Repeatedily using a weapon on a target when it’s dead, or w/e causes the message box to do flashing animation in the past it would just popback up with no fancy flashing… This flashing is murdering me IRL, it’s pure #cancer… please let us disable it. ---

I have heard many other people complain about this, so I agree that there should be a way to disable it. ---

I have to agree, this is seriously irritating, wtb non-flashing notifications. ---

I could probably get over it if it was less flashy and greyed out but it’s flashing red. Red should be reserved for dangerous/negative and what the hell is dangerous in docking to a station? Hate to complain but -1 to yet another GONG. There’s a ton of UI small, yet usefull features I wish for and that’s certainly not one of them. ---

I wish CCP would inquire about small changes with the community before putting them in game. The Neocon losing it’s color was also a major disappointment to me. ---

That was really something. They took correct scientific research, misinterpreted it and applied it to where they shouldn’t. ---

Just make sure your trenchcoat buttons are properly secured and it’s usually not a problem… Oh, the screen prompts… 😊 Yeah, at first I thought my video card was on the fritz again. It’s not the flash itself, it’s that the backlight is bright white. Maybe tone it down just a little or have it be colored according to the constellation you’re in or your existing theme. It’s enough then to get your attention, but not ermahgerd scrrn! level of attention. ---

+1 please allow toggling if this feature or remove flashing entirely. I personally don’t hate this change, but I wish CCP would make an effort to float changes like this with the community both to see what is potentially controversial and to seek out new/better ideas. ---

Ccp your ui is straight garbage. Let us mod it like every other freaking mmo/ computer game. With the GREED IS GOOD skins you lost your usual excuse of not allowing customized mod UIs that for years was “GRIMDARK! Cant let customers possibly make a pink UI” Also any kind of BOT excuse is out the window with your blatant support of botting ---
