Why? I mean what do you think this would achieve - aside from locking people into a way they can't win, I mean. Do you expect this will suddenly make them change their behavior and come out to fight?

Or, more likely, will they simply log into their alts, in an alt corporation, and continue to ignore the wardec?

The risk averse are not going to suddenly man-up and start undocking to fight. If they wanted to fight, they'd be fighting without any extra "incentives". All your proposal will seemingly do is make alt characters in alt corps standard issue for any corporation that wants to avoid wardecs.


Also, they aren't abusing the mechanics - they're using them in the way CCP has stated time and time again they are allowed to use them. So if you want to blame someone, blame the guys with the rule book.

*yawn*

Kick everyone. Reform. LOL @ dec'ers

Can't kick/Killright still generated?
Sweet! Recruit players... wardec corp with alt... kick everyone....enjoy 30d of free pew pew.
Except then, people would be even LESS inclined to join corps which is counterproductive to CCP goals.

Next.

Joining a corp and creating a corp should be a serious decision.

Not something to do for lols.

Grief corps would encourage people to research before joining. In fact, this is a fine idea ... the New Order should start a special mining division, and recruit in the forums and Eve University's job faire. Thanx!

There should be a Corp Mechanism that ultimately encourages you to operate under the dangers presented by the wardec rather than simply remove yourself from danger.

This idea simply makes removing yourself from danger more difficult...

Also, who exactly gets the killright? The CEO? What if they leave an Alliance? The CEO of the Executor Corp? Certainly not everyone in the corp/alliance, as that would be ridiculous!!

The problem with all the ideas like this is the "carrot and stick" problem. You have to carefully balance the carrot (positive incentives) with the stick (negative incentives). Too much carrot results in no one doing anything else. But too much stick is just as bad, as the players will simply go do something else.

Your idea is, to be frank, all stick. All you would do is convince the risk averse players that player corporations are too much trouble and they'd just stay in their NPC corps where they don't have to deal with it, then you'd be back here in a month asking for a nerf for NPC corps, which will in turn just hurt the new players and drive them out of the game.

Let's toss the roleplay BS aside for a minute - what the "New Order" is really after is the ability to freely kill non-combatants. And that's fine, go shoot them. But don't act like you're in it for the good of the game when you suggest ideas that make it harder for them to avoid you. It's biased self-interest, nothing more.
