Really? I love the interface, its superb. If you find it fidgety, stick the block on so it only shows 1 window at a time.
Farming. Well it suits me, though I know isn't everyones cup of tea. I agree with all those threads in the ideas about changing the ratio of the amount you get down, its not exactly right with the most active getting the most resources. Though then again, they are the ones putting more endeavour in.
Ugly map... I disagree. I love it compared to the old, stale interface. That maps more annoying, having to plan an attack with 8 tabs open.
I think people are being too overly critical on it, and just need to fiddle with the options to suit them.
