The interplay between Spock and Leonard has always been beautiful, but perhaps never more than here. This article shows Leonard back in the day...showing how wonderful a human he was, by tapping into the Vulcan he was.
In the hope of a memorial... A fitting inscription should be Mr. Nimoy's last tweet.
"A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP"
I like many of my fellow gamers am saddened by the news of Leonard Nimoy's death and dearly hope that a fitting memorial is place either Starfleet Academy or on Vulcan for this great man
Most likely there might be a memorial statue or something on Vulcan. We'll just have to wait and see what the Devs are going to do.
"Our history, our past, our present and our future is now forever changed. All we can do is preserve what is left and continue onwards. This is not a surrender nor defeat, we will continue the fight. This is our last hope, our last chance... for victory."

My grandfather smoked cigerettes and a pipe for most of his life. He died in 2003 of lung cancer. I can understand what Mr. Nimoy's family is going through at this time. I wish to express my condolences to Mr. Nimoy's family. Now, he can be at peace and out of pain. I'm sure Gene Roddenberry, Majel Barrett, James Doohan, and DeForest Kelly were there to welcome him home.
Cryptic should put up a memorial for Ambassador Spock on Earth and DEFINATELY on Vulcan. Most, if not all players, need the chance to honor the Federation legend.
Cryptic you should do an episode to honor Mr. Nimoy. Can we have the player go back in time to Spock's funeral as an observer complete with all the trimmings. Seems only fitting to hear the bagpipes one last time on his final launch.
As for my childhood icon and some what of a mentor at least his character was.
Thanks for all the undiscovered countries and life lessons.
See you out there some day.

I didn't know him personally, but I always felt "Spock" as a sort of grandfather to me. As a person playing a monumental role in sci-fi characters, he was a king.
He, as an artist and a lover of all the arts, made me see him as an actual person. Not just an actor. A true form of someone whom defines humanity. This is why me thinking of him as Spock is truly trumped by the fact that he was always much, much, more.
P.S.
My avatar is not jumping on the bandwagon of this horrible news. It's been the same since the start. I meant what I said, so please no trolling. I can take it, but this thread can't. Please no trolls in this thread.
I really hope to see a memorial done for him on STO. A place on ESD or Academy would do. As well as a place on Vulcan and New Romulus. Since he had influence on both places.

^ This, I totally forgot that Klink's couldn't go there.
I am deeply saddened by Mr. Nimoy's passing. I remeber watching "In Search of" just to hear Leornard Nimoy narrate it. He, just like the Great Communicator and Carol Shelby is yet another legend that I looked up to in my youth, and will honor thier memerioes in the future.
His passing has made me reminds me that I am at the age that the world is taking more loved ones than it is giving. I am going to have to make a point the see the living ones more than I have.

I think the issue there is that is ostensibly owned by Paramount and not CBS directly so may not be covered in the licensing.
Also in STO lore, Spock isn't officialy dead (afaik) only lost following destruction of Hobus Star and Romulus (and over in Paramount reboot universe).
I would still like to see some sort of monument in game both to the character and to the man who brought him to life for us all.
This is really sad, and I hope the best for his family.
I would say more but I don't think it's possible to accurately put into words how much Leonard Nimoy did for so many people with his work.

Great read. Thanks for sharing.
RIP Leonard Nimoy.
You can find/contact me in game as @PatricianVetinari. Playing STO since Feb 2010.
Much appreciated Cryptic team.
There are no words to express the sadness of his passing. Lenoard Nimoy may be gone, but he will never be forgotten.
Most likely there might be a memorial statue or something on Vulcan. We'll just have to wait and see what the Devs are going to do.

May you have peace and eternal life, I'll keep your soul in my prayers,
and my condolences to the Nimoy family.
I have instructed my crew to remain at Blue Alert today in honor of his memory.
To Leonard Nimoy (Spock) may he rest in peace.
My condolences to the family and friends.
We really need to honour him somehow ingame.
The black banners on ESD are a good start, but they will not stay for long.
He at least deserves some sort of permament memorial ingame. A statue on Vulcan like the image of the news would be fit IMO.
As I' ve readen on FB, we could break the fourth wall for this.
Cryptic, soon, don't make a ugly figure and think of something (I'm sure you're already but still).
As for my childhood icon and some what of a mentor at least his character was.

Please open Vulcan to all factions so we may all gather in tribute to Mr. Nimoy.
