Rest in peace, Justin 'Dropsys' Swint

By kz`Moxx mapper·
So as me, and probably alot of others know already, Justin 'Dropsys' Swint, passed away on the 4'th of May 2011, only 26 years young.
Justin was one of those people who were in the community from the start, he always had the attitude to help people with different styles and techniques. You could ask him anytime for help, and he would most likely help you out. He was a warm and helpful guy that didn't let his "fame" take over. Even though he started out as a new players as all of us, he quickly grew to a bigger level, jumping quicker and better than alot of people. He quickly made it to the world record lists with amazing runs and a great attitude.

This is a tribute to his memory and soul. Rest in peace, Justin 'Dropsys' Swint.

Was really shocked when I first heard, 26 years old so young.. dropsys helped me and alot of others learn different things about KZ, he was always willing to help. He was really talented in alot of different aspects. Going to miss talking and playing with him. R.I.P. Justin

Altho I did not know this guy and frankly haven't heard of him before this thread, I still wish to show my support to this seemingly great guy. To his friends and family, keep going, I'm practicly sure he wouldn't want you to "stop living" because of his death. [b]R.I.P.[/b]

pLaguE wanted me to post this for him: [blockquote]Man I was really freaking shocked when pizza first told me. I honestly didn’t know what to think, so I asked around a little bit. Turns out that he did pass, man it only hit me hard a day after, realizing that one of my old friends was gone. The guy was such a genuine person and had so many different talents, not too many people knew him on XJ, but a good word for someone who didn’t know him would be “Caring”. Justin was always thinking of other people and always helping. His music that he made was also extremely cool and chill. I’m going to miss him dearly. Rest in peace bro, see you up there some day. [/blockquote]

27/05/2011 01:07:00

yeah sorry pizza/plague, got a bluescreen and lost my file I was working on

27/05/2011 01:08:00

Reading all those comments I really would have wanted to meet him. Too sad. Rest in peace, Justin.

dropsys, you had patience to manually guide and teleport me during my countless amount of falls on kz_man_forest back in early 2005; and wait for me to press the finish button. As a stranger to the scene, and being a rookie with a technique consisting of W-strafes, this map was longer and harder than I expected it to be. After lots of struggle I managed to complete the first room, but kept falling in the second. Suddenly I was teleported back to some tree branches; and received help to reach the top. I never had a relationship to dropsys besides exchanging a word or two once a year, but as far as I'm concerned he (and many others) is one of the bottom bricks of the scene. This scene is built with creativity, passion, giving your free time, joy and patience. He had it, and he infected others with it. Many alike. I'm not saying dropsys was unique about this kind of caring, since more or less every one within this community loves to give, but I find the old people quite extraordinary; people before my time. For me - they are something special; people I looked up to. People leave this community all the time (none recalled), but leaving due to death; it just makes me think... :-( For me - dropsys was synonymous with kz_kzfr_tibet. Lovely map. :-)

I also saw him on some kz servers some years ago, he was nice with me. But, can you explain me how he died? I know he was young, so i think it was an accident but i don't know anything about this.

I first met dropsys back in 2005 not long after meeting Sean (gangien). I talked with him a couple of months ago on the PhooGi server and he seemed good and well. It came as quite a shock to me when I was told the news; in fact so much so that my memory is hazy as to who even told me. I'm pretty sure it was Micron. In the years that I've known dropsys, he has been a great friend and we shared many interesting conversations together. Although I have only been active in the KZ community for short spurts for the last couple years, I could always count on dropsys being around when I returned. Miss you man. R.I.P. Justin

27/05/2011 15:39:00

Didn't know you man, but you seem to be very kind and nice guy :( Rest in peace Justin.

I'd like to say a few words. My condolences to his family and friends. You will be missed bro :( I remember way back, early 2005, when we were climbing one of the kz_boulder maps in the PhooGi server and you invited me to PhooGi hehe :) i knew back then that we would develope a good friendship. Will never forget you buddy. Have a blast up there and we will all see you sooner or later. 'Til then my friend <3 Like everyone has said already, dropsys was a great person and always helpful. Thanks for everything [b]Justin 'Dropsys' Swint[/b] lo<3 Rest In Peace

Oh my god! I'm speechless. I remember joining vent with moxx, omilo, gangien, and many others, and he was there as well. Such a positive person. Very fun to talk to. My condolences to his family and friends. May he rest in peace.

