I think Cruisers need some love, they are way to slow and sluggish, i never fly cruisers as i may aswell fly a battleship, coz frigates, i get uber agility and speed, so thats why i fly frigs, i fly battleships as they are heavily armored and powerfull, but cruisers feel to me like Weak battleships, when im flying a cruiser, i feel like i have NO benefit to flying it, like i would with a frigate and battleship!
If you get what im trying to say here
Frigates = Fast and manouverable
Battleships = Slow and sluggish, yet awesome power
Cruisers = Slow and sluggish and youd rather fly a frigate....

I agree. Cruisers are Jack-of-all-Trades and master of none.
About all they are good for is agent missions in some cases and to use to mine yourself into a battleship or inty.
Otherwise, as mentioned, there really is little reason to fly one as a battleship or frig will be a better fit more often than not.
Battlecruisers/destroyers may change that but of course the current crop of cruisers will still stink on the whole.

Yeah, no reason to be in a cruiser. I think cruisers should be twice as fast as battleships and frigates twice as fast as cruisers. That would make both frigs and cruisers more usefull without having to change any other balancing.

WOULD be nice... but then they'd have to remodify the whole tracking formula... as well as take mwd's from frigates and make cruiser ones more demanding powergrid wise.

Dont know what your problem is peepz, i fly a Thorax often, and its pretty speedy. Steady speed (210m/s when in gang) and turning, or dropping in to warp doesnt take that long. I love it.
What can I say ? Skillz !

Perhaps a lil base speed, but much rather see a hp boost.
Thing is, gotta be careful or the elite versions will be insanely powerful. A Blaster thorax CAN kill a bship 1v1 now (yes a guy in our corp did it and we were all rofl). Now, that's not to say cruisers don't need love, they do.... but I hope ccp uses a lil foresight.
Evolution..... Just when you thought you were winning.

It's all relative. Cruisers aren't hauler/battleship slow but they are so slow as to not defeat tracking as completely as a frig can (which allows a frig to do its thing rather than suffer instadeath like they once did).
Thorax is definitely an overpowered ship compared to other cruisers in EVE. Although rather than seeing the Thorax nerfed it would be nice to see other cruisers brought up to a Rax level in PvP ability (roughly).

I could agree with about a 30ms or so boost to all cruiser speeds. Especially on the ones that are supposed to be faster. But when and if they ever get off their rears and put in the missing second bonus on cruisers, that should help them buttloads. Minmater cruiser will be uber fast, or hit really hard.

The latest CSM mentioned that the second bonus to cruisers wasn't far off being implemented. There was a great thread some months ago that had everyone talking about what they'd like the second bonus to be.
Could we get some indication of what the proposed bonuses are being tested?
