Hi guys,

I apologise if what i am about to ask has alredy been discussed. If so - just direct me with some link pls.


My issue is with personal bookmarks. I have several alts and on some, when doing right click in space, it gives me instant access to saved bms for the current system(Personal Bookmars stays on top of them, no drop down menu). On others i have to go trough drop down menu first (Personal Bookmarks) and then i can choose which bm to use. I guess i dont have to explain to you how paniful doing that is. Is this a matter of tunig up (turning off/on sth) or we see CCP at its best again?

thank You

No one cares whether or not you slide your Fruit Loops around the table at breakfast time.

OP: Yeah... it's a horribly screwed up implementation of bookmarks that forces them into subfolders if there's more than four or so. I'm not sure what the hell CCP was thinking with this, but as someone that relies on bookmarks for daily functioning it's easy to see that this poorly planned implementation is going to get someone killed because they couldn't dig through subfolders fast enough.

Six months in the hole... it changes a man.

They just got CCP'd. The likely reason you don't have to suffer from it on some accounts is because they have only a few BMs within a single system, so this new "feature" doesn't get activated.

This has already been fixed internally. Personal locations should never be put into a sub-menu but corporation locations will get put into a sub-menu if there are more than 8 in the system. The reason for that is if you have 50 bookmarks in the same system then that is something you can control but for the corporations not so much.

Hope that helps.

Could you also put the personal bm list above the corp bm list please.

I would really really hope this would be an option. What this does, it forces me to just copy all the relevant corp BMs as personal BMs on all my characters.

But hey, it is your DB and your disk space... Lol

Since the devs are watching this bookmarks post: Corp bookmarks are great, but for those of us who still like to share a lot (read folders of hundreds) of bookmarks, is there anyway the 5 at a time copy limit could be raised significantly? Thanks.
