This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

So one of my players just commited suicide

Its his birthday today. Just stopped by his facebook page to post happy birthday wishes and found out. He was a good guy, really sweet, friendly, good sense of humour, fun player. Still kinda shocked. Wish I had somehow could have guessed and talked to him or something.

Just make your fuckin\' guy and roll the dice, you pricks. Focus on what\'s interesting, not what gives you the biggest randomly generated virtual penis.  -- J Arcane
 
You know, people keep comparing non-TSR D&D to deck-building in Magic: the Gathering. But maybe it\'s more like Katamari Damacy. You keep sticking shit on your characters until they are big enough to be a star.

Those of us who suffer from depression are very adept at keeping it hidden. There's still some stigma about it and who wants to hang out with a downer?

Your game and the social activity it provided were a good thing for him. It's not your fault.

My condolences to you, his friends and his family.

I almost had that happen once, he just disappeared, turns out he tried suicide but was unsuccessful and got locked up in a sanitarium after a hospital stay.

Sorry it was more tragic in your case. But it really is shocking, I had no idea he was feeling that way. You can't blame yourself

Quote from: dragoner;776244Mechanical character builds remind me of something like picking the shoe in monopoly, it isn\'t what I play rpg\'s for.

Sorry to hear that, TE.
That is a difficult way to go for the people left behind.
I won a jillion RPG design awards.

Buy something. 100% of the proceeds go toward legal action against people this forum hates.

This made me realize there is someone I should check up on.

I'm sorry this has happened to your friend and to you.
