I am a new player to eve, and my character is just over three months old and I am about to hit 5 mil sp. In the 13-14 weeks I have played, the corp I was in has been decc'ed 6-7 weeks. The corp that I was in had an average age of 3-4 months, and the average age of the corps that were decc'ing us was 2-5 years.
After talking to a few of the corps that wardec'ed us they said the reason was, that they were looking for a fight. I thought to myself why not join a militia, go to lo/nul sec. Then I realized what they were truly after, they wanted easy prey.
So I had to quit my corp today. The only option that CCP leaves new players to the game to allow them to gain the experience/skill points to actually be able to compete with the players that have a couple years on them. Some would argue that the taxes I'll pay will be astronomical, yet I can make 20+ mil soloing a lvl 4 mission, and pay 2-3 mil in taxes. I cannot do that hiding in a station.
This wardec option is a very interesting aspect to the game, and I like it. However it appears to me it is getting abused. I am not sure what can be done to fix this what appears to be broken mechanic, having cd's on wardecs, maybe if a corp has been decc'ed they can not be decc'ed again for a month?? Having corporation lvls, making it to expensive for a couple 5 year players bully 20 3-4 month players.
I like this game and would like to see it thrive, for new players as well as old. Some will reply to this forum by saying go play wow. Some will say that this is a whine. It does matter, pvp is now on my terms and not yours. And to the corp m8's I left ciao, sorry it had to come to this but it appears that CCP does not want new players to see the benefits of being in a corporation...

I will give you the easiest way to avoid war decs and that is to simply move to low sec.
High sec war dec corps for the most part are just chumps. They are only interested in tears and easy ganks. The problem is there are just far too many carebears that make themselves loot pinatas which in turn feeds the war ders lots of easy gankbear kills.
I started this game with the focus of being a pirate so I was interested in PVP right from the start and trained for it. Our lil corps of 3 noobs was barly in the game 2 months when we got our first war dec by a 40+ person corp. (granted we got it cause we can flipped their miners  )
Regardless, we had already been playing in low sec with Rifters & Thrashers so we decided to make them fight on our terms. We made them come hunt us in low sec where they couldn't play station games and it required them to actually hunt us rather than get lazy station humping PVP.
I've barely left low sec since then.. 
Simply put there is a lot of empty low sec that gets very little travel. Yes there will be pirates and you will probably lose a ship here or there but it's not as bad as many make it out to be.
Just go find your self off beat place in low and run anoms instead of missions. You can make just as good ISK or better and maybe even get the thirst for PVP while you are there. Best of all you wont have to deal with armies of neutral remote rep alts and station humpers or war decs.
Just don't be idiots moving your ships around and always use a scout. Yes you will be 20+ jumps from Jita but hey there is life out side trade/mission hub space.
