I think the single skill queue is fine ppl can have a backup one in case the server goes belly up for a day again.
More than one is better still.

Also the check if you are subscribed before allowing the skill queue is a fine idea to stopthe farmers.
Huh? That'll have no impact against farmers, everyone gets the same improvement.

Is it exploitable I would like to see an explanation to how it maybe.
Not exploitable but farmers will love it. Further reading - Not a skill queue

if you have it so it checks whether your account is activated as was said earlier this eliminates non subscribers laying on two long skills.
Lol, obviously. There is no way CCP would give away even more free training time. This is a non-issue and has nothing to do with farming.
How about if you train a skill it keeps training to level 5 til you change it?
A real queue is better and can compensate for farmers.

Thus only alowing the skill q for subscribers and not eliminating the old way of being able to leave one skill training.
Ya, there is no change needed, training terminates at end of current skill like always. And, yes, this method of skill completing is free training time. CCP could, instead, have the training terminate the moment the account expires.
Nobody wants it to change and a queue wouldn't change it so it's not really talked about.

That is ridiculous statement, if nobody wants it to change why are there so many posts about it and people wondering if it is possible.
That wasn't about queuing, that was about the gift of finishing the current skill when the account expires.

How is it free training time if the queue is only available to paying subscribers as suggested? Have you not comprehended what ppl are talking about here?
Again, I was talking about the existing gift, not queuing.
Quote:
There is surely a way that can please both casual paying subscriber and not have a negative effect on the gameplay and that would be to only allow a queue to occur while subscribed otherwise normal gameplay resumes win win for everyone.
Absolutely. Try reading some of my earlier posts. I had attempted to explain that a full queue is the way to go. Anything less creates problems.

Yes I have seen all your previous troll.. ahem I mean comments.
That's debatable.
Quote:
If you create an infinite or 100 skill queue a farmer will setup an account for 3-12 months give his character all his skill books and let him train away only to log on when he needs to start a new skill(farmer heaven!).
One more time - Charging ISK solves that. The cash cost to purchase the GTCs to use the queue just has to offset the ease of use and thereby holding the sell price for farmed pilots at the current level.
Quote:
A one or two (preferably one) skill, skill queue can't really help the farmers too this extent and will help the casual gamer enough to strike a balance in making the game more accessible to new players.
Yes it can!
Quote:
Long absenteeism from the game shouldn't be rewarded.
And it won't be. The skill system is not a reward for being active. It maybe considered a reward for forking over lots of cash though. It's not much more than a progressive content enabler.
Quote:
If you have been afk a few months you shouldn't have as much skillpoints as the person who has been playing the game and providing towards it during this time they will rightfully feel cheated.
Don't see why this is an issue. If some dork wants to throw away all that cash and not even play the game then that's his loss. Shouldn't be a concern of anyone else.
