I read a lot of that and can't really find answers to some of my concerns, which I would like your opinion on.

A)You seem to be pushing for increasing wardec costs per week, but this really won't help - at all. As soon as, say, PIRAT is at the end of their cost/effectiveness cycle on a corp or alliance, another one of the big wardec alliances, say Vendetta Mercenary Group, will just pick that corp or alliance up.

B)There's still no way to effectively end the wardec. You seem to get that the main problem with HS ganking is there's no real way for the good guys to counter a gank in progress, or not many, and every situation where there is not interaction and game play, or the potential for those, between sides, makes for a very dull game. Many large wardec alliances have hundreds of wardecs, with lots on very pvp oriented groups, but they really know better than to try to get a fight out of wardeccers, so they don't bring a fight to Hi Sec, because they won't get one. Basically, Wardeccers have no skin in the game - just like gankers, they can just do the deed and dock up, or ratters can just warp to a safe when a hunter or gang is 5 jumps out. I wouldn't mind Wardeccers if you could actually fight back, but the sheer number of large pvp alliances that are wardecced show otherwise.

As it is, wardecs aren't a tool for generating content, they are just a way to get free kills off people who are ignorant of mechanics. I have seen nothing in your proposals to actually make wardecs an actually opposed thing where the defender could win the war and be done with it, which quite frankly is needed.

Vote Vic Jefferson for CSM X.....XI.....XII?

A. No I'm not for increasing the war dec costs. I'm saying the cost should be calculated on the average age on all active characters. Younger average age makes it more expensive, older cheaper. Protect newbies, slaughter Vets.

B. Anti Gankers need more tools to counter. We need to buff the watch lists, so war dec alliances can focus more on specific targets and need less wars. No watch lists and they need twice as much wars.

It means "less" might be more accurate.

It does, as a young char with a lot of SP is still a young char aka newbie (or alt of course). And yes, theoretically a corp could delete all characters, create a new one, inject x SP and play. But I dont think many will do, as your char says something about you and we are proud of our history. Only ones I could see do this right now are multiboxing miners or gankers. In most cases they do it for profit and extracting/injecting skills is not cheap.

Great!
Then you will love talking with me as my threads are used as references for solutions.
... and I am sure you remember this and this.

... and strangely enough, a lot of what I suggest has been implemented in one form or another. Now, I don't think that is because of me. I think most of human invention is derivative of ideas that proceeded them.
It is just simply quite nice to see that I think in the right directions. Blink

The Marmite Collective Declares War Against Curatores Veritatis Alliance
From: CONCORD
Sent: 2016.03.02 18:08

The Marmite Collective has declared war on Curatores Veritatis Alliance.
Within 24 hours fighting can legally occur between those involved. If war is due to a corporation at war joining an alliance, then the war starts immediately instead.


This is hilarious. Same as last year.
If Tora finds he can not talk and debate then he resorts to declaring war. Much like how a bully or thug would try and punch you because they ran out of words.



So what do you guys think?
When Tora can not debate things with other CSM members do you think he will try use some useless little wars to try and change their minds? Big smile

Always good for a laugh. Thank you. LolLolLol

It's like when you have a nice conversation going with people on numerous subjects and then suddenly some bully joins in, starts talking on how important he is, linking to all kind of irrelevant posts and thinking he is the center of the universe. Then you have to punch him in the virtual face and put em back in his spot. Hit hard enough to keep em quiet, so the rest of the group can continue their nice chats.

The End (happy one) Twisted

It flies right past you, doesn't it?
You wrote, "Crying is easy, solutions are hard," in reply to one of my posts.
So, I then linked proof that I provide solutions, that even CCP have acknowledged them and used them as a resource.

... and you responded with a war ... a war on a Null Sec alliance ... that after years you haven't realised that; anything of importance is done by neutrals and not by blues.
So your war is completely ineffectual.
Congratulations. You have demonstrated that war mechanics are broken but we already knew that, again, for years.

... and no. You have a distinct lack of kills against me to be claiming you have landed any punches.
Your in game moves are as impotent as your CSM plans to push your one agenda.

All you are trying to do is lobby for your own selfish interests and pretending to be weighing both sides of it.

I see you are still trying to say that the RL Tora and game Tora are different! Then you post this!

Do you remember the Quote I put as answer to one of your forum posts? I wiill repost it here for you incase you forgot.

"Lies have no legs, They cannot walk far"

Please stop pretending you are bringing anything else to the CSM table as all you are bringing is your ego and double standards.
