I can't remember the guy's name. I remember some were worried about his mental health. Some were not sensitive to it.

Colin, and there was a poster on here who was encouraging him to do it, iirc.

I don't recall such a thing.

Sad the kid didn't get the help he needed, though.

I don't think there was ever any talk of anything like that. It was more a matter of a couple of posters who were pretty awful to him on a regular basis, calling him a loser and such, and who tended to try to feed his paranoia rather than try to steer him in a better direction.

I don't think anyone on here encouraged him or drove him to kill himself. He got ridiculed some, but I think most of us enjoyed his posting. His post were kinda in the same vein as ThinePreparedAni without as much detail.

Mates, lets all remember our good mate Colin and try to be sweet to each other as we lovingly debate our God Emperor Trump.

He had a personality on here that seemed really likeable and nice.

After it happened, it made me go back and think of all the times I might have posted a photo of a chemtrail or something like that, just intended as a sort of endearing way to say "hello, colin!" like the characters would say "Norm!" on Cheers. I don't think I ever really fed into it, or engaged in serious dialogue with him about it, but sometimes I wonder if I shouldn't have even made casual endearing jokes about obvious signs of classic mental paranoia.

Yeah I remember some guys piling on the delusional comments...
I would call them out, but it doesn't matter

What's funny is that it's pretty common knowledge that there is some geoengineering going on...even if not to the nefarious implications implied previously

I think he would've started election season as a Jill Stein supporter, but the Trump memes would've eventually won him over.
