I have all Learnings at Level 5, which took me 116 days salvaging in a Catalyst, begging my Corpmate to allow me cleaning his crap after him.
That said, still the most adorable solution in my opinion is to:
1. remove all Learning Skills
2. give all characters 50 more attributepoints (as the Learnings did)
3. give all attributes 10% bonus the same way as Learning did
4. reimburse the skillpoints spent for learningskills (how much ever the player already spent)
The above reflects my opinion that there is a good reason to train all learnings to V, that I do not follow the "I-suffered-so-should-they" mentaly and ergo think that new players should be having it easier in the beginning.
This way:
new players can enjoy the game earlier and hopefully stay playing the game
old players who did do the learnings do not have penalty
and most important:
old players who did not do the learnings would have been punished having a slower training-time untill then (which they should, as the gamemechanics were there, and if they learned the skills now they equally would never catch up with me)
ergo: no reimbursment of training-time on other skills (NO NO NO!)
This way we have a balance between "good for new players" and "bad for old players". I cannot count the new souls that left EVE after the trial periode, because everyone was saying "learn the learnings" (which you really should right now!)
BUT:
one thing is missing here: what about the time i spent my money on the learnings?! 116 days worth of skilling something that is ditched? that's almost as much as 3 PLEXES (or 45Ç here in Europe)!!
So players who understood the gamemechanics and did the learnings, are punished by paying more REAL money than players who did not?! NO WAY!!
5. add the time spent on learnings to the account subsription OR give me 3 plexes or reimburse enough skillpoints to cover the 116 days I have paid for nothing in the past (in EVE it's skillpints for money, just as my pre-poster said)
Now I do not believe CCP will have point 5 added to THEIR list (IF NOT, DON'T SCREW WITH LEARNINGS), but perhaps they manage to surprise me.
