What is the purpose of having 3 chars per account, if you can't train their skills simultaneously?
It is sure, that on character can't be developed in many ways. If you want to different in nature stuff, like PvP, and mining, producing, you need two or more chars. But with the limitation of actively training only one, you don't have other option then open a new account, and of course pay for it. So CCP have found a real world money sink in their favor.
Please allow simultaneously training of skills in all three characters in an account.

in fact that's called a ripoff - they could as well only allow one character per account, atm alts aren't useful for much else than suicide scouting in lowsec...

No.
You can decide You dont like Your current character and create a new one and still be able to get back to the old one.
You can use alt for empire shopping at war etc, wich is very comfortable.
You can make a production alt to sit mining when main is stuck or whatever, or to build ammo, and You only sacifice a few months from Your mains shedule.
You can create an alt for purely RPG purposes.
Or for altcorp management. And altcorps have many uses.
With all 3 chars training simultaneusly, everyone who'd like to get full (that is - servers average) power from his account, wuld NEED to manage skills for 3 characters. Those not doing that wuld be wasting resources, just like currently - people forgeting to change skill for a day or two. And changing skills for 3 characters is a lot of dull clicking for avarage non-maniac person.

Rip off, poor value for money, call it what you like but if you don't like it you can choose not to pay. Nobody is forcing you to have 3 characters, nobody is forcing you to have extra alts - you're paying for the convenience.
If you believe the game is unplayable without an alt then the percieved cost to you of the game is greater. That is your choice.
CCP runs this MMO to make a profit, if you don't like how they do that then thats basically tough.

Easy: scamming other players with impunity, scouting 0.0 chokepoints without danger, and checking remote market locations without travel times. Originally by: MaKaVeLi DaDoN

I always thought it was pritty useless having the extra character slots when you only realy want to impove your main. Perhaps CCP could compromise and give characters double or even tripple training time while not selected as the main character.
This atleast gives you a slowly improving alt for the mundain tasks without hampering your main.

tbh and this being only my opinion having 3 "mains" would make it easier for players to avoid revenge attacks effectively giving impunity to everyone that enjoys irritating others. Its bad enough with trial account holders etc.
Id personally like to see singularity speed up the skill training process by x10 so you could check out other races ships and specialities in a matter of hours as apposed to weeks and months as you can do more than enough with one main and 2 slaves.
