I saw this!

 

Thought it was pretty amazing for them to turn up! and for his family to find out just how many people he had touched in his life!

Played WoW for many a year (worked out i had over half a year in playtime.....ahh regrets) and i remember a lot of tributes like this.

 

One was when a well known user of a realm died the whole realm came out to pay there respects, nearly crashing the server!

 

When i die i fully expect a march of Dalek's behind my coffin shouting exterminate at everyone!

Coming from one of these active social guilds, it certainly struck a chord when I read this. One of our most active members who produces most of the materials to raid is unable to find work due to disability and everyone knows each other pretty well. Quite a number of older folks in the ranks too!
