The post can be deleted and another made, easy for him to fix, so no excuses.
In which case you need to fix your dodge of the filter. No excuses right?

I would say this absurd complaining over a broken quote tag is pointless and needs to stop, but TBH is there really any more constructive discussion to be had in another carebear whine thread?

No, this thread has been pretty much exhausted. The OP has stopped responding and if nobody else replies it will sink into oblivion and even the borked quote can be safely ignored.
Within moments I edited it to note the actual source of the quote to prevent that
Donât worry this poster is a bitâŚwellâŚyour fine.
Guess the gaming press are joining the argument: https://massivelyop.com/2018/07/22/eve-evolved-four-changes-to-improve-eve-online-for-new-players/
âWar declarations need a serious overhaul to allow groups of friends to safely form social corporationsâ
By the way, you guys should totally go rip the idiot who wrote that article.
He is a bit of an idiot. Set up a private channel, stay in an NPC corp avoid war decs and get the social benefits.

âIâve always considered EVE Online to be more of a long-term social hobby than a gameâ
I think that explains it all. The author thinks EvE Online is Second Life.
Itâs only PvP in Null where there is no need for war decs or ganking. I doubt if Marmite would ever travel so far as the deepest depths of New Eden to engage PvPerâs. Why? Because its too easy to war dec a small corporation and blast their ships apart.
One good thing about the war dec system is that you can provide assistance to a corporation that has been war dec.
But because of the thousands of alts that are used to trap players into joining a war against Marmite for example that are simply AWOX corporations that Marmite uses to then gank the ally the War Dec system is broken.

Itâs amazing that a game which has long term benefits for remaining with friends is compared to a game where long term benefits for remaining with friends in space ships shooting at each other. Itâs like they have absolutely nothing in common.
âFriendsâ in video games are about as real as those 500 âfriendsâ on Facebook he probably has.
My GodâŚyou sound like my wifeâŚ
I think that as times and technology change and old institutions are displaced by new ones the concept of community and friends is also changing. Whereas in the past people used to go to church, various local organizations, and so forth, the internet is allowing people to form different communitiesâŚare they better or worse than what has preceded them? IDK.

Okay,I agree war is not fair,but if you look at the warâs from an logical perspectiv why should allow you to kill your opponent only by paying 50mio? I think there should be a system implemented concerning PVP-Wars
The money you should pay should depend on the PVP-Activity of Your Opponent .So itâs pretty sure that the party you the war for 50mio can fight back
Youâre operating under the assumption that the cost is meant to be a deterrent to declaring war, like itâs supposed to some kind of barrierâŚItâs just the cost of using the mechanic.
Similar to the cost of using jump clones or setting up a corp.
Itâs not meant to judge whether your targets can defend themselves and never should. If youâre in a corp, you are declaring to the game you are READY for warfare.
Donât like it? Donât be in a corp.

Mate, it is. At some point wars were 2 million isk a week. They ramped it up specifically to pull newbros outta the equation. The cost âs really meant to be a deterrent and itâs still workinâ as that. Ya need to be lookinâ at who canât pay it, not at who can.
This is a good point. Making wars cost as much as they do now is unfair to newbies who wish to engage in war. The cost should be reduced to zero ISK.

Whyâre ya fuckinâ with me?
Youâll have to show me where it says thatâŚ
The 50mil isk isnât intended as a barrier. Just the cost of doing business. Even the way the cost goes up against bigger corps is because you have more targets. Itâs still not a designed as a deterrent.
For all you know the cost of decs went up in 2012 because itâs now harder to avoid decs.
mate, i just realized that thatâs not the devblog ya should be linkinâ. i am not talking about the changes made in 2012, but before that. for the sweat on my skin, i canât â â â â â â â find the â â â â â â â devblog about this. itâs been ages.
