Thanks everyone. I think I've made up my mind to start a new account in his name. I guess we could probably close this thread and let his memory live on
Sober enough to know what I'm doing, drunk enough to really enjoy doing it
My condolences for your loss, and the loss for all those close to Skeetman68. The healing process just takes time, but we can always have their memory stay with us.

Sorry to hear downy. I personally say play his name, or give your name some type of memoir on your name i guess
Sorry for the loss. I have had a few friends do the same I never understood what was going through their minds at that time. Leave the account as is it will be easier.
peace

sorry to hear your loss man...It will take a long time to heal, but hang in there
sorry to hear about this. But if i were you take everything he left behind, its the least selfish thing he did. Suicide is for the weak and selfish. Nothing in this shit hole of a planet is worth your own life. But if you dont want his things ill be glad to take them..

Downy, here is my opinion. I don't think you should play on his account, but you don't have to delete it either. Do you reallly think BF2 had anything to do with his depression? I think that you should just never forget him, but playing his account would do nothing but make you sad everytime you play. I think that suicide is a selfish act. He knew it would hurt everyone, not just himself. Playing his account wont accomplish anything but making you remember the pain. This is what you should do, go have a memorial service for him (not online like in WOW ). Put items next to his picture that resemble who he was (including his copy of BF2). If you want, you should get this topic stickied so all can remember. Don't burden yourself with playing his account. Live your own life, not his. I hope you feel better. And R.I.P. Skeetman68.
lets all jump on bf2s server for a 21 gun salute

Thanks guys, I'll be ok, it's his bro I'm worried about now as he is very depressed and nearly broke. So I was wondering if anyone could help me think of a good name for my new account. I was thinking something like "MisSkeet" (as in I miss Skeet) but that sounds like I'm a chick (which I guess could be a good thing when taunting other players)..."Skeeterbite" "RIPSkeet"? I dunno. I'd like to hear some suggestions if anyone can think of a good name incorporating Skeet's name.

I would think of the last time you two shared a good laugh together and try to tie in a name that way.....That way he can always be with you sharing the good times on the battlefield.
Sorry to hear of your loss Downy. And yes, I have played with him once. Good guy, which makes me sadder to know this.
I am on the BF2S EU server, if anyone wants to try the 21-gun salute that someone suggested.

I dont know what to say man. I'm sorry that it happened and I personally know how hard it is to deal with such a thing. I will pray for you and all of Skeets family.
Skeet will be in my prayers, mate
sorry that had to happen to you

Well then we are forever friends m8. Thank you for the kind words.k30dxedle wrote:

Why dont you make an open account for all those who feel for you and him to play on....like a communal thing?
Just a thought.....and Im sorry for the loss.

I would like to organize a memorial service for his brother to see. Maybe we could all get on an unranked server tomorrow with TS and have a couple people frap it and then make a movie to show Herb. 64 player server with a 21 gun salute. Maybe have the rest kneeling and looking down or something. Would anyone else be up for making a short movie for his bro tomorrow?

I will be part of the salute, depending on the time. I don't have Fraps though.King_County_Downy wrote:

I think everyone for the most part is on 1.3 and I was think at about this time tomorrow. Plus or minus an hour depending...Madhadda1 wrote:

I don't think anyone would fuck it up since it wouldn't be ranked. We could just ban them from the server and start over if that happened. I think a fly-over would be cool too.

if so i would like to do a fly over but i would also like to have a copy of it.... fly over is a really great idea jet right?
