Do you know any members who have passed away?

Well-known member
Not just talking TRMK but anyone.

A fellow mod in the music forum I moderate passed away Monday. She was 31 and had a very young son. We are just getting the details so not sure yet what happened.

I talked to her a lot off the forum. We loved the same kind of music. Reading it made me feel sick....I couldn't believe she was gone. You just don't really think of these things so it comes as a shock when you hear such a sad thing. Her last post on facebook was on the day she died. Really weird to think about it....

It also makes you realize that, even though you don't know someone personally, you still feel like you lost a family or friend. I feel a small void....awful news to hear and it is a little hard to come to grips with her not being around anymore. My life will obviously go on without a problem but her family has to live with this forever :/
 
2 friends of mine from forums that I met In person died.

One died on the way home in a car accident a drunk driver killed him and himself. He was on the way hone from thanksgiving.

The smash community held a regional size tournament where you could only play captain falcon(his main character) all top 4 best falcon mains were there. And all the winnings went to his family so it was a charity event.

I love the smash community.


My other friend died from an infection he thought was bronchitis, he went to the doctors too late.

Its really sad whenever I see old posts just days before they died and how happy go lucky they were just hours/days prior to death
 
i'm sorry for your losses y'all. i have hand many friends and loved one pass away. never on a forum but, never the less i would feel horrible if any of you were no longer with us. if you need any one to talk to jade i'm here for you.
 
Not on a forum but I did talk to this awesome girl on Youtube.

She seemed very sweet but then she was absent from Youtube for a while. I didn't know what happened until I found out that she had committed suicide shorty after her best friend did (which she talked about in a video).

:(
 
You know, for some reason when my grandma died. I was sad, but I didn't feel empty or filled with a void. Because deep down I knew eventually it's gonna be time.

But when it comes to these 2 guys... They were so young... and their attitudes so great.... I woke up the next day, and kept thinking if I log on now they would be there with 7-9 new posts for me to read. But it never happened.
 
There was a guy who helped a lot with the nine inch nails bootlegged concert footage from Australia. Nemesiswontdie would probably know the guy I am talking about.

But he had two daughters and he committed suicide last year. I have never interacted with him but read many of his posts. He was married and all that but could not kick what ever he had.

It was so weird going back and reading all of his posts after hearing of his passing.
 
There was a mod on the Lacuna Coil forum I used to frequent that died a couple years ago in a freak accident. He was a really nice guy, very upbeat and tolerant. I knew him about as well as you can know someone on a forum, but it definitely hit me when I read about it. He had a wife and kid, too, which only makes it sadder.

This is EXACTLY how I feel. I love my grandma but she was very sick and was 80 years old. Her time was coming. It came a lot faster than anticipated because she was totally fine and then, when she got sick, it was like BAM, she was a completely different person. She had a heart attack in May 2010 and had passed in July 2010. After her heart attack, she had become demented, didn't even know who my mom was at times, demanded medication...it was so weird. Not the grandma I knew at all.

Anyways, I was incredibly sad that she had passed away but it was easier to accept because of her age and the circumstances.

This young lady I spoke of in my first post was a great e-friend and definitely the type of gal I would hang out with. What made it even more weird to see was that she had made posts on facebook the morning of the day she died so to see them on her page while posting my respects was really, really strange to see.


A guy in the wrestling forum I go to died a few years ago in a work related accident. I believe he was in his early 20's. I wasn't buddy-buddy with him but we conversed a few times on the forum and he was a nice fellow. His father made an account and occasionally comes back to tell us about his thoughts.


Sad...


I love my grandma with all my heart and miss her so much but, for some reason, the passing of my fellow mod friend creates that empty feeling. She was just so young and happy. I mean, she had her demons, but she had been clean and sober for years. The family has no said what happened yet but someone had made a comment 'why didn't she keep fighting', which makes me think she either relapsed or was sick in some other way.

I know exactly who you're talking about. He always seemed like an ******* know it all. But I actually did have the chance to talk to him via pm and he's actually a decent guy. He did a lot for the NIN community. Sad to see that everything he had in life just couldn't stop him from doing what he did.

You could tell when all that shit happened that people were acting differently on the forums. The sex and relationship and happy threads weren't posted in for like a month. Even the video game and writing section wasn't active at all.

I remember on the Trials HD forums there was a very famous track creator who left because he had cancer. I think he came back though, so he didnt die. Was still weird thinking he may be dead and no one would ever know it(on the forums)

Yeah it's a weird feeling indeed. My last messages with my friend Brockmail before he died was

"Hey man, this weekend at 6p.m. don't be late we'll get you that Kirin's Osode"

"Ok, I'm going to a doctors appointment in the morning I feel really sick. I will probably be back in time though"

"It's all good man, glad you're seeing a doctor atleast. I'm not man enough to ever really spend money on a doctor unless it was life threatening"

"See you saturday then."


Then Saturday Night. Calvin (AKA Ronindarkblade)(His best friend) Came on and told us about how he was at the hospital when his friend died. I felt so sick and sad. Because I imagined myself in Calvin's position... I'm sure he cried his eyes out. I can't imagine seeing my best friend DIE infront of me.
