Obviously I didn't know Ms. Genender on any personal level, but she is the only CCP employee I ever had any sort of back-and-forth conversation with, short as it might have been. It pains me to hear about her passing, but I can only imagine how her colleagues, friends, and family must feel.
Fly safe Taera. All of us here at the forum will miss you. |

On behalf of 313th I'd like to extend my deepest sympathy with Taera's family, friends and collegues. May you find the strength to carry on, I'm sure she'd want you to. If only we could upgrade our clones in real life too...
Naming a system after her might be a good idea. A monument could be erected in her memory, carrying some info about her for everyone to read.
Rest in peace, Taera. We salute you. |

wow I'm in shock - I too had the pleasure of meeting Taera during my time in Eve University and she was one of it's brightest lights. I'll always remember laughing at the hurricane named garlic cup. So long Taera and thanks for the many hours of laughter and entertainment, may you rest in peace.

I wish I knew what to say. This comes as an incredible shock. I knew Laura from when she started playing EVE, and kept in contact with her through chat, other online games, and TeamSpeak. She always made me laugh, made me think, made me her bi--h in Team Fortress 2 :,) I just wish I could have said goodbye. She will be missed greatly, but she will always have a place in my heart.
o7, Taera. You were awesome.

"To the stars, Bowen. To the stars"
May Taera join the stars so that we may fly in rememberance of her. Godspeed.
My prayers are with her family and friends at this unfortunate time.
I vote for naming a system or region in rememberence of Taera.

I don't honestly know how best to add to this, I'm still a little in shock. I don't think I have the level of eloquence required to properly eulogise someone I admired so much and had a great deal of fondness for, so I figured I'd just share a few memories that make me a little less morose.
I'd known Laura since she started playing EVE, prior to her time at CCP. It wasn't a long time, just less than a year ago. And yet I'd like to think she was one of my closest friends in the game, along with a close friend on the internet generally (as close a friend as you can be to someone who lives on a different continent).
We spent a lot of time verbally abusing our mutual friend and general scapegoat, Toros - and each other - on EVE University teamspeak. We'd talk about food. A LOT. She was always extolling the virtues of pumpkin pie/hashbrowns/kugel/muffins/steak/meat salad (no don't ask) - anything really, never failed to make me hungry along with her. We'd post a lot of links of people doing silly things on the internet, as you do, so much so that I had a good 2 hour backlog of random videos to watch some nights. Occasionally, when the mood took her she would sing for our entertainment. She was actually pretty good, and getting her in a silly enough mood to start was the highlight of many an evening on TS. We'd sometimes end up playing TF2 where she'd inevitably come top of the scoreboard on every map then start laying down hilarious comebacks to those who complained about her prowess with a rocket launcher.
One of my favourite EVE-related memories was one of our whimsical exploration trips into low sec. We took a really badly fit pair of ships. I think I had an Omen which the particular character I was using could barely fly anyway, she was undoubtedly in some Minmatar rust bucket with mission loot fittings, as was her wont. At some point we scanned out an unarmed POS and tried to steal a Probe from behind the shields. Guessing POS passwords isn't as easy as you'd think sadly, so we just ended up throwing our pods at the shields for a while giggling like kids about our "Grand Theft Probe" that never happened. It was probably a lot funnier at the time.
There's so many more weird little bits I remember from spending online time with her, I could go on forever. She was capable of being incredibly intelligent, highly opinionated and often wilfully stubborn one moment, but in the next she made me laugh and act silly a lot more than I ever gave her credit for. I will truly miss that, as I will truly miss her.
Rest in peace dear. I wish I could've known you longer.

She needs at least a system named after her. Maybe Genender's Star. That has a nice ring to it. |

I never knew Taera, but I wish I had. It sounds like she was an amazing person, and the world is a lesser place without her. |
