Renton 21575 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) Agree with Ewerk there, imagined this was birthday thread. Only met him once in the Trent I think and he seemed canny, no indication he was ill on here either.RIP Jon.

catmag 337 Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 I'm going to sort something for both forums maybe via my PayPal. I'll send flowers and then the rest could go to Sir Bobby's charity in his memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1244 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Fucking hell horrendous news this. Think he was posting when I first joined the old board. 31 is far too young. Thoughts go out to his family and friends. Rip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McFaul 35 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I used to wind him up about oots and he always took it for what it was, banter. Proper upsetting, genuinely loved the toon you could tell. One of the few kids on these forums better looking than me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inochi 0 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Floored me, this. Can't believe it. Throughout my time on N-O, he was the only poster I struck up an actual friendship with. A positive person, we used to share PMs having a chuckle at the melodramatic nature of the place. When I got banned, he was one of the only people to make an effort to check why. He was the one who suggested I start posting on here instead. I've never used forums to meet people, but Jon was just the kind of guy you couldn't help but warm to. 'Was' man, for fuck sake. Had no idea that he had these kind of problems, other than a struggle with anxiety. I'm left disappointed that he didn't post more regularly here, as I'd fallen out of touch with him. RIP Jon, mate. You'll be missed, so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
