yes, and no word on SP reimbursement.
why would CCP reimburse SP if you didn't lose any and infact gain more?

It feels a bit nasty because the dev-blog mislead you to do something dumb. If you had (the pretty easy skilled) Scout Drones already at V it seems you get a gift if you don't skill Combat Drones any further. If you read the dev-blog and skilled Combat Drones to avoid some huge skilltime multiplikation (like in the past with Destroyer or Battle-Cruiser) you did not save but wasted skilltime because the gift after the update is doing the same for you (so you might feel bad now). Anyway I think it's ok without refund and if you have some fresh toon (like me) you could still take advantage from the update.
nobody mislead you in doing something dumb.
it's a Dev. Blog, a thing developers publish to give it's costumer a glimpse of what they're trying to do and for us to give feedbacks and as such are subject to change.
what you did was assume it won't be changed, tried to take advantage of this information and train CDO V. well buddy, you lost, they changed it and there's nothing you can do about it, sorry.
as i've pointed out before, you didn't lose any SP but actually gained some therefore reimbursement is not necessary.

Well... thx for clearing that up. Why didn't you tell us this before. Oh wait you did? There is a Dev-Blog? Really? Quote:

No need to apologize. I did not loose SP and could still take advantage from it. Others might still trust the Dev-blog and don't loose something either but waste some time. Since you don't have some serious new content in a thread that looks pretty finished, well... it seems many that write here does not have that much to tell but search for some tears. As I wrote already I think it's not smart but ok and you could still take advantage from it right now. But if it helps you to sleep better: :*(
wut?

if you know how to compute then you'll find out that even if you have both CDO and SDO skills trained to V you'll still get FREE SP come Kronos, well, not as much as those who only have either CDO V or SDO V but you'll still get free SP nonetheless.

No, I understand that, but it seems odd to me that they'd give some people more free SP than others. The fair way to do it would be to give people their new skills, and then reimburse the skill being removed, since those that had it trained took the time from training something else to train that.
no it's not odd. the issue here is that you are FIXATED on the amount of SPs that will change and NOT on the attributes/description the (new) skills have and the reason why they are changing the drone skills as a whole.
please, read the new skill's description and look beyond the SP.

If you have CDO and SDO to V, you get no "free" SP. You retain exactly the same abilities you had before, only now you have an extra 256,000 extra SP to pay for when you get podded.
Really, extra SP that neither improves existing abilities or gives no more flexibility is an added tax, as the only thing raw SP is good for is meeting some corporation's arbitrary entry requirements.
Note: I am not actually complaining about the changes, just pointing out this particuar change isn't CCP giving drone-focused characters free stuff.
but the point still stands that nothing was taken away from you and you are NOT entitled to any SP reimbursement whatsoever.

And this is somehow good?
Borrowing from James' earlier example:
A works 4 hours and is paid 5 oranges.
B works (same job) for 2 hours but is also paid 5 oranges.
Employer decides that from now on, any new people will need to work 5 hours for 5 oranges.
then don't accept the job? the employer has the very right what he can offer to you as salary as long as you accept it.
do you honestly believe that in your office/work that all of the people working on the same level are receiving the same salary, benefits and perks? the top boss' sexytary is receiving waaaaay more than a project manager, i garen-tee you.

To A: "You still got FREE oranges, well, not as much as B but you still got free oranges nonetheless".
and your point is? as you admitted you still get free oranges, why are you asking for more when you only get it for free? this is just being greedy man.
it will not make any difference if all of us has the same skills, if you're good you'll win.
