It is my sad duty to report to all here that a very close friend and my Klingon Fleet member Thomas (Nekhron Kirov) Creedon II has died.
I will spare everyone here the details but it was way too soon. Thomas was a US Army Vet (Cav) Sargent (Decorated) Mogadishu and first Gulf war he was disabled due to injuries from weapons fire and being gassed by Saddam's non-existent Bio and chemical weapons. He loved playing STO and He and I formed The Great Ancient House of Seplch. (Fleet) We had some people join and then leave when they got bored of the game. Thomas and I held the house together and his characters and mine continued to build the fleet bases. We spent many hours playing this game with a lot of laughs and fights against the Feds and all enemies of the Empire. He was very dedicated to STO so that he was a life member. He convinced me to get a life membership also. Unfortunately his life way too short. His character was the House Seplch military adviser and mine the House leader and name holder. I will miss my friend very much and will work to complete the House Holdings in his honor.


Thomas C. Creedon II (Nekhron Kirov) USA CAV -September 19th 2016-
Gone to "Stovokor" as an Honorable Klingon Warrior
I will drink much Blood Wine in your Honor

Dahar Master "Epitai" Kelrok son of Pok Seplch House Leader Tactical

    I wish you strength in these dark days.
    For me, passage is a natural phenomenon, and I am personally not affected by someone's passage (autism being the cause, I'm "emotionally detached", according to my shrink).
    But this does not mean, I do not understand (Asperger-Savant).

    To your lost friend, i dedicate a tune, played by a close friend of me, Robert Tiso:
    Beethoven, Ludwig van - Moonlight sonata (Glass Harp).

    May his soul rest in peace...

    PS: should you like to talk about this, I am available, I know, some consider me a weirdo due to some of my points of view, but I am not therefor less a human being.
    Should you want a friend in these days, throw me a message on Skype: Xogroroth.
    It can be a good thing to talk to a friend, sometimes, in days of sorrow and pain...
    Klingons don't get drunk.
    They just get less sober.

    A different topic than what i envisioned from the title. Condolences to his friends and family.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    May you hear the cry of the warrior, and Kahless will welcome you into Sto'vo'kor!! Today is a good day to die comrade. Soon you will float down the river of eternal glory!!

    On behalf of Starfleet Liberty Force/Orion Liberty Fleet,

    sad to hear... although I assume he got to enjoy the things he loved (Star Trek) during his well deserved retirement

    just getting some facts straight though on "being gassed by Saddam's non-existent Bio and chemical weapons"
    1991 Saddam had bio and chemical weapons nobody ever disputed that fact in 1990, however I think you are referring to the second gulf war where this was a matter of heated debate, but ultimately turned out to be a fabricated lie by the CIA and MI6 in 2003
    trying to put a political statement into the obituary of a deceased soldier is unnecessary, especially on a game forum.
    Go pro or go home

    Not to turn this into a war facts thread, however, Saddam never used bio agents against us troops. We would have been burying Iraq in 1991 if he had. There was a small release of sarin and cyclosporine mixes at a munitions storage facility that was demolished by us troops after the main conflict. Due to bad planning by us demolishing, up to 100,000 us troops could have been exposed to low levels of these nerve agents.
    Anyways, condolences on your loss.
