There are low sec versions of all of these things that take place where people are rewarded for their risk in doing them. Why not worry about them if adding risk to lucrative activities is what you are looking for? Or why not just make the argument we should move all of these activities to low sec since you have decided they are too lucrative for high sec?
Different risk, not more risk. I suggest PvP risk in L4's, incursions, etc. instead of war decs, not in addition to them. High sec then becomes much safer for new or very casual players, and riskier for all those ISK grinding alts in NPC corporations.

OP, why don't you stop being a friggen panty sniffer and come out to lowsec to pvp with us? This place is dreadfully empty of targets. You don't have to worry about wardecs or none of that crap. At this point I'll attack anything that jumps in here, and I'll be kind enough to even let non-indy's get off the gates. The great thing is you don't even have to get me to aggro first or worry about losing your precious sec status since I'm blinky red.
I know it seems like it's fun to do nothing but blow up furry carebears, but if you really want to learn to pvp come and fight those of us who will actually give you a goodfight. OP, convo me in game. I'll be happy to pewpew with you! |

Stupid puns aside, ccp knows war decs have issues. There are additional exploits, such as people dropping corp, lying in system, then joining corp to spring a trap. Basically, this is an exploit that us often used by the agressor in the war dec. Since there are issues in both sides, ccp seems content to run neither as an exploit, reducing the petition load on the gms. This will remain as such until they can devote time and resources to properly fix the issue.
So you are stuck, deal with it. And if you don't like it... Go find another mmo that allows declaring war on people.
As an alternative, try faction warfare. Still a bit glitches, but it might work. I thought they declared that is an exploit, didn't they??? They pull a knife, you pull a gun.

The vast majority of these decs are for grief and the vast majority of the corps who issue them do so in the belief that they're going after carebears. They don't expect any opposition, they expect easy ganks and a nice payoff to lift the dec. That kind of mentality deserves 'war-dec shields'.
They want a risk-free ( for them) grief environment where they are guaranteed to be at the top of the food chain.
And the OP's conception of low-sec is so far removed from the truth I suggest he's gotten as far as 0.5 or been hugely unfotrunate in his choice of gateway system.

Quote:What we do is obviously an exploit
I once suggested that things like the Ice Interdiction and Hulkageddon and constantly renewing WarDecs to prevent others from playing are "griefing". The response was "CCP makes the rules, and they don't consider it griefering, therefore it's not."
I now see that response was correct.
You may think it's an exploit, but since this is CCP's game, they define the terms, not you.
Quote:While the tears of griefers are amusing, we don't want to drive people out of the game.
You'll just drive "average" players out of the game.
Quote:We agree with you on all accounts though. The Inferno expansion coming up is solely designed to completely revamp faction warfare and wardec mechanics. We have it from the word of the chariman of the CSM, The Mittani that CCP are working on changing wardec rules to prevent what Dec Shield does.
Credibility lost at the word "Mittani". |

Based on your responses from your alliance and yourself on this thread grief play is where your fun is to be had. But I'll let you excuse yourself with this one here.
You seem to make sense of thinking you have the right to be happy by making others miserable and your right supersedes anyone else's. To you the meaning of sandbox is your sand and your box. You cry because the options that are available isn't sand that benefits your demented pleasures of grief play.
With you guys (OP and majority of supporters) someone always has to be doing the crying. If it isn't your targets then it's you.

You missed the most important part of my post: EVE has made it where it is by being the opposite of the way you seem to want it to be.
And yet here you are wanting to limit the ways a deccee has for dealing with a dec.
High sec warbears want easy ganks and risk free isk from ransoms and payoffs. They talk about gudfites and small gangs, but as soon as a deccee presents a credible threat, perhaps by hiring mercs at great expense, they run away, play stupid station games, and use neutral RRs. This thread is spawned by people who set out daily to derive enjoyment by ruining other players' game experience, but have the tables turned on them constantly, so like all victims of EVE mechanics, they come to the forums to complain. |

Just admit it OP. You don't want good fights, you just want to gank. If you wanted good fights, there's two whole regions of space you can utilize to your heart's content to get those 'skill filled' battles you and similar posters of threads like these look for.
The truth, like others have pointed out, is that you want Eve to be a sandbox that operates by your rules, and any rules that do not coincide with your narrow vision must either be A) exploits or B) More effort by CCP to satisfy 'carebears.'
Here is the truth about the sandbox:
Eve is a harsh world, but it is also a harsh world comprised of PvE, PvP, and many other forms of playstyle. In a true sandbox, all are valid forms of enjoyment, and all carry their own versions of risk and reward.
CCP went as far to consturct different areas of space that cater to these types of playstyles, and were easy enough to navigate that one could jump between them freely should he choose. The true sandbox is that all styles are as valid as the other, and all can benefit from the use of the rules in the system to protect and support their playstyles and assets. Some will do so through industry, some will do so through pvp, and some, yes OP, will do so through the aspect of game play that insults you so.
This isn't YOUR sandbox, this is OUR sandbox, and frankly, I find it amusing that 'carebears' have outwitted the foxes with this mechanic so much that now the foxes are whining. Where once they thought they could accumulate carebear tears, the only ones they're harvesting are their own.
Are the mechanics in need of adjusting? Yes, I believe so, but I also find humor in the fact that you fly by not fighting fair, and now you're angry because your targets figured out they don't have to fight fair either.
As I'm sure you've said many times before to some carebear you blasted into obnlivion when the tears fell like rain, let me now reiterate to you...

