My corp has been perma-dec'ed by some random 2 person corp. (going on 2 months). They are rarely on and never engage unless they catch one of our noobs (which has happened twice in about 2 months). If we do catch them on, they dock up and don't come out - obviously they are off playing on a second account or getting lunch. They do not respond or communicate with us. The mere fact that we are at war detracts from recruitment, though honestly that's about the extent of the effect it has on us. It is a laughable annoyance which we basically ignore, but somehow seems wrong that this can happen, and that there is no counter.
Any useful suggestions would be appreciated. Troll-posts are ok also, but only if they are amusing - not dumb stuff like 'u mad bro' and 'can i haz your stuff'! Put a little effort into it. |

The options i can think this early in the morning are fight dirty, surrender, hire mercs. or to drop to an npc corp for a week or so. Now would be a good time to think about whether or not you can run a corp proper. Nothing bad intended. Please do not point out alt-posting, CCP considers that trolling and will take action. |

Fill your corp roster with blank alts (ie. the other 2 slots on account) .. get number high enough and it starts costing the lazies more ISK.
Bloat is the new Dec shield. Love it, or hate .. whatever floats your boat .. but abuse the snot out of it. |

How do you fight someone who is rarely on and doesn't seem to want to fight? Why hire mercs? This is a nuisance, not a threat. Same with joining an npc corp. I think maybe you didn't really 'get' my issue here. We'd welcome fights, or interaction of almost any kind. It just seems weird that we have to permanently be 'at war' for no apparent reason.
Is that the answer? Load up the corp with worthless alts just to game the system? I guess we'll do that, but it seems kind of ridiculous. |

Fill your corp up with alts and start a recruiting drive.
Making yourself more expensive to dec is the only defense against decs anymore.
Also consider joining an alliance (which every member in the alliance counts towards the wardec cost). |

You can also drop corp, disband corp, and reform a new corp with the similar/same name and ticker. Dec slipped, no problem. Single-Shard, Player Driven-áSandbox.

Indeed. In the future, I caution you against attempting to apply common sense to this game's mechanics.

From OP, they've lost some ships, so the attacking corp has fought. Single-Shard, Player Driven-áSandbox.

Keep those two as a way to train your rookies to be a little cautious. The rookies shouldn't fly expensive stuff, if they cannot use the watch list and local chat for intel anyway. And if they are cautious, then there is no problem. All small stuff can be replaced easily. |

I'd check on their corp accounts and see who they have been transfering /receiving contracts from...might give an insight into who they really are.
At which point you can punish them!
Through to be honest, being at war with somebody is good because it keeps all the weak sisters away and gives your corps something to train around,

Strictly speaking, it sounds like you're doing fine - just teach your new players to watch local for war targets, and to report in corp when they see war targets. If it becomes more of a problem, you could even organize to scout where these two people are, as there are plenty of tools to know whether or not two people are a threat to you.
Another option is to open your corp up to allies. Plenty of people will join your war for free for more targets to shoot.
I guess what I'm saying is I don't see how you have a problem. |

Step 1: advertise your war for allies Step 2: Accept any offer which comes with 0 ISK fee Step 3: wait 7 days for them to get a bill Step 4: Join an alliance to jack the fees up even more Step 5: ??

Why do you want to get rid of the war? ItGÇÖs not really affecting you, and itGÇÖs not a bad thing at all to have it on. It will help with corp discipline and teach the noobs to lose ships, to be on their toes at all times, and to fit ships accordingly. All these things are good for when a real war happens, AND it actually acts as a shield against more lame 2 man wardecs, since additional war decs have to pay more. |

Actually for a 2 man corp you're probably going to need to look for vaguely legitimate allies, since relatively few random griefing corps will be interested in joining a war with only 2 aggressors and the ones that do probably won't be effective. Unless the aggressors are particularly ******** and bleed faction fit vindicators or something then someone good might jump in.
Same reason nobody wardecs a 2 man corp, it's not worth the effort even if there is no cost attached. |

I for one will ally up with you for a 0 ISK fee. Just because it's cool. Send me a mail in-game. It's very simple, really. If you see Tengus on scan, they are ratting. If you see a shitload of Tengus, the Russians are blobbing. If you see Proteuses on scan, they will be on top of you in about a second. If you see a shitload of Proteuses, the big boys are having a goodfight. |
