Dearest CCP!
Maybe it's time to overhaul you skillpoint system.
1 It would be better if you make a sp generation mechanism ,after this skill points are spended via attributes that character have
in his brain via coefficents.You can get rid off skill que(it was a great solution ,but today we should have some evolution changes)
2 nd it would be awesome if you can buy book remotly. It"s FUTURE why we can't buy via inter... golo... dunno net a books or courses.It makes no sense

Pros
No way of forgetting to switch skill learning
Your char becomes smth like wine .More age more tasty.
You shouldn't get to high sec to buy books
Cons
Safer for users so no suicide ganks after books (bad for piracy )
No more missed learning hours (bad for CCP)

1.) If you can "store" SP, it allows you to put off "what to train" decisions until you develop a need for that skill. This has a very negative impact by allowing people to store SP until the new FOTM comes out, and insta-training into it. Also, if the SP gained is static, but is only "modified" when being applied to a skill based on the current attributes you have, you essentially eliminate the need for having attribute implants during 99% of your play time... Example: I decide it's time to train Command Ships 5, so I clone hop to my +5 implanted clone and then apply the SP, and then clone hop away to do PvP the rest of the month.

2.) Access to skillbooks is an important consideration for living "away" from empire (Nullsec, WH space), and having to make a trip to highsec to access these skillbooks adds risk to players that need them transported. Furthermore, there is a portion of the market that thrives by making skillbooks accessible at market hubs, and your change would undermine this viable market community.

Isn't this just Dust's skill mechanic pasted into EVE?

Current skill system mechanics are fine. It allows you to try out modules and ships with enough time so that the next time you train your next "better" skills you'll be up to the challenge with your next bigger ship. Contrary to other silly stupid wow/cod/bf3 games as you can use the best frigging gun in the world and be rambo...here it doesnt work that way. It needs time...and lots of it to become better with your ship and equipement... use that time efficiently.

It's Perpetuum's sp mechanics, they copied Eve's sp mechanics, and improved upon it. CCP copied it back because it's a good idea, but didn't upgrade Eve's for... whatever reason.
