Locutus of Bored has Passed Away

[Silvercrest]

I'm so sorry to hear this. I also can't think of any interactions with him, but I still respected him.

 

[Random_Spock]

RIP, Locutus.

 

[Bynar0110]

I never had the chance to interact with Locutus. I want to send ,my condolences and hoping that he's resting in peace.

Board Manager here. We had a little bit of trouble here. I've soft-deleted the trouble - meanwhile the warning to RandyS stands.

Don't come into a memorial thread and lay a poop bomb. The Romulan will not react kindly to this.

No need to comment on this. That's polite-ese for just read my post and don't comment on it, but do carry on with commenting on Locutus of Bored.

Or else.

Comprende?

Carry on.

 

[Haggis and tatties]

R.i.P.
Safe journey.

I think it's safe to say that @Locutus of Bored was (and still is, if you go back and read his posts) literally one in a million. He had the power to teach, to inform, to influence, to change minds, and it was always evident that he posted with the intent of helping to make the world, by way of this board, better. As is well known, his intellect was exceptional, and his wit sharp.

I am very sad that he is now no longer among us. I wish I could have known him in person.

Go boldly beyond the final frontier, Patrick. Some day, I will follow.

 

[May 20]

Rest in peace.

 

[DEWLine]

I grieve with thee.

So sorry to hear of this. RIP Locutus. You leave this board a better place for having been here and I'll join the chorus of those who'll miss reading your posts.

Rest in Peace. Heard the news a few weeks ago (thanks to some people on FB). He seemed like a good guy.

He was the best of the best

Although I haven't been here in quite a while, Locutus of Bored is a name I remember with fondness and respect from my active days. His was a good and kind soul, and often rather witty too. My condolences to his family and friends.

what horrible news!

Locutus was one of the very few people you can disagree with and who wouldn't take it personally but stay matter-of-fact and try to see the other person's points. Sounds pretty crazy but quarrelling with him was fun because he was intelligent and witty (and sometimes annoying) and managed to see the person behind the posts and PMs, not just words on a screen.

I knew a few people like that, on my old site. It was fun, discussing assorted issues with them.

May he R.I.P.

One of us has gone to the other side.

May he find solace in the next life.

 

[Sterile Tribble]

Sorry to hear. I was wondering where he was.

 

[CarnelianClout]

I was never really engaged much on the forums, but I hope that he is remembered for the good he did here for years to come.

Wow, I came back to the bored when new Trek started happening again but haven't really checked out the other boards so just saw this post. RIP and I hope his family/friends are doing well..

This was my favorite of his avatars over the years. May he never stop flying....

That was a great one.

Another good one was "Commodore Organa" by Rabittooth, when he wore for a little while.

I also liked his "corona beer virus" avatar, but I don't have a link to that one.
