Personally I've been trying to move a few big realms into war.
Though The RP's breed from the boring peace in EC keeps it interesting for me.
though I can only speak for Sirion.
And I would LOVE to start a war 
As would I, but I find it works best when you have a legitimate in game reason for doing so. Just for the fun of it doesn't really work to most people... sad as it is...
