Personally I don't see the big problem. SKs are part of the game and there is no way that people can honestly think that if getting SKd will make someone quit that something else random happening isn't just as likely to do it.

As for the problem - what I don't like is the idea that, according to this poll, if the consensus is to change SKs to not be in the roiding class, that it will be in a slower eta class. Why should someone who wants to use them not be able to as it will slow their whole fleet down. Take Xans for example, if its not a fi sk, then at worst it should be a co one. There is absolutely no use in having a cr SK for a fi/co Xan.

The same also holds true for other races. A Terran who is going fr/de eta isn't going to get too much use out of a bs/cr SK, without building some sort of fleet around it (which would mean it was for the sole purpose of SKing). Ideally there would be a sk for each eta pod a race has, in the opposite class. Ter DE pod, fr sk. Cath cr pod, bs sk etc. This would limit their use somewhat for solo stuff but still be usable, while allowing more use for ally teamups/wars etc.
