you all call yourself friends of Nick yet you berate and criticize him all the time
you do nothing but spit insults at the guy and demand he make something of himself. all the while he is obviously pleading for help because he thinks of you all as m8s but you just turn your back on him. if you're going to insult him and clearly be helpful (or at least offer some constructive, caring advice) than you should clearly be calling yourselves his friends or guildmates.
See what you might clearly understand (since most of what I've personally witnessed occurred on vent, and you're never on vent) is that multiple methods have been used to approach Nick,
INCLUDING the one you proposed. None of them have proven to be effective. If you've ever been around different kids of people, then you should have noticed that constantly being around someone negative gets, at first, demoralizing and eventually just plain frustrating. Eventually, people grow tired of hearing the same bullshit overrrrr and oveeeeeer and over again. So eventually, you give up on trying to help the depressed and simply stop listening to their rant or push them away from your entourage.
