Dear CCP,
As much as I enjoy laughing at stupid people, I am a very large man and I enjoy flying my Cerberus class vessel through space, as it is rather skinny and I enjoy compensating for my self IRL. I find that occasionally the grease from my donuts make me click the jump button when i mean to warp, though it is a very useful feature for moving fast. It would be incredibly useful to add an option in the overview settings to disengage/remove the jump option so that I may enjoy my donuts without having the honourable SirMolle become angry with me for accidentally jumping when I didn't intend to.

There is one such button: Stop my ship. I'm sure you have time to spam it before the ship jumps, it's not that hard.

The problem is I cannot maintain my donut finger with your method. The fact that there is a way to do it doesn't mean you shouldn't make it less ****** to do.

Get a second monitor... bare the lower half of your body... bring up some "questionable sites" (whatever floats your boat, if you know what I mean Blink ) ... and viola!!! You have a retractable, au natural, donut holder. Your "donut holding hand" is now free to do as it pleases until it is needed to do "its job."

Genius! Sir, I salute you 07.

And I like the new button, more screw-ups on gates adds to the fun :) Stop ship works so I suggest using the above quoted method.

Keyboard shortcuts. Reassign "Warp to" and "Jump" to keys far away from each other on your keyboard. Get a keyboard designed for seniors with larger keys.

Tch, really. No way someone can take the original posting somehow seriously...

That entire interface should be customizable in terms of placement of the buttons and what each button does.