War dec avoidance is lame, agreed.
However, lowsec has been very entertaining every since I joined Faction Warfare. I've been getting a good amount of solo and small gang action there, sometimes with total strangers. I'm really enjoying it. Plus, nothing says you can't take other "targets of opportunity" if they're available. : >
If you're having trouble getting that kind of action in other places, it's at least worth giving FW a try for a few weeks. CCP Sreegs is my favorite developer. |

Sorry to say so, but 999 out of 1000 of those wannabe-pirates in low and hisec have a brain smaller than the fist of a dwarf-mouse. Hell, even a fart of a mouse has a higher IQ.
I consider those "pirates" in highsec as exploiters. Ban them. No hisec pirates, no problem on war decs. Its that easy. Nobody would miss them. And lowsec isnt dangerous as long as u dont make mistakes. If i loose a ship, i do. If to a pirate or to an NPC, is not important, besides that the pirate who got me, must have been good. The last 30 trials to engage me ended in my classic message over local.

I must agree on the part where CCP needs to go in and see about "dec-shield" but then again, how many of these so called "griefers" aint there in highsec? You can't even fart for one day and you have 30 corps all over you which says: DIE CAREBEAR! So no wonder the bears have found this way and considering there are more mechanics in favor of the agressor its only fair the miners can do one thing against them.
I pity the folks who goes highsec with a mentality of ganking bears then brag about their kb when in fact it equals to no pvp at all to shoot a defenless miner nor a mission runner who might already be busy with a mission. Not to mention the ***** tactics of using neut RR, leaving corp and re-joining when player least expect it etc etc?
But when the bears halt your gankings you go whine? I dont post much on these forums but i've read much and i tell you, highsec griefers not mercs or real pirates but griefers, that they are the ones i've seen most whining from on these forums.
Another thing i've often fought about regarding gankers, griefers. Where do they get there isk in general? Carebearing on an alt i take it?

We lives in empire and we do alot of war decs there. But even then, we see some very few times that corps'es are leaving the alliances we war dec or corps'es are leaving the corp for another corp we have war dec'ed. So it's not really an issue for us.
Because those we war dec are corps'es / alliances we know who will fight back. We don't go after mining corps'es as long it's not from a contractor that want's us to kill miners.
But then, we are not the grifers then in that case. |

What most ppl here forget is that ppl who avoid wardecs by alliance hopping, would do so by disbanding corp and making a new one...
they dont care about corp history or alliance history, in fact they arent even actual players, they are someones alt. so please get over it, theres no possible way to make war against someone who doesnt want to.
now, that said. there are bugs that should be fixed. for example, ppl joining an alliance should take their wars with them when they leave.
but fixes like this will NEVER allow you or anyone else to declare a war on another corp and have it stick. they will disband corp and thats it.
the only fix ccp could introduce is to "lock" a corp when a war is declared so ppl on that corp have to fight it.... but quite frankly that is ******** and a horrible game design, ppl that dont want to bothered have and will allways be protected by ccp, because they should. inferno wont change that. |

Alternately, the Wardec could stick to everyone in the corp at the time the dec is purchased for a week. That way you have to fight for the initial dec, but if you're in another corp when it's up for renewal your status expires. |

You seem to misunderstand the reason to wardec. Hint: it's not about getting fights (and never was). People who want fights live in low-, wh-, null. You wardec for isk. Mercenary (disrupt logistic, denial of services, destroy POS), or to make isk in other fashion (fight targets who struggle to fight back, for example).
The difference now from early days is that industrialists back then, hired PvPers, had PvP wings, and/or actually fought back themselves. The game today is just filled with people who refuse to fight.. in a sandbox game where your actions are supposed to have consequences. Right, haha. I wonder what made them chose this game in the first place, it shouldn't be for them.. not to mention in most cases, these industrialists usually have isk and number advantage over the attackers, if they used it to their advantage they wouldn't have an issue with wars.
Sadly, the player-evolution, the consequences, and the roughneck industrialists are gone. It seems today everyone is a wall street shark who want non-effort isk, compared to the gold diggers of old. shiptoastin' liek a baws |

I see whiney thread from ragers about people avoiding a wardec is continuing strong.
To bad it was pointless, since you can still shoot anyone so long as they are not docked up and not logged in.
What was it called?
Ganking. Oh right...but no one wants to do that, since they are so risk adverse and don't want to have concord blow up their ship nor be locked out of the convience of highsec.
As for someone else forcing a fight on some, you cannot force them to fight back. They have to have the option to leave a corp at anytime if they have no interest, this is a sandbox and you cannot have your way without someone having theirs...which is why ganking is still possible. CCP is only going to change so guys can't leave corp when he is station camped then join as soon as he is several jumps away, guys jumping on war targets that didn't know the guy was about to be invited..stuff like that. If someone doesn't want to fight, they have to have the option to leave and a cooling off period before the dec expires while its still active and they can go on their way (otherwise, you will just drive people away from the game, cause isk is a joke and 25 mill is still chump change to permalock someone else in just so you can giggle at their unenjoyment of the game). If CCP does infact enforce it so you can't leave...you will see the numbers drop and I can't fathom why anyone would pay to play a game where you can't do anything much when someone else is ruining their enjoyment. |
