(sorry, double-dipping)

Add "Est Value / Volume" (or Est. Value / m3) column to inventory window and filterable columns.

Put the server reset button on Guard's desk, next to the spot for the pimp cup, and make it a light enough switch that even an empty pimp cup can depress it.

Talking more,

Flying crazier,

And drinking more

Neuting drones to be unresponsive and making the same changes to a piloted ship.

I think we can all agree we should replace the Opportunities system with a helper animated paperclip.

Make a client API that allows third-party-eve-devs to modify the in game UI and create widgets that could act like Pyfa/EFT but built in game.

Optional Voice Chat in Local. Only hearable on same Grid as Speaker. (or same station). Imagine B-R battle smacktalk or Jita4-4's market cries. Twisted

Ideas are like Seeds. I'd chop fullgrown trees to start a fire.

Change icons that work and everyone is familiar with for fiddly overly detailed new ones that are impossible to see properly in actual gameplay. Straight

So I've made it a goal of mine to tell CCP Fozzie at least one bad idea for EVE development every day. It helps me think of things outside of the box and is often funny. I was talking with CCP Dolan yesterday and realized that the entire community should participate!

Please only one sentence per post that proposes a good/bad/funny change for eve online. I'll start:

A mod which instantly swaps your momentum/vector with your target when activated!


(I lied, the following is the best idea I've ever had) Add the physics engine of Kerbal Space program and allow Kerbal's to take over construction and design of all blueprints for one year in Eve - easily an upgrade for all Minmatar ships and an instant re-balance of ships.

Update the overview with nice new icons, but still refuse to fix the failed "colorless UI icons and removed custom colors" debacle from several patches ago.
