What could be done about this terrible thing CCP has done to us and the real time we have spent in research, and is
JUST LIKE SKILLS & ANYONE... who has done any amount of research, know's it takes for ever and for CCP to just take that time from us. Is simply not right. As with SKILLS where CCP refunds points when they remove a skill, the same should be for research as both have taken REAL TIME TRAINING/RESEARCHING.

What could be done, Is CCP instead of giving the research of so many players the big middle finger and all the TIME we have spent doing research and that is quite a lot for myslef as well as many others.

--==JUST LIKE SKILLS==--
"where points are given to players who spent TIME to train SKILLS, unallocated for the player to allocate where he sees fit when a skill is removed from the game"

So should be the TIME players have put into RESEARCH be give to players to allocate as they see fit to NEW and UNRESEARCHED or partially researched blueprints" that would be a way of GIVING PLAYERS OUR TIME BACK just like with SKILLS "REAL TIME FOR REAL TIME"

P.S.
LOVE, ME Pirate

P.S.S

I love this game, Please put more thought into how changes effect your players. you wonder why more and more people are starting to leave eve online. Im COOL with change as long as my REAL TIME that I've put in is not TAKEN AWAY.

If only CCP had given us several weeks of warning so we could plan ahead & not lose out.

I am not entirely sure where you going with this OP. AFter a quick glance a the upcoming patch (dev blog), and the proposed changes from the linked blog there for research......

What are you losing?
Is there a skill being taken away?
From what i saw it seems the required skills for certain items to be researched, copied, invention etc are just being juggled around....

If you have not basically researched some skills to cover these changes....then i guess you should start instead of whining about it. A true researcher or Industiral person for that matter would make sure they got all the skills....not just the ones they need for what they wish to build.

I am referring to the time spent on research "several YEARS put into a SINGLE BPO for material and time effiency and the TIME taken to research those BPO's and now they have been backdated to only a couple months worth of research done on them. myself as well as many others who have done the same are having our REAL TIME taken away.

What real time is being lost? The few seconds it took to add the BPO to a research queue before heading off to do something else in game?

The only way you lost real time is if you sat and watched the timer on your BPO research count down instead of having a life.

IF you spent years already having your stuff maxed out....then ok good. What are you complaining about....that those that havent can now do the same? Sheesh. HTFU and STFU will ya.
