Right. This is my one qualm with the patch notes, and although I should probably put this in the discussion thread, I though an open, civil, discussion about why it should not be done is appropriate as anything.
I know a great deal of the Community do not advocate the removal of money from past missions, which I take to be any crits we've done and the archive missions, right? The main qualm I have is that I do not see the purpose, not in any way, shape or form.
The main, or rather, only ways of earning cash in any quantity at the moment are:
The story is important and fun, yes, but the incentive for me to run the missions is equally about the money. Now don't get me wrong, if someone runs all of the archive missions, all 180-odd of them, then they're going to be insanely rich, but we as players don't just want insanely rich, they want an entertaining way of making money, and at present, removing money from past missions is removing the entertainment factor from money making.
So, in that verbage somewhere is a meaning, i'm asking, as a single play, to the devs, not to do this, and allow to make money from past missions as many times as we want. I know /sign petition threads are frowned upon, but if the people posting in this thread keep it constructive and meaningful, a message to the devs at how much this is a bad idea will hopefully be created.
Overly optimistic? Yup, Probably the most optimistic thing i've ever done with this game, but goddammit, I have to try.

- Missioning.
- Farming
- Data Mining
- Selling stuff... I guess.
