Checkbox for reset relations.

Okay I know this is one of those common suggestions, but I couldn't find the thread for it.
The reset all relations button is too close on the screen to the "next" and "previous" page buttons. As a result I have accidentally clicked it numerous times now when im doing my farming runs at the turn change (and just did it again

). I know many other people have done the same, and its even worse if you have officers and do it to them or if your CO does it to you.
So please, please, please. Can we get a checkbox for it?

Just to illustrate why this is an issue, look at the picture below

How easy is it to miss the quick-attack button highlighted in red and accidentally hit the reset button below it? Especially when your using a laptop trackpad instead of a real-mouse (as I do 99% of the time). Even the previous and "reset self and officer" buttons are too close. If you are going through 20-30 pages every turn change, hitting the attack and then previous page buttons as quickly as you can whilst farming (again as I do, mostly because my best farms are at the back of my list, so I start with those) then its almost inevitable that you are going to make a teeny tiny error and be that little way off, losing your entire farm list at some point.
Am I really the only person who thinks this is a problem?

Im guessing you havn't clicked the button accidentally then? in which case you are most lucky. But you are right, losing my farm list and it taking me 4 hours to go through all of my outgoing attack logs declaring war on everyone i've hit in the last 10 days is rather inconvienient.

I think updates like this ARE worth wild. As it shows Admin is still around, and involved with the game.
Constant slight improvements are always nice, when you have a very basic interface like we have.

me to, it's an awsome idea, i use my ipod touch to play a lot, and the buttons are close together on it, which isn't fun on a touch screen, lol, and oh my gosh i get soooo pissed when that happens, great idea norbe.

In reality, such a lethal feather shouldn't have JUST had a text warning saying "are you sure" lol.

Excellent update.. shouldn't be too hard..
Why don't we have 'regular' minor updates - instead of major 'nightmare' ones?
It's been awhile - come on Jason
