rip. on the one hand he was accused of bad poo poo that looks overwhelmingly bad, on the other hand it's also possible the power of autism compelled him to tell his perception of the truth when denying it. ~fade to one last somber, muted scaxophone solo and then darkness

Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:I'm glad Matthew gaunt is still an embarrassment to journalism even by vice media standards. Do you think he'll retract all the articles where he took lowtax's word at face value instead of attempting to do journalism, now that he knows about his abuse? No way in hell. it refers to Lowtax as a programmer lmfao

Great Spirit, Maker of All Life. A keyboard warrior goes to you swift and straight as an arrow shot into the sun. Welcome him and let him take his place at the CRT of my people. He is Lowtax, our father. Tell them to be patient and ask death for speed; for they are all there but one - I, DocEvil - Last of the SA Goons

With Chris Chan and shadman arrested and Lowtax dead, it’s like the Layla scene in Goodfellas but with Web 1.0 losers.

I honestly thought this was another totally wacky and zany prank until this morning. Can't think of any better way to sum up my impression of him. I will say that I had a fair bit of fun around here in the past, so thanks for setting up this forum.

RIP Lowtax.  .Any suicide is tragic, regardless of how you feel about the person. He created this place, and it was his identity and legacy, even if his personal issues let it languish. Being so forcibly and publically removed from it by the community couldn't have been easy, whether it was deserved or not. It has been pretty disheartening over the last few years reading all the unemphathetic hate towards him and glee in his passing - though I see the tragic irony from the classic SA ' go kill yourself' energy, he helped perpetuate. I always had pity for him as a tragic figure in this story, and hoped he could heal for the sake of his family and health. I can't imagine what it is like to have the collective weight of SA clamouring for you to fail, even if it was his own deeds that led him there. I don't know what I'm saying here, but I'll reiterate a message we all hear a lot but often fail to act upon: if you're struggling with mental health, seek help.

William Bear posted:Good to hear that Drew Curtis paid his respects. Now we just need some words from this guy: I am in this room, although I'm obviously not in this picture. I believe this is the vegas suite of gooncon 2k4? I left at almost that exact moment and met some goon whose name I can't remember and proceeded to get blackout drunk, to the point that I effectively 'came to' wandering around in a vegas suburb. I hitchhiked my way back to the hotel and had to drive myself and some other unnamed goon back to San Diego. Welp thats my gooncon story thanks. EDIT - posting this in case either goon sees this and wants to catch up. Drunk goon - I know you returned my cell phone to that store in Illinois, but I never got it back. Other goon - sorry I didn't bring that DVD player for the drive. I always thought Lowtax was an rear end in a top hat, but I'm not glad that he's dead, and I'm especially not glad that he's dead this way. Those poor kids are going to have to deal with that now, and when they grow up they'll have to deal with his awful legacy Vampire Panties fucked around with this message at 20:48 on Nov 12, 2021 |
