During the Blood Raider test CCP Larrikin constantly said Anchor On Me to numerous FAX I think. What if Anchor On Me could be used to move a fleet that would remain at each ships orbit around the anchor during warp? When the fleet landed the ships would start to orbit again. The drawback is that ships anchored on the anchor ship outside of ten km would align to the warp too point normally while the ships closer then 10 km would warp orbiting the anchor ship.

Because pushing the orbit button again once you land is too much like hard work?

I think that the OP should stick to perfecting and understanding his famous scissor technique instead of making yet more banal suggestions that demonstrate his clear lack of knowledge about how the game works.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

That functionality already exists in form of the fleet commando "Regroup".

My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

+1, already existing, its in the fleet menu (Top left corner drop down thing)

Pretty sure you have to be Boss though, or at least is some level of command.
