it? As I say, I would
have really appreciated being able to discuss things properly before you
apparently made decisions about letting others get involved.
Dave
P.S. On the subject of your site, we promised people who signed up for the
info mailing list that they'd be the first to hear when you put up music
online. So, most of them will still be in the dark about the track on
MySpace because we've not done a mail-out like we said we would. We'd said
the exclusives would be on your site first, not MySpace, and I could have
helped with that and the mail-out, for free, if you had just spoken to me
about it first. We should still do a mail-out now - let me know if you'd
like to. No cost involved!

Paul,
(暗色的字體是Paul Draper的回話)
> The holding page has stayed dormannt for a year, the becomeoming
increacingly out of date. We did discuss ideas and nothings been done
pro actively,
Yes, you kept promising a third diary entry, but it never materialised.
You were going to put up music, but that didn't happen. I can't build
a website if there's nothing to go on it! The only thing that was
oustanding as far as I remember was putting up some more photos.
> it would need me to tell you and you do it and invoice me.
Well, that's how things usually work with a website for somebody.
They give you what they want, and you put it up.
As for the invoicing, as I said in my last e-mail, there was only a cost
factor involved because you wanted things done that way. I only ever
charged you for your site because from when we first met up on the South
Bank and went to Wagamama, you told me that you wanted to pay for it all
properly and professionally, so that was the route we went down. If you're

Year's Eve, you had never mentioned money being an issue.
> As i said before Ive had offers of people doing a site for me for
free, without a lot of involvement from me,
You'd never said to me at any point that you didn't want to be much involved
with your own site. In fact, I thought it was quite the opposite?! We were
discussing try to build something revolutionary in terms of the artist being
directly involved.
> ive told you this and im taking up that offer from various sources!
So are you completely ignoring my own offer? I didn't know the site was up
in the air until all this happened out of the blue, so it doesn't seem fair
that I've been sacked (that's how it feels I'm afraid). You'd not told me
at any point that you had a problem with paying for the site to be updated,
or that you expected me to get on with building it when there wasn't anything
to put on it.
> As foar the posts youve made, Im not interested, this has been going
on for years and I wont get involved with this crap anymore.
If you mean the posting on the pauldraper-music forum, I wasn't asking you
to get involved. The message that I posted was letting fans know that Suzi
is now in charge of your site - i.e. what's up there now has nothing to do
with me.
> In terms of the official Mansun myspace page, I wanted to run it, as
fans claimed you werent updating friends as it was a dead band.
I really don't know where that's come from.
I'll admit I haven't kept full tabs on it, mainly because I don't seem to
get e-mails from MySpace, so there was nothing there reminding me to log
in and approve people every few days etc. but I thought it was your own
MySpace page that was the important one, which is why it was best that
you and Caz were going to look after it.
> Thats absolutely fine, just take 'official' of your site and ill get a
new one going that I can run, and Chad can have access to if he wants
and that will be the official from now one. I just need to know.
So you're asking me if you can have the details to log-in to the Mansun
MySpace, so that you and Chad can keep it up to date? If so, then of course
that's fine.
What upset me was seeing you forwarding the details to someone else who had
nothing to do with anything to my knowledge, and then that coming after I'd
said in my e-mail to you with the details that if anything was going to
change with the page, you should keep me updated. It just felt like you were
doing stuff behind my back, when as far as I knew I'd done nothing wrong.
If you and Chad would like to look after it, why did you forward the details
to someone else?
> Anything else in terms of hatred between internet fans, i dont give a fuck
about. As far as Im concerned, nobody has stole anything, and in terms of
content everyone is entitled to access, copy, spread around diary entries,
mp3, whatever, and I may have to make that clear on my site in the future.
OK, I'm sorry, I thought the main goal of the website I set up for you was
to get people signed up on the mailing lists, not give them a reason to go
elsewhere instead. You were choosing to pay me to create stylish pages with
photos and hyperlinks for your diary entries, and then 'fans' were just
filling their own sites with the bare text and detracting from our work.
Surely you'd be annoyed if you put hard work into a new track, played it at
a gig or club, and within hours other artists/producers have ripped it off
and are playing it at their own events?
> Hobody stole your job, numerous people were asked by me if they could
help me out with an internet presence, and numerous people will be helping
me out in future as will be come apparent to you.
My job was looking after pauldraper.info. I had no awareness that you
weren't happy with the job I was doing. Somebody else now has that job,
which as far as I know is because they've basically undercut me (by offering
to do it for free), so it certainly feels like its been stolen.
Like I've said, if I'd've known that money was an issue for you, I would
have made the same free offer.
> In terms of being mates, I can understand youre a bit put out by this,
but ive been straight down the line over this,
I really don't agree with you on that Paul. The first I knew about any of
this was when you called me on New Year's Eve. Progess on your site only
halted because you wanted to wait until you actually had material etc. We
had a full plan worked out for last summer but you didn't follow up on any
of it. Your site could have been well underway by now if you had given me
the nod and the content to get on with it, for money, or for free.
> and as far as im concerned, its a business decision i cant turn down
and is now forgotten about, its in your court dave, let me know where
your at and if you want to keep hold of your myspace page.
If I'm not still working with you at all, then I think I will just want
to give up on all of my involvement with Mansun and you online.So, if
you've completely given me the boot then fine, I'll give you access to
it to do with as you please, as I have no use for it. It's just pretty
sad for me because if I have made some kind of mistake somewhere down
the line, I've not been told what it was or given a chance to rectify it,
which I would much rather do than just having to give up on everything.
If by 'business decision' you are talking in terms of the cost of paying
me to do stuff, again, please consider what I have said of late...
I have always enjoyed being involved with both the Mansun work over the
years, and yours more recently, and so if money is the issue, I am happy
to take care of things for free for the time being. The only time I would
want/expect money, is if you were making significant amounts of it yourself
and the work that I'd done had played a part in it.
Let me know what you think, please,
Dave

