There was a video on 5SSG earlier but it's gone. To keep short, someone started stalking Derek and found out all his personal info and threatened Derek with it to get him remove himself. He basically hated Derek and was jealous of him. So Derek is no more, unfortunately.

If you have any messages you can visit the 5SSG channel @ http://www.youtube.com/5sortastraightguys

They'll forward your messages to Derek. It's a shame assholes like that person runaround this world.

Grof142007 · 23rd Apr 2009, 03:41 AM

Fashionable360 was his YT channel people SPAM HIS CHANNEL so much i guess 5ssg has take down the video considering this matter

I heard about this.

I though it was silly.

Kenko · 23rd Apr 2009, 06:05 AM

Wow, too bad there's idiots that ruin things for everyone. And I'm surprised at all the drama surrounding it.

SPAMing someone's decoy youtube account probably won't accomplish much.

Mmmm, have I missed something here?

I have no clue what's going on...

Lychee · 23rd Apr 2009, 06:21 AM

Daniel · 23rd Apr 2009, 06:58 AM

Someone that made videos on YouTube. That's about all I know, I was subscribed to his channel.

Thanks James.

Derek is the Youtube user that made the video posted in this thread (AFAIK he isn't an EC member):
Thinking about Suicide? Please watch this video.

He is a gay highschool student that blogged about the trials and tribulations of being a gay highschool student with a non-accepting parents.

All his videos were removed and his channel closed not too long ago, leaving many subscribers confused / worried.

riddlerno1 · 23rd Apr 2009, 09:12 AM

He did make some very good vids. A very honest soul. I saw his vid on coming out which was extremely helpful to me.

Just Adam · 23rd Apr 2009, 09:14 AM
