Yea, i agree.
Too bad there isn't some sort of summary of what the CSM talked to CCP about recently.
Maybe that would contain some sort of hope for the future of the launcher. Ah well, one can dream. |

I've heard about this.
It's not as simple as it sounds, apparently, due to some decisions that were made a fair time ago in the development. Not decisions to stop you doing it, just a side effect.
It's due to the code assuming that the character id won't change. To change it, they'd have to dig pretty deeply into the code to make sure they find all the references.
For a pretty minor benefit. The pay-off isn't really worth the effort. Steve Ronuken for CSM 9! http://www.fuzzwork.co.uk/ Twitter: @fuzzysteve on Twitter |

However once it was done it would be done forever, no?
So if eve lasted 10 more years then, eh it would be a good change for 10 years. |

They can't end your session without logging you out and logging you in automatically is detrimental to account security.
Thus no log off to character selection. Sovereignty and Population New Mining Mechanics |

That's what I heard a while back too.
And if you want to go back to character screen quickly, just leave launcher open when logging in, close the client you have open, and click launch again. That's if you haven't logged in with another character already. Game opens back up to the character screen without having to log in again. *removed inappropriate signature* - CCP Eterne |

Except with the launcher.
The launcher is able to maintain the flags that say your account information and password are valid and "logged in" so if you keep the launcher open you can click [Play] again after having closed the client and it'll drop you right back into character select :P The Drake is a Lie |

It just does not clear out the entry field and when you log in again through the launcher, it checks what's in the field. So it's not automatic and not a security risk as no log in information can be read out randomly without user action. Sovereignty and Population New Mining Mechanics |

Because the man who wrote the code for the new login screen cast an ancient & terrible curse upon it when he was axed in favour of recruiting another artist for tattooed cybernetic vanity items. Before he cleared his desk to make room for the stacks of concept artwork for a new cybernetic armpit with a really cool spider engraved into it or something, he cut his palm and as the blood seeped from the wound and dripped onto the keyboard he cast the dreaded Haram Hum'Shi-La! This ancient curse, this diabolical abomination, has forever tainted the codebase and any who attempt to alter the great works of the coder who cast the curse live only three days in a perpetual nightmare before succumbing to a most dreadful fate.

It's funny, if you are not using the launcher to start the game, then there is a LOG OFF button. Unfortunately it's just closing the client and starting it up again. So not really doing what you would expect. |

I'm closing this for lack of content. If you'd like for some sort of option to log out from the Character Selection screen, I recommend posting it in the Rubicon feedback thread. Thank you. ISD Dorrim Barstorlode Captain Community Communication Liaisons (CCLs) Interstellar Services Department |

I have removed some rule breaking posts and those quoting them. As always I let some edge cases stay. Please people, keep it on topic and above all civil!
The rules: 2. Be respectful toward others at all times.
The purpose of the EVE Online forums is to provide a platform for exchange of ideas, and a venue for the discussion of EVE Online. Occasionally there will be conflicts that arise when people voice opinions. Forum users are expected to be courteous when disagreeing with others.
5. Trolling is prohibited.
Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote. ISD Ezwal Lt. Commander Community Communication Liaisons (CCLs) Interstellar Services Department |
