Seriously? CCP Remnant said shortly in the same thread that the Minmatar scout would be the exception; it keeps the sidearm, but doesn't gain an equipment. Also base melee damage has been increased.
Stop spreading fear when there is no need to fear.

DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS THREAD, IT IS MISINFORMATION Hehe... go ahead and try it out then, with galante scout as the fastest and only one equipment then how is it going to survive?
What are you even talking about?
I never said the Minmatar scout was as good or as viable as the Gallente one, only that the information you were spreading about the Minmatar scout losing its sidearm slot is incorrect. I suggest rereading my post if you did not understand, and CCP Remnant's post.
EDIT: Oh, I see you edited your original post, and removed the misinformed freakout about losing your sidearm slot. Instead of admitting your mistake, you just edit to try to cover it it. I see how it.

Out scoring us due to 2 equipment slots
As for base melee... who cares?? the whole point of the Minja is Nova Knives
So other scouts will have an easier time avoiding scanners, and make easier WP with 2 equipment
Chances are they are going to release a scout with better stats, 2 equipment and try convince us
that because of no side-arm that they are balanced....
The Minja will still be the behind enemy lines killer...
They are just going to make it easier for the other 3 races to do our job...
The base melee increase was needed. Currently a level 5 Minmatar scout's melee is still less than than a medium's, this base melee buff fixes that. Yes the point of the Minmatar scout right now is basically knifing, but the melee damage allows you to still be effective at brawling if you decide to use a different sidearm instead.
It should also be noted that the scouts will have base profile signature lowered from 45 (I think) to around 35 according to Remnant's approximation. I don't see how other scouts would have an easier time avoiding scanners since none of them seem like they're getting dampening bonuses, if you mean the lack of low slots, then the Caldari one will likely have very little low slots (Caldari are all about the high slots) so you won't be alone in that boat.
Personally I find the Minmatar scout a very badly designed because the bonus to knives and melee makes it so niche. It should have something more generally useful, what I would do would be to give it a 5% hacking speed per level, or 10% biotic module efficacy per level (fits with their role in physicality).
I would also create a new specialization for the role of knifing.

I never claimed there was no need for concern, only that what the OP was complaining about before editing his post (removal of the Minmatar scout's sidearm) was false information, which it is. Don't put words in my mouth.
I have issues with the Minmatar scout, which I covered in post 21.
