Option to delete skills

Skill list is a part of UI, skills are data.

Call me pedantic if you want but it doesn't change the fact that you are supporting an idea for useless feature that won't make Eve any easier to comprehend by newbies nor will make any aspect of gameplay better for all of us.

They're just in the way, they clutter the interface, which is cluttered enough.



How much of your time in game is spent looking at skills?

Why don't you really just say you want a cheeper clone.

So you delete a skill, but somewhere down the line you figure out that you want to do something different than you do now. And the skill you deleted is one of the prerequiered skills do do this. What then? Do you plan on then buying the skillbook again and train it from scratch?

yeah, why not. What is the problem with this?
If you dont want this risk, just dont delete any of your skills, just for the case you would need them one day.

At the same time, I'm EXTREMELY paranoid that if a hacker hacks your account, deleting a character's skillset would be an evil, evil, evil way to **** them beyond just taking their stuff...


if your account is evidently hacked, CCP would return your stuff, so they could bring back skills in exactly the same way.

Silliest thing I ever heard. Delete skills. Like saying, "Gee, I can't afford to drive right now, if only I could unlearn those pesky driving lessons, then maybe I could free up some brain matter to devote to cycling..."

Given that medical clone costs go up with skill point total and each of us has three characters I can actually see a point to someone reasonably deciding to trim some skills off their PvP alt that they think are not needed (like mining, for instance).

That said, I still don't think this is a practical idea since it would be guaranteed to add to the GM's workload.

Given CCP's track record on deleting things and UI setup, they most likely would place this in such a way that many people will accidentally delete skill when they meant to do something else.

oh brother... this is not in any way an important feature request.

  - remove the cloaked from local; free intel is the real problem, not  "afk" cloaking -

I'd like to be able to refund my skills for 50% SP, I'd finally put those industry skills to use.
