Azure Prower Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 This is why people should not give their personal details over the internet. Never know when some deranged psycho is going to come after you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlickDaddySlick Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 So apparently, some butthurt member got upset because a mod was doing his job? He went as far as killing the mod? Come on! This is why people need to stop taking the internet seriously. Something as minor as a mod giving you a warning is no reason to kill. This is why people should not give their personal details over the internet.Never know when some deranged psycho is going to come after you. Agreed. Play it smart kids and use common sense. You don't know who you're dealing with online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirChadlyOC Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I thought Advance Wars: Days of Ruin was a little too dark for its fanbase. But in all seriousness though...wow. Unbelievable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hausdog Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Good god. Why so serious? I'm just having a good time, taking the internet for a ride. I wouldn't KILL anyone over it. Geez, just keep your internet life and real life separate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 glad to hear the forum went on hiatus in the mod's memory, and that memorial by the boy's parents is very touching. I'm always sorry to hear news like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted September 26, 2008 Author Share Posted September 26, 2008 I don't know... some mods are total assholes, and deserve some form of physical injury. I should know, I was one. Long story short, I banned a guy because he was a massive idiot, but I did it in a wonderfully public-humiliation sort of way. The other mods were all "you were kind of mean", and I was all "maybe if you didn't act like pussies towards the fucking idiots all the time..." and then I quit. True story.

SlickDaddySlick Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Geez, just keep your internet life and real life separate. Sadly, for some people, those two lives merge together with each other. I may be wrong, but for some, that is the only life they can live. Almost all of the folks you talk with online, you may never see in real life, so don't dwell upon it. EDIT: Besides, the only people who deserves physical harm online are internet tough guys who talk a lot of shit online, but are general pussies and cowards offline. Still, like I stated above, you should not dwell on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BardicKnowledge Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Wow -- Internet is serious business, I guess... I'll admit that I feel slightly awkward having the info needed to track me down easily available both here and Facebook after reading this.

DarkeSword Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I don't know... some mods are total assholes, and deserve some form of physical injury.

atmuh Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Nobody deserves physical injury for doing things on the internet.What the fuck is wrong with you? 100% absolutely positively wholeheartedly agreed FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PEOPLE THIS IS THE FREAKING INTERNET I would never wish physical harm on another person PERIOD but to do so on the internet is ridiculous. It almost irks me when someone in #ocremix (because it's just one big barrel of love) tells another person to "kill themself" or "die" or anything similar. Even jokingly I don't see how someone in their right mind can say such a thing to another person (and I always wanted such things said to be a bannable offense but obviously that never happened).

And climbed a wall of dicks with Doctor Eggman. True story. Cool story, bro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kureejii Lea Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 What an utterly asinine thing to die/kill over. How sad. I'm sure we all get pissed off at others over any form of communication at one point or another, but you get over it and move on. It's something else entirely to maintain that rage long enough to drive from Germany to the UK and put on a decent act so as to be willingly let into someone's home and then kill them. That's just sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Author Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Nobody deserves physical injury for doing things on the internet.What the fuck is wrong with you? Obviously, as a mod, you would say that... Is that fear I smell... Otherwise, you have to be a special kind of nuts to go that far over a forum.

Yera Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I know I'm a newcomer to OCR and haven't been around forums long enough to know if this is do-able, but... Would it be feasible for a massive OCR collab of Advance Wars soundtracks to be sent en masse to both the mod's forum and (possibly) to the deceased's parents? It could be something like what happened recently for bLiNd, where the entire OCR community grieved and suffered with him, only we would grieve and suffer with a community of fellow gamers. I don't know who could direct this project, but I thought I'd throw the idea out and see if anyone takes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeSword Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 It's a nice sentiment, but we don't really know the guy. It's a little odd to do such a huge tribute for someone like that. And nobody grieved for bLiNd. That was a well-wishing project aimed at lifting his spirits. It wasn't a tribute-album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
