See, I knew we'd get screwed. I had a PLAN too; and it involved training Perception + Willpower skills for the next two whole years; and at 2772 sp/h, thank you. And now I'm being robbed of 72 sp/h, which is 615,168 sp / year. Which means I lose a total of 1,230,336 sp on this deal in total for my current PLAN.
Once again.
EIGHT YEARS BEFORE YOU WILL FEEL THE "NERF".
Once again.
Dunno where you're getting that silly 8 years from, but I'm losing 72 sp/h immediately, so I feel the nerf instantly.
It's very simple.
You are gaining 5.3 million skillpoints to put in things that are NOT LEARNING.
That means you have 5.3 million more EFFECTIVE SKILLPOINTS. Skill points that actually DO something.
As a trade off you are losing 72 SP an HOUR which adds up to be ~630,720 SP lost a year.
HOWEVER once again you have been given a bonus of nearly 5.3 MILLION skill points that actually DO something.
It will take ~ 8.5 YEARS for you to "LOSE" 5.3 million EFFECTIVE Skillpoints. Until that time you will still have more skillpoints DOING something than you would if learning skills were still in the game.
If after EIGHT POINT FIVE YEARS YOU ARE STILL BUTTHURT ABOUT THE SP YOU LOST, THEN AND ONLY THEN CAN YOU MAKE A POST WHINING TO CCP.
This argument is bogus. You do NOT get a bonus of anything you simply get to reallocate sp's you have already earned. A SP is a SP, it doesn't matter what you label it. Your definition of effective skill points is just skill points that aren't in a learning skill. By shifting those learning skill points to another skill set doesn't gain you any skills, it just puts them into an area such as ship skills etc.
The 5.3 mil sp's you lose in 8.5 years is the effective nerf. You will lose that many do to the nerf of 72 sp/hour. So when looking at it over 8.5 years it is a big nerf.
The total sp's after the reallocation will be exactly the same except instead of using some for learning they will be reallocated to whatever you choose. The nerf is still 72 sp/hr effective immediately and continuing until it is changed again.
To say that learning skills do not actually do anything is bogus too. They allow you to skill faster so that you acquire more skills over time. Those skills that actually do something lol. I think for me it was a 2 year payback. So after 2 years i broke even to the point where i would be if i didnt have any learning skills and from that point moved ahead at a faster rate then i would have if i had not used learning skills.
So all the mumbo jumbo about effective sp's and a bonus do not mean anything. It is a nerf plain and simple of 72 sp/hr
