Title: Latest Devblog: CCP figure out doing simple things is well, simple! Post by: Amarr HM on August 06, 2009, 05:14:51 AM While the rest of CCP is busy blundering with things that only 1% of the playerbase use on a regular basis like T3 and Blackops, a small but furrylike group of backteamers are busy quandering over the not so important things like a workable UI. In this devblog we learn that a small but dedicated team spend two weeks creating a butan that allows you to join a corporation from anywhere, genius.

Maybe they should improve the abysmal logging while they're at it. Actually, from what I've seen, the logging is even worse than the UI if you can imagine that.
