I really wish CCP would consider a "weekend warrior" option for pilots wanting to do FW but still are afraid of the pod risks. I know a lot of people that are still not going to try this out because of this. Yet they'd love to play in a world with more active NPCs.
What CCP could do is make an option for a "reserves" type of class (member).
What it would do is allow you to have all the fun of engaging NPCs 'at will' and running missions in high sec. However no human player could fire on you without Concord retribution. IN turn you could not do the same. High-sec rules apply to real players.
Now the "gotcha" is that if you do accept missions, there is a chance that one could send you in to low-sec or 0.0 as always. When this happens, you are still using the rules of normal EVE. So the risk is there.
You could still fight in battles with others that are full time. You just have to accept the fact that, for that battle, you've just gone full active duty. And once again all normal rules apply and you become fair target for human players.
Once the kill-rights timers expire, like always, only then would you be safe.
Just a thought to open it up for more people to get more gaming experience and fun out of EVE. Playing with these more "active" NPCs is a lot of fun.
Sigh,
No need for pvp Flag. High sec missions are SAFER if you join FW, since wartargets are not really a risk in Highsec FW, and the only danger is random suicide gankers, who now get a caldari hit which is far far worse than any sec status hit. Suicide gank a few Caldari pilots and boom, you can no longer enter Caldari Space anymore, and regaining Caldari standing is almost impossible once it drops too far (at least on testserver a while back, unless they changed it)
Its not practical hunting mission runners in high sec due to the fact the navy is like concord, warping to any safespot of a wartarget in your friendly navy's high sec. And the numbers scale per player so spider stanking is not feasable either.
You are asking for a feature that is not needed and does nothing.
