You are missing the point I am making entirely.
My point is no matter what you do there is way too much needless clicking with P.I. My point is the UI is forcing the player to waste hours which would otherwise be saved if CCP put some more effort into polishing Tyrannis a bit. But as it stands I am quite sure the devs already are working on the next expansion and put this one behind them. This offcourse follows the usual CCP trend with expansions.
Love it, leave it or change it (also 'break it' is valid  )
I read your original post and yes: I don't care, if another one makes the click-fest. If you think you are wasting time, why don't you just leave it be? And let someone else make the paste? Do something, that generates more income (if you are after money) or something that is more fun!

My post was about how CCP could make the process 10x more time efficient by implementing some simple fixes, not asking for advice on what to do/not to do with PI. But thank you for stating the obvious.
You are welcome.
And I don't find any suggestions in your posts, how CCP could make PI '10x more time efficient'. I just see whining, that you need hours and hours after hours of clicky, clicky, clicky.
If you have real proposals go to Features and Ideas or to the Assembly Hall.
...not that it would change anything.

cool story bro
But did any of you consider this: once the 'click-fest' stops and you only need to group your extractors and survey/mine all with one click, everybody will come back to PI *hurray*
And profits will drop.
Deep.
Everybody will then whine that they skilled all alts for PI and now the profits are low and CCP has to do something, because the one minute of selecting a planet and survey/mine-click per 30min/5 hours doesn't generate millions anymore.
I read the same profit-whining threads every week: T1, Invention, Datacores, Research, .... now PI. All profits go down! WTF CCP! I emoragequit! I hate you all! Alliances ruining 0.0, T2 BPO owner - devils to invention, mining bots, datacore farmer nerf! WHERE IS MY MONEY?
... and those who do their calculations and think ahead will say: in my bloody pocket! HA HA!
So STFU and work for your ISK!
/emorage
...ahhh that did good

You actually fail to understand that some of us don't necessarily do this out of own profits, but actually are doing this to supply the people we play with (i.e the corp and alliance) with nanitepaste, POS fuel etc. This is actually a mechanic you need to work with if you want to keep things running
Dude, what I'm trying to tell you is: if activity A generates you X ISK/hour and activity B earns you Y ISK/hour and Y >> X then there are two reasons to stick with activity A:
1) it is fun
2) you don't know what to do else
Apparently it is not 1)
So why don't you go missioning in the 'several hours each day' or play the market? If you can make more money/hour than skip PI and buy those things for your 'alliance'. And you are sure not the only one, who can do PI!

It is tedious because there is no thought required for the clicking. The attention/resurvey could be made less tedious by having something requiring a little thought, a minor decision. Perhaps a slider or cross-hair that needs to be re-centred. Some thing like that would also make it resistant to macros.
why do I get an 'oil imperium' reminiscence?
