This is why you don't skill into broken ****.
I thought everyone learned this lesson the last time, when CCP took back the extra isk we weren't supposed to have, thus making the idiots that spent it go into the negative.

Meh, now I'm at -800K SP. Doesn't bother me, I've reached my endgame, at this point I'd just be hoarding SP and not spending it anyway.
I could list the ways how we Amarr are better than you, but your lesser mind wouldn't comprehend it.

I think you forget that those guys who spent all that isk got a refund since they cried so much, I expect the same to happen again unfortunately

I assume most people don't pay much attention to the actual numbers. I think they just look at the Levels unlocked.
But, we're also talking about people that went Amarr Scout, so....

The problem is that it's CCP's error, not ours. hen things like this happen in Eve, such as servers being down for a full day because of DDoS or what have you, they refund missed SP for that day. This should have been a "Whoops, our bad" and just changed the multiplier. Players are being punished for their mistake, and that's my issue with it.
Best PVE idea I've seen.

I just wait they would of waited another day to fix it, I was about to get advanced sentinels to add to my list. Oh well, I'm not worried about it. I have my proto commandos and proto scouts and all my weapons and core skills maxed so I'll be fine until I pay off this SP loan. The real issue will be for the lower SP players who don't have many skills leveled up and now have to pay off their debt.

This situation I've underlined is the result of outside action and CCP not being able to keep up the server because of it.
The situation in the OP is due to people being stupid and not paying attention.
See the difference here?

I'd gladly be in the position these people are in.
Having skills right now for which you'd only have the SP for in a month is one hell of a deal.
Complaining about it is insane.

This is just bad management on CCPs part and nothing more.
The skill should have been refunded, period. CCP in classic fashion, punishing players for their own shortcomings.

See the difference here? Expecting every player to realize that CCP tends to fail really hard when they patch things is silly. CCP is a business that is hoping to make money, punishing your customers for your OWN mistakes isn't exactly classy.

They're only stupid if they skilled into it thinking they'd try it out and get refunded after. If they DID want the suit, then they get early access, which isn't a bad deal at all. |

Why is everyone saying people are being punished?
If this is punishment, i'll have some of that too. I was able to skill up Caldari Scout just 1 level. AFAIK, the multiplier was correct. If i had chosen Amarr Scout, i would be able to level up to proto.
These people have the huge advantage of skilling into something roughly a month before anyone else.
Punishment?!?! Really?!

It's like a credit card - we all brought something that we didn't have the money for to afford and now we're in debt, the difference is collections isn't coming after us.

There's no reason to refund the sp, period. These people spent their SP in the suit they wanted. If they wanted proto Amarr scout, then success! They have those suits available now. If they didn't, and they were trying to scam the system, then good that they're being penalized. Either way, there's no issue, and certainly it shouldn't be refunded or given to them at half price.

lololol and then you get those people who don't read and come onto the forums posting threads about why their SP's are missing or in the negative.
YOU HAVE BEEN SCANNED!!!

they should have to keep the negative sp, and dig they're way out of the hole, as if they were going to skill into the proto suit.
it's not rocket science to look at the sp for the skill and think, "wait a minute, why do all of the other suits cost so much more sp than this one?" rather than skilling into it because you think you'll get a one up on everyone else.
and if you did skill into it because you wanted it, then it shouldn't be a problem working to get the sp you should have needed to use it.

Yup and I sincerely feel like and idiot for not considering the SP modifiers. But as I say I am not a numbers savvy person..... I was working off "I spend X SP and this I how mych I have left".

If this thing is really a problem they could just give everyone with an active character a bonus equivalent to Amarr scout level 5 SP cost now minus Amarr scout level 5 SP cost at launch. That way no one would lose out relative to others from CCP's mistake. |

They should have to pay interest on the borrowed SP. Cut their SP gains by, say, 10% until they work off the debt. |

I got my scout and had enough Sp laying around so I'm not negative. It really pisses me off that new guys wouldn't know about multipliers and bought Amarr scouts. How should they know CCPis incompetent? They have not witnessed blunder after blunder. Bandaid fixes, Misleading or broken skills, general lack of any insight into the community. They couldn't. They just see a months worth of not getting anything new. I wouldn't put up with thatshit if I was new.

And if you didn't really want it, but were trying to scam the system for half price, then you're getting exactly what was coming to you.

They still get to keep what they skilled into though. CCP didn't yank the SP, the skills invested in, and the suits.
