Recently there has been a huge fuss regarding the state of PVP within the Primordia server. I've formulated a suggestion, or rather idea, to combat some of the main issues regarding PVP.
Declarations of War
Nations may not conduct lethal operations (Player vs Player killing) until a formal declaration of war has been comprised and announced for the entire community to see.
Much like the Declaration of War, a peace treaty, publicly posted/declared would clear up the mass-confusion about whether or not raids should be conducted on a specific faction.
The above ideas deal with users in a faction, what if I don't belong to a faction?
PVP for those people that do not belong to a faction will remain on, and users may still freely conduct raids or attack a nation. Those that aren't in factions are looked at as the "wild" people, so to speak within the server, much like the outlaws were looked at in the old west. Not all users that fall under this category left nations or never joined them to stay out of the affairs. Many stayed away or left to avoid the constant issues that were going on with the present PVP system. Declarations of War and Peace Treaties may encourage users to join factions again, however I can not accurately decide this.
Now that you've taken the time to read what I've said, please do post your suggestions/ideas/questions in response and we will continue to move forward and try to create the best experience for all users on the Blocktopia Primordia Server.

- This will help with the un-warranted or un-wanted raids conducted by specific users within a family
- It will help to clear up the confusion and fuss about nations being at at war with each other
- Throughout world history and the wars within, nations have more often than not declared war on each other before conducting in lethal operations (yes, I know there are exceptions, i.e. Pearl Harbor and the attack on Americans by Japanese)
- Help to improve the realism of the server, and give users a more genuine feeling of war, enhancing experiences while playing on the Primordia Server
- Provide documented proof of nations being at war

- Clear up confusion about nations being at peace/at a cease-fire
- Give users a more genuine and official feeling of peace or war
- Give documented proof of nations being at peace
- Prevent stray or unlawful users from conducting lethal raids against a neutral faction, in turn preventing the handfuls of counter-raids that occur from these attacks
