No. You can ignore if you want. I just find it sad. Always liked watching him play, which is something I usually can't find a way to do for a rival player. His energy brought something to the game. Would have liked to think that he would live happily ever after, but apparently that's not the way his story ends.

I agree with this. Respected his game. Seemed like a characteristic guy. But I have no tolerance for suicide. I don't care about your excuse or crutch. It's weak and it only hurts those who love you.

I get this. I kind of want to take the same attitude. Particularly in a couple of situations that hit closer to home where I saw the fallout and pain that it causes. But for whatever reason I always end up feeling more pity than anger. Maybe giving too much benefit of the doubt, but assuming that the person who offed themselves must have been in a personal hell I can't understand.
