What do you think is the most boring part of the game?

That you consider reading the forum a part of the game speaks volumes.
Forums are an integral part of every MMO... even though this game is more like a Massively Instanced Multiplayer Online game with the whole cap-at-32 thing.
Anyway, I pretty much can't stand mining. But that didn't surprise me. I don't mind super-cruise at all... although I think the return on exploration should generally be higher.
Not every MMO gives you so much downtime to alt+tab and read the forum or make posts while "playing" it, though.
LOL.... for you maybe. For me i find exploring extremely interesting and fun.
Personally i find trading the most boring, so have done very little of it, although i appreciate some like it for the challenge of finding interesting and profitable routes.
Each to their own
Supercruise. It's just so slow and boring. It takes too long to speed up and slow down, and no matter how hard I try and how careful I am, and how close I pay attention, I still overshoot a bunch. I know the "trick" of waiting until you're eight seconds away and then pulling the throttle back from 100% of 75%, but I still end up overshooting. Plus supercruising near planets is soooo slow. If you're trying to move from a RES to a station orbiting the same planet it's like pulling teeth.
Every other part of the game I can at least accept as being made for a particular kind of player, but supersnooze I just can't accept. I don't have a choice, so I deal with it, but I don't like it. It's the only part of the game that I cringe when I show it to potential new players.

Trying to get from one location to another within the same system, which becomes very tedious after a while. This is especially true if your destination is over 10 minutes of flying away. There should be some type of mini-jump mechanism in game for any destination further than 5k light seconds.
1. Supercruising just looking at the speed meter slowly going up, up, up and then slowly down, down, down...
2. Waiting to dock at stations where other ships are occupying the landing pads.
3. Using the lift at stations. Even if I land, choose to NOT go inside the station, and take off I still have to use the damn lift to go down, spin around, and up again. I mean, really?

Travelling, lack of missions, finding trade routes, etc.
But I think the good in this game outweighs the bad
Most boring:
Serching for 1+ hour for just that right USS with the right stuff in it.
Second:
Wedding barge, funeral barge, Mineral Magpie and all the other non-interactable and endlessly repeating NPC's in said USS's.
Otherwise an entertaining game.

Oh I forgot to add, SERVER MAINTENANCE!!!!!!!
That reply accomplishes nothing. What are you implying? That because you find it fun everyone else does? Or that they should? You don't address the issues that were stated ("just stars and rocks") and you don't provide any counter examples of things that are more interesting than that, or why stars and rocks are actually more interesting than he claims.
All you do is marginalize an opinion you don't agree with. Why?
