I was linked to this topic by another ex-VGF vet. A friend called me and told me the news.
I knew Knux since I was 9. I met him in the first months I was on VGF, back in 2000 (boy, this place has changed). We instantly became friends, and up until last week I was still talking to him over AIM. He was always a great friend through the years I knew him, and I'll truely miss him. I guess I'm sort of making this post out of sheer respect towards him. Thinking back on all the fun times we had together, I feel like I didn't talk to him enough in the past few months.

I heard from Dylan on AIM. When Dyl asked if I heard about Knux, I thought "Oh, Knuxie wouldn't go out on us."

I heard from Laura last night. I didn't know Knux very well, but from what I heard, he was a fun loving, easygoing, and all around good man.
May he rest in peace.

Now why would you look down here, anyway?

I miss you, man. You were a great person and a great friend and words fail when they come to you.
I hope where ever you are, you're happy.

I go to VGF to escape the real world. It's a wonderful place to be in, with wonderful people scattered across the world. At this time, I think perhaps I take it for granted that I can escape the real world.
Knux, if you ever want to return to VGF, if this was a terrible prank, we'd be glad to see you again.

Curt is having trouble with VGF. Server problems, he says. He wanted me to post his repects, too.
"Knux was one of the first online friends I've ever made, thanks to VGF. I may not like this place anymore, but putting this board up was an awesome gesture, and I thank you, Shane, for doing so. I would also like to thank all the friends I've made through VGF, as well as all my enemies. Without you guys, who knows what my life would have been like. And also, even though it may not seem like it, I would never wish anything like this to happen to any of you. Not even CodieKitty or Lurch.
Rest in Peace, Phil."

Neo, member about 9070 here. Lost my old account. Doesn't matter.
It wasn't right, and it wasn't fair and it was just plain wrong. We'd been in contact for some time now, a few years, even after I left VGF and stuff just happened. Knux was a great person and a great friend. Even if people hadn't known him as well as they thought they did, even if I hadn't known him as well as I thought I did. He still considered us good friends. We were good friends. We are.
