Not only was he a player, but he was a former member of the CSM and one of the main diplomats for the Goonswarm Federation (biggest alliance in the game). The Mittani (leader of the Goons) penned an article about the loss of Sean (aka Vile Rat) here: http://themittani.com/news/rip-vile-rat

To give you an idea the kind of impact he has had in EVE, last I looked nearly (EDIT) 250 player owned stations have already been renamed in his honor, many by Corporations that are not friendly with the Goons. EDIT w/ 100% more outpost rename linkage: http://evemaps.dotlan.net/outposts/changes
