I have some repetitive missions on my list. A few of them I have done a few times and they havent been removed.

So I was thinking maybe you should have them tabbed into specific types of missions. And update them to be a little more in depth like the newb mission at the beginning with the captain interacting with you ... although only talking it keeps me interested at least a little.

You might be interested in the PCC. I would love more than anything to take out the repetitive stuff like beginner/advanced combat practice and replace it with bulks of individual missions, and that's why the PCC is trying to do that: one custom designed mission at a time.
