Bob8466
This user was willing to die for the lulz... and did. |
Bob8466 ( Al22) was a unknown 15 year old boy from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, who was close to snapping and committing a school shooting at Jefferson High School, in September 2016. It is believed that he was calmly talked down from going postal, instead unfortunately choosing to take his own life and becoming an hero to us all. Investigators have learned that he had a notable internet presence, and was a lurker of ED and a member of our Steam group.
YouTube
He had a where he published several videos relating to simulated mass shootings, the picture of the account being yet another picture which was publicly released of Cho Seung-Hui, depicted in a Home Depot outfit. His following was rather small; he only had about 40-50 subscribers before he committed suicide. During the time that he was alive, a lot of the videos that were made consisted of him going on Garry's Mod and emulating the Columbine massacre over and over again, along with playing other violent video games and making up massacres of his own; for examples, a shooting at the post office in Grand Theft Auto V, or a high school massacre in Postal 2. Nobody really gave a fuck because it's been done 9,002 times before, but it does get funnier every time by the libtards who become infuriated by those types of videos. However, some suspicion was rightfully aroused after he published a video called target practice, where he shoots a bottle with a crossbow. If you look closely, you'll notice a picture of Hillary Clinton covers the bottle. Some concern was raised after the video due to him having easy access to weaponry. As time went on, more macabre lulzy videos were released. Then, he graduated to the use of pellet guns.
A few weeks later, he released footage from Uwe Boll's (then)-newly released movie, Rampage 3. The Rampage series is about a psychotic young man, Bill Williamson, who goes on a killing spree in a fit of terrorism and features extreme radicalization speeches. The movies were likely what inspired Bob to try out for the High Score. A major warning sign occurred when Bob released camera footage of his school, on September 8, 2016. Viewers expressed grave concern over the video: a user named Cannibal posted "This is a little bit Worrying", and another, Opteron stated: "bob, don't do stupid things!". Just a few days after the video was posted, Bob committed suicide at the site of his school.

Steam / ED Connection
Bob8466 was a member of our official Steam group, but we aren't aware of any posts made by him. His online friends often linked to ED articles and discussed them; Bob was likely a lurker on our site and didn't have an account (at least if he does, then we don't know it). Bob's memory was honored by ED by permanently making him the player of the week in our group, and many of the users have paid respects to the fallen soldier.

4chan
Somehow somebody on 4chan found out about Bob's situation and created a /pol/ thread, which brought in hundreds of replies. Countless trolls flooded his channel and shitposted in his comments section, and initiated a minor civil war; Cedar Rapids locals downvoted Bob's videos and BAWWW'd about the trolls and insulted Bob, whilst the 4chan troll army upvoted his shit and left a lot of insensitive and mean spirited remarks. He has been crowned the Prince Of /pol/ due to his similar sense of humor to the Hivemind. Internet comrades of Bob can attest that he was likely a /pol/lack and probably visited /b/ and /r9k/ as well.
