Its wtih a heavy heart and through the tears that i have to tell you that my best friend Josh better known to you guys as Hush Zsaz or CthulhuJones passed away last night. He was the best friend i could have asked for, we just kicked it Saturday night for the fights and all was good. I just want you guys to know how much he truly loved this site and all of you guys.

Oh ****.....I can't believe this. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Cthulhu was one of my best friends on this site. We've had many discussions about MMA, football and life on Twitter. I can't believe he's gone. 

He will be dearly missed... Rest in peace.

So sorry for your loss, he had a personality on the forum that not many men would ever duplicate, controversial or not, he always had a strong opinion on what ever subject matter there was. RIP Cthulu

Wow this is a nightmare , cant believe i just woke up to read this . Dontbescared im sorry to hear about your loss . I know you guys were very close cant imagine what youre going through . I seriously cant stop crying right now , cthulu was a great caring guy , may not have came across that way to some on here but after getting to know him trough emails and other sites i learned that he was a super nice guy , really enjoyed just shootin the **** with him about hockey , for an american that man knew his hockey . Im even gonna miss him picking on me for being bald he would always bring it up to the point it got annoying but now knowing he wont pick on me anymore is the worst as weird as that sounds . Im sorry if i misspelled a ton of stuff . I been crying this whole time so everything is blurry . RIP Josh , Zsasz, Cthuhlu ill never forget you man .

He was brash and quite honestly annoyed me pretty often but when he dialed it back a bit he was enjoyable to talk to. He was one of the first people from this site that I really got to know beyond MMA talk. He was one of the first regulars in the IRC channel and even up until now still popped in every once in awhile.

This is unfortunate news to hear, another one of the most active and passionate members of this community has passed on. RIP

I'm sorry to hear that DontBeScaredHomie What the **** happend? He was like a young dude no?

Well anyways, not gonna pretend I liked him, mostly because of the "racism". What I will say tho is that he was a funny ************. Witty as they come, he put time, effort and and a creativity into his post that often made me think the bigotry is just a shtick to troll. He was a good debater as well. For those things alone I can honestly say I might even miss him. Even if he was on the wrong side of things.

Now if someone is offended by my post let me say this about CthulhuJones (the creature of the deathpool game here on Tapology btw.) I didn't know him very well but what I certainly know is that he rather would have read the macabre truth than a fake "PC" like post with nothing but lies in it.

So Rest in peace old fiend

Damn, that sucks. He said some messed up stuff but was an entertaining contributor. This will go next to Burgess in the Tap Memorial HOF.

I thought this was a joke thread because of how unexpected this is, but the more I read the comments, I knew it was true, what a truly dark day for our site. He was just posting a few days ago and now he's gone, such is life huh? Here today, gone tomorrow. How did he pass? How old was he? It must have either been sudden or he knew the end was near? We had quite a few differences the past 4-5 years, but I like having diverse opinions here, I like that I was never silenced even though things got very heated between him and I and some of you here. 

Though some of you didn't or still don't like him or I, Cthulhu (Josh) reminds me of myself in some ways as one of the aberrant, freethinking personalities and antagonists here on tap like myself. I might have been his mortal enemy at times, but in the end it's all good and I'm glad we made peace. Just recently in the past month or two we squashed everything and realized we had more in common than we thought but just had some strong disagreements on certain things, which I like in a person. It's too bad we couldn't discuss more, one of the truly big persona's here is gone, I'm sure he will be missed.
