Originally by: Zeba Even though your getting a nerf to your stats your relative speed boost will still be about the same. Meaning that whatever you were outrunning before you can still outrun after the patch.
People keep saying this but it's dead wrong.
They're not decreasing missile or drone speed. So nanos are going to be slaughtered wholesale.
Admittedly, that's my talking-out-of-ass analysis without knowing how fast things will be in practice. But at least it accounted for more relevant facts than yours. - Support fixing the UI|Suggest Jita fixes|Compact logs |

So now they'll be more vulnerable (ie, will actually take some damage). That's the point. They're more in line with armor and shield tank.
You mean they'll be vastly inferior to the point of being nonviable. A "speed tank" that doesn't mitigate damage is not a tank of any kind.
But as I said in my previous post, "that's my talking-out-of-ass analysis without knowing how fast things will be in practice."
We'll see on Singularity, but the forecast is not good. - Support fixing the UI|Suggest Jita fixes|Compact logs |

Why do you think you need to be reimbursed? No one forced you to buy something that got nerfed.
tbh I was just in shock, and a bit emotional after reading the dev blog, and don't really expect reimbursement.
But this is a logical argument for reimbursal: In real life, nothing gets nerfed. The density of water doesn't just suddenly change, the taste of carrots stays relatively constant, the earth goes around the sun. Oranges don't spontaneously turn into zebra excrement.
Now if CCP makes a conscious decision to turn all the oranges in the game into zebra excrement, can't they just put an amount of isk equal to a conservative estimate of the difference in value between oranges and zebra excrement into the wallets of all the people who are now stuck with zebra excrement?
PS: I know it's not happening so I'm just going to keep the snakes and work on a post nerf nano-AB Deimos fit. I'm sure to lose the 'plants soon enough 
Snake pilots might be the only things left in the universe that can effectively nano. Instead of finding yourself a hawk among slower hawks, you might just be the hawk among pigeons.
Wait and see.
And a Diemost? Seriously? - Support fixing the UI|Suggest Jita fixes|Compact logs |

Originally by: Jinx Barker My guess is, and this pretty much on the money I think, it is the most people used Offline tool to fit the ships with full "Speedy Gonzales"set, and realized how powerful it really was, combined with regular run of the mill greed and jealousy they begrudged the few the possibility of even having it. Not that they actually, in their majority ever came under the guns of someone who has fully invested in the setup - it is the thought of it, that they could not stand.
I think it was more along the lines of:
1) Get butthurt by experienced pvpers that happened to be nanoing. 2) Exaggerate the problem and whine loudly on the forums.
Very few people can actually attain and sustain game engine breaking speeds in anything but an interceptor. My nano curse has always take significant damage, from even regular heavy missiles. My vagabond can only MWD intermittently, and so takes some heavy hits, then some negiligble ones. My brief stay in a nano ishtar was met with the sad realization that my drones were utterly sacrificed each time I deployed them, then subsequently sold in jita.
And none of them were ever invulnerable. I've lost two curses in the last month and a vagabond not too long ago. All three were my own mistake, and extremely costly. - Support fixing the UI|Suggest Jita fixes|Compact logs |

DID I JUST GET RAINBOW TROLLED?? 
srslythgh, Do you actually type out those colours or do you have a program/macro?
I have a java program I wrote in an afternoon. Works on PHP BB too with a different command line option. - Support fixing the UI|Suggest Jita fixes|Compact logs |
