Exactly. No-one is asking for hand-holding, just a more obvious warning. I think the pop-up option when buying would work best, and benefit CCP and noobies! :)

The warning is already there though...

In EVE, knowledge is power. Someone with more knowledge and experience than you will have that competitive advantage over you, and that's the way it works. Hence the lack of in-game information from CCP on all the various aspects of EVE, plus it would take way too long to document. Thankfully the game being out for as long as it has, has resulted in various player-made guides and resources for everything!

I wouldn't fancy having a pop up saying "You don't have skills to use that, are you sure you want to purchase it?" everytime I made a purchase on my trading alt.

Anyway, looking at your posts, it seems EVE isn't really the game for you if the minor issue of not being able to fly a basic hauler on trial account is enough to turn you off. I don't mean that in a bad way, just the nature of the game and its compatibility with certain types of personalities/temperaments. Good luck whatever you do.
