RIP Sailor Steve - Page 2

nikimcbee · 09-02-22, 11:24 AM

I hadn't heard from him in a long time. I had the pleasure of meeting him twice in Salt Lake City. He's a fun guy to talk to in person, but that was a looooooong time ago.

RIP Steve.

@Neal, when did this happen? I can watch the local SLC papers for an obituary.

I'll always remember the time he PM'd me the first photo of Keira Knightley with her tit(s?) showing I had ever seen. It made me happy.

Thanks Steve and fair winds to you!

Steve,

Thank you for all your help over the years. You touched many hearts and minds of this community.

You will be missed.

Fair winds and following seas, Steve.

I have never seen this thread.

This only confirms what I have always suspected. None of you are wrapped real tight.

I must be in the right place.

RIP Sailor Steve :C

Rest in peace Steve.

Pisces · 09-02-22, 03:01 PM

Such sad news. Never met the guy. Just here on the forums. But he was a fair nice guy moderating us. RIP Steve.

elanaiba · 09-02-22, 03:08 PM

Oh damn... we are diminished ....

Steve was such a great guy. Am happy to have met him in person. Sorry I won't get to do it again

Rest in Peace, buddy!

What an enormous loss - what a huge, inestimable and irreplaceable loss. We two also had some clashes (beep-beep) but this hugely intelligent guy never EVER bore a grudge. We might have disagreed rather crossly at times (and I also got canned by Steve) but in another thread on the following day it was all forgotten; I always admired that quality in him so I always made a point to send him sincere birthday greetings. I just hope I didn't upset him too much the rest of the time

So long Steve - I just told Moira and she is so sad too

Then there was the time Sailor Steve and Dowly were battling over the use of asterisks in place of letters. That was priceless.
