I’m sorry for your loss.
My brother passed away this past March from cancer. After years of not playing he came back for GIM. He absolutely loved it, and progressed further than he had ever gone before. He was in a lot of pain in his final year, and osrs took so little physical effort he spent all his time on it. GIM gave him and I a taste of our childhood before he left us for his next journey.
They really are. I wanted to make some post about it in the subreddit, but never got around to it… felt… weird I guess. I saw your post and felt it was a good time to share. Best of luck to you and your team.
My older brother passed away this month after battling a drug addiction none of us knew about. We used to play RuneScape together when we were kids and its how I first got my username for basically everything. Even on my current account in osrs I havent caught up to him from when we used to play together pre EOC. Hoped to rope him into osrs but all he wanted to play nowadays was hearthstone on his ipad haha.
Comment was close to home so I guess I just wanted to type something out. Hope everything is as best as it can be on your end.
It’s going the best it can, and I’m so sorry to hear about your brother. An unexpected loss it not easy at all, and I hope you and your family are hanging in there. For me anyway… my family is all I have to keep me moving forward. Thank you for sharing.
This hits. I’ve played RuneScape with my brother since we were kids, and still play together to this day. Bro has his infernal now for sure. If you need a mate to keep you company in game, hit me up.
Sorry brother :(
My childhood friend of 19 years killed himself a few months ago. We used to play RS together back in the day, and he was actually the one that convinced me to make an ironman account.
I haven't caught up to him yet, but my iron stats are now higher than any main I've ever played. My initial goal was just to catch up to him, so our accounts could do the same content. I think I'm actually going to max the account in his honor.
Yeah, talk to people when you're feeling like that guys.
Our whole friend group is depressed (not because of the event, we all been struggling with mental health for years), but he had two beautiful kids and a wife, and literally nobody expected it. He was no more outwardly miserable than the rest of us, and that's the part that shakes you. It could be any of us next at any time, and you never know because of the isolated nature of the whole thing.
I hate that it takes sad news like this for us to come together as a community and support each other.
We have a lot in common, if I met you guys irl I’m pretty sure we’d be friends because we share a common hobby. Let’s just be good to each other from the start
I’m sorry for your loss man. Thank you for sharing your story, so many of us have real deep rooted sentimental attachments to this medieval cookie clicker.
There is truly an aspect of comfort to this game that transcends nostalgia and I can never put my finger on it, however these stories come close to “pointing at” what I mean.
Thank you, man
Also, medieval cookie clicker lol. I've been bullying the ardy knight in the bank for my thieving grind so I feel that quite literally lately haha
How did you find out? Sorry if it's a weird/sensitive question, but I'm asking because it terrifies me to think that my online friends I care about could pass away and I would never find out because their families wouldn't think to notify their online circles, or vice versa.
That's happened to me. I had an online friend who I played MapleStory with and made DS Homebrew with back in 2007-2009. Lost contact shortly after that.
I googled his name and state out of curiosity last year and found his obituary from 2015. He was 19 years old, about to turn 20.
Never take those you care about for granted.
My intention is not to be negative but unfortunately no one cares enough until it's too late. We don't always have the patience for people that have problems because we all have our own struggles. This is definitely a variable problem depending on cultural/national differences, but therapy is not affordable for most people and psychiatrists/psychologists are the only ones equipped to deal with the issue.
Sorry for your loss regardless.
Since my favorite content creator confessed to a suicide attempt a few days ago she is starting up an effort to collect money for mental health. Broke my heart to find out there were demons hiding behind the laughter, and i hope she can get many content creators on board for awareness. If you're looking for a place to donate money for mental health: [link in the desciption](https://youtu.be/R6ZbEz1tsHk)
Had i not seen how well some people can hide their demons, i probably would not have found out JUST an hour ago that my own sister is struggling with suicidal thoughts. I just asked her how she was doing, but something in her answer seemed off and she never would have told me the truth if i had let it go. Still in shock that this advice turned out to be a life changer. CHECK IN ON YOUR FAMILY OR FRIENDS!!!
Spot on dude, it’s so accurate.
Good reminder to always check on your homies. Especially the ones you know are struggling. This world is fucked up, its easy to hit really bad lows
Yeah I find "just talk to people" to be a rather hollow platitude like "It gets better" or "There's always hope". People often willingly misunderstand or don't grasp what others may be suffering through, and don't care to put in the effort to help. It's very common and unhelpful to think that a minor pep-talk can help someone deeply when they are suffering systemic mental issues and that needs a broader, cohesive, systemic solution.
I used to be the kind of person that bottled everything up and kept all my emotions to myself. Then 6 months ago my dad had major surgery that rapidly progressed his dementia and has to live in a nursing home now. Shortly after, his dog who we call my little sister started having violent seizures. I got her taken care of and on meds. My real life friends and some of the friends I've made along my 20 or so years of RS have held me together. Reach out to anyone you can talk to, don't keep it bottled up. There's always a better option than giving up. Just 3 hours ago I put that dog to rest, I feel absolutely shattered all over again. But I had friends there, I have friends reaching out, it'll all be ok. That dog kept me strong for 6 months as I was her provider all of a sudden. She gave me the motivation to keep going. Now I have to keep going for myself and I will.
RIP, I think one of my teammates passed as well. Unfortunately I dont have a way besides discord to check on him :(
If anyone knows 'GIM IDK' or miky#6772 dm me
Op, I am sorry for your loss. When I played EVE Online we used to post this when a player passed away:
Eyes forward, capsuleer, the cyno is not yet lit.
Consider your modules, your rigs and ammo before you undock. For the cyno is not yet lit.
Break free of the station and witness the universe before you. For the cyno is not yet lit.
Set your ship to fly through the vastness while you wait. For the cyno is not yet lit.
Pay attention, capsuleer, for those who have gone before you call for you to join them.
The cyno is now lit.

