As I've said before, I have the tolerance of a 90 lb girl - so taking THAT much would surely be suicide. I honeslty wonder, in this case... he took an idiotic dosage, but was obviously going for attention. Did he want to die? Was he atop the fall with his friends below, thinking "well, I don't want to do it for real... but if I do slip - it won't be so bad"?

...and given the number of online RPG games and their popularity, I'm surprised an IRC type death is news today. Well.

Agree with Dissident, what happened to Bill3000?

I remember him

I remember his dad or someone came on and posted using his name or something.

But did his dad restrict him from posting here, or did he voluntarily stop posting here? Because if his dad restricted him from posting here, he could return. But he may have just moved on as some people do. People can't continue playing civ games forever can they?

Are we that bad an influence?

You can, but it only records your score up to a certain game year.

I think Bill3000 has posted a few times since that suicide-threatening debacle. At least he's no longer a Demesosist

MRT144, beating each other with leaves in a sauna is very well-known around finland, and Russia. It's male bonding!


"male bonding"... ...

Ha. Yes, that's right. We've done it with spruce branches, too... but it's quite painful. I found some spikes in my body a week afterwards...

quote: Originally posted by Pekka I don't know what that Smoke2k is now facing, or is he facing anything at all. In here he would be facing serious charges for.. don't know the right word but 'not helping'. It's basically that you have to help anyone who is in danger if it doesn't pose a clear threat to you and your life. If you fail to even try, you will be looking all options to keep yourself out of prison. Maybe this ripper was stupid, but this smoke2k had his number, and was only cheering, and after he was getting serious he might actually die.. he went to sleep! In other words, he didn't give a kaka what happens to him, didn't do anything and he had all the powers in his hands to even try. That is unforgivable (almost) and he should face serious charges and go to juvenile or whatever because this shows he can't be more than 15. And get spanking until there's nothing more to spank.

I think the word your looking for is negligence. Or as mentioned on the series finale of Seinfeld, the Good Samaritan Law

Bill3000 was a former poster here on Apolyton. He had made up his own form of government called Demesos, which both leftists and rightists agreed was stupid. He was one of the worst debaters here-- think a Fez/Giancarlo of the left. As a result he was flamed many times. One day Bill snapped and announced he was going to kill himself. Some Apolyton posters did not take the threat seriously/claimed not to care-- those posters laughed at Bill and some told him to go ahead and do it. The suicide failed and Bill was taken to the mental hospital. He eventually returned for awhile, but even though some people felt sorry for him he was still unable to get along, because well he was still alot like a Fez of the left in terms of debating skills. Apparently he lost interest in the OTF since then, but the last time I talked to him he seemed to be doing well and becoming happier.

I've seen Bill3000 around - this board was more supportive than that one.

There's a few older heads here. Bill's Dad came online to say he was okay.

Its not the only threatened suicide we've had - there was also a serious one at Sidgames.

When I click on the ripperlogs link, it says "Sorry, the logs have been removed. I had to." and there is a link to a porn site.
