o and A fan, your a little boy. Your a child you haven't had the chance to experience to know what life is, and here you are crying over some prick who was a jerk to 99 percent of the people he came in contact with. that's disgusting, and I said what I said for a reason. I guess you think its okay for him to tell me to blow my brains out, and i guess you think its okay for him to terrorize others on here just so he can get his kicks. I oppolojized for what said but you don't realize that do you. course you don't, because you are a little baby.
lauren, sorry, but do we all need to hear?
yes, you do because they need to know what a jerk he was inlife.
jerk? if it was not for lightningglider, i would not have VT
m, how the hel old are we? take your personal problems else where!
Hey as far as I'm concerned, he was a messed up individual, his words and until I see actual proof? this is nothing but blind gossip and I'll do just fine with out it thank you. If he has committed suicide, all he's done is left problems for someone else to clean up and selfishly took the path of least resistance.
dam people can really be heartless. i mean to start a board like this after what has supposively happened. leave the poor guy alone. he must have really had some issues for it to end this way. so let it be and let him rest in peace. again i'll say heartless to talk of him like this after he is gone. no matter how hard life is you never wish this on anyone. sad.

Some crap just doesn't belong on the boards. Seriously Makaziwe Biko, I hope you see what sort of a stupid ass you just made of yourself. If anything, you are a jerk for making the rest of us even bother wasting server space on your personal issues with others. Why? Because they are just that: personal issues! So, please deal with your own issues on your own, because we don't need to read about them. You may find that this could make you in to a more mature person someday, but who knows?
Lorrin. you are not 99% of people. you are probibally .01 percent of people he was in contact with. So it is personal keep it to yourself. He had his problems and some of us will miss him because we knew the other side of him. just leave it off the boards.
Jesus Christ, what immaturity.
It doesn't matter whether you loved him, hated him, or didn't know him at all, this is not an issue which should be on the boards.
Grow up.
I never spoke to him but when i heard what happened to him i felt very sorry.
I agree with the others. If anything only a nice topick should be created about him saying goodbye and remember the nice things about him.
I can't believe how some people say nasty things about dead people whatever they did. I believe that after they dy they deserv some respect.
I hope to him a nice jurney to the new world hi entered.
I knew this would come up after the spawning of rumors that DJToonhead brought to our attention yesterday. He said that 2 of his friends on his MSN list told him that Lightningglider committed suicide.
Whether or not if this is true, that was just plain selfish on his part to take his own life like that. He was a pretty young fellow wasn't he? How sad that is in my opinion. No one should take their lives under any cercumstances whatever the problem may have been or might be over. It's like running away if you ask me killing yourself will not solve your fucking problems like you think it will trust me. I'm telling ya now.
Alright enough talking about him, now for the poster, I think your pretty immature for posting something like this on a public forum. This stuff should be well kept to yourself. That's all I'm saying on this board, may it burn in Hell.
You know I just thought of why the CL's don't disable his account since he's dead but ah well only reason I see why they're not doing that cause I guess it's something other zoners can read on to remember him.
Yes you are right. People might want to remember him. His audio profile is there so people can listen to his voice when they miss him.
Wow, some people will stoop pretty low. Whether you liked him or not, if he's gone, let him rest in peace. Why start a bunch of drama when he's not even here to defend himself?
when I saw this board, I said, "oh no, they didn't"
but it figures that this would be put in a board topic.
Yes, we have our own opinions about David, but I liked him and was really sad to hear about him. I hope he can find peace and happiness somewhere else.
leave it up to a zoner to create a board like this.
omg! How inappropriate!
Whoever created this board, has a serious problem. Go create about your personal problems some place else. I actually really liked David, so if you've had problems with him, go figure them out on your own somewhere a long way from here. We don't need to hear about them, and personally, i'd rather remember him for what he was to me, a friend.
Go take a few minutes and reflect on what you've said, and maybe once you've grown up, you'll feel as stupid as you've just made yourself look.
The sooner the Cl's remove this board, the better.
I never really knew the guy but it's just sad what he went and has done. I don't like the talk of suicidal indviduals who want do that sort of thing is why I wrote what I did in my last post that I made here. However as selfish as it may have been there ins't much that can be done now.
I think they might of left his account on here just in case he decided not to kill himself after all, it was just a rumor let's prey that's all it was.
