I have not read this whole thread because I have already read 400 other such threads on the subject before and nothing ever gets agreed upon. Both the Carebears and Pirates have an absolute stance and no one is going to cross the line. {Well currently, it is the bears who have to cross a line}
The only thing I can think of that would get me into low sec running missions is to make Mission Runners totally immune once they reach their missions whether that mission is deadspace or not. Once I reach it, I cannot be fired upon.
This sounds unreasonable and takes away from the value of probes and things of that nature but i just don't see any other way. Forcing someone into a PvP situation while they are engaging in PvE in a multi billion isk ship just isn't going to happen. {at least not to anyone smart.}
The trade off would be pirates could still gank Mission runners at gates coming into the system or at the stations.
Increasing rewards and moving lvl 4's into Low sec won't work. Either people will find another profession, Run lvl 3's or quit the game. As the mechanics are now, I won't even take a T1 Raven into Low sec to run a mission. Why should I?
Also, people shouldn't bash the OP. At least he was out front and honest with his intentions for starting this thread. Usually when one of these pops up, it is a thinly veiled "boost low sec" thread created by a ganker who has a different agenda. I have no beef with people who are honest even if I don't agree with them.

Honestly, it is fine the way it is. PvPers are always running their mouthes here about how EvE is "Dark and Harsh." Well I guess part of that harshness is that they are going to have to fight themselves since they have no easy ganks.
It is Darwinism...suck it up.

So...how to 'fix' the problem? Of course....if they won't come to lowsec of their own free will, then change the game and remove the choice from them. Make them come to lowsec! Then everything would be just fine again (for the pirates).
Who has suggested removing anyone's choice to come to low-sec? Are you so dense that you can't understand the concept of "incentives". People make economic decisions. If low-sec is made more lucrative, some players will decide that the high risk is justified by the potential earnings. Some will become rich, some will find themselves on the wrong end of my 8m skill points in gunnery. That's how it goes. Just like some people invest their RL money in secure investments like government bonds, others invest in high risk startups, hoping that some company could be the next Cisco or Microsoft. If you don't want to go to low-sec, that's okay. There are plenty of lower-yield, but safer opportunities in high-sec. No one is being forced. Gawwd.. I don't know why people can't understand that.
Maybe you should learn to read. There have been multiple posts in this threads where the typical idiots suggests that High Sec be nerfed, LvL 4 missions removed from it and Empire asteroids hollowed out and empty so they cannot be mined. I am sure that was what he was referring to.
I really hope that isn't what you consider an "incentive." Yes an incentive to cancel a sub maybe.
BTW: You only have 8m in Gunnary? Next time you wave your e-peen around, make sure you have a stick worth waving.
