Robot P-Bot Found Dead in Newgrounds Office

Philadelphia, PA -- Known for automated maintenance on the Flash Portal on the smash hit website Newgrounds.com, the 9-year-old P-Bot has been pronounced dead today. P-Bot's body was found dead slouched over in his IKEA office chair at the Newgrounds office in Philadelphia, PA.

He was declared dead at the scene. His cause of death has yet to be discovered.

P-Bot was in the middle of performing routine automated robotic tasks involving removing blammed submissions from the Newgrounds Flash Portal. His tragic death has shocked thousands of Newgrounds fans and fans of P-Bot himself.

Site owner Tom Fulp refused to comment on the loss of his creation.

This is a tragedy. P-Bot committed to blamming Portal submissions, and now he dies. So young, too.

Rest In Peace, P-Bot.

You are in my heart.

Nonsense! Do not spread false rumors! The cause of death has yet to be found.

Didn't stop people when he was alive, what makes you think it'll be any different now?
