Your definition of "nerf" is rather biased. Carebears get nerfed too. Don't make up definitions when perfectly good ones already exist.

Are you :sadpanda: at the constant nerfing of EvE?
Are you frustrated with the lack of targets to pew?
Do carebears and their constant lobbying for bubble-wrapping of their mission & mining ships get up your nose?

'Nerfing' hisec or wars applies, as it refers to making it safer for carebears, an appropriate use of the term. How exactly do 'carebears get nerfed too' ? You aren't seriously suggesting a mis-use of the 'nerf' term applies to reduced carebear activity payouts like mining yields or incursion payouts do you, for safety is not affected...

Regardless of how many others mis-use the term to mean 'reduce', 'nerf' isnt appropriately applied that way; it means to make safer.

OP: "I WANT THINGS TO PEW! WAR DECS FOR CAREBEARS! HTFU!"

Carebear: "Why don't you wardec one of the many, MANY other PVP corps (Such as the offers in this very thread) and have all the pews you want?"

OP: "Are you CRAZY!? They'll shoot back!"

And then realise there isn't that much Pew to eb had because said corp just stay docked / disband.

If they disband you win. Its really the only way to truly "beat" someone in this game. Make them quit the game or make their corp die.

So let me get this straight: in order to convince CCP to stop nerfing hisec & making life easier for carebears, you want to deliberately induce as much whining and complaining from carebears as possible, which will have the inevitable outcome of CCP revisiting wardecs to reduce the capacity for dec-griefing?

I heard there is a place called low sec or 0.0 where you can shoot all the things. But they might shoot back and know what they are doing, scraee right!

Population density wise there are far more people in hisec, with more probability of getting a blingy pinata kill (without a blob). Why do you rob banks? Because thats where the money is...

"... Allow me to give an example from one of my own wardecs, which I will then set into contrast with non-highsec combat. Last year, I went to war against a highsec mining corporation called Tri Star Productions. There was only one battle in the war, and it lasted approximately four minutes. This was the result: Three dead Mackinaws, a dead Orca, and all four pilots podded GÇö each with expensive implants. The damage inflicted was more than 6 billion ISK, or 8 billion going by today's prices. All of it was done solo. One player, one character. What is the equivalent in nullsec PvP? In terms of ISK, this would be the like someone solo'ing several carriers simultaneously." [awesome article]

Additionally, existing carebear cries for nerfdom (and CCP's bending over to satisfy them) typically do not negatively impact nullsec play. (i.e. crimewatch, exhumer buff, increased wardec costs & unlimited allies, etc)

...
Right. So you don't PVP. I get it.

Oh no, them evil carebears at it again, playing the game in a way they find fun...how dare they! *teenrage*

Quite the contrary, and I actually would like the ability to wardec NPC corps; carebears should not be able to hide under the protection of NPC corps forever, while waging internet forum warfare for nerfing wardecs and CCP bubble-wrapping their exhumers...

Most of us made transition from carebear to pvp via desensitization. i.e. stuff happens->initial ouchie->ouchie wasnt so bad->I want to give others ouchies. My theory is that if fear of pvp is removed through desensitization, there will be fewer complaints

Not the point; point is they are changing the game from its foundational model of risk and HTFU , to a risk-free theme park by crying to CCP to constantly nerf hisec. In response, I am advocating DEC-AGEDDON as a way to desensitize them to their pvp fears, educate them and remove said whining GǪ

There is a difference between being interested in PvP but lacking the skills to compete, versus being interested in industry, and lacking PvP skills. You don't get someone interested in PvP by imposing PvP upon them. If they're not interested in PvP and you keep imposing PvP on them, you will simply drive them from the game.

Here is a list of possible outcomes when you wardec a carebear corp in hisec, pick the incorrect one:

1. They dock up
2. They stop logging in
3. They quit the game
4. They HTFU and learn to PvP by losing lots of ships at your caring hands

View the corpus of carebears as a collection from which to entice some PvP-curious pilots to join you in your antics. Rather than declaring war on them and blowing them up, invite them to join you in your escapades. Start off with minimal cost fleets such as T1 rifters, then as their confidence is built encourage them to ship up to destroyers and cruisers.

You catch more flies with honey than vinegar.

I am not trying to get carebears interested in pvp, I am just trying to get them to stop whining and subsequently causing nerfs through desensitization and experiential learning (i.e.untanked ship goes pop)

They need never fit a blaster and go pew, they just need to accept their decision not to tank their ships properly (or defend themselves actively) has implications, that is -- they can be pewed in hisec and thats normal eve life, not something to continuously beotch and moan and lobby against.

EvE didn't used to be about a honeyed hisec theme park, it used to be based on vinegar. And again, I am NOT trying to convince carebears to pew, I am just trying to shift the mindset to one of 'if I don't tank properly, or actively defend myself, I might die in hisec and thats NORMAL' -- not something to constantly beotch about and lobby against.

Who's with me? Have you decced a carebear corp today?
