Sharing your memories of Hollopoint

[Katelin]

Swords, today we came together with our secret world community to share our grief, to show our love and to be there for one another.

The loss we all feel in the cabal, echoes throughout our community.

Despite not wanting to make a fuss - Mark impacted all of us. We are going to miss you, and we are not going to forget you.

Please share your memories here, whether it is about his presence, his artwork, the mountain of amazon boxes we feared were going to bury him in his appointment in the spring ... share the joy you shared with him.

If you want to share your memories more openly than here on our 9S forum, you can also respond to the thread in the Secret World Forum: https://forums.funcom.com/t/hollopoint-farewell/171510

I just finished going through his "best of Hollo" thread, again.
He managed to make so many pictures after my last "great work" comment and he started to become insanely good. It's a joy to see how far he managed to develop.

But my main memories of him is from being pals in game. Saying 'hello' when logging in has always been important to me in games like this and to me it seems like him and me shared that opinion.
I can't remember how many times I've chatted with him ingame.
I'm also a bit shocked that I managed to drop in when there was a meeting to honor him in Agartha. It feels almost as it was meant to be. He *so* deserved this attention. I'm glad I stumbled in to be part of saluting him.
An amazing guy I will remember as long as I live.

I discovered this cabal thanks to Hollo and the community about one year ago, because of all the activities and events that were put together! I know many of you have played together and have been friends for many years now.


I would like to offer my sincerest condolences to everyone

I didn't know him very well, but he was a great guy, he was always helpful and cheerful, he hosted many events for the community, he was one of the people who made this game and community great, so sad to hear him gone. I dont really remember doing anything with him sadly, or rather i forgot.

Sam515 and Mayday here, stepping in for a brief salute to an online friend that will be much missed. Although I didn't know Hollo well, he was one of the most memorable online friends I've had the pleasure of meeting. When ever there was an event in game for Nine Swords, or The Secret World, you'd find Hollo there. And a few days later, screenshots. His artwork usually preempted the event itself. His visage will be missed. *Big Wave* *Salute* from both of us.

*wipes away a tear*

I managed to snag a screenshot of the system message put out by Funcom for Hollo. I'd shared it to the Funcom forums, but putting it here too for the Swords. <3

The first in-game memory that comes to me is Hollo helping me do the scenarios in the Sunken Library on Sundays. If I recall, the scenarios were new at the time, and I had no idea what I was doing.

I remember thinking, 'this guy is the most patient person I've ever met!'

We got talking about his artwork, and I was blown away when I saw it. I realised then that he wasn't just friendly and very patient, but modest about his talent, too.
