I am saddened to read of this, Ninjr was a tremendous asset to the VO community. I think a roving Trident that simply provided free reps would be the ideal tribute. May EMS continue despite the loss of it's valued Texas Division.

Yohohoho Yohohoho - Should have posted an Engerish version for the none Japanese out there, but nice song.

Ninjr, thank you.

Yo hohoho, yo hohoho. Yo hohoho, yo hohoho
Yo hohoho, yo hohoho. Yo hohoho, yo hohoho

Gather up all of the crew, it's time to ship out Bink's brew.
Sea wind blows, to where, who knows? The waves will be our guide.
O'er across the ocean's tide. Rays of sunshine far and wide.
Birds they sing, of cheerful things, in circles passing by.

Bid farewell to weaver's town, say so long to port renowned.
Sing a song, it won't be long, before we're casting off.
Cross the gold and silver seas, a salty spray puts us at ease,
Day and night, to our delight, the voyage never ends.

Gather up all of the crew, it's time to ship out Bink's brew.
Pirates, we eternally are challenging the sea.
With the waves to rest our heads, ship beneath us as our beds,
hoisted high upon the mast, our jolly roger flies.

Somewhere in the endless sky, stormy winds are blowing by,
waves are dancing, evening comes, it's time to sound the drums.
But steady men, and never fear, tomorrow's skies are always clear.
So pound your feet and clap your hands 'til sunny days return.

Yo hohoho, yo hohoho Yo hohoho, yo hohoho
Yo hohoho, yo hohoho Yo hohoho, yo hohoho

Gather up all of the crew, it's time to ship out Binks' brew.
Wave goodbye, but don't you cry, our memories remain.
Our days are but a passing dream, everlasting though they seem.
Beneath the moon we'll meet again, the wind's our lullaby.

Gather up all of the crew, it’s time to ship out Bink's brew.
Sing a song, and play along for all the oceans wide.
After all is said and done, you'll end up a skeleton,
so spread your tale from dawn 'til dusk upon these foamy seas.

Yo hohoho, yo hohoho…Yo hohoho, yo hohoho…
Yo hohoho, yo hohoho…Yo hohoho, yo hohoho…

Yo hohoho, yo hohoho…Yo hohoho, yo hohoho…
Yo hohoho, yo hohoho…Yo hohoho, yo hohoho…

Merry and safe travels my friend, you will be missed.

One of the few players in this game that I never shot.. and he was one of the most helpful repairing or just helping out with loads of plasteel. ;)

I'll miss you mate. You will always live in our hearts and prayers.

Feels like yesterday we lurked behind an asteroid spying on a hive swarm, took them out then he gave me some UC's megaposis and a quick PVP lesson. Helpfull and was always up for making things more fun. Only knew him for a year, but he made it a good one.

Weird, it never crosses my mind that any of you could die... In some strange way, I feel like I would be feuding with Dr Lecter (albeit more playfully now than before) and bitching about tgft for...ever

I don't play that much anymore, but for some reason I just assume it is all locked in time. I come back, and you're there. Same old shit, same old rants, same old run and gun. Obviously none of that is the case and it doesn't require much understanding to come to the conclusion that life doesn't work that way. But then, it is a fantasy world and the rules are up for interpretation. But I guess in the end life simply doesn't respect any of us or our fantasies.

I remember shooting Ninjr.. a lot. I remember everytime I'd see an EMS tag repairing whatever enemy I was fighting, that I would get pissed and start shooting Ninjr. I never really got to know him though. I hope he found my volatile personality amusing at least and not frustrating (like it is for most). From what I read, he seems like the best kind of player for the game. A really good sport about it.

Maybe I'll play with him again some day, and he can run around and shoot me while I rep his enemies.

RIP Ninjr. Rare is it to find such a helpful person in such cut throat MMOs. Fly well.

Where's the capship nowadays? I'd expect it's exploring some newfangled uncharted space?

+1 on capship.
It would be the best of honors for a VO pilot to me.
I never met the man but it seems he enjoyed his time in VO.... Maybe one of his kids or grandkids will play VO someday?

RIP ninjr.

i do think the idea of a capship where you can r/r that cant be PCB and is god mode ( for the sake peeps doing foolish stuff)

also clank please in all of the place be rude somewhere else.

may ninjr have safe travels for wherever he shall be going.

Sad to hear. Rest in Peace, pilot.

I am extremely saddened to return from a couple of years hiatus and read that ninjr is no longer with us.
He certainly enjoyed this virtual universe and all of the colorful characters within. Rest In Peace sir. o/

Incarnate it's been a over a year, and I've yet to see anything happen towards Ninjr's memory in game.

So, the community will do your job for you. This is something that you should have done yourself.

I have transferred the necessary funds and widgets to EMS for their "UDV Ninjr" Trident Type M.

Thanks.

Too bad you didn't just ask Inc about it.

I have two unsolicited suggestions for two separate groups:

A) Dear Incarnate/guides, please don't delete these last few posts. Just move them to their own thread, titled like something "self-aggrandizing bigot Mi5 tries to score points, again." I feel like Mi5 is basically getting a free pass on the horrible things he posts when they get deleted, since no-one can point them out for future newbs to help them understand how he thinks.
(This may be a terrible idea, I don't know, you're the ones that know what you want out of this community.)

B) Dear EMS, please don't. If this actually happened, find some other way. Dump the crap in space. Transfer the funds to an alt and delete it.
If you really think Ninjr wanted to be "honored" by a person that thinks transsexuals aren't people and that half of all gays are pedophiles then either you really didn't understand Ninjr, or I really didn't understand Ninjr.

Thanks.
I feel dirty now.

Gotta say, I'm with Genka on B)

@Whistler

My pleasure, I wasn't interested in a conversation about inaction, I would be surprised if I even got a constructive response. At the end of the day, actions speak louder.

@genka

You lie, but I won't debate you here, there's a time and place. This isn't it.

Damn. Well, I can't come up with a good response to this.

Well, since I don't want to come off as callous, I give my condolences to his family and close ones.
