As long as the ISD continue to refrain from emotive moderation I think we're all in agreement.

I like this idea. It reinforces that spark of truth in the concept that "EVE is Real."

EVE is a combination of real and imaginary. We do a lot for the imaginary side. Occasionally we do things for the real side as well. This seems like such an occasion.

Ok, everyone Tweet this Thread at CCP and get them to notice it.

I've gone ahead and created a thread internally as well so that this is brought directly to developer attention. Thanks for the great suggestion, Rixx!

Why so much special treatment?
Will we all receive this?

Jim - that's kind of the point to this idea.

Yes Jim, the idea is to create a memorial with the names of all confirmed deceased EVE members, not just the popular ones. Although I wonder how exactly CCP would go about determining the names of people who quit because they died vs just quitting. Maybe it would be best not to actually list names but make it a general memorial.

You know any of the rest of us won't, the only reason this is getting so much attention is 1) It's GOONS, 2) how many Goon members are also dev's or isd's I bet I can name a few coughs*CCP Soundwave*coughs. If it was any run of the mill subscriber like myself i would be wrote of as just "stopped" playing.

But let something happen to a goon it makes national media just like their in-game destructive campaigns "burn jita" for example.
Goons are destructive to EVE and the EVE Community, see you in EC-P8R!!

Sounds like a good idea to me ! Though the black hole devouring star sounds good too :).

The graphic over on my blog is supposed to represent a black hole devouring a star, hence the "ring of fire" surrounding it. Just fyi. Sorry, couldn't post graphics with the post here.

Hopefully making it a general memorial to all who have passed on would remove that kind of harassment from the equation.

Sadly i believe a memorial is needed, RIP to all of the capsuleers that have passed on.

I support the Ring of Fire memorial. There should be a location overlooking the memorial where you can read the names of the fallen and their contribution to New Eden. It could function like Site One in Eram with structures that transfer documents to your ship when you approach. As pilots are memorialized new structures could be added that tell their story.

A shooting sport I participate in has a publication where, when competitors die (usually of old age), they list their name in a section marked "Left the range".


it's not a new idea. But I suppose some kind of "thing" that lists players who are truly dead, that is, the account owner has passed on, is not going to break the game and cause armies of darkness to march over the face of the earth.


I think it should be a gated free-for-all PVP zone in Jita with a monument that not only shoots at ships with it's own guns, but pods you too if you get too close.


To think that's too harsh is to forget what this game was all about (killing each other).
