They indicated in Vegas that they were going to change war dec but I have not seen anything official since?
They said âmore details will come in the next week or soâ in the last eve pulse video on the 30th.
So hopefully weâll see a dev blog soon.

It will be interesting, they are trying to code around peoples intentions, that never turns out well 
This is official. Dough no any further information about changes.
What worries me is that I donât really see this as a long term solution that anyone will ultimately be happy with. It looks more like something that treats the symptom of an underlying disease.
Now, I do not declare war on others, and few others have ever declared war on me. I prefer peace to war, and diplomacy to gunfire to get what I want. My experience with wardecs is therefore somewhat lacking. I just want to put that out there so you all know before I get on a soap box.
Thereâs a lot of mention of âthe little guyâ when justifying the needs of changes like this. Indeed, I think we do need to empower the little guy, too, but how I would go about it differs from this in an almost diametrically opposed way.
âThe little guyâ is almost always painted to be some peaceful industrialist, or a small group of them, minding their own business and engaging in some PvE here and there. What about, though, the little guy who wants some PvP action? Do we think about them? I do. I donât want to run afoul of their wardecs, necessarily, but I enjoy a varied and vibrant universe with lots of little groups more than I can appreciate a few monolithic alliances and what they might be up to.
Someone has to stir up trouble. Someone has to raise the call to arms. If we want to think about the ecosystem of the little guy, we need aggressive little guys, too. Theyâd be perfectly good surmountable foes to serve as a wake up call that space is dangerous. A lesson you canât learn too early in Eve.
Making wardecs harder or restricting their scope seems to play into the hands of larger and established groups that can bypass those limitations more easily. It raises the odds that suicide ganking will be the only option for handling a dispute or defending a claim, and I really think there should be other options at a playerâs disposal. Especially the little guy who has the fewest to begin with.
I will be pleasantly surprised if things donât get less colorful. I am not unsympathetic to folks who are mercilessly wardecced with no apparent purpose, but I donât think âYou were wardecced because we canât wardec anybody elseâ would be a satisfying replacement for what weâve got.

This is what highsec used to be like. Back in the day, canflipping and ninja salvaging provided opportunities for âlittle guysâ to get started down a villainous career path with little to no SP. Even wardecs, back when they only cost 2 million isk per week, were an accessible activity for new players. All of these things have gone away, and the highsec ecosystem is much less healthy as a result.
When we âbittervetsâ complain about proposals for additional nerfs to highsec pvp, its because weâve been down that road many times before and seen the harmful impact it has on the game.

There isnât much to code around, if you own a structure you can be war decced, if you donât, you canât, so iâm not sure what intentions you think need to be handled, structures already canât be transferred during an active war and even if you do dec a target they can still just sidestep the war as appropriate, its not like youâre going to find random keepstars to shoot at so it becomes fairly worthless as cheap unfit structures arenât exactly worth the effort in terms of padding a killboard

@Nicolai_Serkanner Thanks for your help.
Try to keep cool though, stress is very very bad for you.
