This might make a LOT of you missioneers w/ R&D agents really really .... REALLy upset -- but only if during pre-patch you paid around 100 million ISK for those nifty advanced connection skills that increase LPs given to you by agents (bureucratic, Political, trade, Financial, Military, Labor, High tech).
Correct me if I am wrong, but if I remember rightly, there were at least two of those skills that applied to research agents (noted on the info descriptions as R&D) -- and yes these two skills, when trained up, stacked nicely and give you quite a few more LPs with R&D agents.
They were: HIGH TECH CONNECTIONS & LABOR CONNECTIONS
But I just pulled up all of these skills, and, well, R&D agents are no longer on the info description that lists the specific agents for which each connection may be applied. Soooo, was this: a) in an earlier patch I missed; b) in the first Revelation patch that no one noticed; or c) in patch notes somewhere that I missed.
I found this old internet link that actually lists the old descriptions of the two skills in questin, and sure enough, the now disappeared R&D agents are listed along with the rest of the agents.
Sooo, for those of you who spent 100 million+ ISK on the two connection skills that increased and stacked LPs from R&D agents, I think you have just been screwed. But I could be wrong.

I have both of those book I got from agents, and at least since they came out in RMR, they have been 5% more LPs per level. They have never affected RPs, at least since they got seeded....

From the OP's link given above:
High Tech Connections: Intelligence Understanding of of high-tech corporate culture. Improves loyalty point gain by 5% per level when working for agents in the following corporation divisions: Archives Advisory Intelligence R&D Manufacturing Surveillance
Labor Connections 1 Charisma - Intelligence Understanding of corporate culture on the industrial level and the plight of the worker. Improves loyalty point gain by 5% per level when working for agents in the following corporation divisions: Manufacturing Production Personnel Mining Astrosurveying R&D
Also, I know I took screen shots of the info window on these two skills when I first started EVe, and saw R&D listed under both High Tech and Labor. However, as far as I know, R&D agents have never given LPs, only RPs. Sooo, maybe a long time player can chime in. Was there ever a time when R&D agents gave Lps and were affected by these two connection skills as it seems was indicated in a previous incarnation of the skills?

Kill that link advertising a isk selling site.
As said, R&D agents don't give lp so the skillbooks do not nor have they ever had any affect on the RP of the agent.

Highlight, a bit more from the OP's link, so all can understand better. You will note, it never says, nor does, increase Research Points.

Guys, c'mon. Lighten up. It's just a link to show what the old description of the connection skills stated. It's not an ad for isk-selling. Goin there is not going to magicallly empower the Isk sellers or contribute to their nefarious schemes.

That site is dedicated to selling isk and items for out of game currency. Thus not allowed. They may also have breached CCP copyright by stealing and reproducing content without their (CCP's) prior permission.
Remove the link and stop giving them free google pagerank / advertising.

Having studied the grammer in both the ops opening statement and Sohei's reply I am opening the following book.
Op and Sohei have never ever logged in under the same IP or are not owned by the same player ofering 2/1 odds.

Excuse me gentlemen. I apologize for posting the banned inappropriate link. TBH, I have been posting a lot today in hopes of helping players with questions about all sorts of things and I really wasn't paying attention to the link's actual site. I was just seeing the old description it contained as pulled up by google. Glad it was removed. I'll try to be more careful.
