Posted January 19, 2006 http://www.gameroobie.net/art/2940 This hugely depressed me. Not the actions of the other forumer, they had no idea, but that someone would actually kill themselves. I know its a regretably common thing, but seeing this really brought it to my attention and its just... saddening.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 19, 2006 Big deal.....Y'know reaper, you shouldn't be so surprised people kill themselves. Haven't you ever thought about it!?...No stressors or anything like that....that's why it's called heaven!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 19, 2006 Yeh, I know about it but to do it this way? Having all these people thinking its a joke, probably laughing and dying in such a horribly painful way is just weird. How can anyone want to die? How do you know there is anything waiting for you when you do die? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 19, 2006 You dont.... -insert creepy UFO music here- The one from Majora's Mask with the aliens. And reaper, you can want to die because in general, life is shit. The only thing that keeps me going is my girlfriend, I have no future I can see appart from her. I have no plans of any sort after August and have no idea what's gonna happen to me.....!!!

Posted January 20, 2006 There has to be better ways to kill yourself than drinking poison... But suicide isn't a rare thing, it happens all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 20, 2006 Really tragic And also terrible that it was so grossly misreported, once again to make the internet and the average video-gamer look bad. It's the same as pinning high-school shootings on Grand Theft Auto, always looking for something to blame. I've been pretty miserable in the past and thought about suicide but only really briefly, honestly I'm far too scared of death and don't think I would ever go through with it. If life really gets you down I think your best bet is to let go of the way things are and try to start something new. As my avatar based friend over here once said, "Your ticket to the future is always blank." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 20, 2006 If people want to die they have that choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 20, 2006 If people want to die they have that choice. But it's illegal so they'd best be prepared to go to prison for their choice. I think suicide is bad and people shouldn't do it. There's always a better choice and it generally leaves a load of problems for those that are left behind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 20, 2006 This seems to be everywhere I look. It's over on TGN as well. It's all well and good to think that it's a quick and easy way to escape your problems, but look at how it impacted the forum members who were in close correspondence with him. That's not to mention how the family must feel, especially with the misreports. While I hate to criticise the deceased, I think the decision to post a message as he's dying, was a bit over the top. Basically kids, don't do it, something always comes up, it might just be hidden around the corner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 21, 2006 I don't understand you people trying to show-off with apathy and humour. Someone died, a young person is actually dead.... I don't know who you think you're impressing but it must only be each other, because I think you're seriously sick in the head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 21, 2006 I'm not going to mock him, but imo his reasons we're not enough for suicide. And that Jack Thompson is a FUC*ING VULTURE! His the one with reasons to kill himself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
