And no I have not been on the gimp side of a high sec war myself.
The War Declaration fails in 2 major ways.
1 It becomes a way to pay off the police to pick on noobs. I know some of you feel this ability is vital to game play but it is not ant its bad game design. There is no reason to let a corp of bored mercs declare war on a corp of newbs where 5 or 6 people are trying the game and none have more than 3 or 4 million SP.
There is no challenge and no profit. All this does is discourage new players from staying in EVE and getting out of NPC corps.
2 Actually trouble makers just leave and reform corps as soon as they are War Decced.
The actual good reason behind being able to War Dec a high sec corp ends up totally failing anyway. There are "corps" that reform a couple of time a week just to shed War Decs.

Originally by: Graelyn This sort of weeping doesn't deserve constructive reply.
What you call bad game design is a deep part of the intended game mechanics.
If you disagree, you are silly, as the devs confirm this constantly.
Actually devs have confirmed more than one that they arent satisfied with the pay to grief noobs reality of the current mechanism.

Non Deccable Noob corps which never kick members - so recommpence against those empire huggin smack talkers unless you suicde gank them.
No stratigic member acceptance.

This is a good point but it would result in a wave of cancellation. In a perfect world anyone of 10 mill sp would be inserted automaticaly into faction war when they leave a player corp.

If you fail to war dodge your a feaking idiot.
Yes all noobs who quite the game because they cant make a corp with their friends while they learn the ropes are idiots. Id rather keep the idiots around a bit.

If people with no skill formed a corporation in real life, they would be demolished by their competition. Its no different in eve.
If you want to compete, be in a diversified corp or face getting shut down, no corp full of noobs only should ever feel like they have a right to exist.
AS someone who has been involved in forming a small corp IRL - you are full of crap. We are all still alive - we just didnt make as much money initially as we wanted.

Edited by: Ghoest on 06/05/2009 22:35:51 Telling newbs to fit frigs and fight back is silly.
If my real corp had a 5-20 man newb corp fight us in frigs it would be seriously funny stuff. It is possible that killing them would become boring and we would move on though.
