It's like the anti-Privateers! I love it.
I wonder how long it'll take before whinefests of epic proportions get CCP to nerf it.

It's a pretty obvious exploit imo. It's use of an unintended game mechanic to avoid a wardec, much the same way that everyone bailing out of a corporation when it's decced and leaving only one person in the corp to hold it open, then returning after the war is over.
Any target of ours that tries this crap will be reported.

According to Concord...
"If you are at war with a corporation that joins an alliance then the war will change from being against the corporation to being against the alliance.
If you are at war with an alliance and a corporation leaves that alliance then you will still be at war with the alliance but also temporarily at war with the corporation that left. The war against the corporation that leaves an alliance lasts 24 hours during this period you can attack them until the war expires."
Not to burst your bubble or anything, but we pre-petitioned this and were told by a bug hunter that this is an intended feature. I know, that was our reaction too. We decided instead of getting irritated by this easter egg, we'd simply use it for our perverse pleasures, and the benefit of all.
Enjoy!

It is a pretty interesting idea, but your entire alliance has a grand total of 2 members.
And you would have to assume that the corporations that end up with the alliance dec against you wouldnt be happy to have a free week (or so) of an alliance war should you become bigger.
I know we treat the free time we get when a corporation we dec joins an alliance as a xmas present, and I would imagine that would be the same for a far bit of others that enjoy having a target rich enviroment over anything else.
Edit: grammar fixes.

I have a feeling that the only people whining to this topic are those bastards who only wardec mining and production corps who have no way to defend themselves. Total win and I hope that CCP lets this go on for a long time. Let those whiners taste what it's like to actualy have to work for their kills!

Oh now the mercs are going to start crying...
"Pod them! Pod them all!!!" they shout
Never mind that this will be an absolute cluster-f of epic proportions if it takes off. Burning wrecks, and massive blob-tastic ugliness all over empire. People blowing up all over the place, just for the hell of it. Well who knows what will go down to keep this from happening. Perhaps a nerf. Perhaps there just aren't enough people who want the chaos, but maybe I'll get lucky enough to see it.

I agree, this is a game mechanic that already existed, wars transferring to joined alliances, and wars dropping off of corps leaving. The only operative differance is that now there is an umbrella group of people who basically are brokering in other peoples' wars. "Got war? Call us!". It's like buying mercs to fight for you/join you, except that in this case, the mercs are taking on the burden of war. And you're paying them, with said war. The war is both an asset and a liability. It's like say, trading in a commodity.
Brilliant idea. Excellent use of the game mechanics. Great plan. I approve a ton. In fact, I'm thinking of spinning off an alt corp to put my combat alt into, so I can shack up with you guys for some free empire pewpew.

There is already a perfectly legitimate and valid way to avoid wars and any pvp aspect of eve - Join an npc corp. That is what they are for - for people who for whatever reason don't wish to play the full game and want to mission/mine/npc or whatever in peace.
Eve as a game is about PVP not just the shooty shooty flashing light and exploding ship kind that generally is the first thing that springs to mind when pvp is mentioned. Market PVP industrialists cutting a few isk of their profit magin to bring down their competitors, market manipulation its all PVP.
Every action in EVE has a consequence which is why I love it. You irritate somone you stand bringing down their wrath upon yourself and your corp. People who want to avoid that could think about their actions. Or take the easy way out with this neat sidestep of game mechanics being offered in this thread.
To be totally honest I am suprised a service like this hasnt been offered sooner. With the influx of players from other mmorpgs that offer far less risk and reward like Wow and others where dieing affects you far less harshly than it can in EVE, the players use to the cosy consequence free environment need somewhere happy and cuddly to play. Personally I thought this place was within empire in an npc corp. With the advent of Imune empire it seems that 'player' corps can have the same protection offered. Perhaps CCP should change the game description again "WoW with spaceships! come give us your monies" that'd be about right I think sit back and watch the subscriptions roll in....

There's all kinds of calculated moves in Eve to gain an edge. We're the kind that doesn't need a calculator.
"Ooh, all of a sudden the corp that's been unable to dock for days has turned the tables on their opponent. Brilliant move by the underdog, the crowd roars! \o/"
We offer the best of both worlds. Escape or Embrace, it's all right here and it's free.

Couple of points though:-
1) Your gonna get wardecced
2) If corp A has been wardecced by corp or alliance B and join iMune, corp A is still vulnerable to attack until the seven day period of the concord war "bribe" is up.
3) Your gonna get wardecced
