User Dawg/GuerrillaDawg has passed away
- Thread starter StraySheep

While I wouldn't say I knew him super well, Dawg was one of those internet guys that by virtue of exposure and familiarity they become a staple identity on your social feeds and networks. He added me on Facebook going all the way back to the GAF days, and he posted here for awhile too, plus we were mutuals on Twitter. For a guy I'd never met personally I'd still seen the incremental updates about his life; his study and training, his eventual employment and promotions in the rail system, getting his own apartment, his car, etc etc. Even goofy dumb shit like transforming from a dorky nerd to a dapper lad thanks to a trendy haircut and fancy threads.
Facebook provided a window into each step of his personal life and his social engagements, and Twitter and forums were a great way to enjoy his cheeky humour. It's surreal to see someone so familiar and so young just gone with such tragedy.

I wasn't super close to Dawg, but he was still one of my first mutuals and friends on Twitter that wasn't a part of the Persona sub-community, and I'll always appreciate how kind he was towards me. Especially because I wasn't a very good person all those years ago.
The idea that someone as kind as him is no longer in this world has completely shocked, and I'm still having a lot of difficulty processing that.
Rest in peace, Dawg.

The full details aren't known, and out of respect for the family I'd advise people not to speculate.
However, the 4gamers post has a suicide prevention notice, and the person who broke the original news on Twitter said he took his own life.

Suicide, earlier in the weekend just gone. Exact specifics are unknown, but not really the business of anybody other than those close to him. Phazon was very close to him and has been the main source of details on Twitter. His friends and family are still processing it and working things out, so if there's anything more to be said it'll come later.
What a legend and awesome person. Going to miss him. May he Rest in Peace.
God damn, I used to love whatever interactions I had with him. Even joined his PS4 group about MGS Dawgs.
Hope he rests in peace.
Hope he rests in peace.
