As someone who has watched too many friends and family waste away from too many diseases, I'm convinced that suicide for this reason is one of the most selfless acts a person can do. The alternative only causes more agony than there need be.

As someone who pulled through a tough time in the past, with severe depressions at time, and later watching my own uncle who had 2 small kids (not even in education yet), a wife and brain damage that caused him to never leave the house kill himself with alcohol, leaving much agony behind, the act of killing oneself is what I can never accept. Now his family is left for me and my family to take care of, the kids never get the teaching of their father.
I guess we have different perspective. | ||

This is a really long thread, so I didn't make it through the whole thing, but I just wanted to check: did anyone mention the fact that he played EQ back in the day?

Ok, I made it through the whole thread and there's no mention of it, so I guess it's not very common knowledge.
My cousin used to be a GM at SOE ... granted it was for Star Wars Galaxies, but she helped GM for EQ sometimes, and her boyfriend at the time was a senior GM for Everquest. Anyhow, people there talked about famous people who played EQ, and one of those people was Robin Williams. I don't remember much else about it, just that he played a Wood Elf Ranger. R.I.P. Robin Williams, a fellow classic Everquest gamer and an amazing comedian and actor. | ||

Loramin, I learned recently that he was way into Legend of Zelda (he named his daughter after the Princess) and that he also played WoW, Battlefield 2, Call of Duty, etc. So it wouldn't surprise me that he probably played EQ back in the day. Makes you wonder who you're actually guilded with huh? I wonder if he knew about P99 if he would have been interested in coming here for a somewhat classic experience.
