the irony, see my alts post 2 weeks ago: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2403728#post2403728
GM Archduke "I have yet to hear a valid reason/argument for this, and trust me, I've heard a lot of different ones."
my answer: "if earning more money is not a valid reason then I guess you do not want to earn more money"
2 weeks later, AUR respec announced

I would be glad if that happens. as a logi I really dislike getting insta killed by a 15db shotgun scout that can sneak up even without cloak from behind because he sees where your whole team is looking at with his passive scanner wallhack. |

Personally I don't think it does but some people will inevitably get their dicks in a knot and cry "P2W!" And those people would be wrong. Don't get why it's so hard for people to get that respecs aren't P2W. Players don't necessarily have a problem with the respecs themselves,they have a problem with the fact that only AUR users will have access to it. Effectively locking out all of Dusts poorer players.
CCP is not locking out anyone. the "poor" players can simply play 2 weeks and get the stuff their want, there is not limit on the content they can access. this is how microtransactions work, you pay to get other stuff faster or to get stuff that has no effect on performances like different colors/designs. |

Respecs are not P2W. Neither are boosters. They just allow you to access some content faster. Actually,AUR exclusive respecs are very much P2W. Unless they have an ISK option too. Now boosters on the other hand are early access,which is ok for the F2P model.
you obviously do not know what pay to win means. |

Different colors = Quafe,etc.
If you've put SP in the wrong places and never maxed your cores.
Then pay to respec,and then invest in your cores and other things using your Dust experience.
Those changes dramatically effect your suits performance.
What about the ISK users?
The ones that made the same mistakes?
Should they be stuck because' consequences' and 'your choices matter'?
you play for two weeks, and get some core skills, problem?
beside that, the guy that did a respec to fill his core skills will lack somewhere else.
ergo, you payed to get something faster (you core skills) in exchange for 20% of skillbook price and lost SP somewhere else.
a respec is no "item of greater quality" btw. a respec does not grant you secret or improved stuff no other can get. it is not p2w deal with it. |

You seem to ignore the obvious.
F2P means IRL and in-game money can be used for everything sold in a games market.
Not 'oh IRL money users have exclusive access'.
That's P2W.
here we found the point where you are wrong thus not getting what P2W means |
