Inactive Richard "Lowtax" Kyanka - Deadbeat (emphasis on "Dead") founder of Something Awful, forced out of his own community, on his second divorce, stuck his dick in crazy, "Birth Giver"

[Beautiful Border]

I guess the injuries from his boxing match with Uwe Boll finally caught up with him

 

[Hatoful Dandy]

RIP Lowtax.

 

[Privilege Power Hour]

Lowtax was an absolutely pathetic guy who didn't directly contribute much to anything other than being a laughingstock but was indirectly responsible for a huge chunk of the internet's sense of humor by founding SA, so in the interest of being nice might as well remember him for that. I never really resented moot for leaving 4chan for his gig at Google because it always seemed to me he was avoiding becoming Lowtax

After all these years of waiting, Keep it Real has finally struck

Rest in Pills

Im not thinking that eulogy is going to go over well, if Frags doesnt know the recent lore.

I'm guessing suicide with a really spiteful & bitter letter.

I mean maybe he took a bunch of Oxycontin and downed a fifth of whiskey or some shit. Maybe he slipped down the stairs again. I was leaning on maybe OD when I read the pinned thing.

 

[JoyfulDarter]

I want to hold off until there's more proof, but I agree that he might have actually bit the dust.

This is coming from someone who knew him personally, it's not like some rando on twitter is all "oh yeah he's dead my source is my ass lol".

 

[the luckiest number]

RIP Lowtax Mangosteen is my life why did you delete my posts about it?

 

[Fictional Character]

I hope his family is okay.

They are now that he's dead.

I mean maybe he took a bunch of Oxycontin and downed a fifth of whiskey or some shit. Maybe he slipped down the stairs. I was leaning on maybe OD when I read the pinned thing.

I hope he killed himself and blamed Kiwi Farms and expressed his undying support of trannies.

This is legit sad for me but I guess not unexpected. I always found Rich funny and like watching Gaming Garbage and then Shmorky up pitched his voice and things went down hill from there. I remember on one of his later streams, before he grew the beard and went off the rails, he got tired of playing whatever he was playing and just started talking to chat. Someone mentioned Shmorky and his reply was something like "Yeah I miss him too" and it had genuine sadness behind it. He may have been spiraling before it but I think the sorta betrayal and loss of Dave changed him in a way he couldn't recover. That's how I see it at least.

I will always be grateful of Rich for Doom House and introducing me to Earth Defense Force. Thank you for that Lowtax.

Lowtax passing away while his site SomethingAwful is dead in the water seems fitting, but also a tale on what happens when you try too hard to live on the Internet

 

[Happy Fish]

Jeez Dr. Boll, I know he didn't like your films but you already kicked his ass in a boxing ring. You didn't have to murder him.

Spoiler: ...

RIP Lowtax

 

[Morch Ponkey]

He is renting out a fire pit in hell for troons to take explicit photos in now.

 

[Covfefe]

I imagine the thread will get featured once we have confirmation.

And the tag will be changed to "Inactive."

Joke's on you - featured without hard proof, still a Careercow.

I am glad he's dead for what it's worth.

 

[BlueSpark]

why are his pictures leaning against the wall on the floor

He'll get around to putting them up later

 

[Bill The Fucker]

Instead of dying from a Xanny/Jim Bean combo on top of a pile of long-empty Goldbelly pie boxes, he could've died from an Oxy/Johnnie Walker combo on top of a pile of FULL Goldbelly pie boxes. BPD pussy really can ruin your life.

 

[Spergichu]

I won't believe it until I see an urn with his name printed on it.

 

[Colorfinger]

lol

 

[Transniglet]

I wonder what alpha male Uwe Boll has to say about this.

 

[Mesosalpinx]

Who would have thought that downing a bottle of Lyrica with a box of wine every night would have consequences? May his skeleton's osteophytes continue to grow for years to come.

 

[Kornheiser]

What will happen to his mangosteen drinks now?
