oh, and then whichever numbnuts didn't disclose that he was at war when he joined the fleet will be banned from the major incursion channels.


oh, and many people will just corp hop.



Hey, an MM guy. It's been a while since we (my buds and main) swapped pain in Venal. I will be splattered on the killboard (hopefully on the kill side).

But you hit the nail on the head. People will not be able to join fleet while Dec'ed. You will see lots of people leaving corps. This will be an intersting shake up.

Today, after close to 2 weeks of having a friends corp wardec'd by a 2 man corp that has never logged in except to renew the wardec, they received a reply back from their petition asking to have the war invalidated because it's clearly a greifing tactic. These said players fly incursions as were harassed by a set of players then wardec'd.




Funny thing is, I flew with that corp and I remember both the parties included in this. For a while I even had the 2 offending corp members added to my watch list.


I will not say anything more on this subject at this time.

I almost made a mistake. I'm glad I caught myself. I asked who to wardec in the incursion channel and started the process then noticed that they were flying Machariels. That would have defeated the purposed of coming onto the field. Now after spending a few hours thinking about it and seeing proposed targets, I'm going after logi's only. After all, a good set of ECM's against them will kill all the targets I'm looking for.

Armed with this I can now actually be more effective since I can target my blackbirds to very specific racial targets of the day. I'm thinking shields this weekend.

Now, I'm going to be upfront and tell you that I will not be targeting any of Cozmic Cowboys guys, only because the first incursion that I flew was with him. I think it was about 8 hours after the patch. Man that was a bloody day. This was long before the time of jackelwobs wardeccing for the purpose of greifing and long before the concept of farming the incursions came to be.

Anyway, that's a side note. One of my buddies asked why I'd waste 2m isk per corp for the Dec on this toon and I said why not. It will strip their ability to make ISK. Anyway, I'm looking for the free kills and will be recruiting this weekend for corp pop in's. I will post once the wars are started for those that was to assist in the carnage.

Anyway, back to planning.

I like how you think you can solo gank incursion runners... Let alone be successful in this.


that being said, I applaud your method of rage coping.

Success/failure is measures in how much you care. If I die 10 times in a blackbird and still succeed to take out a single Basi, I've won the ISK game ;).

Luckily for the corp, the new wardec mechanics allows people to jump into the corp on a whim and participate. So it might not be a solo after all, but I'll try the solo approach first.

Here is some bad news for those that want to see this work and some potentially good news for those incursion people. Apparently the tax rate is so redonkulous on the customs offices that my sibling characters will be participating in that for the next 48 hours. I guess that some of the guys though it would be easy to whack these things will a few people and much to their dismay that didn't happen at the speed they wanted.

So, after 24 hours of producing the new BC's I'll be support that OP tonight. Let's see how fast these things drop with 12,000 dps on them. Apparently the biggest drawback is the need for haulers for ammo.

So I guess I'm going to defer to next weekend.
