I don't think it makes a difference if one supports this or not, CCP recognizes and is aware of the problem, they simply haven't come up with a solution. It's in their best interest to do so and it will probably eventually happen.
CSM time is better spent on other things.
(It has no impact on my argument, but I think the skills are an absolutely dreadful game design mistake. One which is understandable, and understandably hard to correct. Which kind of makes them interesting for those of us interested in such things.) -Jin Nib Trading on behalf of Opera Noir since: 2009.03.02 03:53:00

Originally by: Serinas Setzuni I had a simple idea and I'm surprised no one else had brought it up already...
Don't worry, when CCP gets around to it I'm sure they'll manage to find a solution that infuriates everyone equally. -Jin Nib Trading on behalf of Opera Noir since: 2009.03.02 03:53:00

Originally by: Stupid McStupidson Don't like them, don't train them. Stop being so obsessed with other characters skillpoints. For the one millionth time, doing any given activity, or flying any given ship, you are only using a relatively small subset of SP. Any and all SP not related to that activity is wholly irrelevant. Why does it grate on you that one player gets there in 30 days, when it took you 32?
Players are measured on their knowledge of game mechanics, and their ability to put them to use. You do not need n SP in x amount of time to do this. There is no trophy for reaching a specific number in the least amount of time. A player with faster training times might acquire the ability to perform one mini profession or related group of level V skills in a year.
In any case, high learning skills take progressively longer to pay off, since you could have been training a direct game related skill during that time. Somebody somewhere made a chart covering this, which I can't be arsed to find.
It has nothing to do with comparing other players, it has to do with being able to acheive your own train goals faster. You should consider that this is also part of the games mechanics unfortunately. As such training well is also important to a lot of people.
The trophy is that a person can get into what they want that much sooner and fly it well that much sooner. Not everyone wants to fly frigs for the rest of EVE. It has nothing at all to do with characters comparing SP sizes. -Jin Nib Trading on behalf of Opera Noir since: 2009.03.02 03:53:00

I have never talked to anyone in game that has been discouraged by learning skills. In my experience new players stay playing the game because of them.
Are you trolling? It's really hard to tell. -Jin Nib Trading on behalf of Opera Noir since: 2009.03.02 03:53:00
