          I started to wondering about this issue while trying to find new character for me.
  When a newb starts this game, he will spend next 1-2 months trying to train learning skills. Or he will train something else like pvp skills or mining skills and is wasting LOT'S of time. I know guys who has tried EVE and didn't upgrade to real account since they don't want to pay month for nothing.
  Why is it eather train something usefull slowly as hell or train something totally unusefull so you can someday train something faster?
  And I agree those guys, I would start new characters rightaway if I wouldn't have to spend that 1-2 months on useless learning skills... That's not anyones career in EVE.
  Why there isn't just basic starter toons with some attribute setups instead of this time wasting? Check character bazaar, there is like 10 M SP characters with nearly nothing on learning - imagine how many months they have wasted?   How many of the new players actually reads guides for new character creation and spends the first months on learning skills so he or she can actually start playing the game?

          Sorry, I am not looking for suggestion for that should I train learning skills OR not. I just think that they are bad for the game. There is enough skills to spend that time what you have to use for learning..

  No, you train learning skills so you can someday ACTUALLY do something in this game.
