[2020] Looking for someone

I know this is an usual request but im hoping someone can help with this. I think my friend has taken their own life, they've been struggling with depression for awhile now and im trying to find someone who knows them as well. All i know is their real name is Leon, they play OSRS and are a HCIM and their discord ID is Neru. If anyone knows them or if your reading this leon please DM me ;w;

This is a genuine thread please help and im sorry for going against the rules ><

Update: Thank you all for the support i honestly didnt expect to get this much traction, just to clarify the person im looking for is a friend of the person whom im concerned about. I'm trying to find other people who know them to find out if they're okay >< sorry for the confusion and thank you all again. I'll update again if i find anything out. They just sent me a "By the time you read this" email which is why im scrambling to find out if they're okay.

Hey u/xSunnymist, we know that you're really concerned about your friend. Like a lot of others in this thread have said, we're really proactive in situations where we think there's a threat to life. The well-being and safety of our players is a priority of our Support team.

I strongly suggest that you contact your local law enforcement agency (who will have international links) or their local law enforcement agency (if you happen to know it). One key piece of information you have access to is their email address. It'll be really valuable in helping find them. That, along with their real name and any approximation of their geographical location, should be passed to law enforcement.

If you have their full Discord ID then I'd encourage you to contact Discord who might be able to better identify their location and escalate the situation to the authorities.

The information in the thread isn't enough for us to identify a player, so I'd also welcome you privately passing me their email address. It might be that we're able to locate an RS account using it. If we find an account, and we identify there might be a threat to life then we'll also escalate the situation. For privacy reasons we shouldn't share any information about your friend's identity with you.

I just want to reiterate that the priority should be contacting the police. Without evidence or a means to identify the player, neither us or Discord will be able to act. The police should be the first port of call, particularly if you think it's time critical.
