Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Yeah... No...
3b minimum for a week of wardecs where you can on average look at people dropping corps instantly and maybe getting a few kills which result in less than 300m total net worth for you from drops is a total nonsense.

The mechanics allow anyone to freely get away from any kind of wardec instantly with very little downsides.
As for you t3 arguments, you want to mine in a player corporation in highsec you have to deal with the second biggest but avoidable threat, the first being suicide ganking.

Locator agents offer the only way to wardec guys to not be a 24/7 uedama niarja jita amarr domixie campers.
Locator agents are fine, maybe highsec is broken. In highsec you are too easy to follow, considered escaping to wormholes?

You want to play eve by your own rules in the dumbest way possible and then complain about how it's unenjoyable because of people that want to push you towards the very core mechanics of game.

Eve is a PVP game. Deal with it.
Harden the f up, or get blown to bits.
The sooner you stop being a PVP avoiding whinebear the more fun you can look forward to having in this game.

--Edit--
Checked your corporations zkill and found out that the first 3 pages of it are full red apart from structure whoring, a non solo rookie ship kill and 8 man gank on a t1 frigate in lowsec.

No wonder every single guy wardecced you since you are such a good target.
Maybe not join such a bad corporation next time.

Get out of highsec or join an NPC corp and find some community chat channels to substitute for the corp experience.

Highsec industrial corps are suicide as you're currently discovering.

It looks like you have only lost one ship in three months of playing. You're doing better than most.

I would also be very suspicious to be in a HS industry/mining corp that has in its profile that it is CODE compliant.

My gut instinct when I see that screams that the leaders of your corp are alts of players in wardeccing corps who just want easy targets. I'm a paranoid twitchy person though, so I could be wrong.

null is by far the safest place to mine and do industry ATM. I was in a null corp when my first character only had 3 million SP doing ice/rock mining.

The advantage? You have chat channels open with hundreds of people in your same alliance screaming if anyone not friendly comes anywhere close to you. You can simply dock up/cloak up/reship to PvP/whatever before the bad guy gets in your system.

LS can be safe simply because there are a lot of areas with literally no one in them. If you are the only person in the system, you are obviously safe. If someone else shows up in local, just run. Make a second character/account to scout the route ahead of time before jumping through a gate.

Use the mechanics available before asking for the game to change.

Pretty much this. Wardeccers are the basically the most cowardly players in the game. You win over them by not giving them wardec targets - they won't ever venture into low or null where they could unintentionally lose a ship.

It's nothing personal, but newplayer corps with new players are the CEO are almost invariably the blind leading the blind, even if they are very well intentioned.

One thing to add, the way you win wardecs as the PvE-er is to have everyone in your corp AFK cloak in HS systems when asleep/at work/etc. Nothing is worse than locator agent-ing, flying 15 jumps and then not being able to find the guy for hours.

ok once more and then you get fed to the lions

be pro active in defending yourselves or simply stop being targets, simples

The worst advice I was ever given about wardecs was to avoid conflict and evade as much as possible.

OP, grab some corp mates who are willing to die, get in some T1 cruisers fit them as best as you can, make sure to have webs and scrambler/disruptors fit as you can.
Get out there and lose, or win either way when the war is over you will be in a better position for the ability to continue playing long term vs those who stay docked up and flee.

My EVE-sense is tingling. I have a sneaky feeling if OP doesn't come around he/she will have a few more wardecs in the morning because of this thread...

I could go for the locator agent spawning some Agent Scouts around the target of the search, which could be caught and killed to prevent the locator from having the info.

EVE could be a great game. It has a really terrible player base. Like many new players you showed up expecting a game where you could enjoy the game (PVE) rather than play battlefield in spaceships. Nope. Support for PvE professions died in any meaningful way long ago, and it has devolved into a bait and switch to give easy live targets to a community of sadists. Many of them play with the specific intent of logging on to ruin your day. For that type of player the game lost all interest long ago, and causing you to quit became their highest goal.

Sadly, much of the current development team has been hired from their ranks. While it seems great that the company hires significant portions of its development staff from the player base, when you consider that much of the player base seem to be the kind of people that would eat an infants liver to hear it scream suggests it might not have been a great idea.

If you enjoy PvE, the part of the game that attracted you does not get any deeper. You are pretty much paying for the privilege of providing entertainment to the people killing you for jollys.

What they should do with wardecs is change the benefit of being at war.

Rather than turn high sec into null sec for the affected Corp, it should cause other issues with the intent of encouraging the combatants to leave high sec. For instance, create a locator service that is free but only works if the targets are in high sec. It should create docking fees or even limit docking to government controlled stations rather than those owned by private corps. It could raise fees on market transactions, or disallow in-station transactions and thus require traveling to buy and sell goods- all of which would only be a problem in high sec. It could even allow certain offensive modules to be used without concord intervention, such as ECM and sensor dampeners which could be used to harass eachother, but not allow direct combat without concord involvement. It should not involve modules that could lead immediately to third party deaths, like webs and tackle, or neuts, so that the combatants die helplessly to mission rats, but disruptive actions that would encourage either the acceptance of duels or moving out of high sec where such harrowing can be dealt with directly.
