How do you kill yourself on the board?

Some dude killed himself on this board after getting bullied.

you have no idea what you're talking about

blaming the message board for a suicide that likely had multiple, complex causes is really NAGL, especially since many on this board were (and still are) very shaken by it, if you read the thread.

We banned him this morning.

sweet

good

"him"

"Hmm"

Shouldn't "fucked up" be hyphenated?

union in or no? and which of our friends count as mgmt?

kinda curious about how many voters have previous union experience

Gawker what the fuck is wrong with you, now your staff will have to go to meetings :(

iiiiinteresting

man kinja commenters are really into being kinja commenters aren't they

I was really confused by the phrasing in this: http://gawker.com/texas-college-student-allegedly-killed-over-beer-pong-g-1709026113

Lacie LaRose, a 19-year-old student at Blinn College, was shot and killed at a graduation party last month after a fight that began as an argument over the rules of beer pong, according to one witness. Ronald McNeil, the 39-year-old alleged killer, told police that the fight was racially charged.

The Bryan-College Station Eagle reports that LaRose was killed at a May 2 party hosted in College Station, Tx., by Landon Duke, a 23-year-old recent graduate of Texas A&M. Duke told the Eagle that McNeil came back to his house and shot LaRose after he had already been escorted out of the party because of the earlier fight.

It took me like five reads to figure out that "by Landon Duke" was modifying "a May 2 party hosted" and not "LaRose was killed."

"While the social media mob is busy coming for Laxamana’s family, it’s also important to note that determining cause and effect when it comes to suicide isn’t easy"

nevertheless...

whenever gawker pretends to give a shit it makes their whole ethos ten times more infuriating

noteworthy journalistic coups include an investigative article revealing that the football star Manti Te’o had an imaginary girlfriend and the publication of photos said to show Brett Favre’s penis

balance in all things

yo fuck hulk hogan

hey hulk hogan

FUCK you

i know, ridic

it's kind of hysterical that Hulk Hogan of all people poses such a grave threat to Gawker. another hilarious part of that article is the terrifying realization that the "whatever, we'll just settle out of court" strategy may not work in this case

hey is alfred reading this thread. alfred? you are a free speech absolutist, right? is this a meaningful use of free speech protections? if somebody filmed me having sex & posted it online i would want $100m, & would not be totally won over by the argument that somebody's right to free speech extended to buying/circulating the video. even if - even if - i had discussed having sex on the radio. am i wrong or is this dubious, i need counsel.

I pasted it in the wrong thread.

Saw this thread revived and assumed the NYT story was responsible.

Hey gawker dudes, whatcha gonna do when Hulkamania runs wild on you?

“I’m pretty sure..." *wah wah on muted strings* "...we have a revolution coming,” said Nick Denton. *voodoo child intro* "A new world order..." *E chord hits like a jackhammer as Hollywood Hogan enters Nick Denton's SoHo loft*

“A lot of our traffic last year came from stories that we weren’t ultimately proud of,” Mr. Denton said.

You don't say.

i guess "ultimately" is a tic but i like the implication that they were proud of them at first but over time disillusionment set in
