im not getting in to the tit for tat stuff re:forums and members but i also agree i saw the thread and didnt post because he was a coward, at the time it happened i did post in the original thread to show compassion for his family as thats who i see needed the support, i still stand by the fact the way he went was selfish and cowardly and i am intitled to my opinion as you are to yours so i wont argue over the fact.
the one thing that does get me is why its been brought up again? is 6months an aniversary date? is there going to be another one at 7 months? the fact remains to me it happened the posts came in and that should be the end of it, is death something we all want to read about? did anyone really know him personally and not on the net? if not how can you speak for how he was or what he was like?did you ever meet him? ive been here since 2004 and i didnt have one dealing with him or even know he exsisted on this forum till the death thread.
as far as i see no one was pesonally attached to him so shouldnt bring the subject up, his family could come post and ask for rememberance if they chose to, i could understand if it was a member on here and it was there family member that died and wanted to remember them and asked others to.
i know this might sound harsh but my dog died a few years back and that has more compassion from me than tidyant, harsh maybe but the dog meant something to me on a personal note, do i post saying please remember my dog every 6 months?
i think to be honest theres too many busy bodies who should be minding there own business, did the op of the thread contact and ask the family if it was ok to post? did they think for a second that the family might not want the subject bringing up again? it could cause a world of pain for them reading all this stuff again,
by all means remember him, do the candle lighting but do it off your own back and remember him in private,
if ive upset some of you well all i can say is im sorry for the upset but i stand by my comments, if you want to hate me now then what will be will be and i wont be drawn into another post on the matter, final say on it.
if a mod deems this unacceptable then please feel free to remove it, i dont mind.
