Kiwi Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 [quote name='Pris-' post='959478' date='Sep 17 2010, 02:16 PM']Man.... Even tho I come here ever so un-frequently, I know of him and have exchanged a couple of lines with him. This is horrible news! [/quote] I bet you never spat in his coke. Coke drink that is, not lines of coke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderthumbs Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Over the past few months, I've found that I've got less and less time to spend on Basschat, so I've sadly only just read the extremely sad news about Si. I never met Si but my first dealings with him (when he gave me website advice) left a lasting impression on me. He was always willing to put himself out to others. in fact, he was helping me for free at the same time that he should've been helping out a paying customer instead. He was honest and forthright, but what an incredibly witty guy. No matter what he said, and no matter how harsh (but invariably true), it was impossible to be offended. i still look back at the advice Si gave me now and again when I need to refresh my memory. What a shame that he's no longer with us to offer that advice to many others in a style only Si could. I'll raise my glass to a sad, sad loss.

Prosebass Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Not been on for months and just noticed this unbelievably sad news. Although I never met Si we spoke plenty on messages and emails and he offered nothing but friendship, help and advice. Truly shocked and upset.

xgsjx Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 He is indeed. Would it be too big a job to make a Si Advice sticky in memory of him? A list of quotes, tips & anything else of use/interest that he shared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waynepunkdude Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I'd happily put something together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 If you need a hand search through the countless posts, let me know. I'm pretty sure that goes for most of us here. It might make it easier if a few of us took a date/section each & PM'd you things? What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dood Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 What a lovely idea guys! If you need a mod to edit the post after it has 'gone live' - I know that any of us would be happy to do that, but include me and I will endeavour to help. I can pin it or close it so that we have a clean post to refer to - Maybe even post it in the BassChat Wiki guys!
