Please CCP, stop the exploiters. My neighbors just called to say they're all projectile vomiting straight into each others faces due to the smell of sick pervading my apartment building's stairwell. All because of the mission-declining exploiters.

It's so sad.

Also, can you crown the OP King of Space for raising this?

Ok. I did a little more research on this exploit and indeed, it is possible to decline missions leading to lo sec, and thus avoiding having to PVP in a PVP game. In fact, I was offered two consecutive L4 missions leading to lo sec from the same agent. My findings not only made me hurl, but gave me a bad case of diarrhea as well.

I was able to decline the first mission without any penalty whatsoever. The second mission I only had to wait a mere 4 hours before being able to decline it! After declining the missions I hopped in a fast cloaker and headed to the lo sec system where I would have had to complete my mission and lo and behold, there was a gatecamp! I had just cheated these hard-working pirates from a fully pimped Navy Apoc kill!

I felt dirty inside, much like a scolded wh0re during biblical times. I immediately filed a petition and reported myself for exploiting and cheating the gatecampers of a 3-billion-isk kill. Hopefully this exploit will be dealt with, sooner rather than later.

Successfully doinitwrong™ since 2006.

Yet another quitter, overpromising and underdelivering.

Oh, I don't know about that. Fearless was supposed to generate interest and debate. It did that in [oops, is there an equivalent/synonymous non-historically encumbered word for spades?]!

Pon Farr Memorial: once every 7 years, all the carebears in high-sec must PvP or they will be temp-banned.

Pleas make it stop. My street has now been cordoned off by the police, the fire brigade, the riot squad and the National Hazmat Authority. There's sick everywhere, my wife has lost 5 kilos due to vomiting on the children and my dog is the most abject creature alive. I just saw an elderly man literally swimming through pools of vomit to get to safety, only to be turned back at the roadblock. The cops are starting to heave now too.

Before we know it the ebtire country will be awash with sour waves of vomit. All because of the damn exploiters.

yeah CCP needs to improve the exploit so that it actually does induce vomiting. Perhaps adding camera shake when declining a mission would do it.

Or just force people who decline through a warp gate...

You are right - Low Sec needs to be Lower Sec than it's current Sec rating, but still higher than Null Sec, but not so high that it's mistaken for "not so high Sec". That way Mission Runners will somehow be confused as to which Sec players are allowed to shoot other players in, there by advancing the cause of the righteous brotherhood living in the same Sec as the former Low Sec....... Somewhere between Limbo and the Real World.
