OK so this bug has now been removed where people who were not paying subscription fees no longer got free skill training for their characters.
One of the cases for ghost training was when people couldn't afford the full subscription charge so would be away for some time.
So how about CCP introduce a downtime subscription whereby someone can pay a greatly reduced amount say $5 a month so they can keep skill training going, of course you wont be able to log in to the game so as to prevent exploitation.
Players would manage their own account and set those long skills before the reduced subscription kicks in.
So CCP gets their income and customers have the choice to keep their characters skill training going, albeit at a reduced cost.

i don't know if this is a good idea or what effect would it have on other players, but I would use this feature if rl kicks in (beeing a freelance programmer I never know when I'll get to work on an urgent project)... so, you have my vote

I can't imagine CCP could support this as a business model, and I don't want to think of what it'd do to the character market. I'm not convinced it's a good idea, and I am convinced it won't be used the way you want it to be.

Suggested this myself elsewhere but no longer in favor of it after I realized how it would make the job for character farmers only easier.

This would be used as a tool for training capital ship alts on the cheap.
I'd rather people use isk to buy GTC to play if they can't afford the sub, then they at least can still login for some gameplay when they aren't grinding for isk to pay for the next GTC. This is afterall what the GTC system was intended for.
Also, if your wallet is so tight then you can't afford to continue subscribing then you probably can't afford the reduced fee either. It would be false economy.
