I'm still having problems. They are very rare for me. So much so that my faction lags at 2.72 unmodified while my corp is 8.86 and my agent is 9.31 unmodified as well.
My agent is lvl 3, 16 quality, 40 effective quality.
I have lvl 4 social, lvl 3 connections and negotiations and lvl 2 fast talk. I'm currently training lvl 4 connections.
I don't think this is bad luck, this has been my situation since castor. Looking at my standing you can see the huge discrepancy.
This "hack" needs another look for sure.

Everyone tells me they get 2-5 a day. I'm lucky to get one. I've been keeping track and I get 1 every 20-30+ missions, which takes many hours to do. At this rate, there is no way I will be able to keep up with decay playing casually once the holiday break is over.
I think my "important" mission frequency should be higher considering my standings with my agent and corp combined with my skills.

MrPops, one in 30 missions with 5.0 agent standing was the original intended chance for IMs. Originally the code was bugged so that it was one in 30 no matter what your standing was, then it was changed so that it would be one in (35 - agent standing), Papa Smurf commented that IMs would be made "more common", I don't know if he meant the above bugfix or if he's gone beyond that formula since then.
Keyword in all this is "was." Papa introduced a "hack" patch to make IM's more frequent. A ratio of 1 IM per (35- agent standing) would be torture in combination with a 5% decay. He has already stated that they need to revise this idea so in the meantime no decay and supposedly more common IM's. That's why you see people getting 2-5 IM's a day but others like myself are still under the old rule.
There has to be some kind of bug or perhaps I'm some kind of isolated situation with extreme bad luck (which the fix was supposed to help with a timer)
