I recently noticed that it is now possible to right click on sold items in the wallet screen and see the info on the person who bought items from you. (it's possible it was there all along and I never noticed) And yes, I know that I could see buyer's names before.

Anyway...

Why not add that same option in the window where you see market orders? Both buy and sell.

I think it would be awesome if we could see the EXACT people who have open orders at any given time and are competing with us. This way we could track said people, try to blow up their ships, block their trade routes, prevent them from restocking their wares by buying out their supply. If eve is about war, than traders shouldn't be exempt from it. In fact, I think
this kind of war would be in some ways even deeper and more interesting than regular PvP.

I am not talking about any in-detail info. Only character name is needed. From there, they, their trade routes and habits can be researched by someone dedicated enough.

i noticed i can invade the privacy of others, if i am willing to buy and sell to them repeatedly. can you make this easier and cost free ccp? Roll

why not i noticed i can invade the privacy of others, can you eliminate this?

go crawl around with people in space if you want to kill them, you want to be able to total recon on people without having to undock, gtfo.

We are our own worst enemy.

im hesitant to agree on this because once its implemented people will just put their trades on alts that never undock defeating the purpose of this addition... but yes i would like to see who I'm buying from before buying.
