Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
I heard about this courtesy of an email from Paul Hodges, which is why I'm so late to the thread. I don't have much to say, because I'm as shocked and saddened as everyone else. NemZ was less than a decade older than me and should have had decades of life ahead of him. To pass away from a "sudden illness" at 38 is beyond tragic. And yes, this forum just won't be the same without him. Not at all.
Rest in Peace, NemZ. You'll be missed. My deepest condolences to your family and friends. You truly were "Like a boss".

Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
I'm shaking. I ended up checking the site today on a whim, but this....My God. (I noticed I have several PMs, so I'm assuming my email was either not going through or spam-filtered. Sigh.)
Everyone else had already said such beautiful words, so all I can offer is "Rest in Peace, NemZ".
(God damnit )
Tiny edit: At least I can use his randomized banners in memory of him.

Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
I haven't been around for a long while, but I wanted to express my condolences too. NemZ was the kind of guy who always said what was on his mind and never held back with anyone. Whether we agreed or disagreed I always thought he had something to say. I'm really lost for words and feel as floored by the news as everyone else. RIP.

Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
Everytime I come to this form I expect to see another one of his comments and then it hits me that I never will again. . . And I am made incredibly sad.

Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
I haven't been around for a while so I missed this announcement. Absolutely heartbreaking. My deepest sympathies to his family, friends, and all who loved him. Farewell, NemZ.
Someday I hope that we'll be reunited if that is what's destined to be. Perhaps we'll discover that elusive bible. And then we will finally be free!

Just saw his passing mentioned in another thread.

Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
If anything, I think I'll regret not talking to him more; when Xard got temp banned and I got agitated, he was straight there in response to it. It's somethings that these days, I respect. Quite quick and forthwith, he just wanted to get the issue resolved. In a way, I think I find myself fortunate to have interacted with this man before he passed.

Is this for real? NemZ is dead? WOW. He was one of the most straightforward people in this forum. Poor guy.

Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
Only finding out now because I barely go in this subforum but I felt I should still post my condolences for whatever that's worth
That's... a guess a reminder of all our mortality, he was very much a fixture on this forum from way before I came along.

Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
As a person who probably had one of the more tumultuous relationships with the man, this really broke me up. Wish nothing but the best for his family, and his legacy here will always be as a titan of discussion in the glory days of this site. He's done more for the understanding of the series and the quality of the debate here then we'll ever be able to fully appreciate. His aesthetic sense was top-notch his well. Was immensely looking forward to PMing him my thesis, and checking on the site now this is really crushing. He was a good man, and he left us sooner than I think any of us would've wanted.

Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
I've been checking in the last couple of weeks but it wasn't until today that I saw the thread about NemZ's passing..I am deeply saddened by this news And offer my sincerest condolences to his family. I've been a member here since 2013 and even though I hardly post I still enjoyed being caught up on all the major topics, and always looked forward to his posts and thoughts on any particular subject. His presence will be missed.
It's Ok if you hate me, I hate me too.

Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
I wanted to restart a discussion on one of my old threads. Only to read through it to find out NemZ had contributed extensively to it. So I feel it would be Gauche to restart a discussion he was involved in if he's not here anymore. . .

Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
Since I visited the site less last year, I haven't seen this until now.
I hadn't talked to him too often, but in the years I spent on this site (since 2012) he became a very interesting user to me, one of those users I'd always read.
This saddens me a lot, and I will remember him. He's linked to evageeks for me.

Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
Well I'm late to this, I did just get TV Tropes'd back here and saw a topic I thought was interesting and decided to stick around for a few days at least. Like Reichu I didn't always get along with NemZ, I've had many arguments with him over the years, but I have to say in a day and age when everyone seems to make everything personal he was a shining example of how not to do that. I wish more of the world could be like that. Despite out differences I'll miss him.
Oh, but God forbid any of these theories have any validity! After all, we are just brainwashing innocent people with Reichu's fanclub propaganda!--Trigger's Elysium sarcasm for the masses!
Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
Well shit.
I had to come back just to comment on this. NemZ is one of the few people on this forum that I would name-recognize instantly. He had that much of an impact, he was always interesting to read, and his graphic art skills were superb. 38 is FAR too goddamn young to die with such prospects still ahead, and it's a crying shame that he's no longer around. I wish his family all the best and hope they can overcome this devastating and presumably unexpected loss.
Gonna pour out a little fine Canadian rye whiskey for our fallen bro NemZ this night.

Re: NemZ Has Passed Away
I think how curiously cruel this sad news came to me, I was thinking that the title of this topic could be a joke organized for April 1, because the moment I see the topic, there was the unfortunate coincidence of having another topic above saying that this was April 1, and in this topic NemZ was commenting, this relief lasted little until comparing the dates of the topics and finding that this shocking fact was true.
I've never had any direct relationship with NemZ, but I've known enough time to get accustomed to your presence in this forum, your death is a surprise to me.
