There was a user named TheDogfather who passed away a few years back.

His dad posted a topic on here to let everyone know. He even linked to an obituary. I recall the obituary making a reference to his online life and Gamefaqs, so I'm pretty sure it was legit.

The one guy who worked at a gas station and told us he was worried about some psycho killing him. And then he did... rip.

I'll try my best to describe them based on memory:

Hamstein: kind of just a normal dude. he posted about his cancer diagnosis up until he was terminal, then stopped logging in shortly after that

Popcorn Fairy: very nice guy, hosted some games on here and didn't bother anyone.

Foreman: also super nice guy, posted a lot of topics back in the way about his occupation.

We had another user here who died of cancer, wanna say it was about 1 or 2 years ago. I've fogotten the username but he made a topic about it, went over what his general chances were- very low, but he kept pursuing treatment options. Eventually, his updates stopped. :/

She may not have posted on here (not sure) but we followed their story so I think of them as part of the CE family.

It appears that was the user foreman. How did CE find out he died in that way?

Foreman47 (sp?) was a porn cameraman. He died during a gas station robbery.

I have no clue how people found out. Maybe they knew his real name from some of his films and they found a news story about it?

He began posting on Reddit more after leaving CE, and it was revealed by a family member on there.

There was an old man on the Call of Duty boards who went by makoshark.

He suddenly passed away some years ago and I remember when someone broke the news after they looked him up.

I used to view the boards even before I made an account. Heck, that's drew me here in the first place.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

We had some moments of very... sharp disagreements, but he was the one who encouraged me to sit down and finish my law school application back in 2016. Regardless of the scars I received throughout my three years of schooling, I do still remember and appreciate that.

Hard to believe it's been almost 8 years, though.

DKDKDKDK

P2E

are the main ones I remember. I listened to Lush a while after DKDKDK died because I learned about it in the topic about their death. P2E was mean to a lot of people but was pretty chill towards me and obviously had some things in his life that he was lashing out about, so that one hit me harder.

I first came here in like 2000. Though this account wasn't made yet til a couple years later. I had an older account but I left this site for a few years and when I came back I forgot my username, password and even whatever email I had used. So I started over. Yea, I'm a bit older than the average CEman. I was 20 when 9/11 happened

Not a CEmen, but J_Koch of Board 208 passed away in 2018, I actually helped pay for his funeral.

It is a weird feeling when someone youve known for decades but never met in person happens to pass away.

Its hard to explain really.

Flamizide passed away a while back his story is sad:

  • https://gofund.me/4972da04
  • https://www.reddit.com/r/gofundme/s/a9oyLywe0d


He was a Board 212 regular. This was my eulogy to him years ago

Flamazide is an old school user of Board 212, he's been around since the early TUF days.

His Board 212 claim to fame was betting 10 thousand (his entire life's savings) and Nate Diaz to defeat Conor McGregor, after Nate stepped in for RDA on less than 3 weeks notice. This board called him mad, but because he was able to catch Nate at +450 he made $45,000 to collect a grand total of $55,000 from the pay window.

Flamazide was also an avid boxer with an extensive amatuer record, and at one point had aspirations of making the 2008 Olympic Team. He stopped boxing sometime around the Rio Olympics.

Flamazide was a very helpful user, and was known for giving his old games away once he was done using them. This is how he became known on CE, as he would simply mail all of his X-Box games to other users once he was done with them. Flamazide was an active member of the CoD community as well as CE, especially its Discord channel - but Board 212 was always his home.

Like many users who have been long-time staples of this community but then suddenly fell off the map (Whemer, Dart, BendoHendo, Kadd, etc) I just assumed that he evolved past the need for GameFaqs as so many do, and was enjoying his life with his Diaz winnings.

Sadly this was not the case, and Flamazide passed away on October 18th, 2019 from persisting heath problems. His final GameFaqs login was the day before.
