Which is why I've always been a supporter of a slow and steady skill reallocation system, that gives everyone 1 buyback point per week of active play. That buyback point can be saved for as long as you like, and they stack. When selecting any skill that you have ranks in, another option will be present that says "Buyback". Clicking on that brings you to the buyback interface, which allows you to spend buyback points equal to or less than the total amount of SP in said skill.
Buying back X ranks takes X buyback points, which are gone forever once used. Any SP invested in said skill is returned to the players SP pool equal to the amount of SP invested in X removed ranks, from the top down, and the skill ranks are reversed. The skill still remains unlocked, and you are thusly not refunded for you skill book. |

That or they could capitalize off it like I've suggested
Reallocation AUR item
For as long as it's active you select a skill to drain and every SP you gain takes an SP out of that skill and into your unallocated pool.
Or simply every SP you gain raises a separate counter like you said for "movable" points
At which point if you have enough you can De-level a skill, transferring those SP to your unallocated pool again.

This SP Buyback System seems like it will be "Pushed back" to Soon(TM) or never in the Road map. |

So basically you can't "Pay to respec"
But you can "Pay to play to respec" Make em work for it
Will slow down and prevent any significant FOTM hopping. Seems fair at that rate |

Unfortunately I'm sure CCP will go with an AUR version.
Actually.
You could still have my system, and then just sell buyback tokens for X amount of AUR with a limit of X amount of tokens per X amount of time |

Sounds like a neural-remap... Which they have in EvE. But I'm still against a full respec. |

I am for anything that promotes flexibility and longlivity for new players.

there is no real full respec. majority of the SP will always go into core skills and you will most likely just try another suit/weapon. that is not a full respec but reallocating points. |

Just for the record, since you used my comment from another thread. I'm against any form of respec, including aurum based, play to respec etc.
The only time SP should be returned to a player is if CCP make drastic changes to the skill tree, such as the upcoming vehicle changes. That would be an SP reimbursement. |
