No matter how much you beg or how many signatures you get, they will never remove an item that they spent enough production time and money on to push into the game, that's just stupid.

Just like they never did with the Surya or Sagaris! Which were essentially the same thing as Madrugars and Gunnlogis with different stats. True. But they did spend months buffing and nerfing them. Which did cost time and money. But then they removed them because they couldn't balance them. Remember Skirmish 1.0? The map and the installions it had? CCP found the map too unbalanced. So they removed it. Along with turrets. CCP can't balance the Flaylock. It's a single sidearm that's hardly used. The minmatar already have the SMG as their racial sidearm. I don't think it's beyond simply removing.
Specialty tanks were simple value changes as a different texture, which takes essentially no time at all if your skinning system is done properly
Time buffing and nerfing? Well I think there was only 1 pass on them, but the time needed to alter numerical values is far less than the time for conceptual design, modeling, skinning, shading, programming, balancing, and initial testing. Why do you claim its unbalanceable? And why do you claim its so useless? I use it quite frequently on my alt and with great success. Would you rather just toss is away because you don't like it anymore? Don't give up so easily.
And you're right, it is a Minmatar sidearm, specifically the Minmatar pistol. Much like the Caldari are getting both a pistol and an SMG in the next release.
And the reason Skirmish 1.0 was removed was because there was a fundamental shift in how they wanted that game mode to operate which required it to be replaced. You're asking to remove an asset solely because it's not used very much and is apparently impossible to fix, in your opinion.

Skirmish 1.0 was removed because it caused the catastrophic memory leaks that made your console lock up every 2-3 matches if you didn't do a pre-emptive re-log every battle or 2 ... and that was with the 5 minute load times aswell :-(
Those were dark times....dark times indeed.

Forum Logic:
I don't use this weapon and I don't see a lot of other people using it, so take it out of the game because its presence (that I don't see) is upsetting.
