Alliaanna, your post makes no sense at all mate.
You are either misinformed or biased, let me get some facts for you.
1¦ The most rewarding profession in the game is miner in 0.0, so mission running, regardless of system security, will never compete with mining.
With capital ships, hauling the high end minerals to empire is not even a timesink factor anymore, nor a risk factor.
Implants, the best source of income from running missions besides the bounties, lose value everyday, to a point PvPing without implants will soon be laughable.
2¦ Mission running is dangerous, especially for the less experienced pilots.
I can rat for days in deep 0.0 without any risk at all. Zero, zip, nada: NO RISK
You can lose your ship very easily running missions, at least the harder ones, and even the most skilled pilots with officer mods can have a disconnect/crash and lose billions with only a very slim chance of getting reimbursed, while a crash ratting in 0.0 has no consequence.
3¦ Mission runners don't have access to faction/officer loot.
Well, I've been hunting in Deklein/Venal for very long and never saw a single officer, but some do.
I also know of many mission runners who don't have half the loyalty points to get a navy offer after 2 years playing neither...
4¦ Faction ships BPCs already drop from complexes, on top of very valuable loot.
Mission runners don't have any other choice than buying the good stuff from 0.0 pilots.
5¦ Lowsec is silly, moving all lvl4 agents there would simply kill the game. I'll never be playing there while I live in 0.0, for the simple reason that being ganked while having to deal with NPC spawns in a NPC fitting is ridiculous.
When ratting in 0.0 I fly a PvP setup because the rats are easy to tank, so if I get jumped on I can fight back.
I can't fight back with a NPC fitting.
More, I tried on several occasions to hunt down pirates in lowsec and simply gave up.
They either hide or gang: pointless.
0.0 is much more secure than lowsec.
In a nutshell, don't try to bend the game to your own needs, you don't see the big picture.
