Wait, you mean there is no GAF line of succession? :(

Gaf has an expiration date ; ;
 
Just make sure to die in a really funny way, then you'll get a thread and detective gaf will find out that it's you.
 
Killswitch. If I don't log in every week then an email goes out to someone and they will come find my bloated corpse.
 
we had a brother drop on another forum, entensity. He was a regular poster so everyone "knew" him. He took a trip to Chicago and ended up disappearing after leaving a bar. His brother posted on EF about his disappearance, and it turned into a pretty big deal both on the forum and in the news. I'm not sure if they ever found his body, but he sure never posted again :(
 
Easy, it would be preceded with a thread like:

MD-age,
I've been shot 5 times in the chest. I tried eating pizza, but that didn't help. Should I go to the doctor?

well, it doesn't have to mean that he is dead. many people just drop out of "their life" without leaving any clues

Start writing GAF-notification into your wills, people.

Actually, I wonder if there's a business here. Like, services for handling online presence post-death. Death could be the next big web boom! (I'm actually only half joking.)

I think I heard about a company that does this kind of thing on NPR several months ago.

I have a list of things to do and people to contact, should I croak. So someone will make a "so, bjork died" thread on my account, but it won't be me. Cause, you know, I'll be dead and all.

Well, you'll know when I die, anyway.
You rigged the forum, didn't you? Whenever you aren't there to reset a countdown clock, it starts permabanning randomly. Make sure you set it to go off slowly, that way people can see it happening and know it's coming for them.
 
Hopefully by that time bots will have become advanced enough to interpret threads and mimic an appropriate post so no one notices.
 
I would expect a thread labeled "GAF I'm dying what do I do?" at some point before their untimely demise. The responses would consist of "Go see a doctor" and the like.

I did that once and got this as a reply:

Oh man, I totally forgot about this. And it was less than a year ago too.

And dude look at his post history. His last post was to confirm that someone that post on gaf was alive. Another poster said, "Good to hear he is doing well. I was getting worried he committed suicide." Not talking about deamentia but a guy deamentia was confirming who was still alive.

If Neogaf vanish when Evil is gone on his 200th birthday it will shock the nation. We can't deal with gaf being down for 2 minutes. How will we handle loosing it all together?

If he takes the forum with him, the living will envy the dead. If he passed it on to others, the dead would envy the living, and then we'd have all sorts of problems with zombies.
 
If there is a heaven, surely it's got a computer with access to GAF there.
 
I would put in my will instructions for my loved ones to change my avatar to HERE LIES JILL SANDWICH PEPERONY AND CHEASE.

:lol

Evilore cant die... he cant... he must not die! ;__;
 
I actually died, was reincarnated, and at 15 started a new account on GAF. Imagine how I felt when I saw people using the same memes from my past life.
 
I've got a list of what I want my friends to do when I die. Some of it includes my usernames and passwords and what to post where.

"He died doing what he loved: smelling fish."
 
Wait was that the guy that used to do pr for hudsons virtual console stuff on the gaming side? Wow! How the hell did I miss that?
