Somtimes EVE gives the impression that we all are immortal because we mainly deal with the characters of the game. Reading that DarkElf died in reallife at a age of 27 - where you normally have your best time in life IMO - is very shocking. At this moment EVE is not only a game to me.

How do you die in the shower at 26 anyways? lol his death is comical, I dont know what you guys imagine but in my head I see a very comical death lol, and imagine how they found him lol! laying in the shower, water still running. lol, imagine what he must of been doing to himself, I bet he had a heart attack :P Too much sitting around posting on forums, not enough exercise.
Heart failure? He had a heart attack lol, he was out of shape and probably doing the dirty deed with his 5 finger friend rosey HAHAHAHAHAHA

Id like to take this time to point out Skoot is not with Freefall securities anymore.
Skoot, youve always been an *******, and now you got the whole eve comunity that posted here ready to kill you. Dont think even Empire will be safe for you. This is not the way you should ever treat the dead. There are sometimes things that happen its called life. and it can come at you fast. perhaps one day skoot you will grow up, when someone you care about dies suddenly, if you even have the maturity to care about someone. I dont know DE, but hearing about someone's death is never good (well if there innocent).
Its not how old a character is, but how the caracter can use the skills they already got. |

It's better to ignore that attention *****. Maybe Skoot's mommy and daddy didn't love him enough when he was a child. Or even now for that matter. I'll let mommy know you need attention.
I've never had anything short of utmost respect for VETO and it's members, and it's sad to hear someone dying at so young. I'm only 23 myself (n00b at life, I know ) and I'm fortunate enough to say that I haven't lost a friend at such a tragically young age. I wish nothing but the very best for VETO, and send my heartfelt condolences.
Rest in peace, DE.

To DE: You always gave constructive posts on the forums when everyone else flamed. You knew your stuff and made eve a better place. I along with those who have posted here will miss you.
To the Devs: Please leave his character in the game so that he can always remain most wanted. He was one of the best pirates I know, and it would be an honor to tell noobs about him when they ask why he has such a high bounty.
To those who disrespect his death: you've all been set -10.0. See you ingame. _________ Gallente FTW |

To all the friends of DE that are here and can read me, i know how you feel, it is not right to see someone close to you leave this world so young.
To all the immature people that shows lack of respect toward this tragic event, it is beyond words what I think of you. I hope the guys in charge will ban you both from here and from the game, you dont deserve to be part of the community.
All those who care should go in the video section and see the tribute Verone did for his friend.
Fly safe DE

Edited by: Dimitry Kalashnikov on 21/09/2007 04:51:06 Firstly as a person who has experienced death in the family, and death of friends, I know it is painful. However I have read the posts in this forum. I have seen the tribute video and audio files posted, and I have to say that this is the saddest thing I've ever seen. Now I don't say sad as in grevious, I mean sad as in pathetic. Go ahead, brand me as a villan for having the balls to say what so many want to say but fear the flames.
We can laugh when in WoW somebody crashes an online funeral because thats nerdy and abnormal, but when Verone makes a sappy tribute where he's reading some speech off a piece of paper with the background music from Gladiator or something, thats not nerdy or overboard. When people post video clips where they can hear his voice and oooo and aaaah at some guy that played a game on the internet thats not nerdy or overboard. When people make posts that for once in their life they ran through spellcheck and write as if they're from old England to pay their respects in a BIG way to a guy they've never heard of or spoken to once, thats not nerdy or abnormal.
Firstly, I've met Dark_Elf in Amamake. He had no impact on my life whatsoever, I spoke with him briefly in which he said nothing groundbreaking that forever changed my life. He wasn't a bad guy, polite enough, but to me just some dude over the internet.
Secondly, like Karlemgne, I do not put much credence into "internet deaths". I don't know if he is dead or not nor will I assume. I will however refrain from vomiting in my mouth at the amount of sappy fake horsecrap people are posting. I find it hard to believe that Veto members are in real life pain sitting there unable to eat, sleep, or do well in school because their internet friend "died".
If he actually is dead then I send my respects to his FAMILY, not his internet friends.
And if he isn't dead and this is some attention grabbing scheme by Veto or Dark_Elf himself then may whoever is responsible forever rot in hell.
On top of that how about leaving tributes and commentaries about that person to people who actually know him. I know that if I die I wouldn't want a bunch of internet people telling 200,000 other internet people who I was or at least who they THINK I was.

I thought your response was very apropos to all of us, and our relation to death.
Who are we, and why does anyone care? In the end, nobody does care. Give it two hundred years, we'll all be dead, as will everyone who ever knew us.

Edited by: SkyEstaLimit on 21/09/2007 15:08:23 Some people are so much desperate for attention that they go and tell others that they are'nt right for feeling sadness over the loss of a friend.
If you don't care why do you post at all ? Just be on your way and keep on not caring.
(To the others, sorry to keep adding to it. I'll leave that thread in peace)

Okay, okay, I'll bite. After a little thought I *do* think that all of the Veto signatures, videos, memorials, and constant reference to this tragic event are a bit tasteless and over the top (your bounty sig being the one that made me realize this.) Just let the man be at peace.

Ok, first and only post in the forums here. Much respect and condolances to DE, family and friends.
This topic is for people to express sympathy and respect, nothing else. Find another post to show us how intelligent you are or how this is the internet and it doesnt matter. Just STFU or find somewhere else to troll or make a name for yourself.

