Warfare & Tactics

The mechanics are broke in so many ways, that whining about one (and wanting it fixed) are kind of pointless. The dec shield is no more an abuse then the 1-man corp decs and hop in/hop out WTs. Hell, we keep an alt corp 'active' so we can have an alt jump to it when we do not feel like fighting. You are free to dec it, as well, but you have to pay again. We haven't needed to, but we could always set up a third corp or just jump out to npc corps for a while. Avoiding war is easy (just as easy as declaring war) and the dec shield for now is just one of the routes.

You're horrible at analogies considering CONCORD supercedes corporations in hierarchy, and the water company supercedes the car wash, so according to your analogy you're saying CONCORD cut your war dec short, rather than the corporations actions. So yes you lived up to your words of providing a dumb analogy , but also proved that you dont posses the skills necessary to analyze my earlier analogy by your display of stupidity.

Also
you have paid for legalised hostilities for a specified duration.
I'll concede that it may be considered legal per the description ingame, fact of the matter is however, you're still blackmailing an entity to look the other direction or make an exception to the rules for a period of time.

No, that's not actually a fact and it certainly isn't what Blackmail is. I'd look it up before you accuse others of stupidity. I'd say you missed the point of my over-trivialised analogy also which I suppose I could attribute to your under-developed frontal lobes, if we are going to make personal snipes?

Furthermore, the whole basis of your argument rests on a declaration of war being a one sided affair that is not, in fact a legal service provided at a specific expense.

If you want to make it impossible for someone to leave a wardecced corp, then a deccer or deccee should also not be allowed to gain new members for the duration. No one in, no one out.

1) Because insulting someone is a surefire way to make someone more likely to read what you've posted.

2) If you really want people to read it, better formatting (paragraphs and such) would make it a lot easier.

3) I did read it, and don't agree with you; shocker, someone disagrees with your point. This is EVE, you really should be used to that by now.

Well, you're free to come find us. Have at it.

I guess the only thing to hope for is that your targets won't sully their 'names' by adding Dec Shield to their history, that way when/if it ever gets reversed and declared illegal we'll all know who used them and re-dec.


Not that many corps probably care about their name and only care to protect their ISK/assets...

Yuller, as much as I love you and the other chill bros at POD (except crow) you guys make some terrible posts.

As you've no doubt deduced by this point, no one realy cares.

Why ?

Because War Deck's have very little if anything to do with war. Grief Deck would in the great and grand majority of circumstances be the more accurate term to use. So excuse me if I can't be arsed to feel sorry for you wasting 300 mil ( more likely 10 ) to shoot some noobs hauler or barge.

Until CCP gets some inspired idea on how to balance or reduce the stupid amount of greifing associated with decks dont expect much to change.

In the meantime grow a pair and go to low sec. I can't ever remember seeing a 40 man blob of fw. Not that they would be hard to avoid with even semi decent scouting. Try flying something that isn't a win button ( cough Dram ) and maybe you'll get some quality action.

And remember. If the Deck mechanic is broken , it's probably because people exactly like you abused it . Sucks to be you carebear. Cya in low sec

i love the grow a pair and go to low sec comments.....fact of the matter is i probly got 2 times the kills you got m8 and i would say 80% of those are from former pirate days...the entire post is about how easy it is to avoid a war dec...quit trying to read into something that is not there...