27/05/2011 18:00:00

Sad news. but reason of death?

27/05/2011 18:05:00

"You're here for a good time, not a long time..." I couldn't and I didn't want to believe when I heard. A minute ago I was talking to him and the next he's gone ? Even now I'm not recovered from the thought that he is no longer with us. A friendly person with a genuine want and desire to help when you needed it. This is who he was. Rest in peace my friend.

27/05/2011 18:10:00

Rest in peace [*]

27/05/2011 18:11:00

R.I.P bro Didn't change my steam name for about 10 years, now was the time though. Hope your having it good wherever you are.

27/05/2011 18:18:00

Man it's so hard to even fathom. I still don't want to believe that he's gone. I met Dr0psys back in early 2004 when the PhooGi server was Hadoooken's KZ server. He was one of the people who kept me interested in KZ throughout the years. You were an amazing and helpful person. You helped me with techniques that I otherwise wouldn't have even picked up on. From strafing(breaking me of the habit of w-strafes) to bhops and lj/cj's. You were a true friend to everyone know knew you. We had our differences throughout the years, haha you even threatened to ban me from the KZ server on multiple occasions. :D But after everything we became friends and several years later and PSYCHODOGG getting drunk and begging Gangien to let me in, I was asked to join PhooGi. Jumping and watching you jump helped me out more then I could ever put in to words. It was a pleasure to have known you. My heart goes out to everyone, family and friend of Justin. You will be sorely missed man. Keep it gangsta where ever you are after death. Thank you for everything you did for me and everyone else in the KZ community. R.I.P.

27/05/2011 18:22:00

Never heard of this fellow but R.I.P. He seemed to be a great guy, friendly and always willing to help. This might be a rude question (sorry for that) but how did he die? :$

27/05/2011 18:23:00

You had a infectious personality and were truly one of the funniest and deepest guys Ive talked to in my life. Met you in early 2006 and was instantly hooked. You helped me with anything I came to you with, whether it be game or life oriented. The world really lost a true genius. Your passion for kz and music has had a huge impact on all of us and I hate that you wont be able to kick it at my house like we planned for when your band was on tour. All those days you would ban the shit out of zeze up to the huge argument you had with ralth (truly hilarious) are memories that will forever live with me. This map called life has come to a close and you're for sure on the top15, rest in peace my man, pass that blunt to the devil for me!

27/05/2011 20:33:00

Well... Yeah, just wow. Me and dr0psys sure had our differences, but whenever i caught him 1on1, he was completely laid back and chill to talk to. As many have said before me, he was a very deep person, and did have his share of wisdom words to share with the rest of us, thanks for that man. 26 years is just way too early, but I hope that he's kz'ing and making music, wherever he might be now. It was a pleasure dr0psys, although way too short. R.I.P

I can't remember when I first met Justin but it was a long time ago. He was the one who invited me into PhooGi. It was always nice to have a chat whenever we were both on. I'm deeply saddened to hear the news. PhooGi and KZ will never be the same again. RIP

I remember Dropsys from long time ago, probably from around 04-05. I remember when I first started out and how he would just destroy maps and always thought of him as a great kz player. A funny moment long time ago is when he played guitar over the mic in the server and remember listening to him jam in the server for fun. I love playing in PhooGi servers and always tried to beat some of his times for fun. Just a couple months ago I remember talking to him about his music and he always sent me his new songs he made to check them out. When I first heard from a friend I couldn't believe that an old friend had died. Gonna miss talking to ya. R.I.P. Dropsys

R.I.P. Dropsys :(:(

28/05/2011 02:40:00

I haven't gotten to know him very well in these past years, but he surely will be missed. Not more than a couple weeks before he actually passed away, I was checking him a demo and laughing at just another bhop scripter in his server. My heart goes out to all his friends and family. This unbelievable loss will be shadowed by all the good memories he left for you, you can be sure of that. Rest in peace, [flag]us[/flag] [b]dropsys[/b]. My 5 cents.
