Heartfelt and solid words, Seleene, CSM, CCP and fellow players. RIP Sean 'Vile Rat' Smith; one of the brightest and most unique lights in New Eden has gone out, never to shine again. A grave and terrible loss.

Our thoughts are with your family, friends and fleetmates.

I am in awe of the support shown through EVE for this tragic death.

I cannot think of a better community and sub-culture to be a part of, this is truly amazing.

RIP Vile Rat.

My heart goes out to your family and friends. I did not know you, but your real life family and friends and the EVE family feels a huge, un-replaceable void by your absence.

Thank you for your service to your Country, and to this Community.

Very moving blog, perhaps the most emotional story with such a tragic outcome I have ever read on these forums. I am completely beside myself right now. Senseless horror, senseless loss.

The one redeeming feature, the one good thing I can take from this is our reaction as a community. We have in a small way shown the rest of the world that we care. We have shown that we remember. And I hope we show that we will never forget this.

What Sean brought to this game is beyond compare. What Sean did for this community is evidenced in these forums and the members responses. As a gamer, he was great. As a tactician, he was great. And as a person, he was great.

RIP Sean 'Vile Rat' Smith

RIP Vile Rat -

CNN Identifies him in the following article, and includes a photo of him. Refers to him being an online gamer.
http://www.cnn.com/2012/09/14/us/benghazi-victims/index.html?hpt=hp_t1

They quote the Mittani as well in the article.

Sorry if somebody already posted this, my phone is acting up and I'm using it to browse. Having problems navigating the forums for some reason.

RIP VR


Can we start a plex donation or something to send to his family?


I was going to suggest the same thing, come on CCP, run a "vile plex" drive, with half / all of the proceeds going to Seans family, i would be happy to trade in a plex or two (or purchase a few if thats the way you ran it) and i reckon tonnes more would be too.

R.I.P VR, while i had never met you, as others have said, you were one of us.
