One ship type of each class, no ship allowed to have even a slight inbuilt advantage over another, just different skins so folk can feel that their ship is 'different' to the others.
Further to this, each ship class should only be allowed to fight ships of the same class in equal number fights.
Finally, Eve Online should be renamed as - Vanilla Online. Seriously. This seems to be where things are headed. It's sad.
No it not. They are just getting rid of the FOTM blanace passes.

Because instead of having 1 OP ship and 7 lesser ships, you'd then have 1 OP, 1 okay and 7 "why do you even undock?" ships. Power creep is not a good idea. No.. power creep is good because keep peopel interested and make unsubscribed come back.
Get out.
Power creep is a terrible thing.

No its not.. and EVERYONE that studied game design theory knows that. On the long run it is the most easily available tool to keep peopel interested in the game. That has been expressed clearly on all tradign card games, the ones that decided to avoid power creep ALL died, not a single exception. The ones that learned how to manage it survived and gained more players.
psychology is more important in game design than math.
EVE isn't a trading card game.

No its not. Power creep happens when you buff a few ships to balance them with an overpowered ship which then makes all of those ships overpowered so you have to buff even more ships leading to a neverending spiral of buffs.
Nerfing the overpowered ship fixes the problem.

Nerfing the overpowered ship fixes the problem. Not when the result is that neither that ship neither the other ones are used.
We use near every ship now. So, that theory of yours doesn't hold up.

Not true at all on the battleship level.
Every battleship is now good (aside from the pest but this fix might change that)
