Well, maybe if you gave your OP a bit of context and actually discussed the topic you decided on, it would be so drivel-like.

Actually the article is just more Null tears about making their lives even easier so no I did not quote it. As I said not really worth the read.
Strange that you spent so much time on it, then.
Anyway, so what is this “case for removing learning implants” of yours?

Which one, then?

I will try to find it for you as I cannot remember the title at the moment. I read a lot of articles.

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

as for our site being a "GSF/CFC mouthpiece" we've had pieces on nerfing local, keeping/removing off-grid boosting, and news articles on engagements we've lost, won and were not involved in at all

however if you're going to complain about the article being "opinionated" when it's blatantly titled as an opinion piece, I don't know what to say!

eh, they just want to add +10 learning implants, saying how long it takes to lvl for capitals and supers. They are flying in null sec, so they feel that they should be flying these ships, and get them faster then most pilots. I suppose its fair if you think about it.

Oh I almost missed it.

Why would you call a site that if you did not want people to think it was your mouth piece?

Did you see the words "The Case for" in the article title? And the category it was under?

If you remove the learning implants then would you suggest giving everyone a boost to their base attributes by 4-5 points to make up for the lack of implant bonus?

No I believe you were doing the crying about implants and how unfair it is that Null PvP pilots don't want to use them.

That'd be the inevitable conclusion, yes. The article is not a proposal for their removal, but an argument against their continued existence in the game.

Oh so every time I see "a case for" it is just an opinion and there for has no relevance and should just be ignored because it is just someones opinion.

Hell I always thought that when some one put a case forward it was a set of reasonable arguments or factual statements proving a point. My mistake.

On mistake no I was mistaken the article did have a kill board attached. So my bad on that might have just been an opinion by me so therefore not worth complaint.

So any gain for those people who do not die often or do not choose to PvP would be lost.

ITT: opinion pieces can't also have reasonable arguments or factual statements proving a point.

The more you know.

Removing learning implants certainly would remove a barrier to null sec. I don't know how many times I've been reluctant to jump out somewhere because it was going to slow my skill progression. Well, I do know - it's every time.

why are you so intent on punishing those who aren't as risk averse in their gameplay as you are?

Maybe I should read your article then. I agree it would be good to remove them.

The price of my implants has always been in the back of my mind when I fly around lowsec and null. It stops me from getting into fights with the people there. I don't mind the cost of clones.
