This is the first I heard of the fact that bpo offers from the research agent times out. I've had some real life problems (I've had to look after my Mother at her house as my Father passed away earlier this year) that have meant I haven't been able to play as much and now I find that I have lost the chance of an Ishtar BPO just because the I didn't know the damn things timeout. When I found the offer in my evemail I was really, really happy... went 50 jumps to my agent and then found it was all for nothing!
Well the only reason I kept up with paying for my 3 accounts was to keep in the research lottery and to keep my skill points going until I could get back playing in February next year. I've now decided to totally cancel my subscriptions for the first time since Eve launched.
CCP you really should let people know that the offer is for a limited time and then once the offer expires there should be an evemail letting us know that it is a waste of time to visit the agent. I spent nearly 2 hours travelling for nothing when I could have been doing other things.
Well that's my rant over. I may renew my membership in February possibly but for now it's adieu.

All I was moaning about was the fact that the system doesn't tell you that the offer had timed out... Nothing... Nada... Zip...
If I had found the offer evemail followed by another evemail saying it had timed out it would have annoyed me to have missed it but that would have been it. Or maybe an offer saying "you have 3 days to reply" would have made sense.
I still don't know how long they offer the bpo's for... it could be 24 hours for all I know... -------------------------------------------

On a bit of a brainwave I woke up early this morning and thought "hmmm where would it be good to have some notification of research breakthroughs... I know... The Journal"
Well I logged in and went to journal and found a new tab that actually DOES tell you about offers from your agent.
So I need to apologise to CCP... I just wished I'd have found this new feature before I did my 50+ jumps lol.
One question... RP = Research points... but what does LP mean?
p.s. I've decided not to quit (I know... yet again!) -------------------------------------------
