# it might not be in the best of tastes
but this is B3ta and and she was one of us.

The sickness has to go on.

# You make a good point, but I disagree.

# it would never be a good time to move the thread below down
but it would be done by someone wither it be social commentary, a demented cat or a cdc.

It will not deter thoughts of those who knew her and the thoughts of those who knew of her and nor will it make those thoughts any less.

I think this weeks mailout should go out in Jessies memory.

# Yes - to an extent
But sickness isn't an end in itself. This is a puerile digital arts community. The community bit is the important bit.

# true, its this places community which has made me come here daily for over 8 years now
but I would not want it to stop simply because something had happened to me.

Does not diminish her memory of her on here.

# Much that I don't wish to offend anyone, seeing as though I never met this person.
but I'd let the threads go on, there's a possibility this might entire event will become a meme of sorts. Don't know whether that will be a fitting tribute or not.

But moreover I think this is why the guardian chose not to include the word "cohesive" in its definition of the site.

# Huh? It's been a couple of hours.
Not that I know her or anything, but I don't think she'd want the site to grind to a stop permanently.

Although I'm hoping that if she gets mentioned in the newsletter, Friz would do something similar to finally get in himself.

# For fuck's sake, if this girl (and I didn't know her at all) loved this place so much
badly-drawn phalluses in garish colours would be exactly what she wants, despite the mawkish demands of you lot.

# I would tend to agree.
We've always treated tragedy with irreverence around these parts.

If you now refuse to do so because it's "one of us", then you're devaluing the tragedy of all them other people.

It's ok to mock 3000 people dying, but one b3tan dies and the world stops? Get real.

# this seems fair comment
I've just got back in & had to overtake a funeral procession on the road as did hundreds of other cars....respects to the departed & all that,but if the person isn't known personally then there is (by default)a certain amount of detachment from the event.My mum passed away a short time back...so I'm well aware of the pain that can be felt.....that said...those who wish to grieve should close b3ta for the day/week whatever....because life is destined to carry on and it's only looking for trouble trying to get others to "slow down" and feel "your" personal grief..........that said.......... rip Jessie(Nina)

# in much the same way as a previous occasion
people have friends and family who are members of this site, it's not a "one of us" thing.

# well said, fella
unfortunately images and comments leading to petty squabbles and personal snipes at a time like this over assumed 'netiquette' does nothing to help b3ta as a community at all.

# You'll be sure to let us know when people can post again, yes?
Wouldn't want to step on anybodies toes. It's daft bringing b3ta to a standstill - Jessie has some lovely tributes, and will continue to get more.

# if you want a tribute to the girl
how come you dark holier-than-thou cunts haven't even managed to get JPG's announcement on your Popular Page? Then it'd be on the top for all fresh visitors to see, and you can shove your Princess-Diana-outpourings up your arse, I hope none of us are arrogant enough to expect the board to shut down for more than a few minutes in the event of our demise, timely or otherwise.

Get off your horse, and get back to putting tits on animals.

# sad thing is to get it put on the popular page, you have to click `i like this`
I do not like this but if it is the only way to get it there, i`ll click it.

# and yet silly swear words got there first
grieve, please, let it all out, but don't silence everyone else while you do it.

# That's a bit harsh.
I agree with the sentiment of the original post that B3ta's not really the place to be mawkish, though it's hardly "Princess-Diana-outpourings" when people post here who did actually know her.

there probably aren't a few people joining in who do fit your description.

# She was a lovely friend of mine and to be honest, would feel no joy clicking "I Like This!" on a post telling me she has been killed.
edit: Most of the "fuck off and cheer up, it's only an internet forum" posters have a high /talk post count. It's strange how the /talk ghouls seem to have smelt a corpse and come over for On-Internet Reactions LOL
