Okay guys. So I know I got a thread of mine locked the other day for some depression thread rule that I can't seem to find. But I need to post this because it's important to me and I don't care if posting it gets me banned or in trouble... But. I was on facebook and was reading a bunch of statuses saying RIP to a girl named, Emily Eliot-Gaines... I didn't quite understand what it meant but after some research, I looked around online, including the news station for my hometown, and found out... That Emily was in a car accident yesterday at some point. And she died. In the hospital. I barely knew her, but I feel sick to my stomach thinking about this. I have never... Been friends with someone who has died before so this is all new to me. I barely knew her, but I remember her. I remember hanging out with her a few times in drama class. I remember she had a beautiful singing voice. I remember that she was a really cool person. I don't know what to think. I want to cry. But I can't. I'm so confused. So I just wanted to say guys. That whether you're religious or not. If you could please have a moment of silence for my friend Emily Eliot-Gaines... It'd mean a lot to me... R.I.P Emily Eliot-Gaines 07/07/1995 - 12/03/2011
I posted this about that Race Car driver, it didn't get locked. If this thread gets locked, I'm going to be VERY disappointed. One moment of silence... for your friend.
Same thing for my old 9/11 thread. It didn't get locked, but it didn't grab all that much attention, either.
I'm sorry to hear that blize. Moment of silence shall be had right now. -- Sent from my Palm Pre using Forums
I know exactly how that feels. A boy in the year above died from a serious disease that lead to fatal results. I didn't know him well, but it still hits you when you think "I'll never get to know them", he was a swell guy, clever, had a good future... I am sorry, and I sympathise, for what you are feeling is completely normal. I shall make my moment of silence a long one, for both of them.
http://www.everypony.com/forums/sho...ion-and-the-overall-mood-of-the-site-New-rule Above is the reason I locked your previous thread and also the reason why I'm leaving this thread alone. Saikyo's and Cyber's threads were not depression threads but tribute threads, asking others to respect their respective events, as this one is. On topic, I'm very sorry to hear about your friend. I hope you get through this and wish the best for you in future. ~moment of silence~
I barely knew one of my mom's boyfriends that she was in love with. The guy was a crazy gentlemen, but ended up getting addicted to pain killers after an accident. He died from an overdose. When she told me the news and I saw her crying, the feeling equivalent was that of being electrocuted suddenly upon hearing it. A moment of silence is nice. I have not known any friends of mine passing away, but known many people indirectly who have.
I will pray for your friend Blize. I have lost someone i was friends with due to suicide at my school in october.. I know how it feels.
We're not tyrants, tribute threads are fine - like most things - in small doses. I'm ever so sorry to hear about your friend, may she find peace beyond.
