Ok everyone, please post here all the dumb annoying problems with the game that would take 2 min to fix if the devs spent time on it. I'd like to start with two:
1. A queue system for skill training. I've had enough of waking up in the middle of the night to train my skills.
2. Mission bookmarks for every station that you have to dock at. It's not very fun searching through a list of stations in a system that has twenty. And you couse use this to set the destination system too.
I know these are small, but they would save a lot of time and make the game better. Please continue the list.

I think your personal rating as a healthy human being just hit rock bottom 
solution: dont get up out of bed to train skill...either train one that will last though the night or lose a few houres. whats the big deal anyways?
I have 4.5m skillpoints and ive pretty much taken all oppertunities to train skill. Now and then one finishes in the middle of the night, or i dont play for a day and lose some training time. But generally i have been training skills fairly constantly since the release of EVE...
Yet i see people out there who have almost double sp of mine. Whats up with that? I was wondering if some of you guys get up at night to train skills...but i thought it was to crazy...
Looks like i was wrong 
What else thats EVE related do you get out of bed for then? To fly your indy to the station and empty your hold everytime its full of veld or scord?

It's time for Eris to get a clue. CCP should make a statement about this.
It's the exact same things as what Zombie did, you may not attack in "safe-areas" (empire/within sentry range) without loosing your ship.

Some people set timed alarm clocks for that...
Hey, quit insulting the Eve addicts, I carefully monitor my skilltraining so I can get every last second!

Speeking of the system menu: I want to see that menu be Sticky [if you Rt clk it], and each subsiquent sub menu. It gets annoying to open 4 pop up menues just to have them close because you moved 1 pixil off the menu.

The topic appears to be, you're extremely badly addicted to this game and should cease playing it.

1. Let me sort my bookmarks into folders.
2. Fix corporate taxes.
3. Fix courier mission reward bug.
4. Allow ship scanners to give us a 3 dimensional coordinate of our ships location in a system, with the star being centered at 0,0,0.
5. Allow us to plot a jump point based on the 3d coordinate system so that we can warp to places in empty space, without first bookmarking the spot.
yea 4 & 5 are wishes, but 1-3 should be fixed.
tralala

Do you really get up in the middle of the night to train another skill??
That's called addiction, my friend. Do what another person implied...set up an 8 hour skill and train that over night. LOL, i dont think DEVs will set up a queue system for addicts.
Plus, its exciting trying to get in the game to train another skill...like competing for a race.

First, just because someone plays the game with a greater fervor than you doesn't mean their an addict. Is it possible their not the addict but rather you are just a casual player?
MSCLCN, here's a couple bugs that annoy me:
1. Those crazy jumping windows that move all by themselves when you move your cursor over them. Relogging fixes this but when my chat window (set to local) jumps around on me when I'm in EC-P8R in a hauler, I get mad.
2. A queuing system for research & factory slots would be nice too, so I can schedule stuff for research & build when other finish.
3. A better chat window interface. When you got 10 chat windows going, it's a living hell finding which window is which unless you fill your screen with the chat window.
4. GURISTAS, GURISTAS, GURISTAS!!!! For God's sake CCP, please fix them so we operate from Venal again.
5. Imagine if you could have emergency Evemails that would sned a message to MSN or Yahoo or AOL Instant messaging applications so when big things happen, and you're out-of-game, you could reschedule a RL appointment or class or step on the accelerator to get home faster. That would be nice.
And YES, I'm a freakin Eve addict!!!

U can do that actually!!
Well most of my complaints have been fixed with the castor patch but:
-The training queue is not a bad idea at all, cause I travel a lot for long times...
-A market report for specific items, like I get EVE-Mailed about prices of ships so I can buy my ship at the right time (and save money) could be an interesting thing to see...
Well, one last word to the EVE addicts out there:
KEEP IT UP, without u EVE wouldnt be the same!

I hope this is irony. If it isn't, you have an even bigger problem than the first guy.
And I know whereof I speak. Getting addicted to an online game helped ruin my own life.

DonŠt really see number 1 as a problem just do what Jash did, you can always switch between skills without losing training time.
Number 2 is not a problem either you can just use the search button on the scanner for example you can type spacelane and get all spacelane stations in that system. I donŠt like the idea that courier missions become to easy after all the only challange is to dock at the right station (which I sometime have a hard time doing ).

2. Mission bookmarks for every station that you have to dock at.
But I have a problem where if I access my bookmarks, the game hangs for like 30 seconds every time. And once I access my bookmarks and leave people/places open on the bookmarks TAB. The game hangs for 30 seconds every time I undock, dock, change ships, set waypoints, remove waypoints, and jump to a new system.
What I do for missions is keep the mission details window open. It says which stations and all that.

Now some things they should fix before tech level 3...
1) Autoscanner - It sucks. No audible warnings means no multitasking while autopilot travels. The states, Mark if pilot has bad Security Status, Personal, and Corp Standing. Thoughs states don't light up for players. And half the time the threat-state is either not lit up when it should be, or it is lit up when it shouldn't be. There's also a bug where the autoscanner will stop displaying ships that warp-in. You have to manually refresh the autoscanner to display these players.
2) And I would say the fact the game hangs on me for about 30 secs everytime I access my 30 or so bookmarks list.. That's pretty annoying nStuff.

How about seeing what skills you want and train those if your going to bed and don't want to wake up. Yes queuing skills would be great and all but use common sense if you want maximize training time.
Example
Going away for 4 days
A) train a lvl 2 skill to lvl 3 (only 12 hours)
B) train a lvl 1 skill to lvl 5 (6-8 days)
C) train a lvl 4 skill to lvl 4 (4-5 days)
Now what would you pick, from the sounds of it A. Smart people would pick B or C depending which skill they wanted first. I know if I'm going to bed its simple if i sleep for 5-6 hours, i make sure I got a skill that can do that at least if not longer.
Dev's shouldn't need to fiddle with this until later. More important things in the game to fix up then pittly problems about skill timing issues.

No one seems to have got the point here, you have all missed the boat completely.
The skills are not suppossed to be queable, its not a bug, its not needing fixing. The idea is you have to play the game to get somewhere, if you could que them then you would not have to log in... So then why dont we have automated mining ships too? That mine and land back at the station... Its cool the skills learn when you are not online, queing them is a very silly idea, think about it guys!!!

Hmmm. Or, the whole point of allowing your skills to train overnight when you're logged off (you did know you could do that, right?) is to make it so that you actually don't need to play the game to get somewhere.
Not that I think we should allow queuing of skills, mind you, just pointing out that your argument is, well, totally without any merit.
