I've lived and done missions in low sec practically since I first plugged into the pod.
If you're smart, it's real easy, you make good rewards, and you never get caught.
If you're not smart... well... you end up making posts like this about things like that happening to you.

I'd invite you to come to the Drone Regions and run missions there ...
but we don't have Missions in the Drone Regions. 
Thanks again, CCP

Fixed that for ya. Sometimes attacking a rich mission runner is about more then the PvP.
There is always someone looknig for the easy score rather then grinding missions or rats the hard way. Please.

Originally by: Tegashi Killing mission runners is a pretty low and dirty practice. In many cases, the odds are so stacked against the mission runner that they don't have a chance. This doesn't qualify as 'PvP' in my view, only griefing since it's such a one-sided engagement.
The WoW comment makes me chuckle. The same 'PvP' douchebag mentality strongly exists there too.
What pirates should do is initiate a convo, ask for permission to come into one's mission for a little bit of a tussle, then let the mission-runner form the gang, and they both agree to certain terms during the pirate's warp the the mission space.
This needs to be implemented as pirate etiquette punishisble by a banning of the pirates account if broken.

Originally by: Tarminic Then you shouldn't be in low-sec. Anywhere in EVE you risk being destroyed if you leave the hangar. Missions are no exception, and low-sec is especially risky.
And what? Run missions in high sec where the players invading missions and stealing salvage tell you to go to low-sec if you want to be able to fight back?
Give me a break.
And for the obvious braindead retort (not directed specifically at you Tarm): "Fly in a PvP fit and do them in low sec!!!lolz!! duh nub!"
Fitting for a mission and pvp at the same time doesn't work and you know it. And if you don't know it, don't talk about it. -- Support fixing the EVE UI | Suggest Jita fixes

Remember your other thread? It isn't "stealing" the salvage, it is intended game mechanics.
And it doesn't happen if you stay out of the main mission hubs...

Tegashi:
Whether attacking someone who doesn't want to be attack is low is completely irrelevant. Have you even realised that EVE is a game that has non-consensual PvP as one of it's core mechanics? If you are in space, you are a valid target for anyone who wants to shoot at you. It's as simple as that. There is no where in EVE except a station that is 100% safe, and it's going to stay like that.
There are many, many people in this game who don't like PvP, and avoid it completely. This is because they use their brains and make an effort instead of expecting everything to be given to them.
WoW PvPers are also irrelevant. At least there the carebears have some semblance of a valid argument, because it's not a game that claims non-consensual PvP is one of it's core mechanics.
If you don't like that in EVE, then no one is forcing you to play. Overused? Yes. But it's the truth. EVE is EVE, and you either have to accept that and work around it, or go somewhere else.

Yes, if you don't want to get your ship blown up, then stay in high sec, with their nothing rewards, and deal with the fact that people out there just like to grief you by stealing your salvage for giggles.
OR... you could get out of the giant mission hub and find a less populated place where that thing doesn't happen. Motsu is not your friend.
And you clearly know nothing of running missions in low-sec, so don't even comment on them until you've done them.
You absolutely don't need a PvP fit.
So hush unless you know what you're talking about, Nubenstein.

Killing mission rats is a pretty low and dirty practice. In many cases, the odds are so stacked in favour of the mission runner that they don't have a chance of losing. This doesn't qualify as 'a game' in my view, since it's such a one-sided engagement.

Originally by: Mambo Ted Why did someone think this was a good idea??
I'm doing a Level 4 mission 'Enemies Abound' (tricky enough as it is) i notice reds in system and go to station to wait for them to bugger off. Meanwhile they've probed out the spot and finished it off and taken what i needed to complete it. So now i've lost standing and a very lucrative mission.
Ace. That was fun. The excitment never ends.
If your doing a mission you should be undiscoverable to PvPrs.
Dunno if this has been mentioned yet, but would you then come cry when pirates took L1 missions in the system to be invincible while probing you down? I would say this is the worst idea ever since the guy wanting a necromancer skill in EVE.

QFMTF.
Keeping in mind, I'm a non-whining, smart, adapting low-sec mission runner, I fully endorse being able to scan down people in missions, salvage their stuff, and blow them up.
It keeps things interesting, and in this age of nerfs, one of the few things that keeps me in this game.

Sounds great. Because I have to say, there is nothing hard about grinding missions.
It is, however, incredibly boring.

Oh and pirates don't get an opinion on this. Nice easy griefing for them though it is...
Congratulations on responding in your alt post thread and revealing your main. CVA pigdog.
So basically you want great reward with no risk? I think you wanted this.
Correct me if Im mistaken here, but don't CVA hold a reasonable area of 0.0 space. Assuming thats the case then isnt the OPs post riddled with hypocrisy: its ok to other blow people up in 0.0 / low sec - but it shouldn't happen to me!

1. Start a (free) trial account.
2. Create alt character.
3. Load alt in on second copy of client.
4. Park alt at mission area entrance as you mission.
If hostiles come in, dock and log while watching with alt. (Mission areas despawn still when you log, right?) When hostiles leave, log back in and continue.
Or just do missions in high-sec.

If your ship isn't in it, there's not anything left in there for the probes to lock onto.

I applaud your attempt at an actual suggestion rather than trolling.
However, Missions do not despawn when you log. Hostiles will not just leave, they'll break your mission so you cannot complete it.
