Proposal, reinstate the ability to target missiles/torpedoes, this is space if I can click on it I should be able to target it, watch it and arguably warp to them/bookmark them but I don't require that as CCP may have nerfed that for whatever reason they do that. 
The absolute minimum goal is regaining the ability to target enemy missiles, in space my ship should be able to target them and if I so choose do so and maybe even try shooting them down without equipping and firing crappy defender missiles. Also I enjoy clicking on them and watching them fly to and fro their targets every now and then. It should be possible to allow targeting of enemy missiles at least and that doesn't mess with being able to bookmark/warp to them.

Why the heck would you view that as a useful ability?
Seriously? Did you even take the time to think about it?
By the time you lock on to a missile/torpedo your too late...and you got many more headed your way.
I'm sorry but this idea is just fail.
Not supporting.
(I'd rather waste my ammo on killing the source anyway)
PS: Buff Defenders or come up with a Point Defense System... but not THAT.

That is ONE aspect of it and not the only reason, if that is all you see it as you should reread my post.
It isn't about being effective in combat it is about something that was allegedly removed for 'creativity', which *I* think wasn't a valid reason to do it. BUT if people are whiney about it, I don't see warping/bookmarking your missiles as a necessity so don't let them do it but why kill something when it isn't required to do what you want? You want to kill that fly in your house do you burn down your house? Do you smash it with a hammer, putting a hole in your wall/tv/etc, no you use the appropriate response to deal with it.
Here they killed something when all they needed to do was modify it.

What does being in space have to do with being able to target anything and everything? This is Earth, if I can put it in my mouth I should be able to swallow it. Both of these statements use the same logic.
I honestly don't see any valid point to this idea, and I think it would be a waste of time. Unfortunately, not supported.

One aspect? I alluded to several...but ok man...whatever floats your boat.

How the hell is it considered "creative" to be able to target something designed to fly at a high rate of speed and impact before anyone gets the chance to react? The only missile you'd have half a chance of taking out is a Cruise Missile and people hardly use them in PVP for obvious reasons. Making this idea clearly foolish to be sure.

Again... what the heck usefulness is it to bookmark a missile? Think about this... your typical missile is going to be within 100km of your ship. Is it really going to be that helpful? This is truly reaching at best. Are you even thinking of the same kind of equipment? Or Something else?

No I'm going to nuke the other house that's shooting said flies at me with near impunity and total destruction.... wake up and smell the quafe pal... your losing it mentally if you can't figure that out.

Probially because it's a complete waste of time and no one's going to use it.
AGAIN...if you had read my post smart@$$ before you decided to troll me you'd got a nice little hint of a even better idea.
It's called Point Defense System.... makes defenders look like specks of sand in comparison.
