Clearly there are players, and its obvious people play but it seems that (in my expiriance) that once a war is declared, everyone seems to go into hiding. Am I the only one that feels this?

People are lazy and don’t accept that (ingame) reality doesn’t adjust to their personal safe space bubble beliefs. So when reality hits, this being a pvp sandbox, they don’t know what to do, didn’t prepare for it, didn’t invest effort into it.
Perhaps they learn but they probably won’t. Which is also fine, as long as they stop infecting new players with their terribleness.

It’s kind of annoying. Like, this is a game where you’re suppose to lose ships and assets. Got War Dec’ed? CTA and launch an all out frontal assault so they think twice about doing it again.
Funny how some don’t accept that ingame reality. Don’t worry though, CCP is releasing an antidote to that new player infection.
Usually you can tell who’s going to log off for a week and who might fight back. Groups of non-pvp’rs our easily overwhelmed players aren’t going to form a fleet against experienced pvp’rs. But large established groups with a combat wing might. Choose your war targets accordingly.
Or just knock down their castle.

No. Star citizen is now a thing.
This has been true forever.
In my dated experience the most interesting wars tended to be hot for a couple days max. But by and large most were pretty uneventful.

I was gonna say the same thing. 10 years ago war dec’s were mostly the same.

Did you wardeck a Corp of industrialists, with no combat skills- and you are asking us why they are choosing to hide, rather than fight?
If you ACTUALLY want a fight, why don’t you wardeck a PvP Corp?
Now this is a sandbox, so if you choose to wardeck a group of industrialists, then that’s your right. But that also means the defenders are free to respond in the way they feel is best.

every corp ive been in thats been war dec has either hid or attempted to fight once after talking a ton of smack and got smacked in the process. 1 of my corps with the ceo blowing a gasket took a 22 man fleets vs 1 guy and his 5 accounts + his corpmate in a logi, they lost about 40 ships in a 22 man fleet. Followed that 1 fight all active members left the corp and the station was destroyed.
another corp i was in was in a wh, talked smack about evicting a group of carebears, they couldnt be bothered to log on for the war more than a couple hours at a time, mean while the carebears brought in mercs, the entire fleet composed of mostly capital ships where destroyed by the merc fleet and 1 dreadnought was lost to a pos, as no one headed the intel about not logging on solo, i just left the wh. all active members also left that corp.

Hahahajahahahahsfha. Really? Isn’t it still only one star system and like a hand full of extremely boring and crappy mission you can’t even complete before it inevitably crashes?

You mean you have to be an idiot for trying to play the game? It us easy to just play the victim, blame the aggressor and logoff for a week.
A better option would be to be as annoying as possible, set traps and actually get some fun out of an in game event that breaks the routine and was payed for by someone else.
But sure, feel free to play the victim and cry. That sure sounds like fun

Now apply your logic to the times when wardecs cost 2 million ISK per week
and every new player could start one pretty quickly.
Ah, I miss the days when we would rotate through the null bloc’s with WD’s.
