There's no point in discussing the whole matter, factually.
Except for you, of course, because you believe expressing your opinion is somehow relevant to a greater good.

Oh btw ... why should something be reimbursed, when there is nothing lost ?

CCP does plan for a reimbursement and they plan to give the players the Mining Barge V skill as if they had willingly trained for mining barges. Reallocating / moving skill points around then does not add anything either other than the right to revisit an old decision.

So you may want to rethink your logic behind your argument here.

WTF are you talking about? They're not doing anything of the sort.

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

I guess I don't really need to ask why you're saying something blatantly untrue. I suppose your reasons for doing so are pretty clear.

Anyhow ...

Regarding the significant part of this thread, Whitehound would probably "field" a single "civilian gatling gun"
and then pretend he made the "ship" explode all over the place.

While "I wasn't talking to you" is a response, it was not an answer to Tippia's question. You know what he means.

…which is why they're not doing that unless those decisions have made you spend time on something that no longer exists or serves any purpose because it — or the underlying mechanic — has been removed. After all, changing old decisions isn't something this game is really about.

Sure you did. You just didn't answer the question: why on earth should anyone be reimbursed when they haven't lost anything?

If you feel Tippia's question was of any importance, which I do not, then please feel free to answer it.

So you don't think they should be reimbursed, then. Well good, again. That's twice you've come to that conclusion. Just once more and we'll hold you to it. Blink

Rhetoric: a politician's best friend. Also, coincidentally, a salesperson's best friend.

You seem to be confused by my use of the word "reimbursement". Well, I am not talking about a reimbursement in the sense of a direct of skill point exchange, which given the nature of the problem seems a mistake easily made, but I am referring to CCP's decision to undo the burden for new players, that has been the Orca training, but not to undo it for older players.

In other words, you're discussing a reimbursement of SP that still are as useful as ever.

That rather raises the question of why on earth should anyone be reimbursed when they haven't lost anything?

By the way…
