It's dumb that something as complex and wide-reaching as an alliance is easier to disband than a war dec is to get approved.
I suggest that disbanding an alliance require a 24 hour vote from directors of the executor corp, similar to the vote required to approve a war dec. There may be better suggestions than this but at least this would be a good start.
This may have been raised before, but I haven't seen it mentioned lately and considering what just happened with CVA, it merits some attention.

There is no reason to have a "one click disband" option when there are so many other corporate/alliance protections.
simple fix, long overdue.

100% it's silly that it's harder to execute a war dec than it is to disband a multi-thousand person alliance - didn't they say they'd fix this after BoB?

Edited by: TeaDaze on 29/10/2009 00:30:59 At least the third time that this has happened.
It takes 24 hours to drop corp roles. It takes 10 hours before you can biomass a char.
It should certainly take at least 24 hours to disband an alliance and maybe 12 hours to kick a corp...

This is the very least that needs to be done. Better yet, CCP needs to adjust a variety of mechanics to allow corps and alliances to secure their assets and organizations.

1. CEO of executor corp pushes "Prepare to Disband".
2. Begin 48-hour timer during which time no corps may join or leave the alliance, no alliance dues will be paid, and no wars may be declared by any participants. Alliances declaring war against this alliance during this time are notified that the war may not last long because the alliance is preparing to disband.
3. All directors of all corps in the alliance receive a mail (and perhaps an e-mail as well?) announcing the button push.
4. All CEOs are given the option to vote against the disbanning. If one-third of the CEOs vote against, the alliance must be disbanded via petition so it will be investigated by CCP and made sure that the person who pushed "the button" is the person that rightfully owns the character.
5. After the timer expires with little/no opposition, the "Disband Alliance" button activates for 24 hours. If the button isn't pushed within 24 hours, it goes away and the alliance returns to a normal state.
Corp CEOs are only to oppose the disbanding if they believe the CEO of the alliance has been compromised.
Seriously... of all the timers and protections that different things have for the matter of security in case of account compromise... the disbanding of an alliance should be the hardest.

I concur with the OP...copied from my earlier post in CAOD:
The ability to nullify a power structure as important as a large scale player alliance from a single account is not right within the context of the universe CCP is trying to foster in my opinion.
Weather you like CVA and it's policies or not is irrelevant. This discussion should not be about politics.
Likewise this is also not a condemnation of the value that espionage and covert operations play within EVE. I strongly believe that black ops politics and spy games help make EVE such a great game, and help contribute to the sense that players are the ones who control and alter the history of the universe.
But if CCP wants to foster the growth of all kinds of player Alliances, security in the controls and mechanisms affecting large power structures need to be more thought out and formalized. It's not as if the CEO of a real life corporation can liquidate the company without the consent of the board. Democratic government figureheads like presidents cannot dismantle their governments with a single action without incurring retribution. Similarly there should be no such way to do a similar thing in EVE without at least a vote or formalized consent from the leaders of all the pre-determined affected parties.

CCP should also pursue anyone hacking accounts for meta-gaming purposes to the full extent of the law. If CCP has trouble with having enough logs to track hackers, then they need to log more info.
Anyone hacking for gaming reasons needs to be given real jail time to send a message that this isn't acceptable practice.

So when it happened to BoB it was all "Hell yeah!", but now that it has happened to CVA it is all, "Stupid game mechanic, it should be reversed and fixed!"
I could give a rip about either alliance right now, but the exact same thing happened before and CCP stood by their guns. I hope they do the same here as well.
Maybe if people would stop account sharing or giving too many people access to such power in a holding corp...

Originally by: Marlona Sky So when it happened to BoB it was all "Hell yeah!", but now that it has happened to CVA it is all, "Stupid game mechanic, it should be reversed and fixed!"
The topic is about fixing the broken mechanic that is being used to do this. It isn't about reversing the disband. I'm sure that during the BoB disband threads that the broken mechanic was discussed, but with all the lol posts it might have been missed.
I seem to recall that this is at least the 3rd time this has happened, but I can't for the life of me recall who was hit before bob...

Again we are not suggesting a rollback here.
We are suggesting that the mechanic is broken where (as I understand the process) you can kick corps and then disband the alliance in minutes when you can't even resign from a corp without dropping roles, which has a 24 hour cool off period...
Originally by: Marlona Sky Maybe if people would stop account sharing or giving too many people access to such power in a holding corp...
I agree totally there.
However there is a mechanism to stop people being kicked from a corp when they have roles and a 24 hour timer to strip their roles. There is nothing at all in place for kicking corps etc...