First off, I want to give my condolences to Hussman, Verone, Veto, and everyone that knew DarkElf. I feel your loss. I will in no way deface this thread, as its about RL and good people. Again, sorry for your loss.
FZN is totally with you guys, and will always be. Dimitry will be dealt with in a timely manner, and in no way are his views those of FZN. I just wanted to clearify that. Sorry if that was brought about in any wrongful and distasteful manner.
Much love to Verone and crew. RIP DarkElf. -----------------------------------------------

In the future, if anyone has a problem with something I've said on these forums, or in game, you should have the courage to come to me directly.
I do not appreciate it when people can muster up the courage to approach others in regards to what *I* have said either here, or elsewhere, but not have the courage to approach ME. Personally, I think you'd find I'm a reasonable human being, with a great deal of empathy for what others feel, or find offensive, especially in cases like this thread.
However, trying to play little games behind my back goes a long way to erasing any sort of good will I might have had for you, if you'd approached me directly.
As for the content of this thread, I stick by everything I've said. Again, repeating what I've already said here, I never know what to think of internet deaths. There have been two occasions in my interweb life where someone I've known, and talked to (not just knew passingly) have tried to fake their death, and been caught... once by me.
Having said that, knowing DarkElf as I did only through the forums, he never struck me as a kind of guy who would do such a thing. Accordingly, I offer my condolences to his family, his friends, and those who played eve with him.
I am not a religious man, and don't believe in a happy afterlife with angels and singing. What I do think though, is that people who we know, and who we love, make impressions on us. In fact, they change who we are, so that others, in a way, become part of us. In this way, I feel that we all live on, and in turn part of us is transmitted by everyone who we know.
I will also stick to my assessment of the human condition. We all grow old, and we all die. Nobody, no matter how much they try to deceive themselves, makes it out alive. Eventually, everyone we've ever known, our friends, or siblings, parents, children, and grandchildren suffer the same fate. In that very real way, no one is left to "care" that we were ever here.
However, because I think we all live on through those who we did know, and part of us is transmitted to everyone we are close to, we in some sense, survive the demise of all that we, in our life, knew.
I will also, emphatically, tell you how *I* feel about the memorials, the signatures, the flaming, the constant public displays of mourning, and even the going behind people's backs because you have a problem with *my* opinion about this incident. I think that it is in poor taste, and the recent actions of some of you only solidify (see above) this feeling.
These are MY opinions, and MY opinions only. If you disagree, then say so. Don't want to do it publicly? I understand. So convo me, eve-mail me, MSN me, or whatever, but at least have the courage to do that. This is MY last word on the matter, and I will not be posting on this thread again.

I would also like to say something similar to what Karl said, I had the backbone to stand up and say what I believe in this thread despite the possible flames, and instead of addressing me my CEO was contacted of course in hopes of getting me booted. Frankly I don't see it happening nor do I care. My belief's stand more importantly with me then any ingame corporation. I have already said what I believe and see no more reason to push it.
I can appreciate people being upset with my opinion but it remains just that, my opinion, and I believe the commercialisation of someone's death is in VERY poor taste, whether intentional or not. As I said before, I give my respects to the people who knew him in real life as they know his true character and would truly feel the REAL sense of loss. However I doubt that the people who knew him ingame are truly "shaken to their core" and as such should not try to pry sympathy from the EVE playerbase, again whether intentional or not.
I'll say once more, my opinions are my opinions, and I'd also highly advise others, including my own CEO to not make threats against me idle or not.

Until now I've not felt the need to address you directly purely because of the fact you have shown exactly the type of individual you are by your attitude here, and will probably gain some form of satisfaction out of the fact I'd bite at you.
People deal with loss in very different ways and your assumption that the member of our corp we lost was a member ONLY of an online gaming community is wrong on a fundemental level.
A lot of the UK roster of our corporation are out of game friends and as such we have a very tight social circle that has developed both in and outside of Eve, DarkElf was part of that.
I've known your CEO for a long time, since he also experienced a similar loss in fact. We have a lot of respect for eachother and keep in contact outside of Eve when we can. I spoke to your CEO purely because of the fact I've had absolutley no urge to interact with you after the pure drivel you posted in this thread. Personal opinion or not, backbone has nothing do do with it, there's this thing called commom sense that tells us all there's a time and a place for everything.
The issue is not that you've brought your opinion here, or the fact your sidekick from the Malevolant has done the same.
The issue is that with this character and the your previous when you were a member of The Black Fleet, time and time again you've gone out of your way to flame or make attacks on our corp and it's members for no apparent reason. It's obviously not a part of the character, but the player say at the keyboard that seems to have an issue with either myself, my corporation, or both.
Yet again you've used something that's been posted on Eve-O, no less the real life death of a corpmate, to attempt to cause a scene and belittle and troll our members.
Yourself and your sidekick are the perfect defenition of the fact that anonymity on the internet turns someone one would normally consider a level headed individual into a completely desensitized and disrespectful asshat.

Let me reiterate what Jacques said earlier:
Do not troll this thread.
My sincerest condolences to Dark Elf's family and friends and to all in Veto Corp. Losing a friend is always hard and my thoughts go out to you all.
Please note - if you intend to troll this thread then the response from CRC will be as harsh as we can make it.
