[aquanuke]

I just heard from Matthew's mother that he passed away a few weeks ago.

Although I did not know him personally he has been apart of this community for a number of years and im sure he will be greatly missed.

Rest in peace.

Really sad news...another loss to acorn and the domain community!

Thats 2 from the forum. Chris is it worth asking his mum if she wants a valuation of his domains/sites? to get her some money for them rather than they drop? i know my missus wouldnt have a clue.

Shocking news, how sad. Certain names in this game are just 'there' if you know what I mean, and his was one.

The thought of picking up his domain names on the drop seems wrong somehow. A auction sounds a smashing idea, if organised well.

Matt Warne ~ Devolution
Founder of Spiritual Forums
11th December 1980 ~ 6th November 2009
Matt, (devolution) created this forum in February 2006, his dream was to create a large online spiritual community, a place where people could meet and discuss all things spiritual, a sanctuary for people of similar interests to learn and grow together in a harmonious setting and free of charge. He achieved that dream, and we, his loved ones, friends and helpers, aim to keep that dream alive in his memory


About Devolution - Attention all members please read!! - News & Announcements - Spiritual Forums

It is with a very sad heart that I pass this news on, and I really am gutted, and not sure of what to fully say here.

Our good friend Matt Warne, better known to us as Devolution. Has passed away last week.

This was passed on to me from his girlfriend.

Matt died of an embolism in his heart...It was likely on Monday the 9th, but we didn' find out until Friday the 13th. It was very sudden, I am told.

If you ever got to know Matt he was a nice guy. He was a truly lovely man he was, such a gentle soul, deeply spiritual, with a mischeivous side, who created this place for people on the spiritual path to help them and give them a place to discuss their interests.

This site was started 3-4 years ago, and has quickly grown to being one of the largest spiritual forums on the net. With over 11,000 members.

So please keep Matt's family, friends, and loved ones in your prayers and thoughts.

I will leave this thread open for anyone who wants to leave a message.


This was Matt's Website.
