Expand skills above level V
Of course skills could take a year, if not years, to reach the next level, but if we wanted the option to do so we should be able to.

Gunnery
20 days for 6
100 days for 7
500 days or 1 and 2/3 of a year for Gunnery 8?
I don't think that instance is bad for a 6% increase to firing speed.
Though it does allow a larger margin for fail training. IE, punishment for not knowing the game.
Like the Toughness Feat in 3.0 D&D.

One of the big selling points in eve is that every skill has a cap, and thus all the noobs can be on par with specialized players in certain areas in moderate amounts of time. This would completely destroy that. Plus you'd make some skills go completely out of whack.

Hmm this is a tough one...... The fact that n00bs can catchup effectively if they choose to specialise is really cool, but too see even further specialisation for hardcore dedicated players would be awesome, imagine a hardcore player with the strongest battleship in the galaxy after 1year of training or someone that can get 100% refine in wh space... I support this idea, but only if the skill training time is ridiculously long, so it develops specialists not n00b pawners. =) |

I too wish they would implement some kind of specialization. If not huge training times, then maybe a limited number of specs?

Well they sort of do now for many weapons and drones. You need level 5 for most specialisation skills. There is none for marketing etc though. I think it would present an issue with game balance and as someone said a selling point of EVE is higher SP's give more variety rather than being better than something. That cap really is needed or new players would not stand much of a chance.
I think I read somewhere that it would take 36 years to train all skills to level 5. That's enough for me:)

Learn to play with the skills you have, you don't need more.

I think every man and his dog would train engineering lvl6 and electronics lvl6 before embarking on the one year long advanced weapon upgrades lvl6 
Would be pretty awesome though.

using EVEMon i found out that it would take about 23 years, organizing learning skills efficiently at the beginning, to max out all skills at lvl 5. this is WITHOUT implants.

Skill Levels over L6+ are only avaliable if you had no father, your from a small desert planet and your meta-chlorian count is higher than Master Yoda's - and then you have to be instructed in the ways of the Force... sadly, only to turn to the darkside and then bio-mass yourself in a dual with Obi-Wan and afterwards become an NPC for Sansha's Nation.

Never going to happen.
The skill set up now is great. It is farirly easy for a newb to get to 80% of a veteren, but it does take significant time investments for someone to start getting lvl V in skills. This means a newb isn't faced with a monsterous gap between him and the vet, and can see the light at the end of the tunnel for catching up in certain skills.
