Sorry for your loss. I never had the pleasure of interacting with TGW, but I appreciated and respected his voice on the forum.

When I logged in today I didnāt expect to read such sad newsā¦ I didnāt know him, but I read his posts, he liked some of my post, I liked many of hisā¦ He was always around here and now I feel that something here is missingā¦

I got a shield from mv today, the second one this week. And I remembered TGW lamenting about shield shortage

I had no idea until today, until I read the āthank youā thread in General Discussion and a lot of people seemed to be talking as though TGW hadnāt only dropped off the forum or out of the gameā¦ and I assumed there would be something in this topic, and there was. Iām a cynical old moo who doesnāt get upset at much these days, but am currently dropping a few tears in honour of the brilliant, sometimes abrasive, usually hilarious poster I sort of knew. The memes and the teacups were particularly inspired.
Sometimes life really sucks.

Yes, it does.
I was thinking of TGW when I wrote my main post in that thread.
He has passed on, but we will always remember him.

All, thanks for honoring the memory of TGW.
He and I spoke a lot about the forums, and we always felt that a little empathy and kindness would go a long way. Frankly, after he left the forums I would hang on, but sometimes also get frustrated.
What made it easier was venting with TGW.
I try to give some kind, encouraging words and advice to new players but it is getting harder. I can also be a sarcastic type, but sometimes I read the responses here (not on this thread, other threads) and wonder, gosh, what did this poor poster do to deserve a reply like that.
With TGW away, Iāve lost a friend and confidant, and Iām just not feeling it anymore. Maybe Iām jaded, maybe I should just stay away from every sub-forum except Community Content, I donāt know.
I think more of us should remember - itās not only WHAT we say, but HOW we say it.
Anyway, thanks for keeping @TGW 's memory alive. Iām off to go re-read some of our conversations. But for now Iām logging out.

My dear friend, our whole life is a series of losses of loved ones. People close in blood and close in spirit. Around the same time that TGW left, my dad left. The pain of loss will always stay with me, but I know what Dad would say: "Pull yourself together, girl, and live! And I will always be with you. In your heart and in your memory. " So donāt leave. Life must continue in the name of those who have left.

Your dad gave great advice @ArktikaTF
I have always said to my daughter - whatever happens, hold your head up high, with a smile on your face and just be magnificent

@eagle1 I found the coffee conversation I mentioned. This was a nice, easy interaction with TGW. I think it shows a glimpse of the everyday TGW IRL.
It starts here: Vietnamese iced coffee
