I believe he's talking about PvP missions.

Technically not a bad idea, but I'm not sure it can be balanced right -- both from reward perspective and from not making hisec too hostile.

Indeed. Plus, being a "real" pirate requires the long lost skills of patience and seeing when opportunities open and close. Pirates that go into a situation "guns blazing" rarely last long. Blink

The mechanics to be "evil" are already there (or rather... there are few mechanics encouraging people to be "good").
Just fit a gank destroyer, hunt down the closest Covetor, and overheat your guns. Or join a mining corp, wait til everyone goes on a mining op, show up in a combat ship with multiple points, and murder everyone.

How did you Veterans start?

We don't need PvP missions. This is a SANDBOX game. You can have PvP anywhere. The incentives are clear, you don't need a mission telling you to do it. Terrible idea imo.

Pirate way in this game is well defined.
