I know that you guys were often at loggerheads with Hawkeye but I’m sure that deep down many of it was not much more than banter, especially where he was concerned. The sad reality is that I learnt today that he passed away on Tuesday. Just thought it right to let you know. See here. http://www.supersupporter.net/topic/13659-rip-hawkeye-never-to-be-forgotten/

Wow RIP to a fellow blogger and rugby fanatic. Life is too short to have real enemies. The enemies we have here are the ones that make our lives more fun. Let us never forget that.

Wow Vlag - baie dankie vir die meedede ling - slegte nuus inderdaad. Ek sal beslis daar anderkant gaan inloer (dit is nou as my 'inlog' nog werk.

Het self so 18 maande gelede omtrent die Jordaanrivier oorgesteek - was vir 10 dae in ICU, maar onkruid vergaan nie.

Vlag I'm very sorry to hear about Hawkeye. Even though we had one significant disagreement, most of our interactions were friendly. He always struck me as an enjoyable and mature person. These events are often an opportunity for a bit of self examination, and I was probably 50% of the problem. As you say it's hard to walk the line between banter and vitriol as things get heated. And when things like this happen all the arguments seem pretty trivial. Several of us have been posting together for 16 plus years now. Enough time for guys in late middle age to become bona fide senior citizens, for some guys to get sick and as with Hawk, for some to leave us. Perhaps it's time to be a little kinder to each other.

@Beeno. Strange isn’t it. I was actually thinking how, when a lot of people were on your case regarding your qualifications, he was actually the one who set the record straight, confirming that you were not BSing. Despite everything, he was actually the one who was trying to stop the animosity between guys on this site and SS. At a time when this site was first hacked in a major way he was the one who offered and eventually did help the, then, owners to sort out the issues.

Yes he did that while revealing my place of work and my boss etc . Barlee then threatened to contact my boss etc. He also messed with some of posts of mine and deleted one critical one regarding the quaking incident. Biased mod for sure.

Not a straight shooter but its all best forgotten and forgiven. These things assume an importance they don't actually have.

Vlag, Hawk had integrity, but he was no angel. I believe he played flank back in the day?

@Draad. Yes, I think he did play flanker. And for sure he was no angel but then again, who of us can claim to be an angel. What he did have was a sense of humor. Very little of what he said and did was not said or done with a great deal of jest. I know for a fact that he had two names on here and he was forever taking the piss at a lot of people and it was very amusing to watch, knowing that it was him. People just need to relax and not take things so seriously.

No. There is now way that I am going to disclose that. I’m sorry Beeno. I just don’t believe that it is right to do that. He trusted me not to disclose it when he was alive and I am not planning to do it now because he has passed away.

Cheers Vlag, I regarded Hawk as a real friend, not just a cyber friend.
