I knew nobody'd get the reference, so the story goes a bit like this:
A number of years ago, a bunch of people on FYAD were trolling Wikipedia, and had taken notice of a particularly pedantic user named "Cumulus Clouds". A bunch of users, most notably Anne Frank Fanfic, took it upon themselves to troll and harass him (calling him a "sperg" and such) to a degree that even a few others thought was excessive. Cumulus Clouds turned out to be a high school student, and committed suicide some time later. As the situation unraveled, it looked more and more like they had (wittingly or unwittingly) pushed an already vulnerable and unstable kid into killing himself. There was even (mod-approved) talk of crashing his funeral.
Like everything genuinely bad that's happened at Something Awful, the story has been supressed only to be repeated and distorted by a bazillion dumbshits, mostly from shitty racist SA offshoots with an axe to grind like Rhizzone and My Posting Career. Because of that, there's a lot of details to the story that I just don't have or are probably wrong. The kid's parents apparently do have the most accurate picture of what happened, and may or may not be weighing their options.
Anyway, as of now bringing up the situation on SA will at minimum put you on the radar and at most get you banned and your post edited depending on who sees the post and how much of a handle you've got on the sequence of events. Anne Frank Fanfic and the moderator that talked about the funeral crashing are pretty much actively being protected at this point.
