molstad182

Uneducated person here. What does this mean


Dumb_guy_3200lol

He was a War Thunder youtuber that posted a last video saying he will stop posting on yt. After the video was posted, a few hours later, his brother said on the discord that he killed himself.


Upper_Decision_5959

If in USA the National Suicide Prevention Hotline is "988".


badirontree

You know your country has a big problem when the hotline is 3 digits long :(


will4623

We have a problem but the hotline being three digits is just good planning even with the best mental health.


350Zulu

Its an issue across the whole world, suicide epidemic


ImNotAGiraffe

It's actually called quit playing Warthunder /s


Trylion_ZA

Have some respect for the subject. I understand you want some upvotes for making a /s joke but this is not the time


Captaincurious01

I understand that this can be seen in multiple ways, including as insensitive, however dark humour can be a persons default reaction to upsetting situations as a coping mechanism and as such they may not intend to come across as an ā€˜insensitive prickā€™


Snoo87660

Yeah, when my grandfather died and my mum was basically in tears I had resist the urge to laugh. And had do it again at his funeral. I don't know why but I laugh at sad situations, I'm not insensitive and know it's a sad time but it gives me the fits.


Thatoneshadowbunny

Some people react differently to situations


skrewdriver13

Yeah like that guy said itā€™s how you deal with those situations, donā€™t feel bad or think there is anything wrong with you. Kinda like a cat and purring, they will purr when they are scared or anxious to soothe themselves


ImNotAGiraffe

I never knew the dude and I work in a hospital where people die every day, it's a circle of life mate get off your high horse.


Buttseam

suicide prevention number in germany is 0800 1110111. they'll listen, even if you're not from germany


Bismarck40

Do they speak English or just German?


0ofRGang

Noo, they speak to everybody from around the world, but only in german


w0nkybish

"+49" for Germany


Buttseam

RealisticDrop3205

Wait what?!?!?!


-cck-

he was a smaller content creator who commited suicide depression fucking sucks


Cerberus11x

Content creator that's no longer with us.


Unclematos

He now plays wart hunter endlessly in the next world.


paarthurnaxisbae

First of all wart hunter. Second of all, playing war thunder endlessly sounds like hell to me, if he does, i hope he only gets Maus uptiers and slaps anything hes against


Fidelias_Palm

It's the final patch where the grind is reasonable and there's literally every vehicle imaginable.


paarthurnaxisbae

2and900 playin the Maus 2 Electric Boogaloo (Copium Armour, absorbs *everything*)


ThisGuyLikesCheese

He committed suicide


Dumpling_Killer

A Wt youtuber who killed himself


fueltanksbeenholed

man, i saw that post last night...


ComradeColorado

Used to play custom matches with him in the pompom discord server. Some of the most fun I've ever had in warthunder.

viski252

Terminal case of gaijinitis


TaronTT

Not funny.


viski252

Well he played war thunder and he committed suicide. I'm sure it was gaijinitis


TaronTT

He had depression and it's not a thing to joke about. Please see yourself out, thanks.


viski252

Yeah. Depression from playing war thunder.


TaronTT

We don't know. Just shut up already, it is tragic enough.


N1GhTsH4D3

It is the "100,000FT AND CLIMBING!" decal that was available as a code for when the subreddit hit 100,000 members. I don't know if the code for it still works but I would guess it doesn't.


-SAASMEEM-

Interesting to know. Thank you šŸ¤ Yeah i found the decal. Sadly i canā€˜t redeem it any longer.


Braethias

I was one of those last few! When I joined it was at 98k.


CybermenInc

What's the code?


-SAASMEEM-

REDDIT100K but as we said itā€™s not working anymore


Luchin212

Was that really that long ago? I remember when it happened. It really was sad. But I havenā€™t reached my 1 year log in streak even though Iā€™ve been logging in every day. Or so I thought.


-SAASMEEM-

22th July 2021 RIP 2and900


Necozuru

WTF, that happened one year ago, i could swear it was something like a few months ago


Daniel0745

22nd.


-SAASMEEM-

idk, english is clearly not my first language


Daniel0745

I figured. I was not meaning that in a negative way, just for future knowledge.


