guy dies of overdose- live on webcam

[LordNeil]

Folks who spend a lot of time online know about that weird line in the sand
between internet and reality. When does an online stalker become a real
threat? When does an e-mail flirtation become a real prospect? And when does
some online person's drug use go from an abstraction to a deadly overdose?

Here is a copy of the story, should you want a slightly biased overview:

Here is the guy's obituary:

And here is the actual f-in' IRC chat log so you can see word for word what
happened:

this guy seemed a bit mentally retarded if you ask me, i have no sympathy at all, you can call me heartless but if you have the will and stupidity to do something like this to yourself then you reap what you sew.

P.S. smoke2k should be hunted down and killed too, look at that guys log, utterly pathetic.

 

[Pancakes]

I agree with LiB.

 

[Dvoters]

Thats sick. What a freak.

\m/

 

[NAD]

That was uhhh... yeah. I heard about that a week or two ago but I just read the two logs. I wouldn't blame anyone but that ripper guy, but that smoke2k person probably feels like shit, and should.

 

[SentencedToBurn]

i cant beleive there is people like that who just dedicate their life to this stupid shit. they should all feel like shit.

 

[Nugent Goes AOL]

Fucking smart people, here. Can't believe these IRC assholes!

Overall, a sad story.

 

[ricochet]

Sucks but if he was stupid enough to do that and show off then I have no sympathy. Idiots and massive amounts of drugs don't mix well.

I think I may have stumbled into that channel before.

 

[Nugent Goes AOL]

Yeah, no sympathy here, either.

 

[‡Ärdor‡ Thë Dëströyer]

What a fucking idiot. Good riddance..

 

[Morningrise]

[05:50] <Pnutbot> shit is going to hit the fan soon
[05:50] <grphish> you're rifght

That is scary...the last two lines of the posted log. What a fucking retard, fuck....

 

[GreatPhoenix]

GODDAMNIT I couldn't find the chat log, I wanted to look at it again. Here's the direct link to the log. I know you've all read it but I can't find it in those links so this is for myself:

Anyway yea I read it last week and I didn't give a fuck 'cos any person that's stupid enough to do drugs to be cool should fucking die anyway. I fucking hate morons. Sad? No. Sickened? Yeah! Happy about it? Sure, maybe those assholes in the chat with him will stop doing fucking drugs and get some fucking sense.

Okay that was mean... refer to sig.
