Mission ticker stops when logged out or not in game

[Rath]

It would be sensible for the mission timer to stop when you are not playing the game or logged in.

I expect various folks have taken a mission, then had something important to do in RL and had to log - only to find the mission expire and them taking a hit on Faction...

Since players actions affect the universe, and your mission is part of it... I guess it won't happen, because the interaction it has and affect by and on other players.

Indeed, there have been many threads on this subject and I don't think that it's something that could or should be done I'm afraid. As has been said all missions taken affect the whole Galaxy in some way or another and not just for you, but also for everyone else.
