Assembly Hall

No.

The intent for this is to create a single memorial commemorating the death of a man who fought not only for his beloved internet spaceships, but also attempted to foster friendship through diplomacy in real life. Sure, people die all the time. But what makes this man any different and more important than other players?

He died in a senseless attack, while trying to make the world a better place.

Maybe I'm being insensitive, but I see no reason to erect a memorial for random people who have done nothing more than play this game and then passed on. Sean Smith is a huge exception, because of the way he lived, and the way he died.

1 monument
in jita
in the description the names of all the people who passed and maybe the dates?
the monument never Disappears but simply gets updated when relevant.

+1 as this is a sandbox we create the lore and now Vile Rat has become a legend . Please help us honor him .

+1 for VFK... also, the inscription should say "Shoot blues -> Tell Vile Rat"

Failing a monument, a moments silence at fanfest seems appropriate.

+1 i think this is a great idea and i know alot of people that knew him in and out of game would love for him to forever live on in this way

Then that should show that you should go out and do something with your life. Sean lived a life full of self-sacrifice. He was an Air Force veteran. He was a veteran in the state department. In both capacities that lasted over ten years of his life, he worked to improve life for people all over the globe.

He is more important than the thirty-year-old living in mommy's basement. He is more important than the person who is living his life thinking of only of himself.

If you want to set up a memorial to all he people who play this game and have passed away, then fine. BUT THIS IS NOT FOR THEM. This is a petition to set up a memorial specifically for someone who served a life as a public servant, who put the needs of others before himself. This is for someone who wanted to make the world a better place, and in so doing was killed by extremists who want to do the exact opposite.

You're damn right he's more important than 99% of the people who play this game. He did something with his life. He came home and did all of that in-game. But yet you'll pull this BS of "it'll cause envy amongst the players!" Good. Get off your lazy ass and do something meaningful.

Stop it, now, with all these, "We need to have a memorial to commemorate all the people who have died who play this game!" You are not noteworthy. This man was, and should have our respect.
