The EVE Online blog has been updated with a new post penned on behalf of the current Seventh Council of Stellar Management. In it, the Council pays tribute to Sean Smith, aka Vile Rat, who was killed in the attack on the United States Consulate in Libya earlier this week.

I recall our talks evolving from him having a crappy connection he could barely play EVE on in Iraq to something finally resembling normal.
