could someone please explain issues with war dec mechanism as im confused.

Someone shot at my alt in high sec.

I decided to form a corp and war dec them which I did approx. 36 hrs ago.

I log in this am to find a notification from 3pm yesterday advising they had surrendered at 3pm. What is more confusing is they was has finished already - less than 19 hours from the notification.

What is point of paying 50mil for a war dec if they can surrender before the war is active ?

you have to accept the surrender first, otherwise its buisness as usual Cool

Its not an exploit, if the game lets you do it...

I like this guy.

And also, if they repeat it, I'll give you the next donation and you can mail me in game, I can dec them as well. Sounds like a bit of fun.

This thread gives an insight to a part of the EvE mindset.

Step 1: *This OP has a question about an issue*

Step 2 : *Give advice/troll (albeit the 'troll' is absent here, nice!)*

Step 3: *Issue is genuine & involves avoidance of consequences*

Step 4: *EvE players pile up to assist OP in delivering justice upon the cowardly avoiders*

Profit!

Wardec rules are stupid. Unless you dec a corp with hisec POS or POCO they can just drop corp, close, and reform. Why more corps don't do this is a mystery to me. One I aim to solve through more wardecs.

If they keep dodging the decs, then perhaps hire Cannibal Kane. I'm sure he will show those ....people... a good time.

Actually it's just ... one ... people.

OP: I give you 2/10 for your scaremails: for mentioning how much ISK you have and that I should biomass myself. I dearly missed the mentioning of your countless scary friends in nullsec though. Someone whose alts date back to 2003 must have at least some, even if they're just nullbears, no? :sadface: Oh, and one bonus point for trying to gank me several times. As you didn't succeed I have to subtract 0,5. So, all in all it's 2.5/10.

As compensation for your ISK loss and because I'm feeling terribly bad about what happened and because you already have enough ISK anyway, I've just donated 50 mil to Cannibal Kane instead, in case he runs out of L'Oreal shampoo.

Cheers,

Sarah

What? I don't understand. Why did you drop corp if there was no threat?

If they are a carebear corp and not Code compliant, we will dec them for free.

See Bio for isk doubling rules. If you didn't read bio, chances are you funded those who did.

Math is hard, yea?

2 - 0.5 = 1.5

Appears so. Now you look stupid and should maybe learn to read ? He gave him +1 for trying to gank him several times.

2+1 - 0.5 = 2.5

I love it when a troll makes an ass of himself.
