I have a 6 year old fort, 2.3 mil wealth and 210 dwarves and I CANNOT get anything at all to attack me. Not even a single snatcher from the gobbos, I have killed every elven and human caravan I've seen and NOTHING. Is there a way I can check to see if I may have accidentally turned savagery really low? And can I change it?

If you're willing to dig deeper, I'm sure you could find some worthy opponents down below.

Giant Toads, Trolls, Dralthas are fodder for my militia. I haven't even seen a FB yet after SIX years.

Clowns seem out of the question as the forums talks about them being a no doubt about it, demise to your fortress.

Clowns are easy if you've got the goooood stuff.

Well now you're just being picky.

Remember your embark screen? Press tab a few times and then you'll see what civilization has access to your fort.

If you want wars with the humans/elves, you should kill their diplomat.

Elves do not have diplomats currently, I've heard Quietust (or any other DF veteran) knows the code for it.

Know, that killing caravans in this version just stifles their trade with you (meaning that you won't get more and more exotic stuff to trade as they count a caravan death as a profit loss).

I made sure all four civilizations were in range, but there was red --------- next to Goblins. Explanation?
How might I get the human diplomat to show up at my fortress? Is it just a random occurence?

That should be there. It means you're hostile to them but not at full-on war (you're not gonna get sieged immediately).
Diplomats don't exist for other races, just dwarves.
Back-up your save, abandon, and read up on legends mode if you're really interested.

The lack of FB's has to tell me that savagery is low. Might there be any other explanations for one not to have shown up yet?

I'm digging to the circus as I type. D:

Suggestion to everyone: Use wordplay to hide those words. We use clowns, the circus and other fancy words to say what is deep within.

It is a hidden treat for a reason.

I have resolved to cut down countless numbers of trees to try and get a rise out of the hippies elves.

Yeah, you're thinking about the past stereotype. Currently, they send no diplomat, hence no tree-cutting-quota.

Without the diplomat, they won't care. Without that, there will be no war.

Savagery only affects what wild animals will spawn. The problem is probably that you have invasions turned off.