CVA were hacked, BoB were infiltrated, huge difference.
I approve of this product and/or service, 24 hour timer minimum, also how about an official alliance board of executives, that vote on such things. Not just from exec corp, but from ceo's of corps in the alliance?
Anyway, supported... Trust me, I almost know what I'm doing. |

Or you could limit who has access to the executor corp. (You're cool, here's the keys)
Or you could not share accounts. (Sure! You can borrow my carrier any time you want!)
Or you could not **** off people who will wait for revenge. (Did we say NRDS? Yes, but not like that )

Edited by: Wollari on 29/10/2009 11:11:55 Edited by: Wollari on 29/10/2009 11:10:38 The problem which most posters aren't realizing is:
There's not Button "Disband Alliance", you can only kick corporations one by one until no one is left.
My proposal:
1) Fast Change for Dominion: - You can only expell 1 Corporation per hour. This way a complete disband would take longer and would make it complicated do and getting uninteresting. When do you really have to kick more then 1 corp? Corps can still leave on their own without the delay (by pressing leave alliance). - Mail send to all Corporation CEOs/Directos of the Alliance that Corp XYZ has been expelled from the Alliance.
2) Longterm Change for Alliance Exucitve. - Alliance Executive Corp CEO can directly expell Corporations (1 per hour) - Directors have to make a Vote for kicking a Corporation (similar to war decs, atleast 2 directors) - Expell more Corporations per Hour: Vote Created by CEO. - Overhaul Corporation and Alliance Management Interface
I think that my first point should be easy to implement without the needed overhaul of the complete alliance/corporation management interface. It reduce the risk of a sudden death of an alliance.

Also, I supported this being fixed when this happened to BoB so naturally I will be supporting this again. Even though CVA are ultra-cheating ****s when they are worried they are gonna lose space to another alliance... *cough* jet canning 1000+ bookmarks from haulers during pos seiges to crash nodes *cough*...

SIGNED. I agree with all the previous ideas. Fully, 150% supported.
As an aside, HACKERS are the problem. Not infiltrators. Hackers get their jollies by hacking just for the ACTION of doing it, for the choas it causes, and for the publicity it generates. So speculating on whether it should be rolled back/reversed is a moot point. The fact that it happened, and that hacking is becoming a very serious issue is what needs to be addressed. Please CCP, for all alliances everywhere. FIX IT

One additional thought in support of this.
At Fanfest this year, one of the big themes was social networking and building communities in EVE.
If CCP think there is value in those things then they have to adequately protect them. The action with CVA is absolutely correct. Now they need to provide mechanisms to make sure people can protect their communities without having to be ultra-paranoid with absolutely everyone.
Sure EVE is dark and sure trust has to mean something (which is to say, it only means something if it can be betrayed) but some things are just a nonsense on stilts.
If it is wrong to let one character kill 300 ships with one weapon blast, then it's simply stupid to let one character destroy an alliance and all the history and shared investment people have in it.

It's the Perfect Problem (tm).
A simple to fix problem of a relatively simple mechanic that most people only know about through reading headlines, almost no knock on or side effects from implementing a tight voting system. All to fix a problem that hardly ever gets heard since it happens so rarely.
And the CSM will be able to claim credit for putting the Virtual Gun(tm) to CCPs head over it and all along CCP know that they just got some junior monkey who didn't stand a chance of being in the HTFU video to knock up a little vote window, and they made the CSM and it's myriad of fevered fanboiz feel like it was actually relevant and important.
One Perfect Problem (tm). May there be many more, just like it.

Absolutely - much better control is needed for something as complex as an Alliance.
Personally, I like the idea that as long as an Alliance has members (and their fees are paid) that the Alliance stays. The only way to 'end it' would be for all members to leave or the bills to be unpaid.
Of course in this case you would need a solid mechanism for preventing the "Kick everyone and then leave to close it" method - so kicking perhaps should be something that requires more than one person and a timer if the vote isn't unanimous.
My .02 ISK anyhow.

The issue isn't that metagaming is bad. To the contrary I think that it is amazing that we have people that care so much about EVE and playing that they spend years to build themselves into an alliance only to wreak havoc (hacking is different).
I think though that with the current mechanic they are able to wreak WAY too much havoc. Theres nothing wrong with a spy throwing a wrench into the cogs, but to be able to throw the entire machine out the window and ship it to Antarctica without anyone noticing seems a little extreme.
All we ask for is better management tools for something as complex as alliances so that all the eggs aren't in one basket. Yes spies can still do damage internally, but the ability for ONE PERSON to close out an entire alliance is a bit ridiculous.

Support, As the BoB episode and now CVA has shown, there is somthing broken when an alliance can just "dissapear" in 30 seconds. Plus, recovering from somthing like this can take weeks (for sov re-gains) and billions of isks (for re-creating the alliance, jobs, outposts, ect.)