to yourself with no fan updates, as straight question. Are you prepared
to give me a straight answer?
Did you not read my message?! I already gave you an answer:
If I'm not still working with you at all, then I think I will just want
to give up on all of my involvement with Mansun and you online.So, if
you've completely given me the boot then fine, I'll give you access to

Now, where are your answers to the things that I asked you?
> Onve I know, no more to be said, no more enemies, snidy messages to
people and well go out on a good london night out, all forgotten.
You want me to forget that you've given me the sack for no good reason?!
Easy for you maybe, but not for me I'm afraid. You've swept the carpet
from under my feet without even talking to me first about it,have done
things behind my back, and you don't seem in the slightest bit sorry.
> Just this last piece of business to be cleard up before it all goes
dirty.
Look, it went dirty as soon as you decided to give someone else my job
without telling me, or discussing whatever issues you had with the work
that I'd done. And it's getting dirtier now as you've blamed the lack
of activity on your site on me, when you kept putting off writing your
next diary entry. You said I wasn't pro-active when it was me sending
you text messages every few weeks asking if you'd done it yet.
Are you trying to use me, or the fact that I was charging you for work
AT YOUR OWN REQUEST, as an excuse for getting rid of me or something?!
What have I actually done wrong here?! It's you that's been busy on
other projects and writing projects etc., which led to the neglect of
the website.
> Yout site ot mine, dead simpe, send access or not! Th siye is an
irrllavence, its what it says about you as a human being.
>
> p
As soon as you start treating me with a bit of respect again, I'll do
the same.
At the moment I get the impression that as soon as I give you what you
want, like I did with all the domain name/website details, you'll just
pass them on to someone else and I'll never hear from you again.As I
said before, I set up the MySpace pages in my own time for free,so I
don't appreciate you taking the piss.
TO REPEAT, AGAIN:
I only ever charged you for your site because from when we first met up

Mattt at parlophone asked you to help with the site you left dormant for
years but all as you asked for was cash, even when it was running you
alienated so many people it was a dead site, even the messageboard was

Paul,
I'm now laughing at how ridiculous you're being - you can't even answer
the straight questions that I put to you. You're blaming me for the lack
of activity on your site, when you kept making up excuses about why you
hadn't got anything new to go on it. You know you should have written
the next diary entry way back in June. You know we'd planned to put music
up online in the summer. You didn't deliver on either!
I have e-mails and texts from you from throughout the summer where you
kept saying "yeah, coming soon", "will do it in the next few days". Why
did you keep stringing me along like that if you were actually expecting
me to do something instead?
NOTHING HAPPENED ON THE SITE BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T SENT ME ANYTHING NEW
TO GO ON IT!
I'm not a miracle worker, Paul. I can't make wine out of water. What
exactly should I have done to the page?! There was nothing new to go
on it. Should I have put up a new diary entry saying "Paul had planned
to do another great diary entry, but instead he's decided to piss off
to France on a 'writing trip' for a few weeks, so you will have to wait,
yet again". Or howabout a message saying "Paul was going to let you hear
some of the music that he's been working on and that you're all so
desperate to hear, but he's instead focusing on producing some new band
that mean nothing to you lot, so you're going to have to wait another 6
months".
I *was* your webmaster, if you actually know what that means. I took care
of things on the web for you. I answered e-mails from fans. I set things
up like the MySpace page. I gave you technical support at various times.
All for free and all out of respect for you, that you've thrown back in
my face.
IF YOU FEEL YOU WERE 'TAKING SHIT FROM ME', WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SOMETHING?!
Were you really being as two-faced as you seem?!
The Mansun site is a completely separate issue. If Parlophone decide to
release a 'Best Of' to milk further money out of fans, then they have
to accept that having a website to promote it should come at a cost.
That's how I've always operated. They can't just stop paying me to run
it for years and then expect me to help them make more money,while paying
me nothing. If someone's using me to make money, then I want a cut. If
they're doing stuff for free, then I'll do it for free too. I wouldn't've
charged you a penny for my work if you hadn't asked me to.
Now, if your example is anything to go by, I should now be calling you
names left, right and centre, throwing my toys out of the pram. You accuse
me of thriving on conflict - all I'm trying to do is get to the bottom of
why I've lost my job. You can blame me as much as you like, but we both
know it was YOU that didn't do what you said you'd do. You only have
yourself to blame.

