I would like some CCP feedback on this if possible.
What do you guys think of having an ability to delete unwanted skills? This would not include a refund of any skillpoints. Main reason behind this is to clean up your skillboard. |

I'm assuming because some skills might get you ridiculed/rejected when applying to a PVP corp.
Something like: "You trained ICE HARVESTING to level V? GTFO!"

This is the most baffling request I've ever seen. And the weird thing is this isn't the first time someone's requested this. Previous requests also didn't want SP refunds for the deleted skills either. "For example, if you are thinking about selling a Republic Fleet Firetail as a regular Firetail, be sure that the market volume is high on regular Firetails and that there are plenty of buy/sell contracts for Republic Fleet Firetails. [...] The players most interested in Republic Fleet Firetails are going to be players flying regular ones."-á -- PB |

I'm trying to fit my incredulous face, but I don't have spare capacitor for that. Why would you want this rather than an option to HIDE skills? |

Why would I ever get rid of mining 1? It came with the character when I made it, it sets me apart |

Ex. Lets say you built a Amarr toon years ago, you were given Amarr frigate and/or you trained small energy turret to level 2. At that time you decided to go full Winmatar, never wanting to train anything Amarr again. Well instead of having 2 eyesore skills that are never used, just be able to nuke them.

I had asked this in regard to strategic cruiser skills some time back, reason being I had serious issues with skills not applying and losing said ship. As far as I can tell the problem is still there from what I've seen on the test server. The response from the GM was a flat out no. The policy is skills will only be removed if it is a problem with the skill itself. |

I can see the desire to have things tidy. I can't see why CCP would/should spend a finite resource to include it in the format you are suggesting. Think it through for a few seconds ...
How many players do you honestly expect to make use of this functionality? 1% of the player base? More? Less? So how many hours would be needed to code it, test it (And I'd want deletion of skills to be thoroughly tested and have safe-guards in place) and so forth?
Seems silly.
How about the ability to create a resume for your character? This can be used in Corp applications or used to view your character. This way, you get a benefit in that you can submit only pertinent skills to a Corp when applying and you can view only those special skills that fit your mood.
Even that has limited use though.

doesn't the skill points also affect the price of clones?
Maybe started a miner years ago and wants to clear out 1-2mil skill points to make it a little cheaper |

How about you be patient, max out your winmatar skills, then once they are all 5s, cross train amarr to keep things tidy. |

I would very much like that option, however ccp will never be so nice as to do it.
to those who ask why would anyone ever want to - to me the character sheet is like... a bonzai tree. you need to trim it sometimes to make it just right. no i dont want to have some of the skills i have on it, no i did not make a "mistake" these skills were forced upon me during character creation, so the only "mistake" was signing up to eve. i have never used them. i never will.
to the haters - how can us removing skills/skill points from our character sheets and geting nothing back possibly unblance the game for you?
clearly there are people to whom this is an issue. sure its a minor one. a minor eye sore that has been there for years every time i look at a character sheet. |

It won't, oh one unversed in the finer arts of reading and comprehension. It will however consume finite development and testing resources that could be better spent on something that will affect and be useful to more than just 2 players.
Cost / benefit ratios and all that, you know.

Worst idea I have ever seen.
I paid for the time to train those skills. I would expect a refund equal to what I am removing.

No.
If you want to build a "racially pure" character then you do it from the start and you stick to it. You trained the skills, you live with them
Quite apart from anything else, "racially pure" characters are significantly more valuable than "impure" characters and the reason is because they are RARER.
Start again if it bothers you that much. |

Honestly, the more SP you grow into the less of a visual impact that 500k SP in Industry will affect you. Once you have 40-50 million SP in spaceship command, you won't even see Industry anymore. Need stuff moved? Push Industries will handle it. Servicing highsec and lowsec - and we do it faster and more reliably than anyone else. Ingame channel: PUSHX |

If you just want to remove the skills without refund, simply to assuage your OCD, then fine. Getting SP back? Not a chance. GÇ£If you're not willing to fight for what you have in GëívGëí you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.GÇ¥

If asked about why you trained mining skills, tell people you were training to be bait. |

I have some Caldari ship skills that I've not used in over eight years, and I will probably never use them again.
Do I want to get rid of them? Not really.
I'd much rather the devs used their time to code something that was actually useful. Dulce et decorum est pro imperium mori. |
