The only thing that bugs me about the new wardec system is that it makes my eve mail icon blink more then before. But I did get a bit of a chuckle thinking these guys would be locked into a forever war.
Other than that, I still could not care less about wardecs. They have zero importance to people based in nullsec as we basically live in a state of forever war with any one that happens by.
It sure as hell isn't goons crying about the possibility of being shot on sight at any moment. |

In brief, 'The Goons' exist at a 'meta level' outside the MMO. They are like some kind of higher-order entity and as such they have an 'evolutionary' advantage.
So much so that we are the reason CCP never finished up with the Jove stuff. We are just so powerful and mysterious that they didn't have to bother making npcs to fill that role.
Next CSM, we are pushing for a goon faction ship. It will jam like a blackbird and use rifters like drones. |

3. exponential cost for every ally that joins a war beyond the first. 10,20,40,80,160,320 etc ... 44 allies now costs something ridiculous like 20 sextillion or something.
43,980,465,111,040 ISK for 44 allies. But it does not, as far as I am aware, limit the number of people each of those allies has in their corp. So you could have 44 allies, each with 6301 members in them, for a grand total of 277,244 people. When you look at it that way, the cost doesn't seem as ludicrous.
Going through all the ally notifications, and there are just a ridiculous amount under 10 member corporations. Lots of 3 member ones, which I bet are all characters on 1 person's account.
Again, I really don't care how the mechanics of wardecs work. Its kind of cool that Jade found a way to push the envelope on the current system, but the end result was just a billion personal tax dodging corps getting what amounts to a vanity wardec. They can say they went to war with the CFC for no effort or cost.
It would be cool if it really did get disparate groups to work together, but then again, those groups could just form an alliance and wardec as a single entity. But putting together an effective alliance is player made content, and we know most highsec dwellers have trouble grasping that idea. |

And lets remember another reality here. This is not hisec wardec people asking for a change in the in game to their benefit.
No, that is not a reality. That is just made up, and possibly a "rumor". The reality is that wardecs have never been a nullsec issue. At best they are a joke, at worst they are irrelevant. The only people that are going to have their game effected by wardecs, and would have any reason to complain, are highsec people. |

He opposed the 1.1 changes as he makes clear on the Crossing Zebra's podcast I linked you earlier where he expresses his great dissatisfaction with the team BFF developers on the issue.
You really are not very good at this.
my argument is "goonswarm doesn't give a flying **** about wardecs" his argument is "the number of allies should be hard-capped" obviously two completely separate and unrelated arguments, but neither of which you're in a position to agree with My argument is that he doesn't support the 1.1 change and nor does anyone else much outside the CFC.
And no one in the CFC gives a damn about the 1.1 changes, so go look some where else. |
