Screw you man, signatures are stupid, I'll judge people how I see fit. But of course I wouldn't wish death on anyone over the internet.

Can't check the links at work, how young was he?

RIP man.

Can anyone check to see if Berserker Barage has any clips in his fileshare that we could use? I think that would be a good way to pay tribute.

No films on his fileshare, but he's got a couple of pictures. Here's the link to his profile if you want to incorporate any of them. I may ask around to see if anyone has any film clips with him.

I know a lot of you guys hated on him for signing every post with the infamous ~B.B, but I just found out that he passed away yesterday morning due to complications from an infection. Pay your respects here if you want. I was fortunate enough to play a few games with him and got to know him more through H3ITWP, but now I wish I knew him better. The guy was a newlywed, too, so my heartfelt condolences to his wife and family.

Just two pictures by him. The rest are maps made by some other people.

Dedicate the montage to him in the credits.

Or that could work. Yup to you, Blade. Might be easier that way.

Yeah, I'm one step ahead of you there. Just got the infamous BerserkerBarage Avatar off B.net. I was going to put it in the titles with a couple of words. "In memory of..." or something.

So sad to hear about BB. That would suck to marry the girl you loved only to die a little while later. That sucks just as much as never finding love in the first place.

RIP, dude. I'll use the AR for you today.

I regret criticising BerserkBarage's use of his signature. I hope his wife, friends and family find peace at this sad and tragic time and my thoughts are with them.

Maybe the montage could be dedicated to him?

Yeah dude, he mentioned that she was his teammate in Doubles. They would play splitscreen online, its crazy how something as simple as splitscreen allowed them to enjoy a game for hours on end. Im an advocate of splitscreen gaming on Halo, anyone who plays it, appreciates it.

I feel really sad for her, she lost a teammate and more importantly, a husband.

I also thought that maybe this weekend during customs, we could Forge a huge "BB" and try to get as many gaffers in there to use as a dedication at the end of the montage

Don't know if anyone's interested in that

Edit: sorry letters, didn't catch your post

Does anyone know him personally? I mean, do we know if his family needs any help? It's gotta be hard being newly married and all, medical bills, and funeral arrangements. I'd be honored to donate if needed.

This is great, but combine it with what muscle posted. Something like: BB-MIA with the logo under it and then "Spartans Never Die" below. ;(

Sad news indeed. I saw his posts a lot on b.net and a few here. I never knew him, but it is saddening to know I never will.

Let's be honest, he was at the end of many jokes and harsh comments for using that signature... yet he never stopped using it. He had courage indeed.

I think I can wait for new info at the moment to be honest.

That is really horrible, I recognise his Tag and Emblem a lot and as much as I didnt know him hes definatly a familiar face, that really sucks. Its a really tragic story and my heart goes out to the family.

Yes, let's be a jerk because i missed a post
Click to expand...
The idea was mentioned and talked about in 4 posts on this same page... Just really frustrating when people skip over people's posts. If it was a page or two back I wouldn't really mind, but on the same page and six posts above yours? Pay a little more attention dude. Wasn't trying to be a jerk by the way. Just trying to make a point that you should at least pay attention to what is going on in the thread currently if you want to contribute. It comes off as disrespectful to other people when you choose to ignore what they are saying.

I don't really ignore posts. I'm just running on like 4 hours of sleep a day so sorry if sometimes my head doesn't remember things very well

I don't disrespect anyone over here, I always try to be nice and read all the posts.

My posts are ignored all the time and I don't bitch about it, so calm down, I was trying to suggest something nice

I just PM-ed DualX2 a list of 90 films where Berserker Barage was in the game. In many cases for clips, the camera will need to be detatched to find him. I don't want to spam the forum with a massive list of links, so if anyone else wants the list, just PM me and I'll get it to you.

Yes, and then perhaps combine that with a pic of a spartan using his logo, something like this

You seemed like a really nice person. May you find the clearing at the end of the path.

My sincere condolences go out to your friends and family.

Good good. I like where you are going with this. Especially the part where the Spartan is using a BR.

How does one know when their post is being ignored or not? When someone doesn't quote you and reply to your post? If I recall, most of your posts don't really have much that you can reply to with. =/ Also, where did you get the impression that I wasn't calm? I'm a very calm dude. I just don't enjoy seeing fellow HaloGAFers posts being overlooked and forgotten by someone who posts the same thing 3 posts later is all. You might not THINK you are disrespecting anyone by doing that, but there could be someone out there who feels that they have been disrespected when you do something like that. But I'm glad you agree with the montage tribute idea though.

Btw, didn't really want to waste anymore time talking about this, but I was afraid that you would think I was ignoring your post.

Let us know if you hear anything. I'd be happy to donate to a fund or otherwise send help/condolences.

Wow... That is such a sad thing to hear about BB. I unfortunately can say I have been around several RIP threads based on a motorcycle forum that I am on and this one here on GAF just comes as a complete shocker. I never knew BB but I must say I was guilty of joining in on the fun with giving him a hard time about his signature here. I hope he knew it was all in jest.

If someone finds a link/info in regards to helping out his family with donations, please forward it on. At the very least, I would like to contribute $ towards possibly sending flowers on behalf on the community for his funeral if you guys also decide to help.

RIP and my thoughts and prayers are with his friends and family.