conflict with me. Let me tell you this natriss,I've been dealing with the
police all year over issues you know nothing about. your poison, don't ever
come near me or my musical career ever again, your the most disliked person
I've ever met, dream up whatever schemes you want, my brief and the police
will be immediately informed if you continue to stalk me thru the Internet.
You're a deliberate troublecauser and I'm passing everything on to my lawyer,
including your abusive messages to fans when running a pop group website."
My reply, to signify receipt of his message, was simply:
"F--k off and get a career"
He replied a few hours later...
"You've started sending malicous texts to people accidently on purpose
and posting my private correspondence on the Internet, you've set about
me, trying to cause trouble in my life by malicious deception, your a
bitter and twisted horror of an individual. I'm seeing my lawyer about
you today as you are eveil malicious and mentally ill. I will apply for
a restraining order against you. Do not attempt to contact me again, or
interfere in my business or life.I am reporting you to the police today,
get yourself some help, you are sick."
To that I replied:
"Do you know the meaning of hypocrisy? Go away please, go away (that was
directed at both your faces)"
He came back with:
"Your txt style is like your messageboard style, you need to have the last
word, stop contacting me, ill take every abusive message to the police
today, and ever malicious email and post your using to run a vendetta
against me."
To which I said:
"Erm, you started this texting. How many times do I need to tell you to
leave me alone?! Piss away more money on a lawyer if you like, I really
don't care"
And he said:
"It's true what they say you do have to have the last word, are you that
sad? I've said it message after message but your still contacting me,
your obsessed, how clear do you want me to make it, I don't want you to
contact me, if you do again I can only assume youve become derranged. Do
you know how this will look for you? Everyone predicted all this, and
more, you'll try anthing to cause trouble and everyones prepared for the
worst coz its all you've got in your life.Please go away!"
I croaked out the following:
"UNSUBSCRIBE"
And then he really excelled himself with:
"No back answers"
I've left it at that, as I had no idea what he was saying.
It's been an interesting 10 years that I've been involved with Mansun
and Paul Draper's online presence. Rather upsetting for it all to come
crashing down like this, but I guess it could only ever follow the path
of the band and its self-destructing frontman.
I never thought some of the worst abuse I'd ever receive in my life would
be from the man that I used to idolise in my teens, far worse than from
those others who along the way have not seen eye to eye with me. This
certainly isn't the first time he's treated me like this, and as he says
himself, he's regularly involved with the police (I've never been near
them in my life!), so I guess it's not surprising that he thinks all this
is acceptable behaviour.
Anyway, in terms of Mansun and the Internet, that's it for me, folks.
There's nothing to hang around for. Paul is p*ssing away his musical
career, Mansun split up nearly 4 years ago now, and Parlophone have
already tried to flog a greatest hits collection with very little
success.
I've made some great friends over the years, had some mad experiences
(both good and now bad), been lucky enough to observe first hand the
ups and downs of being in a rock band and being idolised by many people,
and through the work I did for the band online, I've been able to carve
out a full career for myself... and for all that I will always be grateful.

