I saw him briefly at a comp i was watching at break the bar gym last year and seem his usual hilarious happy self up til then I hadn't seem him for maybe 4 years? He was a great guy. Constantly ribbing me for being fat😂 was always giving out abuse like he was hers on sugden lol. Like others have said he was a funny guy. No other journal I have seen that included F for fail but also M for miss, so in aeffect it was still a fail but not quite so dramatic!! He method of max out every session had a lot of us un stitches I presume. It's so sad to think John was obviously suffering inside yet I guess that outgoing personality was just a mask. It so important people talk about mental health issues, it's quite close to home for me this subject. I know especially for men it's such a hidden thing Rest in Peace John xx | ||

I’m going to go! I never even met John, I only spoke to him a couple of times on the phone but the banter that I had with him on here means it wouldn’t feel right if I didn’t. | ||

Member 3241, 2043 posts SQ 1, BP 192, DL 255448.0 kgs @ 136kgs UnEq | No worries. I’ll try and cancel a meeting tomorrow morning I’ve got at 11am on Tuesday 10th and will update I’d like to go to pay my respects. He was a sound lad and only wish I’d gotten in touch with him more recently | ||

My asshole is not watertight. Member 2926, 6051 posts SQ 217.5, BP 107.5, DL 225550.0 kgs @ 86kgs UnEq | A sad, sad day but mixed in with it were lots of humorous moments and stories which anyone who knew Chaos, or even only knew of him (like I did really), would think "yep, that sounds about right!" Saw a few site members and ex-site members and there was a tremendous turn out for John. Literally, the crematorium was full and there was still another 50-60 people outside, which is a testament to what people thought of him. Let this be a lesson to anyone who thinks that doing away with themselves is the best solution to their situation. Chances are there will be a lot of people left broken by the decision and even more who will be extremely saddened. Anyone feeling that way, please just talk to someone. A friend, a family member, the Samaritans even. Just talk and don't act on it. I didn't go to the wake but I'm hoping all the attendees were able to regale their stories of him. Probably a good job I didn't go as the only input I'd have had would be to say how he called me a dwarf hobbit time and time again!! RIP Chaos | ||

Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22259 posts | Clearly a very popular guy. He used to joke about my "evil zercher cult" Shouldn't a moderator maybe edit his profiles ("chaos" and "order") so that his age doesn't continue to clock up? Doesn't feel right to me for them to be left as they are. | ||
