It is sad to see anyone passed at age 36 !

I am saddened by all the death in my extended family and in this Forum and also my heart goes to everyone at Virginia Tech !

Terrible news! Even though I frequently disagreed with Nightfly, he was insightful, intelligent and an overall good guy. Rest in peace, Michael.

:(
 
My sincere condolences to his family and friends.

He was one of the first here to want to get to know me when I started posting.
RIP Michael/Nightfly

It's good to be the king...
Nice words, AxxxC - a fitting tribute to NF...
 
I was stunned to hear about Nightfly, he was one of the first people I met here on FreeOnes, we got along well and agreed on many things and we argued on others. I always wondered what happened to him, its a shame and a great loss

The world just lost a good one :(
 
Rip Nightfly....

So much to say but not enough time tonight.

I am overwhelmed with emotion since I heard the news yesterday.

I am grateful to know that he got to know God before he passed. I have shared many chats with him over the 2 years or so that I knew him. He was someone who I came to care for as a friend and I am thankful he is no longer in pain.

RIP my friend.

RIP Michael.
Even though I only talked to him on MSN, he was still a great guy. I couldnt believe it when I got this email. Condolences to his family and friends.
 
I didnt know NF really , but I did have some correspondance with him , for registering with his site , seemed like a smart guy to me .

R.I.P. NF
 
RIP Nightfly.

Someone said why not bring his name back....Well why not rename a section for him?
I.E. Funny Pictures could be NightFly's funny pictures?

Another site I'm on had a member die from cancer. His name was attached to the humor section since it was the section he posted in the most.

Just an idea....

He was - imo - very intelligent, thoughtful (often), funny, opinionated, troubled (apparently), proud, frustrating, well read, ambitious, helpful, defended the little 'guy' often, decent, energetic (online anyway) and for a long time, a friend. And many other things.

I thought he would be around for a long time.

I wish he was not dead unless he is happier now. Then I am glad (for him) that he is.

I wish VERY much that he had shared his demon (alcohol) with us. Told us of it.

The last conversation I had with him we had a fight. And I typed things I wish I had not.

Darn it Micheal...you could have told me. You could have told us all (your online friends and semi friends). Maybe we could have helped in some way. Maybe just the telling might have helped you.

Two things I have learned from this (at least 2 anyway).
1) Never judge a book by it's cover.
and 2) Too much pride is never a good thing.

I type this with a tear in my eye (again - so I am sappy), I hope you are happy Nightfly.

I really do.

RIP Nightfly.

Personally, I think that is a great idea.

Those that have been here for a few years can attest to how huge an influence he had around here. When this palce was far less popular then it is today, he helped (imo) make it much better.
Certainly more interesting.

I think that is a great idea.

I am in disbelief after hearing of this sad news. I didn't know Nightfly that well, we spoke on a couple of occasions and the occasional reply through threads. By reading his posts I will say that Fly was an intelligent, and opinionated man. He could write very well and had no problems articulating his feelings and beliefs on the board. Everyone might not have agreed with him on everything but most members that followed the threads he posted in respected him...with the exception of the occasional noob who gets banned after 2 posts.

You will be missed Nightfly, I wish you godspeed on your journey my friend. It is my hope wherever your destination may lie that you find peace.

Actually I don't think this is a good idea, sorry.

Because this then becomes a when do we stop section. Who's to know that other great members that have been here in their time haven't died. Although we don't know because they didn't have a family member or friend to pass on the news to us.

Like I don't agree with bring his name back on his posts. Or again are we going to do to all the other members that have given something to the board. That would mean all members as they all give something. Also this would mean all members who leave in the future would have to keep there names too. Even if they only made one post.

Or are we going to include such as Jod, Aces&Jacks (member/mod) in this and all the others. Jod a great member who seems to have left us. Hopefully for the love or his life and got married or something like that. Not because of something awful. As also A&J.

Then stop complaining about every suggestion someone makes to honor Michael's memory, poggy.

That's all it is - people are just trying to honor his memory.

Let it the fuck go. Quit complaining and nay-saying every goddamned fucking idea. It ain't up to you, man. If it makes THEM feel a little bit better about OUR loss of a favorite member, then who are you to stomp and spit on it??? IT'S PETTY AND FUCKING CHILDISH.

I'm sorry, man, but I'm tired of reading you chime in on every little thing that someone says about him. I can't fathom why it would bother YOU so intensely to the point that you have to come right out and just blast everyone's thoughts out of the sky.

The dude - MY FRIEND - is fucking dead, okay??? Why are you so damned dead-set against every idea? We know none of these suggestions are ever going to happen, so why are you even bothering to weigh in on them???

He may have been an ass at times, but Michael was still my friend. I'm fucking thrilled people are suggesting stuff like this to honor what he brought to this community. Be silent and just let people express their rememberances of him in their way, dude.

:(

Just the reaction I thought I'd get from you AxxxC. As you are too close this and very emotional about it.

This isn't a moaning post or a post saying that he doesn't deserve something special. Because didn't I say something like that along those lines on MOTW last week.

But as I pointed out why just the one member, when do we call a stop to it. My points are valid and done with a sad feeling of regret. But this is a thought on why this shouldn't happen and I pointed out why.

There is many a member who leaves here and we don't know why, as I pointed out. They could have even been in something like the same situation. We just don't know.

As I said I felt like a bad guy posting that. This is because of the many fun talks and long debates I had with Michael.

I'll explain the rest in PM as it's private.

NF and I rarely saw eye to eye and every argument we ever had he always seemed to come out ahead,

but I can honestly say that his loss will be felt by me and I hope he has found some measure of peace.

, I'll miss knowing that you are out there stirring the pot.
 
And now that I have, I'm through with this thread. :hatsoff:

Same here.

It was never meant to bait you. So, sorry.

And FYI we have resolved this in PM and I'm honestly not happy to have upset a a member I call a friend in Asianxxxchick. Also to look like I'm dishonouring the memory of Michael.