While the drama is always entertaining, the mechanic doesn't seem like a good one. This becomes even more obvious when you compare the effort needed to disband an alliance to the effort needed do much simpler things. They often have timers/require voting, so it seems intuitive, that actions with greater affects would require similar safeguards at minimum.
A high level traitor could still cause critical damage and would remain very useful to the enemy, so you would still need to maintain high security, but the shenanigans would stay at a more reasonable level.

I'm all for a change to the mechanics, but there should still be a case where this can happen. If an alliance could have a board of directors, each with an allocation of votes per director, then you can still have a dictatorship, there is no rule saying you must have more than one director.
If in the case of many directors an infiltrator can get themselves in a position where they control the majority of votes (based on a share, not the number of directors) then well done, and much more impressive. Any alliance that wont give other directors some voting share has to be aware that there is one person who can take it down.
Leave it open to choice. If you want to run a dictatorship then you can, if you want to ensure there is oversight and checks in place to stop this, also fine.

The alliance mechanic should be more symbolic and ease the GUI rather than provide weakness to the system. It would be better if the alliance cannot be disbanded and members could only be kicked through majority votes, unless the alliance is specifically totalitarian.
Also the fact that Internet Spaceships IS serious ****ing business means that there will eventually be situations where people start paying RL money in order to get an alliance disbanded.
Removing this meta-gaming strategy will allow for alliances to properly be destroyed and will make for many more Epic battles. The whole BoB disband thing is not really respectable as it was not a gruelling battle of the forces but rather a sly deception and lack of trust. The CVA disband was the result of an outright hack, anything and everything they lost was due to something that was not just at all.

Edited by: Fille Balle on 30/10/2009 19:43:31 I've given this a lot of thought, and suddenly I had to laugh when I thought of the movie: "the emperors new groove"
The following scene plays out:
Esmaralda: Pull the lever! Cronk: *pulls lever* Esmaralda: Wrong lever! <a few seconds later> Esmaralda: *removes crokodile from buttocks* why do we even have that lever?
And I think that pretty much sums it up. Why do we even have that button? I'm sort of trying to imagine someone going:
"Oh! So that's how you create an alliance. Well, that was fun. Good to know! *disband* aw dang, I shoulda saved that! I could a' made some money off a that! Dang man! A ding dang doo!"
Not likely. So come on folks, why do we even have that button?
Edit: and if it's so useful, where's my "disband corp button"?

To disband a corp, you need to kick all the members fisrt, and then right click, close corp. Takes a lot more effort than: "whoops, ah well, didn't want that alliance anyways".

It's monumentally stupid that unlocking a blueprint takes a vote, dropping corp if you can so much as see the contents of a hangar takes 24 hours, but you can disband an alliance in the number of mouseclicks corresponding to the number of corporations in the alliance. |

Why do we need to vote on this still?
A RL spy cannot disband a nation singlehandedly...he needs high level cohorts, multiple cohorts/agents.
Only through verbal persuasion, bribes, deception of multiple people, shoul that be capable. That's a multi-vote feature by default based on RL "lore".
And a real bounty hunter system to hunt down these agents would be amazing. Maybe can't sell/trade character until bounty is paid to a licensed bounty officer?
See how Dog: The Bounty Hunter is now part of our game?
Make it so.

Regardless of mechanics, a cool-down timer and evemail to executor corp directors.

Not supported. It's the wrong solution to the wrong problem.
There is no 'disband alliance' button, you kick corps until there is no-one in the alliance except the executor. It should always be possible to lock down rogue corps and kick them from the alliance before they can do damage, what's needed is a better way of managing that than the current implementation.
Bear in mind that the potential damage is more than simply role abuse, it bleeds over into other areas that can't really be addressed by mechanics - such as trust and misinformation. You can strip an individual's roles and kick him 24 hours later because there's not so much damage he can do in that time as a single person with (presumably) limited access to anything important. If you lock down an entire corp in that way however you open yourself to problems with misunderstandings, allies not getting the 'don't trust these guys they are getting kicked' messages and a massive potential for drama during whatever pre-kicking period you have. Far better from an alliance-leader's point of view to simply cut them loose and set them red, that way there's much less chance of problems and everyone can see exactly where they stand.
So, while I agree that a single individual shouldn't be able to disband an alliance, I don't agree with any of the solutions put forwards in this thread. --------------------------------------------------------------

I didn't know about CVA but the first thing that came to mind when I read the title was BOB. It should be a timer and a vote at least.

It takes 24 hours to drop corp roles. It takes 10 hours before you can biomass a char.
It should certainly take at least 24 hours to disband an alliance and maybe 12 hours to kick a corp...
This ^^
the whole BOB thing was before my time. However, it was still ridiculous to read about. Now with a CVA hack on top, things need to be done.

What happened to BoB is a travesty. They might not have been a well-liked alliance, but to have an entire alliance destroyed because of a single defector is just ridiculous.
