Topic Subject: Rageofempires passes away
posted 10-26-15 06:36 PM CT (US)   
Hello. This is Mohan's father. I think you might know him as Rageofempires, but I'm not quite certain. Well, I knew he was on this website once, so I was checking out the website to find out a place where I can inform others about this terrible event.

My amazing son, Mohan, has passed away.

He had a cerebrovascular disease. Also known as a stroke. One day when I was coming home from work, I was informed by cell phone that he was in the hospital. If I had only known what was to come. Sometimes I feel like I did a bad job raising him, but it's nobody's fault. Mohan never told me about any symptoms, and as of 10/21/2015, a beloved friend of you all, and my great son, has passed.

We moved to America around 2001, but Mohan actually stayed in India to attend a military school, and stayed in India to be taken care of by a close friend of mine, who offered to provide basic needs for Mohan. Almost like a stepfather, I suppose. He came to America in 2013, when we were eager to see him. In India, I didn't know he had been exposed to technology, and he talked to me about a new game known as Age of Empires. Mohan showed me a lot, and grew a huge addiction towards this game, almost as he had played it every second of the day.

For his 8th birthday in 2004, we sent him a package of the game, which he requested himself, and we (my wife and I) had no idea what was happening. My friend was wealthy and had a computer, a Windows XP. Mohan played on it every day after classes. One day he skipped school and wasted all day (on a day of an exam) playing this game. But I knew he loved history, and world history was his suit.

I wanted to keep it short but I keep having memories, but at last I will join him in heaven. He was too young to pass.

Rest in peace, Mohan. I am a very proud father.

Ouch.

I didn't know him personally myself, having just joined this community not too long ago, but this is the type of thing that shouldn't happen to anyone, especially one as young as your son was.

You have my condolences. May he rest in peace.

I may not reply to this post for a while. But I was searching through this website to find something. I searched posts by Rageofempires so I could see what Mohan had been up to, and I see a lot of posts named Special Topics. I can only wonder what has happened in them. I am not too computer savvy though. If anyone can shed some light on this, that would be greatly appreciated

Not a problem.

I do remember him posting a few times, but I cannot remember what they were about. I'll see if I can find them...

Whoa. An unexpected turn of events.

My condolences, mister. May your son rest in peace.

This is really sad to hear. May he rest in peace, my condolences you have my support.

I have found these three posts from him in the general and strategy discussion forum if that can help.

On behalf of all the staff I would like to offer sincerest condolences for your loss. You have my sympathies, as I personally know how it feels to attend the funeral of a loved one who died so young.

Mohan's topics were rather special, because he always carried this aura of enthusiasm. His character will live long in our memories.

At Halloween it's tradition that we change the site layout to some kind of parody, though as far as I'm aware there were no plans for this year. If you'd approve, I could try to change the site banner to a memorial.

My condolences. I don't pretend to know Rageofempires at all, but it is always tragic when someone who shared in this unique community is taken away. Best wishes in this hard time.

Indeed.

Well, I did a search and I found this thread that Rageofempires started. Though initially a quiz thread, it was in this thread that a forummer named CarolKarine made a suggestion to put up a census thread (although I believe he also mentioned it in the at-the-time-ongoing Splash Splash, as well), and then posted it later that day. And I bring this up because it was in this very same thread that I made my very first post - 6 months to the day, in fact.

So, indirectly anyways, your son was the reason I signed up for this forum when I did.

I'm sorry to hear that I liked him and his threads. they/he was funny.

@elder terrier - thanks for reminding me about that thread. I'll added it to Splash Splash: The Archives

I revisited this post and I must say, I greatly appreciate your support and wishes. It helps me get through these tough times. Sometimes I felt like I never knew my son. I should've made him move to America with us so we would bond more. But it's alright. At Popeychops, it would be sweet idea for memorial theme, but it's alright if it doesn't happen. Otherwise, I approve of it. To many others, I might visit this more and maybe get into some AOE myself, since I have some absence from work due to this obstreperous event. I must thank you all, and I hope you all achieve your dreams with minimum sorrow, and have an amazing, prosperous life. It brings me to tears when I post this on the laptop my very own son touched only a few days before his passing. If only he could still be here.

My condolences, good sir. Your son was an amazing forumer.

My condolences. I can't say I knew your son particularly well, but it's still sad to see him pass away, and at such a young age.

My condolences. I've always seen your son in some way integral to the forum, and his passing is major blow to the Town's Crier, I think.

My condolences to you and your family. I didn't know Mohan personally, but I'm saddened to hear that he passed away at such a young age.
