Do you folks in CCP honestly believe the crap you are talking about? And do you honestly believe anyone actually believes you? Your true motive is absolutely clear, but this is not the way.
EVE has two major flaws compared to other MMOs - you dont rly have an avatar (as in humanoid one, not a ship), and then there is the problem that newer players will always be owned by the old dogs. Thoseare inherent design flaws and while you can sort out the first one (oh noes, walking in stations), there is absolutely nothing meaningfull that you can do about the second one. Just live with it.
What's the current situation - a noob enters the game, puts an AB on his crappy T1 frig and then gets killed by a ceptor that goes 16k a sec before he knows whats going on. And thats the way it has to be, even though the noob will wine about it. Why? Because the said ceptor has spent a shitload of skills and money to make this happen. Even better - someone of his teammates like myself may have taken insane amount of time to learn specific charisma based crap that boost the speed of folks around him (yes, i am a maxed out Claymore pilot). And i even know people that created alts with starting skills specifically for this sort of thing. Now you wanna nerf all that just because your noob playerbase doesnt have the skills that some ppl have been learning for the last 1,5-2 years and die a quick and horrible death? Have you gone completely insane or smth?
Out of the devblog
"Gang Bonus
Skill: Skirmish Warfare - 10% velocityBonus" - it is actually 15% with the implant, get your numbers straight
Do you folks know what happens when a regular civilian somehow gets his hands on a small firearm, and then decides to face a heavily armed guy from the special forces? He dies before he could even think where the safety on the gun actually is. Its only normal that newer players die and can do nothing about when cought by people with insane amounts of experience and skill. You can't nerf smth to hell that people have spent years and billions learning/improving. And i sure havent learned a specific set of 15 mil SPs so that i can give a crappy 25% bonus.
Put it in short - how about you give me my money and SP back when you do this hilarious nerf, so i can spend it on a heavily tanked raven, killing anything that happens to slowly pass near me. And please do remove ceptors and dictors from the game, noone will fly them anyway provided they will die instantly from any light missile Cerberus that happens to pass through the neighbourhood.
Get some vacation and rest on a hot tropical island. The cold weather in the north sure dulls the mind.
