Richard "Lowtax" Kyanka, the founder of the now dying Something Awful has reportedly died at age 45.
Details about his sudden death are unknown, though an article I read claimed an account allegedly owned by his ex said he shot himself because he would not be able to afford debt payments.
It should be noted he backstabbed everyone who called out the regressive left in defense of those freaks, and it should also be noted he is a domestic abuser and got canibalised by the same subhuman animals he defended at the cost of his site's reputation.
Let's hope the now ruined Something Awful transitions into an archive.

conquests 2nd law is absolute (paraphrased)
Slashdot died when CmdrTaco left...
They had a couple of those guys. There was Jon Katz in the late 90's/early 00's, then there was another guy in the late 00's or early 10's who did the same kind of shit. Just treated the site like his own personal blog, and the entire comment section of every post of his was people shitting on him.
