I'm here to report the tragic news that one of our comrades and long serving community member, James Kinsella, AKA Jay132 or Jayshum as he was known on Xbox Live, has sadly passed away suddenly yesterday.

merry -blam!- christmas all.

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

Oh no! This is terrible news. Jayshum was a friend of mine on XBL who I played Halo with on a somewhat frequent basis. And, obviously, I was familiar with his posts both on the public forums, where he posted seldomly but always with flair, and in the groups he frequented. How awfully sad, and what a horrible day for the Jumpers and TFM.

It is a testament to his dedication and involvement on BNet that he logged in yesterday. It's a bleak consolation to know that he spent at least part of his last day here with the Community.

My thoughts and prayers go out to James and his family.

Stop sending me group invites -blam!-s!

I vaguely remember him. How did he die? That's sad, anything we can do like a tribute or something?

R.I.P Jay.

Womanizer, sword-whore, friend.

I hope you find peace on that giant ring world in the sky. ='(

Mourne not your comrades who must dwell / too strong to strive -
Within each steel-bound coffin of a cell, / Buried alive;
But rather mourne the apathetic throng / The cowed, and the meek -
Who see the world’s great anguish and its wrong / And dare not speak.

Damn... that's a real shame. Condolences to his family and friends, and anyone who had actually gotten to know him.

A sudden heart attack from what we've been able to gather.

He was a pretty big guy, so it sounds likely. He will be greatly missed by his clan, the TFM, and all who knew him.

RIP, First to take the slingshot into the sun.

That's a shame. :\ I didn't know him too well, though.

Ah, look at the lonely people...

I'm very confused as to what exactly is happening here, so...

Still, it's always sad to lose someone, no matter who they were.

Theres no reason to be a jerk about it guys. It doesn't matter who he is, it sucks that the guy died. If you didn't like him, then just don't post. Sheesh, people are real idiots sometimes, learn to have at least an ounce of respect.

i feel like clicking that shiny new spam button on Snowman's ass. I think Jay did an interview once is that correct?

  • 12.10.2007 12:25 PM PDT

I wish I would have tried to get to know him.
But alas I never did. It's a shame too, I like jerks.
I cry regardless.

Life sux, then you die, might as well keep smiling.

Are you any better? Would you think better of all the people who hate you if they came to your funeral and just talked -blam!- about you? Who gives a crap who he was when he was alive, so far all your doing is becoming what you hate, a d*ck.

To be honest with you I'm shocked at the reaction of this. I mean somebody just passed away. Somebody who was close to this community passed and people are laughing about this? This is my friend here people. If you don't like him don't post in here. Think about his friends and family. Think about how crappy it is for us to come on and see idiots like snowman bashing a guy at a time like this.

Please don't post in here if you have nothing better to say.

Rest in Peace my friend. You'll be missed. I guess now I can take over the throne as clan driver.
