I just heard that a Scratcher named iNetMaster apparently passed away. But people claim:
1. He was a decent programmer
2. He lived in Japan
BUT
1. He has no projects
2. His profile says he lives in Bangladesh
What's going on?

Back when Miscellaneous was around, a Scratcher named iNetmaster posted a topic saying he was dying but didn't really have the specifics. A few days later (after many Scratchers included him in their signatures, projects and topics remembering him) another Scratched claimed tat they knew iNetmaster and that he was not dead, rather he was just playing a joke on the community. We never really found out whether he did die or if it was just a joke, but the Scratch Team quickly closed topics regarding iNetmaster in order to not cause confusion or hurt feelings.
Some Scratcher's believe he did die, while other believe it was just a joke and were mad at him for fooling Scratch. I'm sure this was one of the determining factors in the Scratch Team/Moderators' discussion on whether to close miscellaneous.
And that user page you mention is a bit deceiving, the real user page is here.

You never really can know if he's alive or not. It could be a joke or maybe not.

That account you saw was an imposter. The real account is -iNetMaster- and the one you saw is iNetMaster.

Thanks, everyone!

Closed by request of the topic owner.
Topics about individuals are not encouraged by the way. They come across as kind of gossipy - and so much on the internet is unverifiable.
