Just out of curiosity what is this thread about.

an emo kid who used to play here jumped off a building and died. a lot of people liked him.

:o

<3




ps jesse fuck off. thank you

fuck off why? Is this supposed to be a secret? It's a public forum and he's asking what it's about so I told him... Cody killed himself, I'm not sure what's wrong with telling someone what happened.

there's a way to disclose that information tactfully and respectfully.

Miss you, Cody

alright, I'll try again.

My late friend Cody, Whom I knew for several months and used to talk on the phone with for hours about various things, who also used to talk with me and Travis on 3 way in the middle of the night, had a very rough upbringing. He was a strong kid, with very strong emotions which he wore on his sleeve, and he was very good at kdice. One night without warning but after strangely letting me and I think Travis moments later or earlier, that I meant a lot to him, took his own life by means of jumping from a building. I was not the first to find this out, it was only through a text by Bahaduras that I was informed of what happened. I was very saddened.

That said, we all have our own way of mourning over the dead, and you have to reach a point where you get over it and let the dead rest in peace. I'm not sure bumping this thread and stirring bad memories and rehashing pain is any more tactful or respectful than simply remembering to yourself the positive things that Cody was, and leaving it at that. I never thought it was necessary or appropriate to nag Ryan about having a table named after him eternally. I also don't think it's necessary or appropriate to judge others on here for how they convey the events that happened. In my mind, Cody will always be the EMO kid that spoke to me at night about this battle of being in the closet, and joked about coming to North Carolina and walking me to my classes. He was a good kid, who ultimately made a terrible but selfish decision.

However, like I've had to do with the 15 or so other people in my life who are no longer with us, I got over it. It's time to let this thread die, there's no reason to keep sharing this with people who didn't know him.

respectfully disagree. ppl who bump this thread each year (myself included), do it to bring joy, with a tinge of sadness. sure, cody has his faults, but he was an overwhelmingly caring guy, and made an impact on a lot of people in this community. we've all moved on, but theres nothing wrong with reminiscing about all the good times. hell, i still do this all the time with close ones ive lost, even 10+ years ago.

cheers, cody. thankfully i never played GO with you :P

point taken monte.
however, kate telling me to 'fuck off' for letting someone know what the thread was about is uncalled for.
