Title Updates, Multiboxing and the UI

The past two updates, different elements of the UI have been seemingly reset / forced set.

Crius: "Open Industry Window" becomes set to ALT+S. If already used for a hotkey, said hotkey loses functionality.
Hyperion: Target style (with screen-length lines vs. without) set to with, overtaking previous setting.

As this relates to multiboxing, setting up the clients to be sync'd is indeed quite the tedious task. Once it's been done any change committed to one window must be committed to the next in order to keep the sync in check. Unfortunately the last two updates have forced us multiboxers into having to "re-setup" each separate window.

Not a game killer by any means, not even a big deal. However quite inconvenient. Would be nice to see updates released without forced UI changes.

neither this game, nor any game has ever made a change to suit your play style. deal with it.

EVEonline has joined the MMMORPG genre .... Ruining the gaming experience.

A clear response regarding multiboxing in the eve universe from CCP would be appreciated

MMMORPG = Massively Multiboxing Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game.

I don't have a problem with multiboxers, or isboxer. But I don't care about them either. Call me indifferent, but your problems feel very inconsequential to the game as a whole.

So CCP updated the game and you're upset you have to redo your ISBoxer settings?

Really.

You haven't really looked.

... and as a multiboxer myself I find this topic highly pathetic.

Only reason this annoyed me is that i had to rebind my gaming keypad.
No one really gives a crap if you ISboxers are having trouble.

If boxing is too hard for you, feel free to stop.
