So those screenshots are showing Brackets, which are those colored squares. They indicate a ship, and are colored based on how your alliance / you have opposing alliances set. Because space is dark and whatever, it'd be impossible to navigate or see where targets are without brackets. Normally you'd see things like this.. (note this is a completely unrelated fight)

In this screenshot, the Grey brackets are hostile to us, and our fleet (the purple brackets) are bombing them. (bye bye talwar fleet)
The screenshots are accurate, and so are you, in saying it just looks like a clusterfuck. This is a fight where over 2,000 people are in a single system (a zone) all fighting at the same location. The second screenshot I posted in my first page post is intended to just be confusing as fuck. Someone took a screenshot of a cluster of drones, of which each capital ship has 10, and a regular ship has 5, so there are an endless amount of them, basically.
