Title Question

[Cranberry Juice]

Hey guys, I was recently going through some sick build threads, and came across a post that was talking about a user named "rolex". In the post they said RIP, and I was confused. Went to rolex's profile, and it said "in memoriam" as one of his titles. Does this mean he passed away?

@Rolex was an incredible builder and an even better guy, but he did pass away.

I thought I did this long ago, but it seems I hadn't. Anyway I've created a thread sharing what all these badges mean on RCTalk - https://www.rctalk.com/forum/thread...these-banners-under-members-usernames.145032/

This might be obvious, but how do you tell when they have passed? I'm just wondering

Typically the person doesn't have a pulse.

I'm not sure what your plan is but I use @WoodiE as my medical emergency contact.
He keeps getting me approved for breast enlargement surgery but Mrs Certified won't let me get it done.

I would imagine friends or family notify someone. We also have a huge network of obituaries we comb through daily to see if any of our members have keeled over.

Pulse, breathing... and/or their reaction to being set on fire.

I do check mugshots and obituaries for people I know too.

In all seriousness. @Rolex was a community leader almost from the very start of RCTalk (back then we were RCNitroTalk). Many knew of him and knew him personally and for the past several years before his death - his health issues.

He was a fixture of RCTalk that was on the site nearly all day every day, and when that stopped, it didn't take long to find his obituary.

Thank you, I hope he rests in peace
