Could we have some 'official' clarification on how LP offers work now, pretty please  . It is very confusing atm (at least for me )
 Does an agent stop giving offers permanently when you decline an offer and don't do any more missions for that agent or does the standard offer time(5 days iirc) stay preventing a new offer from that agent for that time ?
How does it decide which offer to give, is it random or is it an offer from the top 10 with the higher offers having the most chance of being offered?
anyone else that has a general question, add it  .
Thank you  .

Clarification would be nice ... or do I have to travel 37 Jumps to do another mission after being offered a 55% Navy Armour Hardner for 350,000 LP's for the 97th time.

Yeah, I'd like to see some clarification too - I've been doing a single mission after each decline, but now it seems I don't get an offer for quite a few days.
Some transparency would be nice. Does this time come down the more missions I do?

Apparently, agents give one offer per completed mission, or even rejected mission, although I can't confirm that. Basically, if you do a mission, you get an offer. It doesn't matter if you reject or accept the offer, you must do another mission to get a new offer. Note that doing 3 missions in a row doesn't get you 3 offers.
As for offer LP worth, they are more liberal now in offering less-than-worthy items. So if you have 20k LP, you might get 10k LP offers.

I put so much work in those nice stickies up there, but does someone read them? No! 
Question 1 is officially answered in one of the sticky threads. As an educative measure I'm not gonna tell which one 
Question 2 is secret. I don't know the answer, and if I knew, there'd be some black Jove frigs after me right now

Thanks for your reply, but the stickies above don't go into enough detail to answer my question.
Once you've done a mission after a refusal, is it a fixed timer before you get a new offer, a random timer, or a timer based on how many missions you've done for your agent since your last refusal?
ta in advance!!

Well, the info from the stickies is all I can give you (I honestly don't know any more myself), and I doubt you will get more information from the devs.
If you need more information, you will have to find it out yourself, by observation of your agents, and by exchange of data with other players
My personal guess as a mission-running player: The offer timer after doing a mission is random and does not depend on the number of missions, average time between offers seems to be about two days.

So, bascially its TOO hard for Tom B or Oveour to answer a thread
Dev interaction...with the community is LIFE to MMO.. and Constructive/Informative Information gives MMO Games stamina....

Do you want to play the game, or do you want TomB and Oveur play it for you? 
People like you who want everything presented on a silver tablet are the reason why the devs post so little here - every time a dev puts his head in here he's swamped with heaps of trivial and useless questions and requests.
The important facts about the offers are that you will not automatically get a new offer after accepting or declining one, and that you will get a new offer after doing at least one more mission, and those questions have been answered. You don't need the exact formula for the frequency of the offers, but you can make educated guesses by just playing the game for a bit.

It would be kinda nice to know if after rejecting the "latest Armour Hardner" whether you have to stop what your doing, travel 67 jumps and do a single mission to get another offer

I am with you on this one.. I would much rather play for 6 months and find out that I stuck myself on a crappy feature edit than having a dev clearly state the process early on..
I cant wait to build up 1m LP and find out they cant be used either.. To hell with those people who want to have the easy path and not spend years trying to figgure out how something simple works.. At least we know that the devs will not change how something works over the next two or three years and that makes me feel even more like your point is correct..

 No, and "redundant" followup is just waaaaaaay too silly to answer. (no you can't pump your agent for offers 24/7 until you get the one you want)
How does it decide which offer to give, is it random or is it an offer from the top 10 with the higher offers having the most chance of being offered?
It's obviously the latter, and the level of <censored> in that statement is unbelievable.
