It would be *really* nice to have the option to disable this stupid thing.  I don't do it often, but occasionally I will accidentally hit "clear all hotkeys", because it's so conveniently placed right next to the "edit hotbar" option.  And sometimes if you are just mousing over the options and don't select completely outside the options given, you'll clear your hotkeys.  Makes me batty.It would be fantasic if there was an option we could tick off to disable this.  Really.  <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" width="15" height="15" />

Hehe glad to see I'm not the only one to have done that. <img src="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/images/smilies/908627bbe5e9f6a080977db8c365caff.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" width="15" height="15" />

I've done it once accidentally. Ever since then I pay close attention, but I so rarely ever need to right click on my hotbars, that it really isn't a problem for me. I rather like that this option is there. When I betrayed my characters, this saved me a lot of time of clearing my hotbars as my new class spells appeared on them... starting at level 1. <sighs>

And could someone tell me <i>what</i> that grey thing by my name is supposed to be? It looks like a moldy pear.

<p>I am assuming it is a Blarney Stone.</p><p>The only reason I have to right click the hot bars is I keep them on no drag because when I lag sometimes I will move hot keys as opposed to push them.</p><p>So when I want to change a spell icon, or hot key around, I need to do the right click and hope I pay attention.</p>

I used to have the dragging problem too. Lock your hotbars. It will save you much frustration. <nods>

Since that time I pay much more attention when I need to lock and then unlock.

I would like to add my name to this list.  Twice tonight (Yes..TWICE) I cleared 2 hotbars that hadn't been changed in months.  Even though I play almost every night, I was at a loss as far as remembering which icons went where.A simple CONFIRMATION dialog would be great and shouldn't be too hard to implement for the coders.As you rely on the community (customers) for feedback can you please be sure to mention this change in the update notices please?Thanks(yes - this has also been submitted via /feedback)
