Dear Hilmar Veigar Pétursson:

If you really, really, honestly and truly want to regain the hearts of the player base, you can have your develpers do one simple thing.....

You can save a trader HOURS and HOURS of wasted boring time by adding a "SHOW REGION ONLY" check box on the "My Orders" tab of the Market window.

If a player is a Level 4-5 tycoon and has close to 300 sell orders,e.g., and travels region to region to reset prices if need be, it is absolutely ludicrous the player has to sift through 300 or so orders each region when maybe only 3-4 orders are in that region.

C'mon. Show us you care about player friendly game play.

You did fix the Contracts interface and made it a gem. It was seven years too late, but you did show you could take a near worthless user interface like the original Contracts interface was and not just redesign it, but made it just about perfect.

You could do this with other interfaces, like the impossible to use "My Orders" as I described, but instead you spend too much time developing new versions and not thinking through it, as you said in your blog, while ignoring simple fixes.

PLEASE take the time to fix some of these interfaces that border on the insane. You can start with "My Orders" and let the database query by "region only" and "show all".

Thank you.

If it were not for the humour embedded within your post Sir, I would have you flogged for your impudence.

Hellmar is above reproach on this fine day and "the hearts of the player base" are elsewhere.

As you were....

Organizing market orders like this would be much happiness.

While you are at it please let us be able to easily identify and change our own orders from the market orders tab and then things would really be kicking...

I place all orders in a region - in the same station. Easy sorting.
