Rivers Cuomo has, in recent years, had a very unique relationship with his fan base.  Beginning in the early ''Maladroit'' recording era, Rivers would post on several Weezer fan message boards, including the official Web site board and the "[[Rivers Correspondence Board]]" under the name Ace, which was inspired by [[Ace Frehley]] of the band [[Kiss]].  Rivers would ask for the fans' advice, treating them as a producer, often exchanging emails through [[Karl Koch]], and eventually posting on boards himself.  Some of the correspondence boardies were even invited backstage during tours to play foosball with him.  Some of the relationships with the fans pushed Cuomo's temper causing him to once refer to them as "little bitches", Cuomo being upset with the fans' demands for an older sounding Weezer rather than letting the band explore new sounds.

As of late, Cuomo has been posting on the official Weezer.com message board under the handle RiversCuomo.
