I Am discusted by this post.

War decing is already far to east to avoid.

This should continue to be considred an exploit.


War decs should also follow you as your move corp or alliance untill the dec has completed.

Are you trying to kill an already nerfed to hell area of the game?

The issue is CCP has FAR too much on their plate right now to fix this right ATM. So they are temp allowing this for now. In the end the idea ought to be to remove the easy mode for 2 man corps to loldec larger corps and vise versa. The bigger difference in numbers ought to mean vastly increased war costs.

And to be frank. Hi sec wars currently suck. 99 percent of the time its just a few ganks here and there. Even if you are serious members can always just leave and go into an ALT corp. And I will never support denying that.

The whole damn system needs to be changed. Wars need to be about honor and prestige. ones who stay and fight ought to be rewarded and maybe even NPCs ought to be able to be fielded in small engagements.

That's a complete guess. They've not said they are changing it at all. They could leave it this way for the next five years. The carebears would cheer and dance, but denying risk to highsec is not the credo upon which EVE Online was built.

the risk is still there.

Red Frog Freight has lost more to suicide gank (on freighters!) then all the wars combined.

wardec are just annoying, it's just a way to grief 99.9% of the time.

anyway, with all the change coming this winter, you need to realise that the player base does NOT want to take part in pvp, and that CCP is changing the game to accomodate them. (and remember the forums are far from being representative of the player base)

Everything change and evolve. stop being the old sad rambler who's trying to ruin fun for eveyone else.

Why are they annoying? And how do you define griefing?

This was a hardened gaming experience. If CCP is trying to transform it into a something else, then it will go the way of the Chinese server.

If you disagree with this thread then you must read this ganking CCP thread:

and then participate in it. Plus, you'll get isk.

If you're refering to the insurace removal, I don't think it'll change anything about that, it's more of a "there's something hidden, let's shoot it out!"

griefing, in this particular case, is deccing small corps you know will just stop playing outside station.

not all change is good, but those small one CCP did are.

Like I said somewhere else, high-sec is not safer then it was, I never lost a ship due to war, but i've lost plenty to suicide gank.

and even if you don't get your insurance back from it, a 500m payout on an indy will still be profitable.

This is me totally agreeing with you....CCP I think you just made hell freeze over.

Btw i think the reason they are doing this is because the new BCs and destroyer changes will change the hisec ganking balance (ganking without wardec)

They really only play in highsec. Some small proportion of them will venture into lowsec. An even smaller proportion will do sites in wormholes or npc nullsec. No unista is allowed into sov nullsec.
