Some friends leave footprints,
some leave memories behind,
but legends like you, Mavdoc,
leave whole worlds in our minds.
when zOMG brought us together,
you had a way of making strangers friends,
and somehow making every gathering better.
You called them “dev meats,”
and somehow that made them even more grand.
You welcomed every newcomer
with an open heart and an open hand.
You'd talk about food for what felt like forever,
and somehow those talks were never dull.
A little laughter, a little chaos,
and suddenly everyone's cup was full.
You could find someone who was hurting
and somehow make them smile.
You had that rare kind of kindness
that could make a hard day worthwhile.
And then came the avatars
everyone growing huge and tall,
while you'd work your magic
and make mine tiny after all.
I'd ask, and you'd listen,
because that's just who you were.
A little bit mischievous,
a little bit ridiculous,
and always one of the good ones.
You weren't just a Gaian.
You weren't just someone from a dev meet.
You were a friend.
A genuinely awesome person
who made the world around you feel a little less lonely.
A grand master of the kind.
The sort of friend you don't truly lose,
because you never leave them behind.
You live in the memories,
in the laughter,
in the old places we still remember,
in every “dev meat” joke
that makes someone smile years later.
So rest well, my friend.
Rest peacefully beyond the screen.
May whatever world waits beyond this one
be brighter than anything we've seen.
And someday, when our paths cross again,
somewhere beyond this earthly place,
I'll find you waiting at another dev meat
with that familiar smile upon your face.
We'll sit down and catch up
like no time ever passed.
I'll tell you everything you missed,
and we'll laugh about the past.
I'll tell you about the people,
the memories, the years,
the adventures that came after,
and all the laughter through the tears.
And maybe you'll make everyone's avatar huge again…
while I ask you to make mine tiny.
Some things, after all,
should never change.
Until that day, Mavdoc,
thank you for being you.
Thank you for the laughter.
Thank you for the welcome.
Thank you for the food talks.
Thank you for the memories.
Thank you for making a little corner of Gaia
feel like home.
From one Gaian friend
to another
Rest well, legend.
We'll meet again someday
in the Great Gaia beyond the stars,
at the greatest ZOMG afterlife dev meat
ever held.
We didn't get the chance to get to know each other much, but your kindness and your warm welcome when I started zOMG is something I will always remember.
I will always appreciate being invited to the dev meats, and how incredible the vibes were between everyone the few times I was able to be there. Your energy will always be here in gaia, and every so often I find myself thinking of you and wishing I could have become a closer friend to you.
Best of wishes wherever you find yourself now that you're gone from the physical, you're loved and missed by many it seems.
Sweetest Dreams
I really miss you Mavvy I wanted to come tell you that you were right life has gotten better.. I still wish you were here to laugh with me though. There are not enough words in the dictionary to adagiatelo tell you how much you meant to all of us not just me.. thinking of you today heart
Hello, Mavdoc. I know you're no longer around, but I will still leave a message here.
I didn't know that you were gone since last year, until I was informed by an old friend. I ended up coming back to zOMG just to see the Dev Meat and it was in fact, different without you around.
Things happened here and there, I'm now diagnosed with autism and I'm getting older for sure, haha.
But I have vowed to be present on every Dev Meat starting from today. I just have to put a reminder somewhere.
I never knew you personally mavdoc and I haven't met you, but you've seem to bring a lot of joy to the community so I want to pay respect for you to have gathered such beautiful art and community, thank you rest in peace and fly high crying
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May his soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen
Pray also for us all here still trying to make it. Thanks, miss ya
see ya in heaven
You came across my mind just now, however I feel like someone misses you which made me crave our time again.
RIP, my friend, a thought of you came to me and the memories just flew in like it never left me. heart
Keep seeing your status, my hope soar before immediately falling into the depth of hell. Worth it, never deleting you, never forgetting you. Miss you Mavdoc
Today we had Meats on AviChat, the site was down(still) and we had to improvise (AviMeats)
I wonder what you would have done in this sort of situation, what your thoughts would be..
I'm glad that we came together to make it work, but feels more home when we are in zOMG and I cant wait until zOMG is fixed crying
As always, I miss you Mav emotion_hug
I never got to say goodbye… I remember all the fun we had at those dev meats… and now I find out your gone… I wish I hadn5 taken those for granted… I wish I had spent more time at them…
I miss you…
