The reason is simple. The people who are whining are wrong.
Speed needs rebalancing for the good of the game as a whole, and if people can't see past their own self interest, shame.

Originally by: Holy Lowlander a whine about ccp not listening to their customers at all.
The real problem is how long it took ccp to nerf nanos. Nanos were a flavor of the month that turned into a flavor of the year. After all that time folks invested a lot of isk and skill points. Of course they'll complain when the fantasy is shattered.
If ccp had reacted faster then it wouldn't have been such a big deal.
Multiple speed boosting mods were in the game longer than nanos have been iWIN, so your arguement is flawed.

Nano ships have been repeatedly nerfed. No multiple mwds. Nano bs's aren't as effective as before etc. And nanos have been boosted with the introduction of rigs.
The reason why nanos work currently is because not just ship attributes, but because of changes in tactics. Either way CCP should have seen this trend and acted a long time ago.
CCP have continually nerfed speed tanking *AND* they should have spotted the trend and acted a long time ago? Which is it?
A clever person may have noticed that CCP had acted against speed tanking several times in the past, and by understanding that trend they may have realised that nanos were going to get a nerf.
I mean, it is hardly rocket science ..
.. oh, wait ...

Surely you've been around long enough to remember your nano/mwd history? Speed is nerfed, a new speed king is found. Speed has historically been one of the better iwin buttons.
Which is why I am not surprised it is getting a nerf now, and that I am all in favour of it.

Proof or GTFO. I would wager that it's primarily the opposite.
I've been here since beta, and I'm all for it.

1500 accounts leaving because of the nerf would be a small price to pay to help balance the game anyway.
Not that they will, but we can dream.

No it's a business. I could teach you a few things about business if you like.
Like voting with your wallet? Go on, teach us.

You appear to be being deliberately dense.
You points over numbers of voters are utterly irrelevant. The system has been actioned on 150 votes (suicide ganking). That might have been (using your logic) 16 people. Yet CCP follow it up.
Are you saying that CCP should do what gets the most votes on the CSM forum, rather than action concerns which fit in to their vision of Eve only?

Ya know it's possible that some people might agree that speed needed nerfing but yet disagreed with the "throw out Risk Analysis and have at the game with a chainsaw" method of nerfing it.
But CCP didn't do that. The whole thing evolved on the test server in several stages, and changes were made continually to maintain or improve balance. I doubt many of they whiners actually took part in that - they'd much rather just run around screaming, and repeating anything they are told. Why should the have to take the time to inform themselves?
PvP on Sisi is quite different in many ways now, and people don't like change as a rule, but it is pretty darn good.