I didn't know him and didn't know about his suicide until reading this topic. What a disturbing way to announce this kind of news. I've seen R.I.P topics on here before where someone made a board post to talk about a former zone member's death. To me, that is appropriate and kind. But to just start bashing someone the way this topic starter did is totally cruel and uncalled for.
While I have my own reservations about this topic, I think that people should be allowd to remember the departed however they choose. My problem isn't with the feelings of the poster towards the departed David, rather my problem is with the way she attacks O and A fan. Publicly if you want to Bash David fine. Not everyone is going to remember him in a nice light
But this seems to be a personal attack on one user. Take your private attacks up with him, or drop it all together. No need to make it public however.
I wholeheartedly agree with the majority of the sentiments on this board. I've only talked to David once or twice, and since up to this point, I don't know of any proof to this fact, I hope that he did change his mind.
However, this was very immature, and people who have passed on, regardless of whether you liked him or not, do deserve respect.
This topic needs to be removed!
From when I talked to him, he semed like a nice guy. Besides, no matter how they were in life, no oen deserves this sort of treatment after they're gone.
I have no idea what this little pissy fit was initially in aid of. Apparently you had an argument in public quick notes and then came to the boards to carry it on for reasons best known to yourself. At least, that's how it seems to me.
I do have a couple of points to make at this juncture though. You accuse David of being insensitive and uncaring a person in life, I'm paraphrasing here you understand but that seemed to be your general drift. Now can you say that posting something of this nature in the wake of his death puts you above either of those less than venerable things? It's insensitive, highly so in fact because, although you may not have liked this person, he did have friends and seeing something like this I'm sure would be highly upsetting to them, and it's plain uncaring because not only may you cause upset to friends of this kid, you also apparently don't feel that a fellow human being, no matter what your opinion of them in life was, deserves any respect once they're dead. Put that together and really, you're not shining in any better a light to the rest of us now than he apparently did to you when he was alive.
I also see a few posts further down Madam Vel accuses David of being cowardly for taking his own life. One may question however just how brave it is to so openly bash somebody publicly when they're no longer here to defend themselves.
Who ever David was to us in life, dear friend or loathed enemy, none of it matters anymore. He has taken his own life and that's certainly not something to feel satisfied about or to gloat over. It's a horrible thing for his family, his friends and even him because while it's very easy for us to spout platitudes about him being selfish for taking his own life, we can none of us put ourselves in his shoes and know exactly what he was feeling and thinking that drove him to take such a drastic measure.
I knew him only in passing, not well at all, but I for one am sorry for his loss. Rest in piece sir, wherever you maybe now.
Dan.
awwww, nicely put baby!
Ok. Couple of things here. Firstly, I also think the tone of the first post was rather negative. You might not like O&A fan, but mixing personal issues with the death of a fellow zoner is probably not the best way to start a thread. Secondly, it has been confirmed that David, did in fact, commit suicide. He died at 10:30 PM on March 23rd, aparently of a drug overdose. he took some kind of pills, but I am not aware of what pills he took. Either way, it is sad. I didn't particularly like him, Ialso thought he was a jerk, but damn. He obviously had reasons for wanting to do what he did and it was sad how he decided to take his own life. When I mentioned it on here yesterday, it is very important to understand that it was not an atempt to start rumors. Anyone who knows me knows I despise zone drama in any shape or form. I aparently wasn't aware that the subject of his suicide had already been brought up and it started all kinds of shit i didn't intend to start. But some of you need to remember that not everyone spends 24/7 on this site. I have a life outside the zone, but since I knew he hung out here occasionally, i felt it was a good idea to let people know what'd happened. I have learned however that aparently this is not a good idea. So next time I have a bit of news that effects the zone, you won't hear it from me. After the treatment I received yesterday from a few people, I wouldn't say anything.
you're all stupid. Let the man rest in peace.. Everyone makes mistakes, noone knows the real true story behind it. Let it go... Remember the good things, forget the bad.
Agreed.
How actually did all these facts come together with him dying? Was their notification from the family in any way?
If he's really dead post the link to the obituary, or else I won't believe it.
This whole thing could have and should have been handled differently. Someone who really knew him and knew the details of his death should have posted a topic here on the boards to let people know. It shouldn't have been a bashing post, and it wouldn't have needed to be a post to make him sound like a saint, as no one is a saint. But just the facts without all this drama would have been nice.
Yes, but can anything happen here on the Zone without any drama? Hmmm... Hmmm... No?
