What the fuck? First Scorcho and now Gaborn?

Gaborn was always one of the more insightful and articulate posters on GAF and it was always a treat to read his posts, even if I didn't always agree with him.

RIP, Gaborn. RIP fallen GAF friends.
 
Man i feel bad, in one of his latest threads i was one of the posters who gave him shit for posting mostly depressing stories in our eyes while he mantened that wasn't the case.

Someone should post a sad story in his memory or something, he will be missed.

Yeah, I know I criticized him for posting all the depressing stories. It's just sad that the final depressing story from him is his passing.

every thread about sad news should have the GABORN NEWS logo at the end of the post

then again it'd make me feel bad each time

man, what the fuck
 
Gaborn was always known for his overly depressing topics, but the majority of his topics were scientific or uplifting stuff. Unfortunately the way humans remember the negative more so than the positive, everybody would jump on him for posting morbid shit. Then people like me and others would point out the positives onto deaf ears. I had fun in his threads and he was a really cool guy. Snuffed out way too young.

I'll miss you man. RIP.
 
What a crazy turn for this thread. I fully expected someone to say that they were in contact with the guy and that he was just busy or out of town or something...

Damn, this hits heavy.

He was such an integral part of Off-Topic and the community at large. Rest in peace, Gaborn.
 
Terrible news. I'm glad to have been able to know him at least through GAF. Always seemed like a good guy.

RIP.
 
Terrible news. I noticed he hadn't posted recently, but I never expected this. He was a huge part of the OT community. RIP Gaborn.
 
I'm very sorry to say that I'm fairly certain Gaborn passed away on September 26th, 2012.

It's not my place to violate his privacy or speak on behalf of his family, but there is an obituary for someone matching his exact name and birthday in the state where he lived.


What the fuck?!?!?! He hasn't been on FB but then again he wasn't much of a poster there.


GOD DAMN IT.
 
Remember when I use to lurk the gaming side and Gaborn was what made me even check out the OT boards due to his posts on the Poligaf threads. RIP dude.
