Why would you or anyone get disagrees for simply stating RIP?

Because they don't care about the message but the messenger. That plus I tend to trigger some individuals with facts and they don't like to read/hear that.

People getting triggered by facts only because they don't agree or it is bad for their preferred console is just sad. Anyway don't let it get to you fellow gamer because more so then ever people in general are just very sensitive nowadays.

Sad when anyone dies. Thanks for all you did for gaming.

I kinda love and hate that you're saying that with a username like deathdeliverer. It's a bright spot on an otherwise somber event, I suppose.

On topic, these industry deaths are one thing I believe unites gamers and reminds us that we have a common love of the hobby. I'm a PlayStation gamer primarily that's just done with Xbox, but I would take no pleasure in the passing of anyone in Microsoft's side. These figures have done a lot for different people and made waves in their lives in different ways. I'm glad we can see that and be amicable towards each other when these things happen.
