Sorry to sound morbid or bring up some kind of dark memory that was unbeknownst to me...

but after the recent passing of one of my mom's facebook friends (whom she never met, only knew her through facebook) it got me thinking: has a prominent AF poster ever passed to the knowledge of the collective?

Yates is an infamous poster from the 2005-2006 era (I think) who pretended to have a brain tumor.

There are a few active posters who seem rather lifeless Smiley

Yates was an ass for what he put some of us people through, and I wouldnt encourage looking for his profile. It only brings up anger.

One can't get much angrier than an angsty 15 year old who listens to My Chemical Romance, eh?

But only as long as Nym doesn't disagree.

One of Nym's friends passed away but I think he didn't have many posts.

Well, we can't rule out that some prolific posters in the past, that simply disappeared from our view, might have died.

Yeah. Imagine being forum friends with him, reading that post, than later on finding out it was all a lie.

Good lord. After reading his apologies and whatnot, I said "what a bastard" and closed the tab.

Back in 2005-06 we had two brothers posting here - WiseGuy and CheeseWhiz - who both eventually left.  A while ago, WiseGuy came back just to let us know that CheeseWhiz had passed away, but I don't recall if he elaborated on the circumstances.  He would have still been a teenager, I believe.
