Among the many stupid things i do every day in Eve i get podded..i happened to forget to upgrade my clone one time and suffered a lose of a lvl 5 skill.

Now i had a ship in my pos that reguired that lvl 5 skill and out of curiousity i attempted to board it - it worked !

I have flown the ship around wormhole and can't see any difference.

Is there an explanation for this or is the forum moderator going to yank my ship out from under me ?

Or did i only think i lost the lvl 5 skill - i think i had it

strange ... I personally hate the clones and sp loss, I am not saying it shouldn't be there, but I dislike it all the same.

Im pretty sure I win the stupid pod stories, maybe

I had gotten podded back to my station but I remembered all my stuff was ages away so I set that station as my medical station and undocked and set the self destruct. When I had died I noticed I had forgotten to update my clone so I lost some skill, I still dont know which one

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.

There was an idea to remove the idea of recloning every death and only having to upgrade once your SP reached a level to prevent skill loss.

Because I suspect more often than not that losing a V skill often leads to people leaving the game. The age of it being an effective isk sink are far over.

I imagine that sometimes the skill you lost was merely the prerequisite to TRAIN another skill that allows you to fly the ship.

The ship itself might not directly require the skill you lost - but at level V, it enables you to train another skill that IS required to fly the ship.
