The new Expanded Inventory View design

I think those C++ programmers should go back to school, or probably change careers. That being said, I didn't buy into any of that. No company this serious is going to have people coding that bad. It's ok at this point in the game's life to just tell us you flat out wont do it. Don't give us legendary wall'o text excuses.

Also my post is not directed at Zhexos, rather the person he quoted

Chances are whatever noob designed it is probably gone.

While the software company I work for is nowhere near as old/experienced as SE, and it is a shame that a company of their stature would not notice such things, I know all too well how difficult it can be to completely revamp legacy bad code someone else wrote.

Where I work, we had these horrible coders for about 4 or 5 years, then they all got replaced with people who actually know what they're doing and it's taking over a year to fix the product because the entire application needed to be rewritten, while still providing support for the clients already on the old version.

So even if their current team is good, it can be hard to fix things, especially things that are at the core of the application (and inventory definitely would rank there), while also providing new content/fixes for current players.

So personally I buy the excuse given, even if I'm very disappointed that a company like SE didn't realize/prioritize for this to be fixed years ago.