But, I do agree with you, Becky.
Remove this topic!!!!
ok guys, I'll say what I said to a few zoners around here when I found out that david had died.
First, nicely put dan. I couldn't agree with you more on just about everything you said in your above post.
Secondly, david might have been a jerk to some, but he and I were cool. I didn't really get to know him as well as others did around here, but when I did talk to him, he was always cool with me.
And finally, what ever was going on in his head has no baring on the rest of us. Only he knows what he was thinking the night he decided to take his own life, and it's a shame that people have to start a bash board over something stupid that doesn't, and didn't, really affect the person he was.
Sure he might have been a jerk to some, but come on. He's dead, and that's what's important. Let people who do have memories of a good friendship with him, enjoy them. In the end, all you're doing is making people who are already upset about it, even more so.
There's my few lines about it anyway.

Well, I rarely come one here, at least visible. I had not known David for long. Beginning of December I believe. Heard about him yes, and not always good things but then I got to know him, and I must say that it is what I perceived of him that I will remember, and that I always kept in mind, not his being bashed. Before he died, there were different tags on his msn which led me to think that he was at the end of his rope.
He had, on different occasions, talked to me about things.
And we also had fun chats.
Depression, and being down, I have known it myself for a long time, and just come out of it. So, please do not pass judgement in anyway at all, as no one knows what brought him to that, even if some reasons were known to some.
I also add to the othe requests that the topic should be locked, if for no other reason, at least for decency.
excellently put Harp Dan, and Cam. Just the sort of things i'd have liked to have said myself, except when i read this board it just made me angry and i couldn't constructively thing of what i wanted to say, so put exactly what i felt. Disgust and down right contempt towards the creater of this board.
it should be end of this pointless discussion as what it is, its already happen. those who know him know clearly who he was and is. those who doesn't know him, its too late. no matter who he was, its already past.
personally i don't talk to David at all, or, even have him on ignored. but after i knew about David's death, i strongly feel the pain and sadness.
for good or bad he was, its over.
can we just give peace to David now?
at least, thats the least we can do isn't it?
I didn't know David at all, now I never will, and, that's my loss.

Meditation XVII:
No man is an island...
"All mankind is of one author, and is one volume; when one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language; and
every chapter must be so translated...As therefore the bell that rings to a sermon, calls not upon the preacher only, but upon the congregation to come:
so this bell calls us all: but how much more me, who am brought so near the door by this sickness....No man is an island, entire of itself...any man's
death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee."
Rest in Peace.

I have to agree with most of you, who new him and liked him. I have seen him around from time to time, but if one takes there own life, then there must be some serious issues, that he was deeling with. I have resintly had to deal with a loved ones death myself, and I wouldn't wish this one on anybody. It makes for a very deep void. So, those of you who did know him, I am truly saddened by these avents. And I am loaved to say "I am sorry."
Because in a time like this one, sorry just doesn't make the hert any more aless easier to handle. But I can say, you all will have those memories in your heart for the rest of your lives and charish them. And even though I hate saying I am sorry in a time like this, But I am sorry for all of his friends loss. And I truly hope that in time, it will get better. Let the poor guy rest in piece.
David was a wonderful person. I have gotten through so much with his help. Through him, I became strong, became more aware of what I have. I can't believe someone so insensitive would come up here and not only bash someone for feeling like they lost someone special, but give no respect to the person who is dead. Obviously you had no idea who David was, and now, you never will. I swear, sometimes people can be so damn heartless, sure taking his own life might have been selfish, and maybe a little drastic, but that gives us no reason to think we're saints and that he deserves less respect because of that. Please you guys, have some heart for once, and let the people who cared for him remember the kind soul that he was, thanks.
Agree with the majority on here. for goodness sakes people, everyone give him nothing but respect now his gone.
I wholeheartedly agree that this board topic *needs *to be removed, and, it would be great if a close friend of his would perhaps post to the boards to let us know officially.
R.I.P David. For those that don't believe.
Oh this whole board makes me want to cry. I never knew the guy, so I'm not going to say anything negative against him. I agree with Harp and Cam...I couldn't have put it better myself. For the idiot that started this topic, get, a, life! stop bashing someone just cause you didn't like them! he, is, dead! let him rest in piece! if you have a problem with someone, don't come here and air it, and show disrespect to someone who, obviously had his own reasons, is no not on this earth. I also agree, that this topic should be removed. r,i,p David.
