The game will always be changing.
Deal with it.
While I appreciate your position on this subject, being on the CPM I would have thought that you would be a little more tactful with the way you word things to your community / playerbase.

This is a topic most people should've gotten through their heads long ago. I kinda miss when posting respec threads got you a ban, but that's just me. It's not my playerbase, it's CCP's playerbase. I am a member of said playerbase. My job as CPM is primarily to convey useful feedback from players to CCP, not the other way around. (Telling players stuff is CCP's job. My job is to tell them to do that job better.) I do try to correct some horribly backwards views about the game, but that's me being me as a player more than anything else.
Personally I used to play EVE so I am quite used to the notion of 'choices that matter'.
It may not be ~your~ player-base but we ARE your community. Are you not a representative of both us and in a manner of speaking, a representative of CCP?

Ok, well that's fair enough then.
I would just like to convey a helpful attitude towards people on the forums, yea a lot of us have been around for ages but there are always users that are new, they could probably do with a little more explanation at times. Oh well no love lost.

Any game that claims they can nail balance spot on, and not need to adjust is lying. They're just saying "yeah, it's unbalanced, but we're okay with that". I was specifically responding to your claim that 'The game will always be changing'. This implies that, even if balance were achieved, the game would be changed anyway, presumably in a counterproductive attempt to sell AUR.
Of course it is hard for any game to achieve 100% perfect balance. The thing is the vast majority of multi-player competitive games try to limit how much they change things around in one go, this way the devs and player base can watch the meta change and see how things go.
They certainly do not start drastically changing roles left right and centre. Like others have said, we were told about this "10 year roadmap" yet we never saw any of it, even still I feel there is no real direction in the hotfixes, just random seemingly good changes.
I am happy we are getting anything. That doesn't change the fact of this threads existence..... keep adjusting things so much and people are naturally going to ask for respecs.
Balance does not necessarily equal changing roles.
