Since someone waited until the very last day or so before posting on the dev blog that we actually didn't need to train Combat Drone Operation V, you should give us the SP back for that skill when you make the change. This is for characters that also had Scout Drone Operation V trained.

You should do this anyway, regardless of this miscommunication, as any other approach simply gives SP to those who didn't train this skill while eliminating a fully trained skill for another set of characters. If someone has explained how this is will be fairly compensated, I apologize for not seeing this and would appreciate a link to that reasonable explanation as a reply to this post.

Thanks, but that's a forum post among many pages of forum posts. The original dev blog was not modified in this way until very recently. There is no reason for the conflicting information to have remained.

On top of this, the point remains that some pilots are having a skill removed without any adjustment or compensation. Someone who had both trained to V before any of this was changed is still getting the shaft.
