If you can't even figure out the interface I'd hate to see your attempt at playing the game tbh.
Interface is fine, takes some working out, many things are well hidden and undocumented (like the neato magnifying glass when you're in space), but it's all there and you find it all so it's fine tbh.

Perfect standard EVE forums response.
Just because you've got used to something (and I have by the way) doesn't mean it's good.
You exhibit the arrogance that has become the norm on these forums now. When I started playing this game 3 years ago I was impressed by the level of maturity and common sense displayed by the players. This has now evaporated to be replaced with self-centered, defensive, intolerant childish ranting.
Suggesting something in EVE can be improved is taken as a personal slur and evidence that the suggester is retarded - not a sign of a healthy mental attitude IMO, and is actually a characteristic of addiction.
Perfect standard forum whine. Just because you don't like the way something is, it should be changed, and anyone who doesn't jump up and down and agree must be against you.
I never said you (or anyone else) couldn't figure out the interface. I never said it can't or shouldn't be improved, just that it is fine as it is.
If you look closely you'll see the first part of my post is a conditional statement which applies only to those people who cannot figure out the interface, a group which you apparently are not a member of.
The second part does not state (though it may imply) that the interface should not be improved. But in its current form it does the job just fine, and your thinking that it is 'embarassingly bad' does not make it so.
You exhibit the arrogance that has become the norm of the forums now. You believe that your own issues with the game are the most important ones.
Suggesting that something in Eve you think needs 'fixing' is actually ok is taken as a personal slur - not a sign of a healthy mental attitude IMO.

I hope you aren't a software developer or anyone else involved in implementing interfaces and controls.
If this truly is your hope, then you shall be disappointed  .
And you are quite correct in your assertion that my belief that an interface that does the job plenty well enough should not be a high priority for improvements means that were I myself to design an interface I would make it intentionally obfusticated*.
*May contain traces of sarcasm
