The KJ community has lost one of their own.

Ralph, the administrator from another forum, and formerly of karaoke warehouse's forum, has tragically passed away. The police found his car on the side of the highway, the engine still running, and himself inside. They don't suspect foul play. It looks like alcohol poisoning, from what his cousin is reporting.

The man had recently lost his six yr old son (death was attributted to a horrible seizure), and Ralph was just stricken with guilt.

May God bless his family now, moreso than ever before. This tragedy just doesn't seem to be ending for them!

Matt

Yes Matt, and if you can believe this is true, we have had one individual (that I might add belongs to this forun as well) already join Ralph's Christian board expressing his gladness over Ralph's death.

Putting all differences aside, it seems that it would be a sick thing to be happy about anyone dying, regardless of any differences.

There is also a false rumor that I will be taking over the board(s). Unless I am contacted by the surviving family, I have heard no news to this affect.

Well I don't care how much hate you have for someone, THAT was totally uncalled for. I can't believe that even the poster (not naming names) would have that much uncouth! I just lost the last little shred of respect I may have had for him. Wow, unbelieveable!

Well it seems as if the rumors of Ralph's passing has been greatly exagerated. I just talked with a person very close to him, and it seems he is alive and well, and at this very moment attending a school function with one of his other children.

As soon as Ralph is back online he will be investigating the individual that posted the lie at Karaoke Jam.

A double tragedy,

Tragic that Ralph lost his life to depression, I grieve for his family, so sad.

and,

Tragic that anyone would lower themselves enough to take such a cheap shot. That's also sad. Someone still here that could contribute so much sacrificing what ever credibility they may have had because of one cheap shot.

Sometimes when we are in front of the crowd and in command of the microphone the things we choose NOT to say are more important than what we do say.

Pray for them ALL.

IT IS A HOAX. Mamapam, Ralph's better half just posted he is alive and well. A cruel hoax by an evil person. Hope he gets charged.

Yes, Matt. Round up a posse.
String 'em up I say.
I hope Ralph can track the IP address.
(he's good at that)

Meister, If the person was smart enough to ruse a whole board, Don't you think they would be smart enough to go to "The Cloak" and pay 5 dollars to cloak themselves with a proxy IP which may route thru Hong Kong and Singapore ETC ?

Just my opinion. Personally I'm sceptical of the whole story and its conclusion. I now understand how people like the REV Jim Jones, And David Koresch conned large groups of otherwise Intelligent people.

The more likely story Is that something did happen with Ralph and It was exaggerated and later covered up out of embarrassment.

I have no beef with Ralph except our usual total differences of opinion.

So why is it then Jimmy, that the moment the word of Ralph's death hit Karaoke Jam, you joined Ralph's Christian board jumping for joy with remarks not suitable for any board, let alone a Christian board?

Not only did you rejoice over the news of Ralph's passing, but you defamed me as well.

Like I posted yesterday - There were times in the past I stood behind you, but not anymore. Not that I think you could care less anyway.

Gary

It's not that they were "smart enough to ruse a whole board"... it's that they were underhanded enough to TRY.

I hope you're happy with yourself. In one fell swoop, you've alienated nearly an entire online contingent.

The man LOST A CHILD! HOW dare YOU?!

Have you guys been sniffin' glue? GB2 I have no idea what you are talking about. I never joined a christian board. Remember this, On the kw board peoples posts were altered and Phantom posts were created under other peoples names.

There are several kj's who will attest to this and a few of them posted it here at ks last year, 3 off the top of my head are:

#1 - Tricia (Pink House Productions)

#2 - Pshyco Attitude

#3 - Chip Staley

I don't feel I need to defend myself against nonsense, Go ask these 3 individuals.

Matt, Self righteousness is not a virtue, Do you feel better now?
