You can petition whatever you want

Well that was helpful. I'm more or less asking if a GM would process my request or not.

I doubt it, this is one of those things that CCP tells you to accept and move on with. I have a few of those skills too

CCP won't remove skills.

Sometimes CCP lowers the prerequisites for a ship, so you end up with all these skills trained to 5 and the ship only requires level 4 now; such is life oh well.

Just ignore the skill and move on. Maybe you'll use it later, who knows, maybe you find yourself mining and want to see what's in an asteroid.

Expect to have a whole bunch of skills trained, and don't expect to be able to keep your character "perfect."

EDIT: Also, sometimes Plunderbunny roleplays snarky on all forums. You'll eventually get used to the various personalities.

It probably wouldn't hurt to ask though right?

I've recently purchased a variety of skills that I've injected onto one of my characters. I'm relatively new to this game and I wasn't aware how (almost) useless the "Survey" skill is to PVP. (Note, I don't pirate or "suicide gank", so I wouldn't need the cargo scanners).

Now my Question is: Could I petition a GM to remove that injected skill? Please bear in mind that I did not train it at all, and I wouldn't see how it would give me an advantage in game if a GM were to remove that skill.

Anyone else have experience with matters like this?

EDIT: Just to clarify, I'm wondering if a GM will actually do it.
