And for the record- talking shit on people who have killed themselves over something so inane as EQ isn't beyond the realms of decency imo. Have you ever joked/laughed about David Carradine's death, even though it was still someone losing their life?

Totally different situation to make fun of an old sex pervert that died in an accident than it is to make fun of some kid who killed himself because he didn't want to be alone anymore.

maybe if someone was a little nicer to that kid he wouldn't have shot himself over a fucking game?

You mean his gf that would not marry him? A game has nothing to do with it, but the drugs I would say did it. That prescription crap is very dangerous, as well are young gf's mixed in with that. Killing oneself over a keyboard playing EQ is simply a " [You must be logged in to view images.

Anyway, we'll just patently wait for Velious and see, eh?

Killed himself because he didn't want to be alone anymore? Sounds emo.

I know the anonymity of the internet brings out the worst in everyone.

but holy fuck, this was a human being, with a family, how the fuck would you ghouls feel if this was your kid? or someone you knew?

no matter how you slice it, no matter how you try and sugar coat it and make light about it, this was a tragedy, some poor weak minded kid who in all likely hood was very sick mentally and needed help desperately took his own life over a game - it is NOT funny , at all.

this crosses a line, and if you don't think it crosses a line, then this generation is far worse off than I initially thought.

and yet the equivalent of two Boeing 747s smashing into the side of a mountain happen every day in Africa due to easily cured diseases. I'll keep my sympathy for people who actually deserve it, not someone who had opportunities that most can only dream about. Go preach about 1st world problems elsewhere.

pretty much sums it up. This guy chose to take his life, why should we care? He could have had a good life and didn't(by his choice), there are many people who never get that opportunity.
