If you have trouble with war decs or the war dec mechanics just leave high sec. The rest of EVE is constantly at war with everyone unless they're blue (and even then sometimes). Seriously.
The ONLY use for war decs is in high sec. Nah don't give me crap about low sec, no one in low sec is worried about gate guns or sec status. No one. You tank it, or you bring logi, or both.
It's high sec carebears who cry about war decs. High sec structures can be targeted. And carebears who forget their renter corp/nullsec alliance is under war dec and get popped on the way to or from Jita because they're too dumb or forgot to use a neutral hauling alt.
Seriously, this affects so few people it's laughable. And to those few who complain about it - what, you think "high sec" means absolutely risk and consequence free? No, your stuff can be popped in high sec too. At least you get 24 hours' notice. Don't like it, take everything out of your POS/Citadel and put it in someone else's or an NPC station. Too lazy to do that? THEN YOU GET WHAT YOU DESERVE.
Or you could always, I dunno - defend your stuff. |

Now ask yourself, why the ability to destroy player assets without the aggressor being destroyed by CONCORD is so important that CCP devoted time and effort to create wardecs as an exception to the already existing -and quite complex- crimewatch mechanic? And who is favored by this wardec mechanic? Carebears? PvPrs? Who's being pampered by CCP...?
You have a 24 hour notice. Why do you think you're so special that your assets must last absolutely forever with no risk in this game? If you're not prepared to defend your assets, take them down. You can take a POS down in a few hours. A citadel is a little more complicated but hey, if you're in a position to afford a citadel then you're good enough and popular enough to defend it, right? RIGHT?
Wait, does this come back to "don't fly what you can't afford to lose?" Boohoo I bought a citadel with PLEX and now I can't afford/don't know how to/don't have friends to defend it.... well whose fault is that? Maybe you shouldn't have plonked cash on a citadel thinking you can "pay to win".
As to "the ability to destroy player assets without the aggressor being destroyed by CONCORD", you realize that you can do it to them too, right? This is not a one-sided situation. Unless you absolutely cannot fight, in which case maybe you have misunderstood the nature of the EVE universe. |

People in hisec are most likely either.
War decs were never meant to "get people out of hi sec". They were meant to prevent people from being untouchable in high sec.
Being war decced is an opportunity. Sure, they can kill you. But you can kill them too. If they outnumber you, well perhaps THAT is your problem. EVE is a multiplayer game. Don't expect to be able to play solo 100% of the time. |

Or just change regions. Or better yet, hang out in low/null sec for a week. Because hi sec war deccing corps NEVER go to low/null.
Or you could play an alt that's in another corp. You get 3 toons per account. There are lots and lots and lots of ways to keep playing EVE that week and avoid ALL consequences of the war dec. |
