I guess he pulled this stunt 2 other times in the past year on his webcam but did it with Tic Tacs. I guess the *******s thought it was the same charade. Its crywolf without the help.
No I get your point. You missed mine. I was referring earlier to what I had read. In fact the depression then sudden happiness is also another symptom I read about. You mentioning it helped me remember it. But you seemed to imply that I was talking in absolute terms when I in fact said usually. Which means I am not saying it is absolute and I never meant it to be taken as such. Which is why I added humans are chaotic so of course not all follow the same lines and/or symptoms. edit: However, if in your dealings I am wrong then so be it. Again I am referring to what I have read, a list of what is taken as usual symptoms.
You don't want to read the threads anyway. A bunch of (for the most part) people who just don't understand or aren't sypathetic towards the spirit of the man. They feel for his family but not for him which is totally ****ed up. People who don't feel sorry for people who commit suicide just don't understand. It's not taking the 'easy way out' for a lot of people that do it they've tried so hard for so long and see it as 'the only way out'. Walk a mile in someones shoes before you judge them.
Hmmm. Didn't get to read the threads as they were pulled down before I could. I imagine people were making fun of the guy and he overdosed on some pills? Happens everyday. I suppose this puts a face to it for most of you. For me, I have no problems with it. My cousin shot himself a friend of mine killed himself on my birthday, another after getting into a fight with his wife. A little over a year ago my friend's mother walked into his room to find him hanging, dead for hours. Point being, it happens all the time in all walks of life with all different types of people. The bright side of this guys apparent death is that it may open the eyes to others who otherwise might not pay attention to warning signs or may take threats more seriously.

I wonder about a group of guys that oil up and photograph themselves to share with each other. I don't question their sexuality at all but it still seems just odd.
This was disturbing to me yesterday, today it's even worse... He and I have the same last name (no relation)... Edit: Just saw the story in the paper... http://www.palmbeachpost.com/state/content/gen/ap/FL_Webcam_Suicide.html
Reading that makes me angry. Even if he is joking around, you don't want to just sit there because you don't know him and that could be serious. And then those a$$holes encourage him. Man, I don't wish to hurt anyone but I wouldn't mind see them getting their asses whupped.
Thats the beauty of the internet. People can hide behind the monitor without fear or consequences. They wouldn't do any of this stuff outside the internet.
That's on his moms myspace page. I thought of posting this or not but with any amount of detective work you could find this by yourselves. The way I see this whole thing is this can go two fold. There were people who sat there and watched and did nothing. The way I see it is I saw the aftermath of it and I made a contact to try and console. Not everyone who posts on forums are a bunch of *******s and this had an impact on me.
Sent his mom a email. I know for a fact if I saw that thread I would have registered and reached out to him. Serious if he was or not.
Definitely. If I saw that thread earlier, prior to his unfortunate passing, I would have done the same. So sad bro.
Some of the people did try to reach out to him. They weren't all sadists. Unfortunate that the Admin of that site didnt react sooner.
True but the moment he posted that most of the people treated it like he was trolling or was joking. Perhaps your right though maybe his mind was made up after the suicide letter was posted and didn't matter what was said. On his myspace he look liked a cool guy to chill with.
That's what I have the biggest problem with. If I was a moderator or admin there, I would have gotten his address and called the police immediately. The reason he didn't react sooner was because he thought it was fake. What kind of excuse is that? Yes the kid did do this before and he does joke around a lot according to some of the past posts but you don't just *think* something isn't real when you have a member post a suicide note and a description of the drugs he has taken. You immediately respond and if it proves to be fake, you still will feel good about it because you responded in case it was real, preparing yourself for a possibility of that happening and being serious, and you could possibly get him some help from the police because they may have put him in a program or suicide watch.
No bro, they are in the clear as are the members who egged him on. They will not get their just reward until the pass on.
I read that the members were deleting their posts in a hurry after they found out that he was dead. It's sad they let him just go through with it and egg him on. The fact is that if a person wants it done they'll get it done but I'll be damned if I'm sitting on a message board and someone posts something like that and I'm just going to sit around.
According to the original link posted, 2003. I didn't hear about it (then again, I don't recall being a member at the time) but that's very sad.
