Mightyman

Most of you probably don't know him but he use to be a member back when SCC and BSR were one guild. He unfortunately passed away. He was battling cancer and depression. He sadly took his own life. He was only 16.

We use to talk every day when we were in the same guild and I'll miss our crazy hilarious conversations, funny roleplays, and OOC silliness. Mighty, I wish we had kept in touch cause I really missed you. You'll be missed so much, friendo. <3

Here's the post from SCC, If anyone wants to read it.

I don't know what to say.
Seeing people so young perish makes me sad in a way that would be impossible for me to convey. I cannot even imagine how people who knew him personally would be feeling. My best wishes to those people.

He gave us a lot of laughs. One of my favorite memories was when he sang Hollaback Girl and My Humps in TS. Then made me sing the chorus to Dark Horse while he stumbled through the rap bits. I couldn't stop laughing.

He gave me the courage to speak in voice comms, which may not seem like much, but is a big deal to me. He helped me through my speaking anxiety a few nights and sang with me. Even made me the medal below after I did.

He was the first friend my character had when I began RP. And one of the first I had when I first entered the RP scene.

We didn't talk so much in the last year or so. I'm not sure why. Life happens I guess. But he still did a great deal for everyone. And I know he'll be greatly missed.

I hope he and Hunts are having a party somewhere and laughing at all of us. We'll miss you friendo.

I got to know Mighty during my time with BSR then in SCC. To me, Mighty was a very good friend and he'll be dearly missed. Its still a little hard to take in that he's gone. But I won't forget the moments of hilarity we shared. From our TS sessions to silly adventures in Cyrodiil and being a part of the Grumpy Cookie Club with Hunts, I will never forget any of it. Rest easy my friend.

Normally I'd go through the hide the video say its from a christian band and whatever, but let's face it, that doesn't matter. Depression is the most twisted sickness, because even if there are a thousand people holding their arms out to you, offering you a cure, they feel thousands of miles away, silhouettes, and the sickness can take you, even if the cure was but a step away from you. This world is often colder than we like to think, and this is but one of the reminders that darkness exists the the daylight, and stands behind the ones right next to us, and when there is light, there will always be shadows.

And that's why we must stand together, love each other, and not let petty squabbles get in the way of what's important in life: each other. I know it sounds kinda cliche, but, it's true.

I didn't know Mighty very well, but I knew him, and i knew he was a good friend to many, and a good person, and that's all that matters. This is probably the saddest death, because in another lifetime, this sad day could've been prevented, and we'd still have a friend with us. May his future be full of bright days, wherever he may be now.

The SCC will be holding a memorial event for Mighty for all those who are interested in attending. It will be partly IC, partly OOC from what I understand.

This is terrible. I remember having long talks with Mighty on Teamspeak after Officer Meetings about his opinions on things. He was young but very direct and I really appreciated that when I was running things around here. He was the kind of guy that made running a guild easier. He'd always help with the auction, setting up events as an NPC, or dealing with member's issues. We were all really very lucky to have him around.

I remember the conversation I had with him about if he wanted to be an officer in the guild. He had almost a militaristic outlook on things OOC. He was efficient, mature, and dealt with things by the book. I had no idea he was dealing with cancer and we talked all the time. It was always about guild stuff though. I just assumed he didn't have a lot to relate about to me because he was in high school.

When I tried to come back to ESO and join Sugar Claw Clan, it was Mightyman that explained to me why it wasn't a good idea. I didn't like it very much but I remember thinking "Here's god damn Mightyman being the one to cut through all the crap and tell me how it is when no one else will." He was never afraid to bring up a criticism or an unpopular opinion to me or anyone else.

He took being an officer very seriously. (Too seriously, I told him a few times. :) It's clear from the time I spent with him that he cared a lot about this guild and how things were done. One time he told me he was a "stone wall" to excuses. That stuck with me because it sums up my time with him better than anything else. He didn't let anything or anyone get to him. If he had depression, he hid it better than anyone I've ever known. Mightyman never caused any drama. He was the one that stepped in to fix it when things got out of hand.

If things became too painful for Mightyman to deal with to the point that he had to take his own life, not one of the people that knew him can blame him for that. I have to believe that if I had felt the same things he was and went through it, I would have done the same thing sooner because Mightyman never took the easy way out of things. He dealt with them with maturity and fairness well, well beyond his years.

I won't ever forget what he made possible when starting Blue Skooma or how great of a guy he was in the time we had to spend with him.
