A friend of mine recently discovered that when showing information on corpses, it no longer displays the name of the pilot to whom the corpse belonged. What gives, CCP? I like knowing whose cold flesh I'm touching in naughty ways; that's half the point of corpses, is being able to brag that you've got XBadGuyX's corpse in your hangar

Great, it's one thing that I found a random corpse in one of my ships last week when I was rearranging, but now you are telling me that I have no clue who it is?

I hope this gets fixed... I may not have any big names in my collection but I know they have been collector's items in the past. Hopefully it's just a display error and the item's database entry still has the corpses official name still applied.

They can't have names or their former owners will get depressed.

corpse names are displaying fine. They cannot however, be displayed remotely.

so, you must show info on the item itself to see the name, not any link to it.

This isn't a new issue, there have been MANY threads about it for a long time, as any search would show

Thank you very much. Being new I don't have very many but I thought they'd suddenly become anonymous.

Do you class the assets window as a link? I just discovered that 'show info' works in there.
