They're too dumb to fix placate for like 5 years too. But we can all admit that's a bug, right?

What I am suggesting is that as you run around doing missions and you level up at your milestone levels 12,17,22,27,32,37,42, and 47 you can purchase the next level of enhancements all at once so if you hit level 12 for example and you are already decked out with all training enhancements with a single click you can upgrade all enhancements to Dual Origin for the price it would cost you to purchase all of them without having to sit there at the store for several minutes purchasing them and placing them. I personally would not need to do this because I generally do not mess with enhancements until at least level 12 anyway however it is just an example. The next example is that you hit level 27 when you can start using level 30 enhancements. You run to a store or the Wentworths and with a click you can either purchase an replace all enhancements with level 30 Single Origin for the price it would cost to purchase them or you could replace them all with level 30 Invention Origin enhancements for the price it would cost you to purchase the recipes at the university + the cost of all needed salvage+ the crafting cost without having to run around spending several hours/days trying to do it manually. Some people do not care about getting the "best price" and since the amount of subscribed players that are actually playing is down right now it is sometimes hard to find enhancements so this would be a way to do it in a fast and easy matter if you did not want to deal with the hassle of haggling and crafting and influence/infamy was no object to you. And I am sure that the system I am proposing would show you the price to upgrade before charging you so you could see if it was an amount you are willing to pay. If you want to sit at the Wentworths for a week waiting to see if you can get that one level 35 standard invention origin recipe for fly speed for only 10000 then go right ahead however some of us like to just upgrade and then return to doing missions, task forces, etc. and we gain enough influence that it is no big deal to drop a few million to upgrade to all level 35 or level 40 standard IOs. I do not know why there are so many people on the boards that decide to just /unsign everything they see without considering an alternative to the way things are. I have been subscribed to this game since June of 2004 and never had a lapse in my account. I have seen every single issue be announced and unvieled. This game has improved greatly since then through suggestions just like this one. I for one do not enjoy the crafting part of the game. It is boring and frustrating and I know I am not the only person that feels that way. It would be nice to be able to upgrade your entire loadout of enhancements in a more quick and easy fashion than we have today. Most other MMOs you may upgrade by getting a new shield or weapon and then you are on your way but you do not have to spend hours purchasing if you can find them upgrades for accuracy/damage/range/endurance Reducers/etc. It is great that we have such a grandular system however it is also very time consuming to upgrade. I am just throwing out a suggestion to make that process more streamlined for those of us who dislike crafting so much.
