I've been RPing since mid-2003, and I really don't feel any need to delete those Caldari ship skills I have despite taking an oath to never fly anything that wasn't Amarrian in 2003.

I'd much rather the devs spent their time fixing problems that actually exist.


Ok [retracted dildo comment], irrelevant, you aren't even a real RPer or you wouldn't try to interfere with another's RP.

And as if it would take the dev's any amount of time at all to add a delete button. Don't let them trick you into thinking that the loot all button took 10 years, even though it did, it shouldn't have.

edit: redactions


I didn't think I would be on Rodj's side ever, but I guess I got to do something new today. I don't begrudge my own training of Amarr battleships, even though I do not see any point in my future where I will want to fly them. Maybe I'll fly a smartbomb Armageddon sometime. That was my choice and I am living with it.

As a pure Galentee combat pilot in the EVE universe, why do I have mining skills, why do I have Minmatar ship skills, why do I have shield skills?


Because you trained them. Also shield fits are nice on Gallente ships.

Let's compare it to a young girl dating a boy from a different caste, or race. At the time she thought it would be a good idea. But then she grew up and was ashamed of it and hated it about herself. To bad, she can't change it, it's real life, she has to live with it forever.


Choices have consequences. To me it sounds like you re-specced into another profession, and now don't feel like paying the increased clone costs due to the fact of having skills in your original profession, too. If so, learn to make the best of knowing how to do multiple things.

If this is about OCD and about "wanting to forget your past", deal with it. You're supporting a RP argument with "this is a game so it shouldn't be so realistic". RP is about immersing yourself in a fictional world as if it was real. Just as IRL you would have to deal with memories of a bad relationship marring the rest of your life, or more appropriately, deal with the fact that everything you learned in your classical education is practically useless, in Eve you have to deal with having done and learned things that you can't erase from your history.

Some things are irreversible. Skills, employment history, kills and deaths, and last but not least, bad posts on the forums.

I used to be OCD about my skill sheet. I had laser skills and spaceship command skills I never thought I would use. I am glad I have them now. I even trained Salvage Drone Operation when I got it from a mission years ago, and there are no Salvage Drones as far as I know. I don't know what changed in my brain about that, but now I am not OCD about my skill sheet and will train any skill that I am able to train.

if you remove skills you should get a metal plate on your head as remainder for the sucked out brain tissue.

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

And with an un-upgraded clone. That'll take care of unwanted SP.
