Are you going to invite Aiko’s ankle-biter to your little circle jerk? I see it’s allowed to post again. Mr Epeen 🕶 ---

Yea, I have to agree. His post is an absolute piss-take, and even a bit rude/belittling towards the feeling of the mourners in question. He’s essentially insinuating that their feeling aren’t real just because they’re not physically there with the body. ---

> [@Calamity\_Unleashed](#): > > What’s he doing in a forum for a game he doesn’t play? He got ganked over ten years ago, and the rest is just bitterbear salt. All the antigankers are the same, endless forum posts but no killboard activity, never seems to do anything at all, just crying endlessly in the forum like one day that will convince CCP to ban all the gankers. Every now and again Mr Epleb will post a screenshot of his pitiful networth in an attempt to impress someone who doesn’t have a credit card. ---

> [@Done25](#): > > A group of people gathering to mourn the passing of a comrade is just as real in digispace as it is when happening in meatspace. That sort of misses the point. The rest of Eve has no idea who your deceased friend Joe Bloggs ever was, or whether they even really existed. When your funeral cortege arrives in Uedama and you announce ’ Don’t gank us…we’re having a funeral procession’, how does anyone KNOW that any of what you say is true ? Eve is full of scammers, and the ‘funeral cortege’ would be the ultimate hauler scam. ---

> [@Done25](#): > > He’s essentially insinuating that their feeling aren’t real […] They aren’t. Feelings don’t define reality. And they change. Sorta piss poor and narcissistic to expect everyone else to “feel” the way you do. Besides thats all a red herring anyway. The fact was, a couple of people were roleplaying a funeral in a fictional space video game, and some people were roleplaying as gankers. If you want to truly hold a _real_ vigil, then it should be done in _real_ life. ---

lol Is there a way to do, like, ten likes on this? Edit: I’ve also seen some folks mention that there’s no way for the attackers to know what’s going on… I remember way back, when I was new. The first thing I was taught was WATCH LOCAL. You tellin me that no one was A) watching local and B) said anything about it in local? I knew there were some real sick fks in the game, but damn. ---

Aiko, if, you were to physically pass from this planet, would it be inappropriate to set up a funeral progression of gankers and go from system to system saving miners from themselves in your honor? ---

Yes, and antigankers can’t interfere because they are incompetent, and even if they could interfere they still couldn’t because it’s a funeral lasting ten years. ---

> [@kamaTayun](#): > > I’ve also seen some folks mention that there’s no way for the attackers to know what’s going on I’d go further than that and maybe start up a corporation… FUNERAL CORTEGES R US Need 200bn _safely_ transported through Uedama ? Help is at hand. For a small ISK fee we can arrange for your 6 month old alt to have ‘died’ and can notify all the regional gankers that a funeral cortege will pass through Uedama on its way to Jita as a mark of respect for the fallen comrade. As it would be totally disrespectful to scan your ships, you can then fill them with 200bn worth of goodies to haul. We can arrange for a new alt to ‘die’ every week so you can maintain this lucrative scam…sorry…business. ---

I held a funeral in Eve Online for my Grandpa. I fit a hauler with a tractor beam and towed the letter about him inside of the cargo container. Eventually the container vanished. So quit being disrespectful towards the way someone else honors their dead. ---
