Originally by: Symlin Raahn Edited by: Symlin Raahn on 15/12/2010 22:16:35 I don't mind CCP getting rid of the Learning Skills.
For those of us that have (had) characters with all Learning Skills at level V, I don't think it is fair how it was done, nor how we supposedly are being "reimbursed."
At this exact point in time (after the update), the skill I am training would have taken me 7 days, 47 minutes to finish before the Learning Skill books removal. With the change it will now take me 7 days, 6 hours, and 21 minutes to finish
-- an additional 5 hours and 34 minutes.
That sucks!
It sucks even more that this increased learning time is going to be the case for me for all my training in the future.
CCP says I am being 'reimbursed' for the actual skill points in Learning Skills. True. But that is NOT a total of what those points truly cost me and what I have invested in them.
I am NOT being reimbursed minute for minute for the time it took me to learn all the Learning Skills to level V. (These learning sills were not learned at a rate comparable to having all learning at level V, because that is what was training. I am not being reimbursed for that time spent training them, even though I am getting the points.)
I am not being reimbursed for the cost of the skill books. (CCP has come up with some BS about me getting use out of the books and dismissed this point out of hand.)
I am not being reimbursed for the game time it took me to earn the isk to buy the Learning Skill books -- mining hours on end, etc. If I would have spent that time earning the isk, and the isk itself on other books, I would still have the books. Right? To me, it seems the Learning Skill books have almost been stolen from me.
CCP. If you make changes like this, at least don't screw some of your customers.
I would bet most of your customers with all learning at level V are/were some of your loyalist customers, and you have, therefore, found a way to take advantage of that loyalty.
You certainly did not reward that loyalty.
I am very disappointed.

I concur! It seems CCP just miscalculated how many attributes we need reimbursed.. Looking at my old stats (39.6, 33, 31.9, 34.1, 38.3) compared to now (39, 33, 31, 34, 38), it seems they added it all up correctly.. but they rounded DOWN to the nearest whole attribute. If they'd rounded up, we'd all be better off.
just my 2 isk.
