With such a successful life I cant imagine someone like this guy committing suicide and for some reason will not accept that. I dont know why thoughts of some type of coverup enter my mind. (Maybe to many movies) guy achieved all his goals. Just dont understand.

You’d be surprised at the kind of people that commit suicide, it’s often not the quiet mouse mat types everyone imagines. It’s often people who seem sucesses from the outside but inside just are not happy at all. Developing software doesn’t make you happy inside, it can just keep you busy and amused somewhat. It’s sad to hear when someone with talent dies and even worse when they kill themselves as it just speaks volumes about how unhappy they must have felt inside. I wish I could blame the RIAA for this saying it was a conspiracy but realistically it most probably wasn’t. RIP dude :frowning:

This guy may have had preasures from the sort of folk discussed above but I would think it extremely unlikely he would take his own life simply coz of that. There must have been other factors involved which are totally unrelated to any topics discussed on this site. His family are witholding info. and every conspiracy theorist simply appears out of the woodwork and cries “Hey, there’s something going on here we don’t know about…”. Sorry guys, but we’ll never know. Let’s just let the guy rest in peace and praise all the good work he’s done for the community here. I opened a can of beans the other day and it wasn’t quite as full as it normally is… hmmm… must be a conspiracy. Hang on fellas… back in a jiffy… Mulder’s at the door. Rest GK… :c
