As you all know MassiveCraft war declarations has been removed due to players complaining about having to create one just to PVP other factions, we suggest MassiveCraft Staff re-enable it but as an optionial feature.
To new players:
What is a war declaration?
A war declaration was a system devised by MassiveCraft to control over-raiding of Factions. Players were only able to fight other factions continuously if they had an Approved War Declaration. Winning a war would then grant the winning faction a war trophy and tribute of either regals or items from the surrendering faction.
An example of a War Trophy between an old winning Faction "Raptum" and an old surrendering Faction "Shizidao" for their war.

Re-enable war declarations but only as an optional feature.
One must not write a war declaration to fight another faction but just to notify the community that the faction is going to war with another. still however ensuring that the faction will gain their war trophy and tributes if they have succeeded in the war.
Pros of re-enabling MassiveCraft War Declarations
+ Players will strive for achievement. meaning they will be motivated to fight for there is greater reward other than the weapons, some items and the possibility of gaining a player's head. additionally the victory status of their factions on the forums.
+ Players will be able to see if other factions are fighting with each other, notifying them that there is a war going on.
Cons of Re-enabling MassiveCraft War Declarations
- Staff must dedicate a period of their time to approve/deny war declarations also conclude the wars, set it as either Victory or Defeat, and overlook the whole process. Players must then wait patiently (between 1 - 2 days)
- Surrendering factions will have to cope with their defeat on the forums. (indeed something demoralizing but the greatest courage on earth is to bear defeat without losing heart! do not think a single defeat is a final defeat!)
