Yes, it was the guy's responsibility for taking his own life. I don't think the assholes in the chatroom should take on any liablility for what happened other than their own guilt for egging on a guy who hung himself in front of them. That is, if they are familiar with the concept of guilt.
The downside, in my opinion though, is that this guy is dead and the assholes who egged him on and those like them are still here to improve the quality of
my life with their assholeness.
