Very sad. Whether you agreed, disagreed or simply ignored him you couldn't help admire his biting humor and larger-than-life personality. Godix was an original, irreplaceable presence whose absence will leave the org a little less unique.

Everyone especially Castor Troy.
I'll be done with college for the entire summer. In May or June, I would like to launch Dedicated to Godix II. I'll put the tread up now.
I think with this project we will get some closure.

I'm late in hearing this news, and I haven't been a part of this community for a while, but this is some of the worst news I've heard in a long time. I always held his opinions in the highest regard, and he certainly had his particular way of phrasing things, good or bad.

Didn't know you as well as I wish I had, but I considered you a friend. Gonna miss you, you delightful misanthrope.

Jesus. I don't want to believe any of this. I loved his asshole personality, because I always got the feeling no matter what asshole thing he was saying, he was doing it while smiling. He was all laughs and I loved him for that.

I hope he died smiling at least. :beer:

In fact it was during my anime club that i decided to show the video and was just blindsided.
I called FS and asked what happened.
Godix and I had been upset with each other for a while. He thought I was avoiding him, but as I kept telling him, I was too busy with school. The last message I got was an apology.
I wasn't able to be on IRC due to my busy schedule.
I know me and godix were extremely close. We exchanged Christmas gifts and talked long into the night about anything and everything.
Recently, (like 6 months ago) we were watching Soul Eater together and making comments as we watched.
Because of the fight, we finished the series on our own time.
He told me that he wanted to start watching Princess Tutu. (that was told to me in the apology.
There are many people I enjoy talking to on IRC, but he was the real reason I went on there. He's been my friend since day one, and every day, every...single...day...he would ask me for "titty pics" and he always got a big fat "nope." and he would go "auu..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I admired his ability to find humor in everything. I really hope to live by that. He could turn any situation good with a wise crack or two.
I will always have Christmas presents to remember him by, and a key-chain on my school bag. He had the determination to go back to school and finish, and I know that determination was passed down to me.
He was a cherished,and loved friend and I will remember him forever.
I can't think of any more to say, plus I wanna go cry now.

As godix would say every night before I went to bed, "good night, sweet dreams."
Godix, good night and sweet dreams.


He not only chersihed your presents, but the little notes with them. They gave me a smile as I prepared his memorial service.

Thank you for brightening my son's life.

His taste in music (as well as life) was eclectic. Something he had a collection of that you may not be aware or was Tom Lehrer. And his favorite of Tom's was Posioning Pigeons in the the Park. But then knowing him, you could have figured that out.

What the honest to god fuck?

I can't think of a more representational member of the org. I never interacted with him much other than IRC and the occasional forum post, but damn if he didn't have an effect on me. He was probably the single most influential non-admin member of the org. Hell, I was reading his stickied guide just the other day. He will be remembered.


It wasn't until the 5th page of this thread that I realized it wasn't some elaborate hoax. Goddamm.

I didn't know him quite as well as most of you did. I did talk to him on occasion and he gave me some pretty good advice. Harsh as it was to hear, it really helped. I gotta squeeze him into the credits of one of my new AMV's. He deserves at least that much.

This is really saddening. I wish his family and friends well in this time. This is quite a hit to the community. Take that as comfort knowing that so many people on the org cared for him.
