We're a rookie corp in frigates and everyone got excited for BIG FITE. Now there's just one or two of 'em sitting in BCs outside a station. So we can't really mine, and we can't really fight. How boring. |

Swamp them with frigates, BCs usually have a hard time hitting frigs. You might not kill them, but you'll have a giggle trying.

Welcome to highsec "wars". Yes, this is how it is, and this is why I fled to nullsec as soon as I could find a way to do so.

How is that boring? They're the ones waiting for you to bring the fight. |

Well, we go out and roam in frigates, but there's not a lot of fights that our 3 or 4 t1 frigates can engage in. So, we wait for them to get in ships that we can fight. But why would they do that? So everyone just sits where they are. |

Yeah 3 or 4 newbie frigs probably won't stand up to two BCs.
Wait until there is only one of them, then undock and swarm him.
Make sure you guys use tracking disruption and kill his drones. |

Nah dude you missed the point. I'm saying you guys ****** up in targets. We were really excited for a fight. Then the timer rolls around, 24 hours are up, 5 of us are waiting in a gang and..... nothing. I log in today, we get a small group going, we're out in frigates and you guys have 4 BCs. We can't fight that. So, okay, you're bigger than us. What do you do with all that strength? You can't extort us, we're rookies. You have overwhelming force and nothing to do with it. All it does is make the game boring on both sides. |

If you want some excitement, sell your mining barge and take up a career in making people upset. Especially people who have the weight to back their words.

Why Aren't you asking for war allies? Allies could cause pressure for your enemies.
Why haven't you placed bounty on your enemies? Bounty could cause pressure for your enemies.

How many corps is this wardeccing corp at war with? Or is it just you guys? If theres others, message them and ask them to come to your system amd combine your efforts, your corp alone has 30something members. Combine all online players from your corp with the other wardec'd corps and go play wack a mole...

1. there are lots of things you can do ... get a neutral alt(s) in a Stabber(s) to bump them off station (assuming it's a kick out station).
2. If they are fighting on a non-kickout station, move your base to a kickout station and let them come to you, go to 1. |

Yea, war decs need some work. This coming from someone who ran a small war deccing corp for months. I'm not saying I have the answer, but something needs to change.

That alliance is involved in a lot of wars, so why not contact one of the other corps they are fighting against and see about flying along side them.

Basically the way EVE works for the most part is.. either you're certain you'll win or you don't fight at all.
This is of course due to the fact that losses hurt quite much in this game compared to other PvP'ish games, but also that we have public killboards on the internet that displays your wins as well as losses, and that's what defines your level of cool and value as a human being.
Jokes aside, it means that it often comes down to one side being the stronger one and on the offensive and the other one hiding and consequently running to avoid stupid losses. A fair and somewhat consensual fight is a very rare thing, but it does happen occasionally.. but mostly in cheap faction warfare :p |

That is how noobs think. There are plenty of corps that enjoy fighting against the odds and alot of the time they don't end up winning. |

If you by noobs mean the vast majority of the population, then yes.. but sure there are some people that don't mind a challenge, thankfully. |

As in anything, its only the top 5% that are truly good at what they do. |

If they were actually good at PvP they would be willing to meet you on a more level playing field - flying frigates and other small ships - and win by a show of skill. Guess that shows how good they really are.
You guys have the right attitude, quite frankly. You're willing to fight, you're just not willing to commit suicide. For Eve rookies that's commendable. I wish you all the best of luck.

I remember the D3vils Children from when I lived in the verge vendor. I was very new then and bought skill books from the low sec system queletta. They hung out there allot. Hard too get those books but they were a fun group too talk too.
Back on topic though, just swarm with frigs, have a few laughs, get too know these guys. Just because they are a pirate group (at least they were when i interacted with them about a year ago) and just because they war decked you doesn't mean they are not cool dudes

Your corp description says you are 32 players, yet you say you can only muster about 4-5 players in t1 frigates willing to fight.
Sadly, this is rather typical for highsec corps.
I won't tell you how to lead your corp, but consider this an opportunity to find out who of your corp is truly motivated and willing to fight for it and who is just useless ballast.
Just think of how bad an average post by me is, and then realize half of them are even worse |
