using irc or chat would only be possible if you break rule 1. please read and follow the rules ;)

You're kidding, aren't you? There's little to do but declare war on others in Dominion. Unless you want a dominion or research win?

Sounds interesting anyway.

people start wars without thinking of the consequences. of course wars are the main part of dominions but diplomacy plays just as much of a role if you want to win

I'm in, this would be my second MP game ever? The first one was only 1/4 done because the server died or something :( Regardless, I look forward to this!

Not in my experience. I rarely saw people willingly fight several wars at once for instance, and they tend to make peace when flanked or backstabbed.
Another example: In Mistletoe, Marignon spammed Armageddon as people invaded him. That's as disuasive as it can get, but the goal being to destroy your opponents, you can't be deterred by someone hurling atomic bombs (or their equivalent) at you. Even if you know your opponent is going to ruin the land, you still fight it (Ermor LA comes to mind).

Don't forget, the consequence of not starting that war would have been an immense Arcane Nexus. Armageddon spam was the lesser of 2 evils, as it left the game open.