dave your trying everything you can to cause trouble for the launch of
my site and mailing lists, youve become obsessed mate, ive spoke to my
brief today and im catologuing a malicious vendetta, from dexy to the
fan site lads, to the mailing list youll alienate yourself from everyone
in the end! and others are logging it all, give up dave, i dont have time
for this rubbish, you must have other stuff to do, have you? Why is it so
important to keep a dead mansun page on myspace, give it to me,ill run it.
ive already set up another one anyway which everyonell just join, your
making yourself look petty.
Your pattern of behaviour is starting to look like a vendetta and you
could end up in serious trouble, as you know ive used mt legal team very
effectively over the years coz all this is pretty common in the music
industry. Call it quits and give up, nobody holds any hard feelings or
grudges, just you man, your boring now. Your a nice kid, you need to calm
down and take life with a pinch of salt a bit more and go and get laid,
youll feel a lot better. Im not a bad guy Dave, come on, give it a rest
dude, surely none of us need this crap, its irrelevant, if it concerns
you so much, join in for fucks sake and help out. And at the end of the
day the offer of a beers still there, you just riled me the other night
and after a few beers hey, we all fuck up. First it was locking me out
of the mansun myspace page, then messaging on messageboards, then malicious
emails to people, then trying to access the database. A real pattern of
harasments emerging here Dave, youve let off y steam, now cool it man,
ive seen shit like this get out of hand,dont fall into the same trap,
youll loose badly man.

No one gives a shit about you Dave, but i have all the insults you aimed
at suzi a while back which show you in a terrible light as a webmaster,
a bully and a troublecauser. Now if you are intent on running a harrassment
campaign against me, ill call my brief tomorrow and ill have no choice to
take the lot to the police. Youve started a war with me because i got
someone else to do a website. Your really scary Dave, and if all else fails
your welcome to come and sort this out face to face,thee offers open?

pourposes and im gonna have to inform people of your mental breakdown

dave your a seriously fucked up guy, no ones interested or listening to
you. You love conflict. I knew it would be like this Dave. Youve got a
Narcasistic Personality Disorder and you need to get yourself sorted out
because if you think your gonna dream up stunts and cause further and
further trouble everyday, your so wide of the mark. Ill report to my
brief tomorrow that your mental condition has deteriorated and youll
probably turn to a database of pop music fans you collected from the EMI
Mansun database to continue these lists of conversatins. Step back and
look what a monster youve become. My brief will simply take me to the
same old dept at the met that deal with people like you. Id like to meet
you face to face so ill probably pop down over the weekend, dont worry
if your out and about, ill wait. In the meantime have you considered
talking to a councillor, they can be really helpful or would you like me
to contact your parents, as i think you may need people around you just
now. Im up for matching you post for post on the internet and if you want
to use the mailing list, well have to go into great detail about your mental
collapse and why your doing this, but its a bit geeky for me, id rather do
this man to man. In all sincerity, ill take you to a councellor if it means
this much to you, or see your gp. You dont want the stigma of harassing
pop music fans, it cant be that important to you can it, i mean youve
ridiculed my career and tried to twist everything into an argument, you
seem to thrive on the conflict, and abuse in some of the posts i have
stored from you to fans and other fan sites. After ve spoke to the police
I know theyll tell me to cut off contact with you so this can be my last
offer of help, as a mate. Ill come over to see you and we'll deal with
all this ridicule, abuse and backhanded harassment face to face, man to
man dave.
Take care of yourself
Im not a bad guy dave and your making a mistake in the end itll look
like you got carted away in a straight jacket

Oh dear... I'm still getting unprovoked threats and general maliciousness
by e-mail from Paul Draper (see attached). I'm forwarding these on just in
case he makes good on his promise to come to my flat (he's visited before)
and then does something untoward, as I don't have or want a lawyer to take
care of this kind of thing.
If I was making them up, then he might have a point about this campaign
he claims I'm waging, but I'm simply forwarding them on - his words speak
for themselves and he only has himself to blame.
Again, it's a real shame things have gone like this. It's no fun being
treated like this by someone you respected and looked up to so much for
years, but I suppose all relationships are emptying and temporary...

well what the hell did you do to make him react like that!?
have a nice day ?
Dave的回信:
Hard to say, Rory. I just forwarded our e-mail and SMS conversation from
earlier in the week (see the Special/Blown It message) to this mailing
list.
Oh, and I've yet to give him access to the Mansun MySpace page that I
set up ages ago. I was fine with doing it, but he was dishonest about
what he wanted to do with it, so I stopped him before he had a chance.
I'd always treated him with respect in the past, because he'd generally
done the same with me.
However, when someone goes quiet on you for months, then blames you for
the lack activity on their website, and takes issue with being charged for
the work has been done, when he sat me down over dinner and said he wanted
it to be that kind of relationship, it's becomes hard to do that. And then
when you start getting bullied by e-mail and SMS like all this... well, you
just have to walk away, which is what I'm trying to do.

重看信件後
1.兩人吵架還會用到Mansun的歌詞
2.其實一點也不好笑
3. ...... 大家自己判斷吧
