Yo \o/

Just wanted to ask about skill learning in EvE. Not sure if this is right topics for that. I'm just wondering if I could or could not train skill while my account is offline. e.g. I got 34 days skill to learn and I add that skill to train before my account goes offline, does the skill training or not while my account if offline ?

Offline or not subscribed?

If you mean offline as in logged out - yes.

If you mean unsubscribed and not paid for - I believe the answer is no.

Skills stop training when your account goes inactive.

As far as I remember, your skills only carry on training for 2 or 3 downtimes after your account subscription expires. As for long term training without subscription, it was removed a few years back. Ghost training as it was known was removed.

I see the CSM proposed reinstating it[/url] back in 2008 Lol But no, from all results I can find it was removed and your training stops when you stop paying. I can't find anything to indicate it carries on for a few downtimes afterwards as suggested earlier; but I've not test this.

Edit:

Two references:
