Back-to-back-to-back war-decs and war-decs that stack on top of each other quickly shoots that down.
And for what reasons did we get war-dec'd so often?
None at all... because they wanted to and they did.
If that is true (and i doubt it) its probably because of your constant crying on the forums attracting attention.
And from the sound of it you are doing nothing at all to discourage them.

Quote: I sympathize with the OP because I believe that there is something wrong when cowardly griefers -- and they are most definitely cowards or they'd be attacking someone of equal skill rather than shooting fish in a barrel by wardeccing newbs and industrialists -- can force people to not play the game that they are paying REAL WORLD MONEY for. I would like to have the ability to take revenge by being able to file some kind of mining-dec that would allow industrial players to declare a state of operations where members of the decced corp could undock only in mining barges, exhumers, industrials, freighters, ... so as to deny them their preferred activities -- which they pay REAL WORLD MONEY to engage in -- in the same way that a wardec denies industrialists the ability to engage in our preferred activities. As the OP gains more experience he/she will clearly see that the people who post most vehemently about how EVE is a PVP game are the ones who, rather than engaging in actual combat with equals, like to shoot fish in a barrel.

Originally by: Omega Flames A form of "Industry Dec'ing" actually isn't a bad idea.
A war dec doesn't actually stop you mining, it just makes it very risky without combat support. It also doesn't force you to fly only combat ships.
So the idea of an industry dec to force players into industrial ships is nothing like the same thing. I can't see how forcing people to bring "industrial support" could be added either, unless you have roaming asteroids that attack the PVPers and can only be taken down by hulk support.
But now we are getting silly

The ones worth deccing are the 8 month to 1.5 year people who think they know how to PvP and fly really nice ships. Or deccing a 300 man alliance that has a nice pos and wont come to defend it.
Deccing people who can only fly frigates and cruisers is just a waste of ammo. Still, war decs are fine the way they are. ************************************************* I have three characters. One has Cov Ops V along with all the bells and whistles that goes with it. |

I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.
Whats ridiculous is your bold faced enough to actually argue something that is obviously wrong and false.
I've known many many industrialist corporations... and they don't even pull some of the crap you even CLAIMED to do.
Argumentum ad populum.
Originally by: Drake Draconis Only corporations that do that are Greifing PVP'ers. PVP'ers don't like industry and only go so far as to make sure they have enough ISK to do whatever it is they want to do. I know very few who are actually good at both things as it is.
What you claimed are very (if at all) rare incidents and only possible when your corporation just happens to have a capable and good enough PVP force... that or you used a second corporation or hired a merc live everyone else.
Please... give it up.... we can see right through you.
Industrialist corps DO war dec competitors. Industrialist corps DO put contracts out on competitors. When an industrial corp gets large enough (requiring the ability to stave off attacks from competitors and high sec PVP corps), they attract the attention of alliances.
What you fail to realize is the biggest industrial corps are in null sec alliances. Where do you think they get all the minerals to build outposts, titans, super caps, and replace all those capital ships they lose? They don't buy them from dinky high sec industrial corps, that's for sure.
Short of a few months (when I joined two consecutive pirate corps after getting my first industrial corp bulldozed), I've been in industrial corps the entire 4 years I've played Eve.
The current corp cranks out a few dozen BSs/BCs a day and caps are built on a regular basis. Why can we do this? We also have a group of rabid PVPers in the corp who keep systems we mine clear, and keep our freighters safe.
Originally by: Drake Draconis Industrialists don't have time to "gank" freighters... What the heck kind of argument is that? You have any idea how much firepower and effort it takes to gank a freighter? Sure as hell won't be in a war-dec unless the other corproation is really that stupid!
As to ganking freighters (straw man argument)... I was showing you why PVP corps would attack an industrial corp without a contract from another industrial... when you kill a loaded freighter, you pull in a mountain of isk. YOU CAN MAKE MONEY WITH PVP. That is the point.
And I do know how much it takes to gank a freighter in high sec. The last time I was in on one, we attacked it with 19 BSs (tier 1-2). Fully fit, each lost somewhere in the neighborhood of 10-30m each from the difference between insurance payout and fittings. Each person received about 110m isk from the loot that was dropped and sold. That is a healthy profit for a few hours of grinding sec status and about an hour spent hunting a worthwhile target (not including the income from grinding sec status).
Originally by: Drake Draconis We don't have time to war-dec because "someone stole our omber belt". There are hundreds upon hundreds of asteroids out there... they just move on to a different system. Or move out.
Belts are less static than they used to be. As are plexes. You really don't have the systems that are end-all-be-all sources for industrialists. As such, a high sec industrialist corp should easily be able to pick up and move where the war dec becomes pointless. You have 24 hours notice for crying out loud.

Yeah wardecs are abused to the max by griefers and lamers and they need fixing. I just dont think you have the solution.
Wardecs ( mutual or otherwise ) are a valid way for corps who have a beef against each other to sort stuff out.
What I'd like to see is a wardec fee that gets exponentially more expensive the greater the difference in combat SP between the two corps.
Wardec fee = 1,000,000 x 10 ^ (( deccing corp combat sp ) / ( decced corp combat sp ))
or something similar.
So big groups of experianced pvp players would have to pay a small fortune to dec a noobie indi corp etc.
To stop large fee avoidance player cannot join a deccing corp until any wars they have declared have expired.
Oh and neutral remote reppers should get concordokkened for interfering in a legalised war.

I like how they don't actually solve anything either. I'm sure there are greifer corps who would be perfectly happy to skill up some low sp alt pilots and just do it with t1 mods and hulls instead.
Newsflash Dav, SP's are really only part of pvp, arguably not even that big of one. Certainly not the main part. -Jin Nib Trading on behalf of Opera Noir since: 2009.03.02 03:53:00

Edited by: Phobos Timor on 10/03/2010 22:44:31 Edited by: Phobos Timor on 10/03/2010 22:44:01 While Wardeccing is a bit broken to say the least there aren't many ways it could actually be improved, still I had a couple of ideas.
1. Pay for time The Wardeccing corp has to choose how long the war will last when they declare and pay an ISK amount per day. So just for example 10mil ISK per day, so a 4 day war will cost 40mil.
2. Keeping the peace Wardec costs are just bribes to Concord to look the other way, still no matter how much you pay them there is such a thing as going too far. Leave wardecs as they are but have it so that they are void in 0.9 and 1.0 systems, after all these are highly policed and civilised systems. You can't just have people disrupting the peace by blowing each other up outside of stations. On a more practical note it would give members of a wardecced corp at least some areas that could feel vaguely safe in, bar the odd suicide gank. Of course there's not much to do in 0.9-1.0 but such is the price of safety.
On another note, unless you're just really unlucky, if your corp is falling apart due to random greifer wardecs then odds are it's failcorp, either work together to do something about it or find a new one.

suggestion for fixing wardecs: pay per system. paying only 10m or so to bribe all concord officers in all hisec systems is a joke anyways. since extending to more systems must involve higher ranking concord staff, bribes should stack exponentially.

Wardeccing could use some tweaking as currently it is relatively easy to circumentvent with alts. Both on attackers as well as defenders side.
As wardec is relatively pointless activity atm it might as well removed as it's only useful atm for harassing n00bs who do not know how to use alts. Everyone else (including me) has already NPC corp freighter alts.

Originally by: Kilostream Edited by: Kilostream on 27/02/2010 12:02:49 To the OP,
The thing here is that war decs only lasts for a week.
My recommendation would be to train a bit of pvp skills - not too much, get everyone to spend a couple weeks on some missile / gunnery / propulsion jamming / mwd, then build yourself I dunno, 20 rifters (or similar) each and pvp fit them.
Tuck them away in a hangar and go about your mining.
When you get a war dec, treat it as a holiday from mining and go pew pew for a week - I guarantee by the time you have burned through 20 rifters each you will have made many mistakes, learnt much about pvp basics, had a good few laughs and maybe, maybe even gotten a kill.
I agree in principle, but wars are quite useless for that experience. Undock in something even faintly threatening, and the plated, station-humping command ship or BS will de-aggress and dock up. Assuming they're not playing in easy mode with neutral logistics, of course.
The thing about wardecs that doesn't work is, they're very effective against noob corps without much experience, and virtually useless against everyone else. "Hey, wardec coming in. Time to fill the shell corp / move out to lowsec / break out the NPC hauler alts."

Originally by: Malen Nenokal Edited by: Malen Nenokal on 19/02/2010 23:56:00 You're an industrial corp. Hire a mercenary corporation to counter wardec the attackers. You may not have PvP prowess, but as industrialists, you can fight with your ISK. 
Corp is less then 3 weeks old and you expect people to have tons of money to throw away. Also, as an mining corp if they cant mine they cant get money. So thats a great idea of paying merc corps.
Corps of noobs and mining corps are worthless anyway. People driving them to close render all members (but the often egomaniac CEO) a service, as it is likely their next corp will be something more integrated with at least a combat wing and older players to assist the younger ones.
EVE is a huge food chain, while would you position yourself in the plankton role?
If you just want to play with your RL friends guess what, a chat channel is enough, no need to make a corp. -- 081014 : emoragequit, char transfered to a friend, 090317 : back to original owner blog |

This is an example of people who need to be a little more mature. Instead of just instantly dismissing issues, look at it from the other persons side.
Dude, I *totally* suck at pvp... But if I were to get war-dec'd, I'de take the minerals I've saved from all my mission running, build a couple of Ruptures/Rifters from the BPC's I have, fit them with loot I've found, and go have fun for a few days....
IF it stopped being fun, I would leave my corp in the capable hands of my alts, and just continue on.... I mean, c'mon... There are ways to get around this... and yeah, I pretty much suck @ pvp... but its not impossible either....

Originally by: gwabakk Eve online is a great MMO game because it allows the players freedom of choice of what careers they want to explore. The game had a very fine balance indeed between the interests of, say, the casual miner and the hardcore combat pilots. Each and everyone was allowed its fair amount of time and space in the game to persue whatever they choose to do.
This has changed with the event or wardeccing.
Wardeccing, whatever the fair intentions where when introduced, has now become a means to score easy kills and/or easy money in high-sec at the cost of the peacefull and innocent. A combat corp can start a war at very little cost against a miner corp, which of course is not equipped to defend itself. Some people argue that miner/manufacturing corp should prepare to defend themselves but you cannot possibly expect that players that have devoted all their time and resources to mining/manufacturing to be a match to a bunch of players who have devoted all their time and resources to combat.
Furthermore, and at least as important, those miner did not come to eve to do combat, they chose a different path, because that is what they wanted, and that is what eve promised to be a valid paht when they started out. Now, with wardeccing, they are forced into a path they did not choose, and they do not whish to follow.
High-sec isn't called high-sec for nothing, but what wardeccing has effectively done is making piracy legal in high-sec. My corp, less than a month old, has already been wardecced three times, every time without a proper reason. Wardeccing has given combat corps that do not want/dare to engage their equals the perfect to tool to just attack the defenseless instead, getting easy kills perfectly legal, and all that in high-sec. That can hardly have been the intention of the designers of this game feature. Wardeccing is disabling the free choice of career paths in eve (freedom that the game was designed for), and forcing miners to quit player corps and join NPC corps instead (which eve was not designed for).
I do not propose to get rid of wardeccing, but restore the high-sec balance. When a wardec is mutual by both corps, no problem, go ahaed and fight it out. And low-sec being low-sec you should always expect being attacked. But when the wardec is not mutual, high-sec should still remain a save place, and any encounters should be concorded by the normal rules.
I know this will also disable to opportunity to start wars in high-sec even if there is a valid reason, but then again, it would also be ridicolous if you could just give the local police (Concord) some money and then can go beat them neighbours up without consequense whatsoever. High-sec is high-sec and should be properly guarded.
Bottom line: wardeccing, whatever its fair intentions were, has now become an abuse at the cost of those who justifiably have choosen a non-combat career in eve. And that abuse will have to stop. Engaging others in high-sec should always be concorded, even when the corps are at war (unless the wardec is mutual)
Regards.
