Signaldog Gallente Cloak and Daggers	Posted - 2008.10.14 13:07:00 - [1] 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. READ MY SALVAGER THREAD HERE!!!!
Signaldog Gallente Cloak and Daggers	Posted - 2008.10.14 14:33:00 - [2] Originally by: Lag This change is complete crap. Why should I pay for a months time that my character will not be able to do anything? You can do something...in fact, you can do anything you want, but most importantly, you can PLAY the game you are paying for...nothing says you can't play and train a skill at the same time....I've got BS V on one account (paid for non-stop) and Enough skills/SP to fly a Rorq on a second account (paid for non-stop) and have PLAYED the game the entire time.

Not everyone ghost trains their level 5's. However, it is a popular thing to do when people want to take a break from eve. People should have the option. It is what CCP promoted and it is what has attracted many people to the game. The converse is Why should you get Carrier V without paying for it? $30 for Carrier V, don't think many people would train it if they had to pay for it. Those cap skills are quite lengthy at level 5. I still just don't get it...you are paying to PLAY, not to learn a skill. CCP screwed up when they did this, only because of HOW they did it. READ MY SALVAGER THREAD HERE!!!!

I don't know about you, but if I were to train carrier to 5, the length of the skill would be nagging at the back of my head a lot. Everytime I log in "Dammit! 64 days, grrr!" I have done and I ya, i get that "Damnit" quite often, but that doesn't stop me from playing the game. I've got skills planned out for the next 283 days (evemon says so), but that doesn't mean I won't be PLAYING for those 283 days...each skill completed allows me to integrate a new piece of hardware into my specific style of gameplay, whether it's PvP or PvE or market or industry or what have you. Point is, I pay for 2 accounts every month so I can play 2 characters day in and day out (or not for weeks if I choose). CCP screwed up on the manner in which they did this, but I'm still trying to figure out what the BIGGEST issue is: 1) Loss of Ghosting? 2) CCP Actions? 3) SOME players ****ed cause they lost their free ride? I don't know...someone tell me. READ MY SALVAGER THREAD HERE!!!!
