Hi, is evading a war now not classified as an exploit?
Let me explain.
Corp A declares war on CORP 1 CORP 1's members leave. Closing the Corp in the process. CORP 1's previous members now create CORP 2. Corp A declares war on CORP 2. CORP 2's Members leave. Closing the corp in the process.
IIRC This used to be classified as an exploit.
It was petitioned and apparently its allowed.

It's allowed and commonly considered 'admitting defeat'. Unless it's a one man corp or the like, then it's called 'choosing the sensitive way out'.

Confirmed it's a legitimate way to evade wars.

I think it's still an exploit if they all leave except for one minimally skilled alt as CEO (thus preserving the corp assets and identity) whilst all running away to safety for the duration of the war and all come back the minute it's over?

They all left on every declaration.
Created new one and did the same over again.

Apparently it isn't.
Keep in mind that things like corp offices, POS and other corp stuff are all disabled by this. For advanced corporations it's a serious blow, it's just newbie corps that can do this without any practical consequences.

It's intended. It literally kills the corp for the time being and, unless its a tiny corp, not everyone is going to come back (to a corp that can't defend itself).
It's not much different from your war dec targets never undocking, which isn't an exploit either.

Last I heard its only a exploit of the corp repeatedly joins and leaves alliances to drop decs. As far as your situation no since you are deccing the corp not the individual members.

How about (as Ive seen done) declaring war, then instead of reupping the war dec, splitting off to a new corp and wardeccing with that one. Isnt that more expensive? ------------------------------------ "You know, my foot oughta vandilize your ass" |

I've found that you can avoid most wars by going 1 jump in to lowsec. Though there is the flip side that you can avoid most war decs from people in lowsec by jumping in to highsec. It's like there is a great separating divide. Never quite understood it.

A wardec is simply against a corporation, you caused the corporation to disband, goal achieved, what is the issue?
Or from another pov: There are no consequences to starting a war, so also not to evading one.

The real question is now "why are you spending so much time and effort on these people that clearly have nothing of value?"
Put anotherway "Are you bullying subscribers out of the game? Because it sure sounds like it"

Edited by: Jada Maroo on 26/02/2011 23:12:09 Obviously they don't intend to fight so you're just wasting time and isk.
Why are you wardeccing them anyway? If your purpose is easy ganks, well, that doesn't seem to be happening. In high sec there's not a whole lot of point to wardeccing an unwilling adversary. If you want to pewpew rent some space in null.
If you want to stay in high one other option is to get with some friends and do a Red v Blue sort of arrangement.

really? your crying because the group you are trying to force an style of gameplay (pvp) is forcing their style on gameplay (pve) on you?
better wars come from people that want to fight back. join RvB tons of fun. or head to nul lots of chances there.
stop looking for easy ganks, its poor gameplay.

In EVE, you can not wardec single players, but only corps.
Thus, SINGLE players are individually allowed to switch corp at any time without any problem, because your wardec is on the corp.
If you kill the corp as an operating entity, you've achieved your goal, since your wardec was against the CORP, not against any individual. You are thus, by definition, happy with that result 
CCP devs have on several occasions over the last couple of years (CBA to find the posts) said that they were unhappy with the current wardec mechanics as they were essentially 'pay to grief' (their words, not mine). They decided on the reclassification of this as a partial fix, and to cut down on the number (and expenses) of petitions.
There are several options open to you: 1. Go to low-sec 2. Go to 0.0 3. Wardec larger, more established corp, who have some attachment to their corp identity.
...but I guess that what you really want is to grief people out of the game, which is EXACTLY why CCP made the change of practice (and, it seems, for good reason)

Yes indeed. Originally by: CSM Meeting Minutes 20-23 06 2008 0017 Empire War Dec Mechanics Noah (CCP) believes that the current wardec system amounts to a pay-to-grief system, and that CCP is interested in making war declarations deeper by adding mechanics such as victory conditions that would eventually end wars.

Yes, that statement is rather old but it is still true.

Tis funny, OP used game mechanics to target carebears for cheap kills and lolz, carebears in turn use game mechanics to frustrate and avoide would be pvpers. PvPer's whine to CCP and the forums about the unjustice of it all.
Result: carebears carry on playing the game, PvPers rage and end up being classed at griefers.....
Karma anyone??

Let me guess OP, your "1337 PvP corp of pirates and mercs" wanted to war dec a bunch of miners who arent interested in fighting? Sounds like YOU are the carebear, go fight someone willing to fight back.....but that wont happen will it? because then you wont be fighting hulks and retrievers

Edited by: Sadayiel on 27/02/2011 14:47:40 I'm curious since i'm not much involved in wardec mechanics..
What if they make war mutual then surrend.. shouldn't this drop the wardec too without need to disband corp or there is some monetary/time drawback doing that?
meh checked evelopedia, so my previous theory don't work

troll posts aside it is good to see that the majority of eve players still know what pvp is. To the OP, griefing is apart of eve, your trying to grief them and they are doing it back. God knows why you thought it would be a good idea to post it on here.

Only once, when living in high sec, I saw WTs in low sec. They were everywhere we went. Cudos to a pro corp. And I've been war deced many times. Nowadays it's mostly Orphanage and likeminded Jita campers tho.

Its not an exploit, the game mechanics are from 2004 and are fairly ill conceived.
