this is really total bullshite! First off, this is the only online game that pretty much takes YEARS to build up any type of good character. I was planning on leveling one of those 1month skills (its bad enough these take that long in the firstplace) while im away at christmas. So what, its not ecemonicly viable to let me do this? how am i supposed to get anywhere in the game then? pay 14euro for that month just to train one skill in a long list of other skills to get to my goal? You make it seem like you have such a great service with your daily down times and multiply 5-6hour downtimes. All this rescent crap is really going to hit the fan soon. Im sure me and many others will not be around to see the crap fly if youknow what I mean. This "bug" fix will be one of your greatest mistakes ever. It really is a shame, i did like this game, but if i cant train skills when im not activated, i might aswell quit now if i cant obtain my longterm goals in the long run. (ps. only have one account myself) I thought you guys were happy enough with needing us to buy a subscription every once in a while to choose a new skill to train.
In the end, this is really just a greedy act by CCP. Whats pretty funny though is that this will backfire on you. with all of these peoples multiple accounts gone and no one gets a short subscription to set a new ghost skill train, you will lose money and players in the run too.

Customer:
1. a person who purchases goods or services from another; buyer; patron.
Leech:
2. a person who clings to another for personal gain, esp. without giving anything in return, and usually with the implication or effect of exhausting the other's resources; parasite.
The proposed change gets rid of leeches, not customers. Which are you?
well since even ghosts have to subscribe every now and then to set a skill, thereis no such thing as a leech in this game since we all have to pay.

the only way this "bug" fix makes it any fairer, is making a class division between players. Only well of people who have the money to keep this up are allowed to continue. this really is capitalism at is highest point.

Originally by: Signaldog I think you're all just a bunch of whiners!!!! I agree that CCP should come out straight with it, and I'll not argue that the timing sucks as well, but COME ON PEOPLE!!!!
Ghost training only affects accounts that are INACTIVE...put it in a Role Play perspective (this is a MMORPG right?)...if you are not paying for your account, your character is effectivly "frozen"...you don't lose anything, you just don't gain anything. Simple enough.
I have two (2) accounts and I will continue to pay and play those two accounts (both with 3 characters apiece) to my hearts content.
Ghost training is a hack and needed to be pulled long ago!! CCP screwed the pooch on how they went about it, but welcome to the REAL WORLD where business is business and games are for people who have time to do the things they want to do...stop confusing the GAME of EvE with the business of RUNNING the game of EvE.
Just my 2 iskies.
watch you tongue little boy. This game is not comparable to other MMOs because its not your ordinary grinder where you play for an hour and lvl up like in WoW. in ever you go for weeks and may not even finish "leveling up" a skill. skrew you and screw you CCP

Originally by: Grarr Dexx Because every noob should start with carrier V trained right off the bat, am I right?
Eve's skillpoint and skill level system was designed that if you wanted to specialize, it was going to cost you time. Now you can't avoid it anymore.
Well what you are saying is that you actualy have to "pay to wait" at least 8 - 12 months to board a cap ship (depending on the atributes of course - it cold take a lot longer if you want to use it close to decent), right? Just pay and watch the "progress bar" move a nanometer a day huh?
The traning system was designed to take time - especialy to kepp the dollars/euros come to them, this is why it costs you about 120 bucks to board a carrier, this is why it costs you about 360 bucks to board a mothership ... and the list can go on. I'm not saying that SP's are free but think about it, every one that is "ghost training" returns, and pays sooner or later.
so, so true. thanks you

Originally by: Todoshi What are the chances that a dev can get his ass from hiding and actuly reply to the playerbase or are they all as gutless as it would seem so far?
No they are actually off working.
They dont need to reply to you.
They are canceling ghost training and if you dont like it, quit. Noone will miss you least of all the EvE Devs
Oh i think many of you will miss us. CCP said themselves that an "Avalanche" of people are doing this. I wouldnt be surprised if the player count drops by over 100,000 players in the next 3 months.