What really hurts me, is that I was trying to talk him out of it after he was saying he was gonna do it on his msn name...I feel so bad, I feel like I just watched someone kill themself withoug watching him do it...does that make sence? I liked what I knew about him, but why did he have to make Marrissa feel bad about it. And how is this "personal" when it involves someone else? Just curious.
don't even get me started on marissa. No no no, we ain't even goin' there!
again i'm going to say. it's his personal life and that's not for the boards either. so your just as bad bringing that to the boards. he's gone. and what was between him and her, should be left off these boards. no matter how messed up it was it was a very sad situation, so let's leave it at that! rest in peace David!
rIP David. We put your life in God's hands now. There are no words to describe what I think about the negative posts on here. Honestly, you claim David was an insensitive jerk? Did you ever stop to think how insensitive you were being by posting this Bullshit?? Yes, let the poor guy rest in peace and if you know anyone that was close to him and are best friends with him, you should be there for them instead of wasting time by making accusations after the fact. He is gone from this world and the least we can do is honor his memory with kindness. Yes, this board should be taken off the server. I wholeheartedly agree. His close friends don't have to read this. They are going through enough suffering for him already. They don't need your bs. He was wrong for what he did, for after all, God gives life and he alone can take it away, but who are we to judge that now? We will all be judged in our end by our Heavenly Father. rest In peace David. To your friends, I will accompany them in the spirit of their sorrow because I know how special you were to them.
Oh, please don't even get me started on freekin marissa...
I really came to know David and he really was an awesome person. Yeah he had some issues but so does everyone else. Not one of you including myself is perfect. None of you know what was going on inside his mind so none of you have any rite to judge him. How insensative and heartless can you get to make a bord like this anyway. It seriously needs to be removed! Rest in peace David, you will be forever missed, *crying smily*
What the fuck???? To you insensitive, heartless, cold individuals who posted shit up on this board bashing David, who happened to be a very close friend of mine, all I have to say to you is that there is nothing, and I mean nothing, lower on earth than talking bad about the dead. Those who have done so ought to have their usernames permanently deleted from this site, and their accounts disabled. why can't you keep your insensitive comments and your personal issues to yourselves and let me and other of David's close friends mourn him in peace?? Those who said that when we as his close friends would read some of the shit that has been said on here, that it would upset us, you were right. But it also angers me. I can't believe that you would be so heartless and cold as that. David, whereever you are man, may you rest in peace. You helped me through a lot in my life, and for that, I will always remember you. Rest in peace, David!!!!!!!!!
And, let me just say this, that I forgot to point out on my last post. Anybody who is so inhuman, insensitive and indecent as to talk bad of the dead ought to be hung up by their ears and ought to have their urethras and or vaginas stapled shut.
I agree with everything dan said,
David will be missed by all of us who were close to him or knew him.
It's a tragedy.
I never knew him but I heard about the overdose.
Hey Laurin. go crawl into a little bubble or something and just never talk again. Because the world will be made better that way. David could be an ass hole sometimes but he could also be very nice. He's helped me out with things so many times and not only that, he has been a friend to me. I don't care how you feel but it just sickens me that you would find it funny that he's dead. You sicken me. Yes that's right, let me say it again. You sicken me! Shut up and let the guy rest in peace! He's had so many issues that you could never imagine. You've never lived a life like he has so you would never truly no the extent of his problems. While I don't think suicide a good thing to do to solve your issues, he definitely needed help and for you to say that he deserved it is so wrong. I hope the rest of your life is just as bad as his life was. Then maybe you'd understand. Or maybe you wouldn't because you're a closed-minded prick! I am not at all a christian person. But I will say to you, go burn in hell!
You know, everyone wants the topic removed and everyone says close it, yet we're all adding to it? i know I had to add to the topic to point this out, but again, if you want the topic to be removed, write the admins, and don't keep adding to it. and if you got shit to say about Marrisa or anyone else, please take it up with them privately. Ok, i know i'll be shot so I'm shutting up now.
Agree with toonhead at this point. Leaving this topic open is only serving to create a lot of ill-feeling so I'm going to close it here. Of course the obvious trouble with doing something like this is that somebody may just start a new thread along the same lines however, I'd hope that anybody considering taking such a course of action would consider everything that's been said here and would decide against such an act.
Topic closed.
Dan.
