I haven't used this account in years, I used to use it quite a fair bit when I was approx 14-15 years old. I'm not sure if any of the people who used to be very active around that time are still around so this may be a bit of a waste of time.

I'm not sure if any of you will remember but there was a member with a name similar to ASFM/MFSA with a system shock avatar. He made excellent well thought out posts but eventually ended up getting banned. He made a new account and was around for a bit more until he was permi-banned again for his original offence.

Regardless, he had a youtube channel where he reviewed games, most of which were done very well. I'm sure if any of you old timers are still around will probably be aware of it. The shame is he died about a month back from a PE.

I'm not really sure what the point of this post is, I just felt like posting it to see if anybody else remembers him (doubtful as like I said, I don't even know if the people still use the site). His family are doing a charity drive in his honor but I won't post any links in case they think I'm advertising or something. You can find it through google pretty easily though if you care. RIP man.

EDIT: Yeah, a quick google shows up his username was MFSA, the acronym backwards. He also used the account Fat_Shodon and a bunch of others.

Yeah, I edited the post before I read your reply. I think Fat_shodon is what I remember him most by. Basing this on the search the yielded the System Shock 2 pictures I associate with it.

How is the board now? I use a bunch of other forums nowadays. Mostly British retailers ones. I haven't found an active PC games forum though. I remember dropping my activity from this forum when the userbase turned to trash. How is it these days? Hmm. I might start using it over the next few weeks and see what happens. I started using IGN for game news too after the whole giant bomb thing. IGN forums blow though.

Not many from back in the day are still here. Miss Fat_Shodan, AlextheGod and Manjina. You just have to realise that many people move on with their lives and GS is not the center of the universe. Though it still is to me, obviously. :)

Well yeah, heck, I haven't used this forum in years so I didn't expect many other people to be on here either. I posted in my OP that I doubted anybody would still use it so I didn't see use this thread would be.

damn, I always felt a sort of kinship to him. He always said what I wanted to say, only better. Must have been because he was English :P

How did he die? I remember he lost a massive amount of weight; was it heart related?

One of my favorite posters to read. I always like a well thought out argument even if I don't always agree. Too bad, I have missed him.

I think i vaguely remember him I have a much older gamespot account that I used for several years and used to see a guy with the system shock 2 avatar on the pc forums but. Didn't really know him but its a shame none the less that he died especially being so young.

I've never heard of him before, but I just watched his E.Y.E. review and can say it's one of the best I've ever seen. You don't find superb writting and analysis like that anymore. He will be missed.

Yeah, he made excellent reviews. I feel a bit strange re-watching them now or watching old ones knowing he's no longer around though.

very sad news indeed.

Sorry, I didn't know him. I didn't really go on the forums during my WoW playing years, so around 2005-2009 I pretty much didn't visit the forums. Before that I spent my time on union forums, not the general ones.

That's... pretty shocking (I even checked his youtube not too long ago). I didn't 'know' him very well and he didn't know me, but I liked his posts/video reviews.

'PE' = pulmonary embolism, I take it?

'PE' = pulmonary embolism, I take it?

Yeah, PE=Pulmonary embolism. My bad, I'm so used to abbreviating medical terms. It's basically a clot in the lung although the exact mechanism of mortality is quite complicated despite it's initial appearance of simplicity.