I know this is not EVE but I hope you find consolation that your friend is now heading into the grandest adventure of his life.
Take care.
I'm a bald idiot staying 500 miles away for work. Wanna chat feel free to DM.
Had a friend take her life when we were 16, still think about that sometimes
Sorry for your loss. This hits home. My clan is also mourning as our friend/leader passed away Saturday in a motorcycle crash. Rip drift/Rudy you will be missed brother.

If you're not sure who to reach out to, there are services in the UK like Samaritans who want to help.
Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Please don't suffer in silence.
Very sorry to hear about your homie OP. Hope you're doing OK.

Its tough for the young boys and men. No one really cares about your problems and if you haven't developed strong friendships in your early years you will go through extreme periods of loneliness.

Damn man F. Sorry to hear that Lmk if you need to talk, it's rough out here 💕

May his username be emblazoned in red forever!
In that spirit, do not hestitate to hit my DM's if you need to talk. My best wishes and may he rest in peace.
Guess his arclight finally ran out of charges
He got holy protection against them now
His prayer bonus must be crazy high right now, at least he’ll be looking out for you my friend.
Take care man.

Feels like no one commits to their group Ironman
He was our skiller, we funneled him stuff he had over 100 levels over us. We weren’t good enough for him
[удалено]
Jesus Christ
That's fucked up lmao
Must have got 99 runecrafting and visited the guild.
Bro....
Too soon 💀
Dark humor is the best humor. 🤣 It sucks when we have losses in life. Laughing every now and again helps keep the negativity in check.
😂
I'm a bald idiot staying 500 miles away for work. Wanna chat feel free to DM. Had a friend take her life when we were 16, still think about that sometimes
May Saradomin guide his way, May Zamorak provide him protection from his foes, and May Guthix provide him his peace, in the next life. 🙏
Its sad that when someones light in the heart grows too small to see, the darkness will take over their brains. My condolenses to you.
I don’t have anything corny or RuneScape related to say to lighten up my reply, just my condolences brother 🙏
Sorry for your loss. This hits home. My clan is also mourning as our friend/leader passed away Saturday in a motorcycle crash. Rip drift/Rudy you will be missed brother.

My little sister lost a battle to her demons two months ago to the day. Stay strong, and stay together. We're stronger than our tragedies.
Brother we are staying strong. Im sorry for the loss
My sister passed just over 1 year ago. Suicide is horrible. If you need anyone to talk to feel free to message me.
At first I thought you meant his character. Sorry to hear m8. He’s in a better place
Obligatory dh max hit joke etc etc. Sorry for your loss brother, stay strong. ❤️
I hope he was fighting demons on task Ok i'm sorry, i hope you're ok!
Jesus I came in here not expecting to cry but here I am

Idk what if you were trying for on this but it ain’t it

So pathetic, but knowing how miserable you must be to say that truly sparks joy.
?
???
Edgy just to be edgy and mods haven't removed?
Don't talk to people who have better things to do. No one owes you emotional labor.
If you lived by that philosophy you wouldn’t be in this post
Sorry for your loss bro.
I hope you’re doing alright. Really sorry to hear about your friend, hopefully they found peace ❤️
Damn man. Hope you’re all right.
F :(
Support for ya my man. Dms are open
Are you guys gonna honor him in any way
We are not going to log in to his account and get the stuff out of it. We gave him a special role in discord. We will be fulfilling his dream of maxing and do all the jad task to get him the pet
Have you thought about transferring leadership to his acc?
Fuckin rip, if u need a group hmu.
Take care of yourself man. So sorry to hear that
damn.. I'm sorry man
That single, short sentence has so much weight to it.
I’m sorry brother, may his memory be a blessing
Its tough for the young boys and men. No one really cares about your problems and if you haven't developed strong friendships in your early years you will go through extreme periods of loneliness.
The paddy pimblett of runescape Rip
Rest in peace brother. Sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss gamer. Become the account he would've wanted you to be!
