No.

If you want to build a "racially pure" character then you do it from the start and you stick to it. You trained the skills, you live with them Straight

Quite apart from anything else, "racially pure" characters are significantly more valuable than "impure" characters and the reason is because they are RARER.

Start again if it bothers you that much.

Honestly, the more SP you grow into the less of a visual impact that 500k SP in Industry will affect you. Once you have 40-50 million SP in spaceship command, you won't even see Industry anymore.

Need stuff moved? Push Industries will handle it. Serving highsec, lowsec and nullsec - and we do it faster and more reliably than anyone else. Ingame channel: PUSHX

If you just want to remove the skills without refund, simply to assuage your OCD, then fine.
Getting SP back? Not a chance.

In this case it is CDO, the condition is so severe they have to say it in alphabetical order.

No matter how much I want to I will never scrape 6 years of EVE from my brain.

If asked about why you trained mining skills, tell people you were training to be bait.

I have some Caldari ship skills that I've not used in over eight years, and I will probably never use them again.

Do I want to get rid of them? Not really.

I'd much rather the devs used their time to code something that was actually useful.

Any PVP corp with that attitude will just see perfectly good pilots going to their rivals because they think that if you didn't set out to do PVP in the first week of your Eve career, you clearly aren't as awesome as they are.

Or, the truth:

I tried mining, found out it sucks, still have the skills.

My corp did a lot of mining stuff and I could afk mine while watching movies.

I lived in a wormhole where mining can actually be somewhat profitable if you can stand it.

There was a lot of time when I could be on Eve but not really pay attention to it all the time, so I trained some mining skills to afk mine and make extra isk.

Follow any of those with "got a problem with that?" and you're fine.

Not a troll. I guess I have OCD. I just do not like seeing unused skills on my skillsheets and would have liked an option to remove some. If that takes a lot of time to code then forget it. If it was something simple and other were interested (which it seems most would rather qq) then I would have liked to see something implemented.

My biggest concern asking this was accidental skill deletions and the petitions that would ensue. (Which nobody brought up)

Yes CCP is loaded with a laundry list of things to do. Yes they are going in the right direction again. If you look at any expansion notes I'm sure most of you only cared about a handful of changes out of a thousand. I just wanted one of the next thousand to have that ability.

Flame away...

There are some skills I might want to erase without any refund - e.g. I have afterburner V on one of my accounts, yet for obvious reasons I'd want it lower (hell - I'd even invest the same time it took to train the skill to just 'untrain' it).

If I had TSM V on any of my accounts, I'd remove that too as it only increases JC costs (luckily, I don't have it).

However, It was my improper planning at the time - I made the mistake, so I have to deal with the consequences. Eve used to be a game where decisions used to have an impact and I liked that fact.
Reoccuring remaps are terrible already, so I'd rather deal with my mistake than seeing eve watered down further and further.

Alternatively, you could join corps without pretentious assholes.

This is pretty much it, that's what this is about.

By the way, since we're already talking, do you want to buy a rifter? I've got the cheapest rifters in Metropolis. If you can find a cheaper rifter, buy it!
