Um... no. It would be boring if there was no conflict. Conflict does not have to be a war... it can be competition, chance, and a multitude of other things. And when is the last time you fought in a war because you needed to blow off some steam?

I pretty much agree... But wars don't happen when a single person wants to "blow off steam"... They happen when the whole country or a REALLY powerful person wants to blow of steam! But I do agree.. Wars could be solved with things that cost no human lives, like a chess-competition. The problem is? It's too little for us humans.. We wanna do everything we can for something that we really want, (e.g: Win a war) and winning a chess competition certainly isn't all!

That certainly would alleviate any of your boredom, and you could come back here and speak with experience, instead of just yammering on about nonsense.

No, propably not. If I went to a war, I'd certainly get experience, but my personal traumas could affect my opinions.. So no, that wouldn't do any good. (Although if there was something that I believe in so much that I could die for it, I certainly would go to a war)
And: More about experience: Are you saying me that you have more experience on these things, as you're older? Or what? Yes, you certainly are older than me... Then in other hand, what the heck does that affect?

And BTW: This arqument certainly is a mini-opinion-war... Wars are ALL the same kind, just in different scales.
This does prove, how simple we humans are... Then of course, I have nothing against that. I live a pretty happy life, try to make it better, (in deeped chasms of the mind, anyway) try to solve the mysteries of life, and other things like that. This is how "god" made us like. ("God" because I don't know what it is.. Some force? Dunno.)
