Back when 400 peeps in a system usually meant you had to restart client after leaving system? Back in titan hotdrop dd wiping instantly carrier fleets? Back when what?

Not really usable if don't say what is worse. Like an old person, back in my day, with the smallpox and coal home heating, things were better.

The ratting itself is PvE. Getting away with it is PvP.

It still don't work right just now every time you get a patch you need to relearn eve... wtf?

I've been hearing rumors about mission npcs, structures and wrecks having very random and weird names that are not at all indicative of their actual type and function.

Perhaps if you hurry up and run some missions you can enjoy a completely messed up overview for a few hours until we fix it? Blink

There's always a silver lining.

Oh you wacky kids.

Also, please fix planet and asteroid names, just like you did with stargate names.

An overview full of "stupidly long system name 4 - asteroid belt 5" is silly. We KNOW which system those planets are in and we don't need the Asteroid belt all spelled out. Something like "Asteroid 4 - 5" would suffice. Not everyone has a 32" screen and/or wants to devote massive amounts of space to overview stuff.

I'm getting quite mixed messages from this request of yours and it confuses my already tired brain... Ugh

Ah, seems like the message was edited between me reading it and replying.

It's simple, the overview is to gather information quickly and efficiently. Other than that it's an intrusion and a really bad looking piece of crap in an otherwise amazing looking game. Here's what I mean:

this is bad: "(stargate) system name"
this is good "system name (stargate)"

this is bad: "this is a dumb system name 4 - asteroid belt 5"
this is good: "Planet 4 - Belt 5"

And yeah, I tried a funny but realised it would probably be lost :P
