While you're at it, give us the ability to do bulk adds and/or corp watchlists. There's no reason every member of a corp at war should have to spend so much time adding every member of the OTHER corp to their watch list.

Remove watchlist altogether, same time local's removed.

not fun for us wardeccers though.

local removal would be pretty awesome like a delay in lowsec and longer delay in 0.0. wormholes are for no local, that is a wormhole signature trait now.



back to topic, WATCHLIST FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU so annoying, it's been broken for like 3 years, i'm not kidding, really it has been broken that long. must be a feature actually.

Actually, I believe it'd be more of a boost to wardeccers than the other way. Usually wardeccers are few while their targets are many. The 'defenders' can alot easier keep track of the aggressors, at least if they have half a brain, and unfortunately it do happen that they avoid wardeccers completely partially because of the watchlist.

Having a watchlist for your pals is great, having it when stalking someone is useful/powerful, having it to avoid people that try kill you is another nerf to PvP in this game. Just like local is. Actually, since having friends etc is useful by itself, what should be gone is the part of the watchlist that identify who's online or not only (or make it optional, as a setting).

That being said, yes, the watchlist been crap for years and it's quite ironic how this big 'overhaul' it got some time ago really did not solve anything at all. If something, it made it worse, the tabs is not nearly as good as the folders.

TL;DR remove the online showing, and fix the tabs/folders and other issues with watchlists. The current state is pathetic at best.

The watch is such a joke. It's super easy to glitch out, as well. They need to either remove it entirely or fix it, ffs.
