Re: A Tragic Loss for the Mod Community

Wow... how old was he when he worked on DC? He had to be like 12 or 13 right? DC was big like 3 years ago wasn't it?

Anyways, I am sure his family will miss him. Sorry for their loss.

People like Tom showed the value in the community (and endless tinkering) to a large multi-national corporation. And he was only 13 at the time.

I worked with Tom - he was 13 when he started

This indeed is a tragic loss.. Thomas did great things for us on Desert Combat he was amazingly talented at such a young age.

He will be missed....

Agreed, countless hours on DC, DC final, Enhanced dc, and DC extended. What a shame, 16. Way too young with not enough done.

Pretty remarkable. I can't even figure out how to use the BF2 mod editor and I'm 18.

I am a father of two, and every time a young man losses his life, I think of my two year old son. My prayers are going to his family, especially his parents. I cant imagine that kind of pain and loss.

It's sad to see such a young person die.
This is not a tragic loss only for the mod community, but for everyone who knew him.
Rest in Peace Thomas.

Re: A Tragic Loss for the Mod Community

such a shame to loose someone that young, he made some great contributions for some great mods, his work will be remembered.

Re: A Tragic Loss for the Mod Community

this is soo sad if he stayed alive and by the age of 30 he would have probably had a great career and would have made lots of great games for us and meybe hardware technology. Its sad to see such great talent go away and a boys life.
his name is the same as my and his age is the same as my. Now to thin about it i should do more about my life.

Re: A Tragic Loss for the Mod Community

I wish there were words to offer the friends and family to make things better, but of course there aren't in situations like this. He will be indeed be remembered and appreciated by the tens of thousands of fans that enjoyed the fruits of his labor and talent.

Re: A Tragic Loss for the Mod Community

To tell you the truth, I didn't know him, but he was one of us. I believe that everyone is one of God's soldiers, and that it was Thomas' time to go home. There are not many people who are known by millions of others, so even though he lived a short life, he lived a full life. Thomas is very special because God choose him to go to heaven before all of us. I've lost 3 family members in the last year and even that won't compare to the pain that his family is going through right now. But everyone has to remember, now he's with God.

Tragic loss

As a parent you wish you could wrap your kids in cotton wool. Deeply saddened when I read this.

Rest in peace Thomas and my condolances to your family.
