This is usually followed by some personal attacks, something about speccing out of FotM, something about fear of newbies, and general name-calling. So I'm here to clear up the confusion and shut down a few rather virulent badposters.
If we give a respec, Imagine we have Alex. Alex spent his SP willy-nilly, just playing and testing. He didn't have a plan in mind, so if he gets a respec he can start over, plan accordingly, and put points into his favored playstyle. It's all good... for Alex.
In case you didn't get the hint, Alex is players who want respecs.
Then after the respec, we have Bob. Bob spent his SP wisely, making each choice count. He has all his points placed in carefully thought arrangements, and doesn't regret a single level. When he puts his points in again, he puts them back in the exact same place. His game hasn't changed at all, and he is upset that the game rewarded Alex, who screwed up his SP, and snubbed him.
In case you didn't get the hint, Bob is everyone else.
The Alex's of the game refuse to see things from the point of view of the Bob's. Those of us who had a plan get nothing for it, and feel like all our work was for naught.
A simple solution would be to give some goodies out along with the respec, or make it a choice between goodies and respec. The former would probably be easier on CCP, but either would give the Bob's something instead of just telling them to sod off. TL;DR
no personal attacks here.
for the skim that i did over one part of this, bob is very selfish.
all that the respec did was help other people, but because he didn't get something, he's upset. bob is very immature.
Tell me, how exactly DOES a biscuit gain Valor?

That means everyone else will spec into stuff that kills armour...my GalAssault will not be pleased. don't you get it. no they won't. because there might be an increase in gallente logis, people are ruining the game for the people who don't stand a chance to the gallente logis already here.

I'm so sorry that biscuits are not smart enough to read a small passage of text. You shouldn't even bother to comment if you won't read, you'll make yourself look like a fool. Look at this from Bob's point of view. Maybe I should glitz it up a bit. Bob did nothing wrong. He did everything well, didn't have a single regret. Alex feels like he screwed up. God decides to 'fix' Alex with a huge miracle, but completely ignores Bob, who is right there. Bob doesn't get a get-out-of-screwup free card. Bob doesn't need one. Alex did, but Alex felt he needed one. See what I mean yet? No one NEEDS a respec. NO ONE. The Alex players only WANT one, but are projecting their want on everyone as if it were a need. If CCP caves and gives the Alex players this boon, they get what they've always wanted, a hugely unlikely gift from the gods of New Eden. Bob gets NOTHING. Bob isn't immature, the very nature of the universe bent over backwards to satisfy Alex, but told Bob to screw off? Get it now? what ever happened to no personal attacks? being too lazy read it and not being smart enough are two entirely different things.
i looked at it from bob's point of view. doesn't change that fact that he's a selfish little whiner who is jealous because "God gave someone else a miracle" and he didn't get one. he should be happy for the person who got a second chance, not wish no miracle at all upon him.
if you ask me, that's not a very foolish way of thinking.
