One of the recent updates enable for experience points accumulation via the destruction of NPC's .
My idea is somewhat more in the line of EVE standards
Instant of accumulating XP points , you increase Attribute levels for a short duration of time
Example when attacking NPC or PVP you get an increase to Perception and Willpower
Or when performing laboratory operation you get an increase to the Intelligence and Memory
When you performing actions in the market selling and buying you get increase to the Charisma and memory
And so on you get the idea. |

The idea I get is that you're describing a game that's more akin to World of Warcraft

This is a bad idea. EVE is a game about freedom, and what used to set it apart from every other game is it didn't make you do [insert stupid repetitive task here] to level up. The less directed the gameplay is, the better. This game is all about plan-and-execute: you figure out what skills you want, then choose the map you need to get them fastest. Or you just throw in some +3 implants, not care about perfect efficiency, not remap, and go have fun with the game.
We had a threadnaught about the undock-to-kill-a-rat-for-XP. Daily "reward active players" type of features is for games so devoid of interesting things to do, they have to threaten you with an efficiency drop to get you to log in. Slightly less insidious is to not give you the latest pretty thing.
That's why they had riots over skill injectors the first time they were announced: they let you buy XP for credits.

Also...
The moment you create significant and tangible rewards for doing something... especially something as all encompassing as skillpoints... it becomes less than optional.
The 10k skillpoints that people got from killing a single NPC (which has not been removed) showed a small glimmer of this. There were some people who wrung their hands over missing that bonus... or wanted it increased... or wanted the 22 hour timer reduced or removed. They dedicated time (a small amount of time, but time nonetheless) out of what they normally do to destroy an NPC just to get that bonus.
Basically... your idea penalizes people for not doing certain things (that they may or may not want to do) in order to gain extra skillpoints. This removes player freedom as Shallanna said.
How did you Veterans start?

Attribute grinding?
No thanks, CCP are looking at ways to get rid of attributes not make people grind for them IIRC.
Civilized behaviour is knowing that violence is barbaric, but paying other people to do it is business.

Still no.
Eve Minions is recruiting. Learn from about pvp, learn about ships and how to fly them correctly. Small gang and solo action in high, low and nullsec and w-space alike.
We will teach you everything you need and want to know.

Neat. short duration of time 1 laser, however many reppers it takes to heal off that DPS. A cap stable build and you're in a "PvP" engagement that lasts hours.
