It doesnt make sense

You brains hardwiring configuration doesnt allow you to inject any skill which you do not meet the previous requirements


So this would be something non sensical to have. Doesnt fit into the lore.

You think urself lucky, there never used to be a skill q, people HAD to set an Alarm clock to change there skills around. Just put something else in to train first, and then come back to the skill you want when you can log in.

Because we just got through the awesome change where the prerequisite test was performed on injection rather than training. This is what allowed them to do the whole tiercide and skill rebalance without screwing up what people could and could not train or fly.

The current rule is simple: if you have it injected, you can train it. It no longer matters what your other skills look like or if you've been mass-ganked back to 900k SP or if the DB forgot all numbers larger than 10 — injected = trainable; checking for prereqs is a one-time thing and you've passed that test, it's done for good. If you want to be allowed to inject skills without being able to train them, they have to uproot that whole system and create something that is probably a lot less robust and elegant in its design.

Skill books are being carted around all the time, and reducing the reasons and opportunities to lose them is a bad thing.

2. Be respectful toward others at all times.

The purpose of the EVE Online forums is to provide a platform for exchange of ideas, and a venue for the discussion of EVE Online. Occasionally there will be conflicts that arise when people voice opinions. Forum users are expected to be courteous when disagreeing with others.

4. Personal attacks are prohibited.

Commonly known as flaming, personal attacks are posts that are designed to personally berate or insult another forum user. Posts of this nature are not beneficial to the community spirit that CCP promote and as such they will not be tolerated.

5. Trolling is prohibited.

Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote.

12. Spamming is prohibited.

Spam is defined as the repetitive posting of the same topic or nonsensical post that has no substance and is often designed to annoy other forum users. This can include the words “first”, “go back to [insert other game name]” and other such posts that contribute no value to forum discussion. Spamming also includes the posting of ASCII art within a forum post.

22. Post constructively.

Negative feedback can be very useful to further improve EVE Online provided that it is presented in a civil and factual manner. All users are encouraged to honestly express their feelings regarding EVE Online and how it can be improved. Posts that are non-constructive, insulting or in breach of the rules will be deleted regardless of how valid the ideas behind them may be. Users are also reminded that posting with a lack of content also constitutes non-constructive posting.

26. Off-topic posting is prohibited.

Off-topic posting is permitted within reason, as sometimes a single comment may color or lighten the tone of discussion. However, excessive posting of off-topic remarks in an attempt to derail a thread may result in the thread being locked, or a forum warning being issued.

Well, fun fact is that EVE characters do not have brains as they are numbers in a database. Nonsensical to argue otherwise.

But try applying that logic on real life people for a moment and you will see something really silly. You wouldn't be allowed to consume knowledge (be taught / learn) if you do not fulfill the criteria that leads to that specific knowledge, i.e. high-level math before you learn programming.

The current design of learning skills in EVE is nothing but a level requirement of sorts.
