I just read an old thread with a Sharpieman post in it...

Ben E Lou · 02-16-2006, 07:33 PM

...and I thought I should change his user title. I was going to do "R.I.P.", but I asked SWMBO, and she thought I could get some good suggestions from y'all. Thoughts?

Schmidty · 02-16-2006, 07:34 PM

Always Remembered

or

We'll Remember ?

Buccaneer · 02-16-2006, 07:36 PM

No because the titles are, for the most part, frivolous or humorous. Someone who didn't know could take R.I.P. as a joke. I think it's best to remember a person for what they had contributed in their time here with us.

You could put down his life span (19XX - 2005).

cartman · 02-16-2006, 07:38 PM

In going with an idea Bucc's post just gave me:

How about reflecting on his immense interest in Political Science, we put "PoliSci Guy in the Sky"?

I'm also picturing the eventuality of a new person responding to something he said in a bumped thread, and expecting him to respond back.

Missed Greatly.

I think "We'll Remember" is appropriate?

This is probably the idea that I'd think the majority of members could get behind. Some of the others suggested do not, I'd argue, reflect the views of most of the community. "In Memorium" or its variants might also be useful.

Greatly Missed might sound a tad better.

Yes. It makes me wonder how the rest of that day went down. He posted at 6:49am, logged off at 7:24am, and, according to one of the articles posted, went into Stanford University Hospital later that day, never to leave alive.

MIJB#19 · 02-17-2006, 07:46 AM

Classy Ben.

sachmo71 · 02-17-2006, 08:37 AM

please don't do that for me. mine should say, "Should have seriously considered salads"

Thx.

sachmo71 · 02-17-2006, 08:37 AM

but Sharpies tribute is very nice.

Kodos · 02-17-2006, 09:12 AM
