While ago we had forums in eveonline.com
Now we have 8 websites scattered to browse the information from.
Good going. Really impressive usability upgrades.

Before: 1. load eveonline.com 2. load devblog page
Now: 1. load eveonline.com 2. load community.eveonline.com 3. load devblog page
It is not about hating the change. It is about pushing bling over usability. This is just as bad design as the new neocom, where simple and working functionality and features were removed to make it look more pretty and have more "cool" menus.
Neither is working well any more.
...and as I know that some will soonTM say "bookmark to community.eveonline.com and live with it" I have to ask question - should I bookmark to support. account management and forums as well? Like to have eve-online compatible browser configuration you would need 8 bookmarks in links bar.... right?
Front page of websites should tie the site together, not provide only some graphical presentation for possible new customer with few $ to spare. You could have some nice attractive advertisement for them to click which would forward them to page like that.

Hey there douchebag, try this: 1. Go to http://community.eveonline.com/devblog.asp2. Bookmark 3. ??? 4. Profit? Some people are so damn lazy it's incredible...can't help themselves. Oh, and PS, your name sucks balls...was that your D&D name back in the 70's? That said, great new website! Can't wait to see it evolve and improve. Now go back to read the bottom part of my post which you just clipped from quote. Then you realize that it is too late to fix the "creative" brain fart you just poasted.

Just right click at the top, add a folder named EVE and put EVE Bookmarks in there, and enjoy !
Aye... sounds like a good idea. It wasn't broken, they fixed it and now I have to customize it with time to gain some of the usability back that I had before. However even after customizing to the max, it still won't be as good. Another dejavu from the famous neocom.
If website which needs folder full of bookmarks is 2012 style, so be it... Thankfully customers are always wrong and CCP always thinks before doing something stupid.
(but yes - this suggestion you made seems to be only valid way to make it somewhat work atm - thanks for that)

even overlooking the massive gaping wound to security that flash is the web page now takes something like 4x the resources to load for no real functionality improvement, and loads a bunch of non-CCP scripts in the background for amazon, facebook, twitter, google, and youtube.
seriously why the hell is amazon running a script on the main page? it went from 1 script set(CCP's eveonline.com) to EIGHT. Lol, dude its HTML 5 no flash at all since flash is dead. Yea anyways he has a point there... these are the elements eveonline.com is loading:
