People who complain about a lack of communication are usually the last to actually open up a DM with someone to start a discussion. I've never had trouble having a conversation with someone when it was needed to clarify something or plan something I had in mind, but I've only received a DM from someone to clarify or plan IC interactions a few times. I have, however, seen a lot of people complain about never being asked or communicated with when they also have the ability to open up DMs at any time.

Also, rules for war are incredibly divisive. We either all agree that it's tallied up like a sportsball game and we get some wacky results, or we all have to agree that GMs are going to have a huge say in this and the winners who didn't win as much as they wanted or the losers who lost more than they'd like don't really have any right to complain.

Ideally, war becomes a way for people to run events, tell a story, and create and interesting conflict. There are a few tools that we could get that might help with this, but nothing stops us from doing it already besides the fact that conflict is heavily sporadic IC and the four largest powers have a lot of reason to keep the status quo and only take targets in the form of the 'little guy.'