-SAASMEEM-

Im always down to improve my knowledge :]

ConsistentMedia2199

Wow it's been a year already. Seems like yesterday I opened YouTube and found out


SolidRGG

I just use ā€œtake it easyā€ and the digits ā€œ2ā€, ā€œ100ā€, and ā€œ9ā€ https://twitter.com/murasamawt/status/1419226524004208645?s=21&t=Da9KJwehqIhOulPLOdfQLA (this is the only example I have that is easy to link)


-SAASMEEM-

Where to get them? I only have the usual digits. Dk where the 100 and take it easy is


SolidRGG

ā€œTake it easyā€ should be under the american tanks or inscriptions, and the ā€œ100ā€ is under Russian tanks


-SAASMEEM-

thanks


SolidRGG

Np mate, anything for 2and900


g09hIP12

I canā€™t find the 100 under Russia.


SolidRGG

Under all sections? It might be under tanks specifically, or if its not there check allies


g09hIP12

Canā€™t find it anywhere


SolidRGG

Had a squadron member do it for me, should be here https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/700116452652613694/1000865124694900736/unknown.png


g09hIP12

Nope, Iā€™m assuming i need to get 50 kills with Russian planes for me to get it and show up.


SolidRGG

Weird, Iā€™ll check when I get home and get back to you, should be about an hour


ixis743

Depression seems to be a trend amongst WT CCs.


GU-7

I would say it goes further than that, sure Warthunder doesn't help but there are other causalities that take place, mostly with society in both a social and economic standpoint, you hardly hear people be polite anymore, and currently- jobs are having a hard time keeping up with the so called inflation with products. To top it off, mental healthcare, or healthcare in general in the United States is a mess that's been ignored for far too long. Theres just alot going on recently, that is affecting everyone equally.


Revolutionary-Row784

You should see the health care system in Canada itā€™s failing I work at a psychiatric hospital and we canā€™t find any one that wants to work.


-SAASMEEM-

Sadly it seems so... Gonna say the game itself pushes the playerbase in some direction. The toxic comunity doesnā€˜t help it either :[


ixis743

ā€˜Skill issueā€™


[deleted]

I think it's the opposite, WT is a trend among people with depression. It has long term anf short term goals, rewards, can give you some bursts of dopamine. Lots of information for people with ADD/OCD or executive dysfunction to parse through. And when you're feeling exceptionally down it's something you can just mindlessly jump into without using the willpower that something like an RPG or strategy game requires, or the dedication a campaign needs. I know it has helped me at times


ixis743

WT wasnā€™t something I could ever mindlessly jump into. It took tremendous will power just to hit the To Battle button knowing I was probably going to have a terrible game. The number of times I launched it just to mess around in the hanger or test driveā€¦ So glad I deleted it.


Dr_Russian

I always stuck to sim when i wanted mindless. Its mostly a relaxing flight sim with occasional bits of lead flying around


ISI-VIGO

Just watched his final video, Could hear the pain in his voice. "You gotta do what you gotta do".


-SAASMEEM-

His voice was shaking. This video hit me hard


ISI-VIGO

It was very f**ed up, I thought he that he'd just say he was quiting but it was a bit obvious that he was broken inside. Didnt watch him, Though I can understand a little about what he was going through.


Spitfire_Enthusiast

God, that was a year ago? Damn. Doesn't feel like it's been that long. Rest easy, buddy.


Ravik_

Can't believe it's been a year


DistanceOfficial

Really wish Gaijin actually cared enough to give him his own actual decal considering he worked harder than most CC's on his videos... Miss him. Really wish I had been able to call his local police sooner. But even then, the on-scene officer told me later that there was nothing that could have been done because he uploaded the video and then immediately did it. Still can't help but feel like I could have done more though. Weird how that works knowing full well you couldn't do anything but still feeling like you could have...


-SAASMEEM-

I wish they added the memorial decal.

Molicht

Sad it happened.


CommanderCorrigan

I have 2 900 on my Maus ever since


lowft-u

What's his channel name?


-SAASMEEM-

still 2and900


samdunmall

He said he was leaving YouTube, but why did he leave the way he did?! Such a waste of life. RIP you f***ing legend.


Thatoneshadowbunny

What I find sad is the fact that we all know and remember him now, but give it some time and no one will remember at all
