I’ll spare you all the details because it’s a touchy subject and it doesn’t feel right that it’s me who knows. Unfortunately, Joom is no longer with us. If I get any news, I’ll let you know. But for now I think we should let the matter rest. Let’s let the family and his loved ones process it and let’s mourn him as a community.”

• A user on twitter says: “Once someone asked Joom how to climb the leaderboard. He explained that if you want to achieve something and learn something, you have to be happy with your life. Somehow that inspired me to improve my own life and that changed everything.”
• A Cloud 9 coach says (via twitter): “I can not believe it. i’m so sad right now I’ve kept in touch with Joom over the years to keep up to date. He was such a good person over the 6 years I knew him. He has never behaved differently towards me and I will really miss him. Rest in peace man.”
