So let me get this straight, if I join a corp, another corp can just "declare war" (Privateers) on my corp, and attack my members, and I would NOT receive Concord protection? WHY?!
Thats not good. Its why I'm not in a corp right now. I have a really great idea for a Caldari corporation with a "profit sharing" concept that would make it very successful!
Corp wars should only be declared if BOTH sides declare war on each other. It should be CONSENTED.
Better yet, Concorde should protect the corp that does not want to go to war.
Agree or disagree?

No.
What you're suggesting is akin to asking EVE to turn into WoW.

I don't care for WoW either, but as a Caldari citizen with high Caldari faction, I should be able to be provided with Concord protection AT LEAST in 0.5 space and above.
What stops this from doing what the so called "Privateers" from cycling corps in and out of their alliance, so they can gank other, smaller, corporations at will?
This is a really bad mechanism, and it has to change.

Solution: If you are a small corp don't have members that tick people off enough to drop 50m on the dec.

Eves been this way for over three years. Are you actually saying it should change because 'you' don't like it?

War decs or empire wars should have been consensual PVP. Low secs for non-consensual and null secs for free for all. High secs wars are lame and bad for new players experience. --------- Technica impendi Caldari generis. Pax Caldaria!

What you're describing would make highsec even more of a newbie-sandbox than it already is.
But it probably would lead to more people leaving their npc corps and forming corps of their own instead.
Not a good idea tho imo. Highsec wars serve a useful function, which is to weed out the people that can't adapt the right mindset from the game, and keep those scared of taking risks from ever accomplishing much. -----

So true...

Exactly! The current situation really discourages people from joining newbie helping organizations such as Eve University, that assist new players with learning the game.

Because a state of war exists between the Privateers and your corporation. War is hell.

Not if you don't learn how to defend yourself. EVE is a PvP game by design. Might makes right and all that.

God, no. That would be an absolutely wonderful thing for Real Life(tm), I must say, but not for EVE. 
Originally by: Strel Samodelkin

Concord can't protect their secret stash of donuts, let alone players. What do you want? They're a corrupt, beauracracy filled with nepotism and all that good stuff. 
Again, in EVE, might makes right. You won't get very far with any grand plans unless you can defend yourself. And the Privateers are probably the best way of doing that. They're declared against half of the bloody game; even if you don't have the manpower to stand against them, you shouldn't be able to swing a dead Minmatar about without hitting potential allies.
And if you're worried about the cost of fighting a war, fly cheaply. Frigate actions are some of the most fun you can have in the game, and one of the best ships to fly in order to learn the mechanics of PvP.

Hey man, don't diss CP. They put the "P" in Provisions. You might go far with them and someday be the CEO even.

You're wrong there. If a war broke out among factions within a sovereign nation, there would be peace keepers/national guard deployed to prevent the conflict from escalating. This is in the best interest of the power to prevent distabilization and ensure economic security!

I know how to defend myself, but sometimes when I want to do a TRADE RUN in my Badger II, I DO NOT want to deal with pirates in 1.0 space! This is why I pay my Caldari corporate taxes!

God, no. That would be an absolutely wonderful thing for Real Life(tm), I must say, but not for EVE. 
Eve Online is NOT real life, nor should it be modeled after such. Eve Online is for fun/entertainment. If I can't form a corproation in game due to mechanics, thats NOT fun! Especially after I build a website and business plan of operations for the in game corporation. I'm not forming or joining SQUAT until this changes!

Don't get me wrong, I like PvP. I PvPed in other MMORPSs, a lot. I just want to PvP when I WANT TO PvP. When I want to conduct business, I want to conduct business

Being in CP is a traumatic experience.
I mean, the newb corps are fine, lots of nice people in them...but the normal npc corps that you get thrown into are just full of social rejects that spam the corp channel with inane apeshit -----

Yes. Someone I know formed a corporation a month ago. They already got war declared on them, and have lost several transports. In secured space.
Current system DOES NOT work.
