All systems will fail.
As long side A isnt hooked (real clan base that lets you think wohhaa its mine) to its port and side B has a reason (expanding crafting buildings because of restricted slots, access to resources, etc) beside ruin dreams of side A there will be no long term conquest. There has to be losers to create meaningful stuff. But losing is nothing the community wants. We all want to be winners.
And because we all want to be winners we have carezones and shitty conquest. Because when we cant be winners we leave, become assholes, forming alliances that bash everything aka rvr gank.
So we got what we deserve. nothing 😉
