Please just make them stay in their respective positions I am tired of picking the wrong bald headed toon... It would be much easier if they stayed in their own slots permanently (or could be rearranged at will, just not automatically)

They moved around on the old login screen too. What's the problem with it now?

It's not a difficult thing to figure out - the character you last logged into is always on the left. If you want to log a different character, you'll need to click somewhere else.

Its hard to program the bots because the alts move around on the screen, this is the only reason they'd have to complain about it, the keystroke macro they're using or whatever crappy bot program is having a hard time picking the right guy, and so they make these not so subtle threads trying to get CCP to help fix their botting programs.

Let's also make all of your UI windows move around at random and shuffle every 15 minutes, to make it harder for botting programs.

If only there were labels...like names for instance....that would help identify which toon to choose.

If only.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Thanks for making the most absurd leap of logic ever, carry on Fcon guy, carry on.

Is that how they've ordered them? I'll have to check this when I get home I had thought that it was random.
