Instead of having “war”, designate declarations from corporations which have disproportionately smaller numbers against a higher number corporation as a “skirmish” or this can be set from either side’s point of view so it doesn’t mislead people into thinking that a 25 man corp against a 15,000 member corp for instance is anything serious. This could be on a sliding scale so that a declaration seen as less serious or a friendly “war” can be termed correctly, so perhaps distinct categories like “friendly”, “skirmish”, “war” would make what is happening inside the corp more obvious

So you want to change the names so that the losing side doesn’t feel as bad when outnumbered?

I propose to call it “slaughter” instead. Isn’t it better? 😈
