It might be useful in case someone is reading through old posts to know if a user whose post they read is dead. You could get to know someone by their posts. How the implementation of this would work I don't know.

How about a custom title of "dead" followed by a choice of "natural causes", "suicide", "mass murderer" and "misadventure"?


Jeeze. Just think how shameful it would
be to have anything other than "mass murderer"
listed. :?

Extra titles can be added if needed... You will probably need one :P

That's a bit morbid.

Curious, Is Hannibal Lecter still alive, haven't he died in any of the movies?

I would agree. However, I would think that it would be simpler to use a dedicated thread in the Stats forum, but it also needs the consent of kith or kin.

Exactly, otherwise it would be entirely irrespectful.

I think all that can be said has been said. If you want to create a memorial thread, ask Alex.

Maybe not in that way. There are many, many definitions of "depressed". :)

I fit several. :) I see black holes, I'm understimulated, I crave attention, I get "mild" panic atacks, I don't get sad any more, thank God, I feel like I'm in solitary confinement and fear I will be for a very long time, any minor problem gets me depressed...


You have the "unable to see the bright side of some things" sort of depression... due to where you are situated in relation to the situation, I am guessing that you have not been exposed to the good part of it and therefore need to be. :)

So you are lecturing a group of people for being depressed when you are pretty depressed. How clever...

As for myself, I dont see the bright side of absolutely everything, but thats only when i cannot be bothered to look. I wouldnt call it depression, just pure laziness...

Ah, but laziness is a sign of depression. And it's the non-depressed side of me that's talking to you. :)

I never realised you were so multi faceted. As for laziness being a sign of depression, possibly, but I am an active person, if not too active.
