Isn't people thinking they are ok the main problem created by that parenting style? Blink

I'm more okay than I think I am. My therapist tells me so.

There was also a parenting movement in the 1990s that was all about telling kids how special and smart they are, even if the kid is found playing with their own poop. This, they told, was important because if they didn't, the kid will grow up to be the next school shooter or have (OMG Horror of Horrors!!!) "a low self esteem". (I got the vapors typing that).



The 90's? This **** is still going on today, unfortunately.

Snipped the rest of your outstanding post.

I was born in 1990. I was told I was smart and special. I turned out mostly okay, I think. :P


I was born in 1972, and I spent 10 years in a hellpit of drink and depression.

Still, these things happen.

People have had plenty of time to train the skills that will be needed to take advantage of the changes, enough time to train them several times over.

For anyone that is new and won't have time it's just tough luck, but the changes have to be brought in sometime.

So really I think it's just the op trying it on.

What I do not understand is that people that people that trained for the Orca will not get refunded all the SP they needed to get the Orca under the old requirements - compared to the new.

None of those skills are being removed from the game so there's no reason to refund the SP.

No, your rights end in optimal+2*falloff

The only reason I trained those skills was because it was necessary to fly the Orca. Now CCP tells me that all those skills I trained are no longer needed for the Orca. Skills I will never use. They were a waste of time. Should I not be compensated for those skills? CCP changed the requirements - not me. Why should I be penalized because CCP decides to make a change? Explain please.

I would love to get involved, but you're having too much fun. Besides, I know know comedic non sequiturs. e.g.

My dog's got no nose.

How does he smell?

Their game. Their rules.

Also, please search forum for epic Orca threadnaught, where this is discussed in (mind numbing) detail.

How are they a waste of time? You didn't use them when you trained them to fly an Orca. You don't use them now. You won't use them after the patch. You trained them to get what you wanted when you wanted them, and now you have it. So what's to complain about?

What did I lose? 32 days of SP skill training - skills that I do not need any longer. That is over a month of game time.

They were a waste of time because CCP now deems them not necessary to fly an Orca - wasted 32 days of training for what? Skills I will never use. It is not like I wanted to train them - it was required because CCP said it was. Now they tell me - too bad - you wasted 32 days of game time training skills you'll never use in the future. That is fair to you?
