Wrong! wrong!! wrong!!!
The war treath came from LR first. Please if you are goign to make a statment make one of fact.
when they made the treath i retuned it with a promise of war IF the one that cause the offence at the time apoligised.
Raven did not have to step down. He was given 2 options he chose to step down since he could not get the ofending
person to apoligise for abuse of powers. The war still happened we took over an alliance and did damge before he steped down.

No.
Blackthorn was (unneededly, yes) offended by MRD's meddling with Savelites, and asked "Are you trying to start a war?". The first declaration of war (or to be precise, threats to start a war) was from you. Of course, you could say that the war happened the moment you threathened to start a war between GG and LR, though that's not what it looks like, at least from the other side (where Raven stepped down to [u]prevent [/u]war).
And I do not remember the Savelites take over being done as part of the war (or during, even).
Can't seem to find the topics about it on the forum anymore though, so I'm gonna stop here for now lest I go even more offtopic.
On topic:
A call-for-vote system sounds like a good idea. I do think that the scoring should be harsher than just a 51% majority vote for a land to be declared on war with another land though. Anything less than.. say 75-80% would mean it won't be labeled a "land war". (imagine an extreme scenario, 51% says go to war, 49% don't.. It's not fair to say that land X is at war with land Y just because 51% of land X citizen wants to). The 51% can go to war, just that it's a personal war, not an attack from that land per se.
