Someone with 5 characters with 2 at war vs a newbie with 1 character at war out of 2 characters means that the noob is in more wars than the older player proportionately. The poll doesn't 'mean' anything at alllll. It should be in fractions or % of characters for it to mean anything at all. Right now it's just randomn numbers being voted on with no meaning.
I don't think so. Of course if you have only two characters you are less likely to be in wars, but from a game-wide perspective the result is the same: you as a player are not in any war.
What this poll tells me is that 87% of people are part of at least two different wars. This is more than I expected. It is also pretty much in line with what I would call an ideal situation: no one can deal with 7 different wars anyway! If you're in two different wars there should be plenty of warfare to go around.
If there isn't, then it's a sign that it's not the quantity of wars that is an issue but the quality of wars.
