I always clicked on any thread created by Gaborn. I always stopped and made a point to read any posts he made anywhere else. His contribution will be sorely missed on my part. Rest in peace.
 
No, this came out of nowhere. RIP Gaborn.

I used to read his threads I thought they where quite interesting. Especially the duck rape threads blew my mind.
 
This is a sad day. We have 3 confirmed deaths on gaf now then? Was scorcho the first time gaf new for sure someone passed away or has the community know about other losses too in the past?

Deamentia was a member of neogaf who commited murder-suicide in 2009. He was the first I heard of. LINK: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=349823

Snaildog was another member who commited suicide. He passed last year. LINK: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=421580

R.I.P. Scorcho.

R.I.P. Coppertracks, I hope you have found peace.

R.I.P. Gaborn, as long as I'm posting on NeoGAF I won't forget being accused of being your second account. I still won't forgive you for posting about the man on pcp who (don't highlight the spoiler if you have a weak stomach)
ate his sons eyes
but you contributed far, far more good than bad while you were here.

For all of them, their time on this earth was much too short.
 
Such terrible news. I believe he brought something rather unique to this community and deserved the kind of reverence he got around here, in both a serious and humourous manner.

He and his threads will be sorely missed.

Rest In Peace Gaborn.
 
Such a shocking and sad news.

Although I disagreed with him on many issues, I'll miss his posts. He was one of GAF's most familiar thread maker and recognizable poster. Won't be the same without him.


Rest in peace.
 
Sad to hear he passed away, even though his threads mostly just depressed me haha

When you're part of a sizable community like GAF there will be users dying 'regularly' sadly.

Rest in peace Gaborn
 
Just keeping up to date with this thread and though it's obvious, it's only just hit me for the first time since I saw this thread around 10 hours ago:

We'll never have another Gaborn thread again. Ever.

:(

I've been experiencing this all day. Gaborn and I would sometimes pat each other on the backs for our awesome posts, and I'm never going to get to do that again. :(

It's really hitting me harder than I thought it would. I'm going to miss giving him a ribbing about his depressing threads.


I wonder how many GAFfers just disappear and no one goes looking for them. Kind of sad.
 
Rest in Peace my good man.

I cant believe it. :(
 
one thing I can say for sure,

Neogaf's off-topic forum is something I will never forget, what a rollercoaster of emotions is this part of the forum.

Rest in peace, gaborn, scorcho and all those who have left us without us knowing.
 
Even though I never talked to him personally or, hell, even on the boards, I felt his passing as more than just a celebrity poster. It's as if we all went to the same bar every single night and everybody has their specific barstool. I'm going to miss seeing Gaborn at the end of that bar. RIP.
 
Are we 100% sure on this?

It feels like a Gaborn thread to suddenly come back from the dead after faking.


That said, Gaborn hits me hard. RIP. It's so bizarre that a recognizable GAFfer has died.

What could happen is that the obit is for someone with the same name.

But, it was stated that he had a very unique name and people very close can basically confirm the news.

One could only hope though...

I hope that Stump makes the call and confirm the news to us.
