Hi!
i don't know if this has been proposed before but I have an idea about making courier contracts more viable and courier missions more eve-like.
Eve's one of the selling points' is that pretty much everything is played-manufactured. Missions on the other hand are crafted by CCP, which is fine because they have to control the isk in/outs. My suggestion is that; why don't courier agents pick their missions from the courier contracts currently in their region? If there is none, then pick one from generic ones. People will try to pull traps/scams/tricks, but these happen every day in eve :) Or better yet, let the player choose either a generic courier mission or a played courier contract.
What do you think?
some previous ideas of mine: It would be nice if there were more filters for the market, such as "show items that I can use only" which is based on skills or a race filter which would only show the selected race's equipment (i guess that would only apply to ships.) I know that there are red and green flags which indicate whether you can use a particular item or not but with these filters the computer would have to download and display less items on the menu, meaning less load. (yes, these filters are in some games :) )

The only problem with having agents give out player generated missions is the fact that the scamms would effecitively block courier missions.
If I get a scam mission, and reject it then get given another I cannot reject it for 4 hours without lossing standing. At the momement CCP can control the number of risky missions that are offered.
Also if players are forced to do courier missions for other players, people will get the collatral to a very high level and payments as 1 isk.
Unless CCP completly reward the way that players set up courier missions so that they cannot be a scam and provide an acceptable level of payment it will not work.

My suggestions for making courier missions more useable can be found here.
It doesn't involve agent missions, since I agree it would be blocked by the "1 billion security 1 isk reward" missions

There is one idea about missioning in general.
A system-wide mission pool.
You can list and select any available (for You) mission in this system, including player-issued courier missions.
And this idea may force players to move across the galaxy to find missions, when there are no available missions in the current system/constellation. (that also can help to avoid player globbing in specific systems).
