Can we just call it "misioneering"?

And the people who do it are "missioneers"?

I mean saying "I'm running missions" and "I'm a mission runner" or "we're seeking mission runners for our cop" is just so unweidly. Let's just make it an official jargon.

Speaking of which, if you're a missioneer I would like to have a word with you.

Definitely. Every other profession has a similar word, why not us missioneers.

-1 Missioneers sounds like mouseketeer which causes me to visualize a Mach with giant Mickey Mouse ears.

Not cool.

I run security missions...but I kinda hate the title missioneer. It implies that I would run all types of missions, which I do not.

What did you want to discuss with mission running pilots? :)

How about missionary?

In the interest of full disclosure, I am bored to death when I am doing missions and tend to avoid them until I need a sec status boost.

I was thinking Musketeer, but I like mouseketeer more. After all mouseketeer reminded me of Full Metal Jacket, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmILOL55xP0 "M I C K E Y M O U S E, who's the leader of the club thats made for you and me..."

Because there is nothing "pioneering" about running missions, every one of them has a how-to manual on the mission reports website.

Is anything on EVE "pioneering"?
