I entered to discover what was the cause, but saying I don't know a person isn't disrespectful at all. Your answer otherwise is quite disrespectful.

Oh sure you are. You could choose to not write a comment like that and quiet leave but nope. Yeah, totally not disrespectful/s

So you assume I'm being disrespectfull, and answer that with being disrespectfull with intention right?

So why are you even here? To make an a**hole comment about a death?

Whether intended or not, it comes off as incredibly disrespectful.  So, maybe instead of being defensive, reflect a bit so you won't make such mistakes in the future.

When it comes to content creators, they always have to put on a show for the camera. Even when they've had a terrible day, they have to be entertaining and (usually) positive if that's part of their online persona.

I've seen a number of examples of suicidal youtubers by now, and they usually seem perfectly fine and normal.

Think about that some times when you watch a content creator. Think about how you would react in your room when you're alone, to what they're doing. Usually 99% of the time I'm just staring at something with no expression.
It can seem exhausting even when you haven't had a bad day.

If I was a youtuber I would seriously think about killing myself also.

This! 

It's almost an underhanded way of trying to say someone is a nobody.

Don't care about your intention, but the way you wrote your comment about the death of someone in this situation, it is definitely very disrespectful

So let me get it right.

When someone assume an offense and offend me back I'm the one wrong? Great line of thought. Whenever I offend you in the future keep in mind that you can't defend yourself, reflect about why you have been offended so you don't give reason for it.

You know what? If you didn't start with that comment (intended or not), everything will be fine



DonFerrari, I've written you an apology that you can pass on to those in this thread who may have misunderstood your original post. Feel free to copy/paste and I'll feel free to delete this comment.

"I'm sorry if what I said seemed insensitive. I didn't mean it that way but can understand how it was taken that way, and for that reason I can understand why you and others in this thread could be upset. In the future I will be more mindful of what my remarks may be misunderstood to represent, especially in a case such as this where a young man took his own life. We should be taking this time to honor his life and to respect those who enjoyed his contribution to this life, even if some here never knew of him before this sad tragedy."

I'm not writing this to mock you, but rather to steer this conversation back to its purpose, which is to pay respects to someone who lost their life.



I agree with Super_, I'll add I feel an apology is owed by Hoang for taunting Don.

I'll write it for him.

"I'm sorry for assuming your intention in posting in this thread. I felt a certain amount of disrespect was implied in your post. From now on I will not make assumptions (or taunt) but instead politely seek corrections if I feel there is a misunderstanding. I appreciate that you can take responsibility for any misunderstanding just as I have done."



On topic,

If I recall, wasn't etika the one who first showed us what the switch looked like? I vaguely remembering a vid of him cracking up and flashing a switch in his hands for a second before dashing behind a couch.

Anyway. Sad to hear. This sounds like a tragedy. I don't know what to say. I wish he found what keep him going.
