OH MY GAWD!!!
Ive just realised how they did it. Google helped. Its just barely listed on this site, I wonder how they figured it out.
I wont give it away, because its clear that the uni wants to keep it quiet. But by my calculation for 18 wars it should cost them 342M per week. Wow!

i'm sure if you reported this to devs the would and should decided the mutal war aren't counted to the number of "active" wars but they might change the limit in due corse to go along with it.

I said on day one of CCPs amateur, idiotic and horrific bodge on wardecs that CCP was putting EVEN MORE power into the hands of the rich.
I prophesised that people would wardec them selves with alt corps, to push the expense so high that no other corp would be able to do it
Nobody believed me.
The one thing I take heart from in this debacle, is that my fans have been vindicated in their belief in me.

They are not mutual - look it up - Unless they have foudn a workaround, they really are spending 5 bill isk a week to immunise themselves.

We'll see they reacted pretty quickly to the filing so this is my last words on the subject till the ruling.

The response to the petition was so fast that I get the impression that the Devs knew it was coming. They obviously can not let this stand or everyone will use this tactic to make their corp wardec-proof.

Originally by: The Hooch Edited by: The Hooch on 25/05/2008 03:02:47 I have played this game for a very long time, I thought I have seen it all... until today.
This is so un-believable I don't know if anyone will even think it is true.
Ivy League has created 20, one-man corps and had them all dec themselves.
BILLIONS Hell, for 2 billion under the table we would have called it off and told nobody about it.
Since we now know you have the isk to waste, the price is now 4 billion for peace.
To quote a member, you may now consider us to be a case of Herpes. We will now never go away, there will be un-expected flare-ups, painful with a great deal of discharge. Your only cure will be 4 billion isk or your final destruction.
Peace, Love, and all that rubbish
Hooch
ps
and people say I am crazy?
Herpes? That's apt.

Disgusting exploit of game mechanics, E-Uni. Your neutrality is now a pile of shattered glass on the floor. I hope whoever put this idea in motion gets banned or expelled from EVE-Uni.

Originally by: DigitalCommunist ASCN did something similar back when wardec fee was based on the number of members in your corp. Stuff like this is hardly earth shattering.
Completely erroneous, but back to the topic.

I thought it was pretty obvious that this could happen
or did they dec another alt corp and then join said alt corp into the alliance and transfer all the wars to the alliance

Pretty obvious that Ivy is not teaching anything worthwhile. ECM frig blobs are not "fleet warfare", and this is just ridiculous. Leave the training to the tutorial and other corps that cater to new players. The so-called instructors seem better suited to wtfbbqpwning NPC's and aweing new players in lvl 4's with their maxed Nighthawk/Golem/CNR's. SP and time in game mean nothing if you're an idiot, but apparently you can go teach at Eve Uni.

Edited by: Lord WarATron on 25/05/2008 06:50:16 1. Create lots of noob alt corps with your spare alts 2. Have them wardec each other via a few mil per wardec 3. Make the noobalt corps they are decing join your alliance, thus dragging free wars into the alliance 4. Make wars mutual
This is how any alliance can stop people wardecing them by making it soo expensive.
The wardec bills are almost nothing. They are not paying anything if they do this right and the setp fee for all the alts is less than the cost of a ship.
Possible fix - Have mutal war corps not count towards the wardec fee total. But that wont work either because then all that will happen is noobalt corps leave the alliance, get redeced and rejoin the alliance. --

Oh no!! They are using game mechanics to their favour!! Cheaters!! Cry to the devs!! Whine on the forums!!
What about for example abusing insurance payout for suicide killing freighters? Isn't that an abuse also? Oh wait .. that is legite game mechanics - because it works in your favour?

I have to say it's rather entertaining to see Privateers, of all people, complaining about another alliance taking advantage of wardec mechanics. Am I the only one that see's the incredible irony here? ----------- EVNS, bringing quality carebearing to a solar system near you! |

There is a extreamly low cost way that any alliance can effectivly make itself immune to wardecs for a few dozen mil and a bunch of disposible freshly made noobalts as shown in post 56. Even if its not privateers today, it will be some isk farmer alliance tommorow who does it. And lets be honest here, ignoring priviateers, only the wardecee pays billions while the people protecting themselves by using this wardec mechanic pay basically nothing.
It is a exploit though not a declared one. --

That is getting funnier and funnier. Now BoB is also complaining about using game mechanics to their full extend? Pos bowling for example, anyone? 'It is possible and unless it is not declared an exploit we will use it'.
So, either CCP says using wardecs this way is an exploit and then no one can use it. Or CCP says nothing (but changes it in the next patch) and then everyone should shut up.
The ONLY way to improve the game is to use these mechanics so that the devs can think over it if they wanted it this way or not and then act.
Again I say: bravo!
