Location Bookmark Folders

I've had some issues with the bookmark folders ever since I started to explore the EVE universe, and started to get alot of BMs. One issue that really had me all fired up (just ask the poor GMs) was when somehow the settings files got corrupted and I had to start over with clean settings, and making new folders for it all.

Wouldn't it be doable to move those folders to serverside, like you did with fittings? Setting a maximum amount of BMs that can go into a folder, say 75 as an example, wouldn't increase the traffic too much?

I have about 2400 bookmarked locations now and it would be more if I didn't have the feeling those folders can vanish at any time (hours of sorting).

Fixed in the expansion (as you saw).

However, you should always create bookmarks with some sort of naming system at the front which matches the folder structure that you plan on using. Some people use a system like Agony, others use a simpler 2-3 letter prefix. (Even if I lose my folders, it only takes me 15-20 minutes to sort a few thousand back into folders.)

(And a mental note that I'll have to update that page next week to reflect bookmark folders now being server-side...)
