If you want to channel your rage and loss, save that motivation for laying a financial foundation down for Sean's kids to go to college. *** This was a broadcast from the_mittani to all-all, replies are not monitored *** Don't forget the rest of us...
Please keep all of us non CFC,GSF & HBC players in the loop on this, a lot of us would like to join you in a fundraiser for his family.
Today we are all goons in spirit.

I think goons should donate all the isk they scammed from people ( including myself ) starting with their great leader mittens.
Wife and kids should be millionaires after these generous donations.
How does it sound ? Would be the first good deed they'd do. And probably the last, unless other goon dies...Fair enough ? |

They have stolen 30 bill from me. If they find a way to convert that isk into real money with or without CCP's help and give it to VR's family, I will be glad. If they don't do it, they're a bunch of hypocrites.
Get to work goons, renaming stations won't help the family. |

CCP (The company that makes the game) Had once done a PLEX drive in order to donate money to help the victims of the Fukushima disaster, This basically lets us players convert the massive quantities of ingame currency we have into a something called a PLEX which is worth approx 15-19 dollars each depending on how you look at it, Or buy the PLEX for cash (as we normally would to sell them in the game) and then rather than use them to pay for a month of game time... donate this PLEX to the cause whereupon CCP would donate the money.
Good proposal, but might need some adjustment.
If you convert ISK to PLEX to support his family, CCP would actually have to pay for it (otherwise, the money someone paid for these PLEX for whatever in-game purpose would stay with CCP, after all). And given how many people might potentially be willing to donate ISK for VR's family, this could amount to some 100k dollars CCP would have to pay from their pockets. I think CCP would feel more comfortable if you could just buy PLEX on your account site and dedicate those to VR's family, so let them manage the donations in the first line, without risking the loss of revenues in a magnitude they might not be able or willing to afford, regardless of how much they appreciate VR's personality and contributions to the game.

It's difficult to quantify how much someone would be missed. Many of us won't be able to talk to his wife or children, or pay our respects physically. We can say nice things and put forth some ISK for his family. He has kids, and college will be expensive. I would definitely donate.
Just give this some time. A proper fundraiser will be set up. I'm sure of it. |

I would donate what I can, certainly.
Even if the money itself doesn't provide much help, the spirit of support is an uplifting factor to those grieving in a time of loss.

You seem to be stupid so I'll try to use less words :
It's about donations here. I made my "donation". Goons' turn now. Nothing to do with the game or RL. No mixing. I've done my part of the job. Got the idea or I just lost a bunch of seconds from my precious life ? |

No. We owe them nothing. We owe him nothing. May be perceived as harsh, but it's true. If people want to donate to make themselves feel better then that's an individual choice, but don't play the debt/guilt card.
Agreed. I never donate to anything... |

I would be willing to donate without it having to be purchased through PLEX or through PLEX... Either way...yes. I would donate. It may just be money to some but it could be what pays for a funeral or pays for the bills while his family is grieving. Showing support for our fellow gamers regardless of who they are or what they play is a good thing.

Before getting a plex piling up, Make a plan for a noble gesture we as EVE community could do for him. Rfiter statue, a tree, a song whatever? Than let see how much that gesture would cost and than we can proceed to piling up some cash. |

Edit: was responding to some of the more tacky and offensive posts, which have now been edited.
My two cents would entail not holding a PLEX drive - folks that actually knew VR as more than just a video game avatar are setting up a memorial fund, so if you feel the need to express yourself with money, that would undoubtedly be the best route.
Too often people use the death of others as a chance to express themselves, rather than thinking about the family (I've experienced and been annoyed by this in the not-too-distant past). One memorial fund sponsored by SA is more than enough IMO. |

If nothing else, this attempted PLEX drive has driven the price of PLEX up %15-20 in the last few hours. People are most definitely profiting from this tragedy, CCP included, so I guess his family should too. |

I would VERY much like to be able to donate a few plex towards a fund for Vile Rat's family.
I never knew him, I'm probably exactly the sort of player that he'd probably have love to have ganked, but Eve is a game after all, and I hate to think of any fellow Eve player being killed in real life, especially in such needless and barbaric circumstances as the savages that did this.
Money can't bring him back, but it can help his remaining family financially. A strong show of support from the Eve and SA communities I hope will bring comfort to his family, it's the very least that we can do to try and cushion the loss and suffering that they will experience.
If any reputable goonswarm representative would like to email me in game I would very much like to make a donation please. All I ask that given it's a donation and the nature of the cause please let it go where it's intended, to Vile Rat's family, and lay off the scams on this one please.
Surely CCP must be able to make this official, or if not them somehow the Goon hive mind must be able to turn ISK back into $ for this ? |

It would be cool if GOONS renamed one of their main outposts "Sean Smith Memorial Station" or something like that.
maybe CCP could contribute by locking the name so it could never be changed. |

I don't think CCP should get involved in this officially, but I would like to see something like this being done by goons to support Vile's family and to show that the people, who he spent much of his time with over the last years, truly care about this loss.
CCP HAS to get involved if its a PLEX drive (otherwise it is RMT).
Collecting money directly can be done, obviously (and should be), and sth. like that will apparently be organized by SA guys via www.youcaring.com. |

I would donate too though Ill probably donate to the CFC fund instead as I have more cash than isk. Honestly I dont think CCP will do a plex drive.
They haven't even put anything up on the site. I mean they do those stupid community spotlights all the time you'd think they'd care enough to put up a little R.I.P. on the community site. |
