Small idea that I once brought up a while back, before lps, but one I still think is worthwhile. Basically I find it vastly annoying when I look up my own standings and have to wait a minute or two for "liked by" list to populate. Given my age in game that list is rather extensive and I can quite happily live without a couple of hundred entires there. So, I wondering if possible could we have the ability to "forfeit" our relationship with any agent we have positive standings with.
Also, having 6 points or 8 pts or 14 pts with this agent or that agent is wasted space. Actually that's the whole point of this idea, if it is of no benefit to me I don't want to be bothered... and that should be within my choices to forfeit positives. I'm also sure that there could be some small benefit from the removed database entries on those people who choose to do this.
But, the idea is small. Perhaps within easy reach and might make some difference. Who knows.
/me shrugs.

I like this. You'd have to make sure there's a confirmation screen, of course, but the idea of getting those 15 LP from the Federal Intelligence Office off my screen makes me happy.

Maybe not forfeit the LP or Standing but simply don't list them if they are "Normal" or below anything in the LP store.
Even a Check Box for settings would be great.
I don't want to list anyone that I have standing with that is considered "Normal" and I also don't need to know I have 4 LP points in an agent I used once two years ago.

While I'm not sure I would want an option to forfeit my Standings/LP, I would kill for an option to hide them when I open that part of my character page.
Just needs a simple settings page with three sections. One for Factions, One for Corporations and One for Agents with the same options available for each
[checkbox] Do Not Show Standings of this Type
[checkbox] Show Standings Above [User Input Box] and Below [User Input Box]
[checkbox] Show All Standings
So, for example, I might want to see all my Standings for Factions (View All), but only my standings for Corporations I've done reasonable amounts of work for or have annoyed enough that Diplomacy won't get me back into Positive Standings (+3.0 or higher/-2.0 or Lower) and couldn't care less about my standings with Individual Agents (Hide All).

I'd prefer if there would be corporate roles and charisma based skills to negotiate exchange of standings and consolidating LP through the work of good corporate management. Something to encourage people to pick corporations with good management.

How about the ability to "Give" LP's to other people?

That would be part of the corporate management capabilities, corporate representatives negotiating redistribution within the corporation, trades, expulsion of records and such.

OMFG, the farmers are already cranking out faction missiles as fast as 5 men can run a level 4, do you want them to transfer their LP back and forth at will??

How about in the corporation? Anyone joining known farmer outfits to buy these services would certainly be blacklisted by us at least.

Giving LPs should be a new feature, but only to members of your corporation.
This prevents macros from exploiting it (as they are vulnerable to war-decs if in a corporation), and addresses the OP's concern.
As for standings, an option to sever your relationship with a faction (set it to 0), should be possible.

No giving away your lp's to other people. Much room for exploits, good for farmers,... But the original idea is great! Support.

What exploits? And what farmers? So far as I can tell, its primary use is to pool LP to buy expensive faction gear that none of the individuals in question can afford solo - a CNR, say. Also, it lets missioners unload their LP profitably without having to think about it or be bothered with the market. It introduces middlemen for those who want them - people who you pay to accept inconvenience from you - and that's all.
Besides, why would farmers need this? By definition, they run a lot of missions. Presumably, there's nothing in the store they can't buy, which means they have no need to sell the LP directly when they can value-add it by buying the profitable items from the LP store themselves and then selling them.
