Why would people bother warring when they continually will be called a leak, or berated for being slow or not rostered on clan wars unless they war on a pc
^^ thats when participation started going down even more than ever before.

1. I believe you are more intelligent than this.
2. There is no way to actually prove this because it is a correlative watson assumption.
3. Why do i feel like you have a hidden agenda because of 1-2?
4. Here's my best hypothesis:
Warring started dropping when kaw population started dropping.
Why did kaw population start dropping?
Because it was no longer a game that targeted the middle class aka the biggest part of it's populus.
What do I mean by targeted? And How was it no longer a game that targeted the middle class?
What i mean by targeted is simply that the devs no longer were rolling out content or maintaining content that allowed the middle class/people with average income and time to keep up with the big spenders or people with a lot of time and obsession with kaw.
How?
The biggest boom in warring on kaw happened when? When a small clan of worms with a guy named val figured out that you could smash other clans with guild hansels and later, shadow hansels in war for valuable equipment.
Why did this end?
The devs successfully figured out how to stop such "exploits" which allowed the middle class players to compete with low stated/low maintenance accounts.
By introducing lands which gave a massive stat increase and a much higher cost they took shots at the middle class kawer. Your bfe was now worthless, and bfa only helped if you were bc, or were small and had a mother ton of it! You could only carry indi war for the smallest bracket. SoS builds, or any kind of account lacking BC or close to BC were now much less viable and could not compete with people who had enough time or money to BC on these new insanely huge BC accounts.
Another reason:
Events and their equipment also killed the middle class kawer as they could no longer compete for the "best equipment" without having to get divorces in their RL marriages.
