"Why the HELL should GALLENTE ships, which are ships DESIGNED BY CREO-DRON to CARRY ******* DRONES GET NERFED?!?!? HUH?!"
Well, maybe Creo-Dron should have designed them to depoy drones rather than just carrying them?
The addition by CCP of bandwidth is really no reason to go around wasting mine.

Drones are overpowered sorry. NO.
How about you back that up. How are drones overpowered?
If they aren't, why are you so bothered about the changes?

Drones themselves are not.
What's overpowered is medium-sized ships (e.g. the Myrmidon) using a large-sized weapons systems (i.e. heavy drones).
This is going to be in large text so everybody sees it and it burns into their brains:
The Myrmidon is NOT a medium sized ship.
The battlecruisers combine battleship sized elements and cruiser sized elements to create something in the middle. It is perfectly legitimate that they are allowed to carry battleship sized weapons, then sacrifice some other things such as POWERGRID if they want to fit more guns.
Oh my, in that case can I have siege launchers on a damnation please?.. or a tach absolution would be groovy.
Or maybe just a cruise vulture would do?

You can be bothered by the changes to a game for many reasons other than the thing being changed is "overpowered." You could, for instance, like game mechanics like they are because you think they are balanced. You could think drones are underpowered. You could just not like the concept of "bandwidth." Etc, etc, etc...
Yeah, you could put hours in on the test server and see how things work, and formulate an informed opinion, or you could run to the forums and scream NERF! (in huge letters)
The Myrm did need a nerf, and the drone balance on sisi is much, much better than it is on TQ.
There are a whole load of changes comming, and the drone changes fit very nicely in the context of the "new" balance.
People in these nerf threads have a tendency to focus on a ship that has been balanced, and effected by changes, and then blaming everything soley on the changes.
If bandwidth had not be introduced I'm sure the Myrm would still have been nerfed, and without the flexibility offered by bandwidth the effect of that nerf would have been far more drastic.

Even 5x heavy drones with a maxed out drone damage bonus is no wheres near battleship class weapon dps. And especially un-bonused heavy drones like on the Eos, they are meh at best. If heavy drones can achieve the dps of a battleship gun, or allow me to fit drone damage mods then I will agree.
5 Siege launchers, 470dps (Raven)
5 Ogre II's, 475dps (Myrm)

Every other thing has been getting named stuff, even more skills, rigs and modules etc but drone ones are far and few in between.
I guess you missed all the drone stuff announced at Fanfest then?

You know what? No U.
I have been through every single nerf cycle of Eve, and had a huge amount of my SP's negated each time.
However, I still support this change, even though it effects me the same it effects you.
I can currently fly a max skill fit Myrm, Ogre II's, full rack of neutrons, reasonable tank, mwd, web & scram, the whole 9 yards .. you know what - it needs a damn nerf more than just about any set-up ever.
I can also fly every combat ship up to BS for every race in game (TI & TII), and I know imbalance when I see it.
