I petitioned for a monument in his memory but that got locked apparently because it is too similar to this request. Either way...monument, system name change or both. I am all for it. He deserves to be remembered. He did a lot to shape EVE.

It's poetic and wouldn't affect gameplay in any real way. The EVE gate is the most tangible "connection" between the EVE universe and our own - the point where our universe got severed from the game universe. I like the thought of memorializing anyone who played EVE by giving them a virtual resting place just on the far side of the EVE gate - as if, in death, a small part of them passed on, and made it into the EVE universe itself.
I like the way you said this. Its a good idea.

If goons want to make an in-game remembrance of one of their dead comrades let them give his toon a spanking medal, a glorious title or rename all their stations in his memory. Even rename all their ships in his memory for the rest of the game's existence.
Goons wanting special care taken for the passing of one of their own isn't really all that fitting; goons haven't exactly been overly sympathetic with other players rl strife and tragedy in the past.
Why are you making this about Goonswarm? There are plenty of people (myself included) that dislike and despise Goonswarm for what they are in EVE...this has nothing to do with that. This has to do with the passing of a man who did great things for EVE regardless of the alliance he was involved with. The request made by the OP in this thread has evolved at this point to being more than just a request for a monument of one man but a monument to all of EVE pod pilots that have passed.

How about you guys treat all death with respect and don't harrass those grieving.
Again...this has nothing to do with "The Mittani's" fiasco at FanFest. Why even bring that into this? Besides...that issue has long since been resolved. He recieved his punishment and life goes on. He misspoke and this is about a valuable member of the EVE community and the CSM for several years who actually passed away.
Perspective people!

If you don't want to look at it then you don't have to. There will be no harm to those that don't want a monument.

This crap is getting out of hand.
