for some i think it's all they've known. they enjoyed ganging and found that AH fully allowed this so they stayed. they see no reason to switch or move their squad, because they pay $15/month to gang....anyone who wants otherwise is a whiner to these people because they threaten their gangings and easy kills. some will say they want a challenge, but not enough to change sides. like i've always said, it's HTC's game. i know some in here like to play the whiner card, i would rather discuss the issue and ignore the people who would rather not, as they really have nothing to contribute it seems.
I have just left the arenas and I'm a knight in the ewa, which was the lowest numbered country and found it dead, so I switched to lwa-blue and switched to rooks for the same reason and found that the rooks had become just like the bishops.
Before all of this swapping BS started, I could tell which country I was flying for by what was being said over the vox (or not, in the case of the bishops). After bouncing from country to country for the past week, I've decided that I don't think I like this game anymore.
I'm tired of not knowing whom I have watching my back, nor do I know who it is I'm helping out. Most of the other players are starting to "blur" into each other, if that makes sense. Seems to me that the same people are shooting me down and all of the countrymen I'm up with all have numbers for names. This is the lowest I've scored in a god awful long time, and I don't think I really give a damn anymore.
Then I come in here and hear the same old elitist "it's someone else's fault" and stupid generalizations and assumptions. Take that quote above. Pluck says
"i would rather discuss the issue and ignore the people who would rather not, as they really have nothing to contribute it seems." Not once does he "contribute" in that quote, he's saying absolutely nothing. I thank my higher power that I don't work for the post office.

ok all lets be honest about this problem. squads did not create this mess. peaple pay to play this game so telling them who to fly with is ridiculous to even think about. so lets tell the honest truth here, when the arena's was split it created a whole bunch of problems that with each "fix" keeps getting worse. i have also seen many of those that say they are side switchers, but in reality they are on the side with the largest number of players. so lets just admit that the multiple arena's didnt work go back to the big MA and start having fun again. and for the 10 or 15 guys that like the EW and MW keep em for them.
OK, I hate saying this, because it means I'm admitting I was wrong, but I'm starting to agree with this outlook. Since the split up, I seem to have more and more connection and lagging problems. I'm beginning to think it's because the servers have been divided and are trying to keep up with four different world. Or my provider could have screwed up my connection, yet again. More people are whining, including those whining about the whiners. I really haven't seen too many people playing in any of the other arenas and one late war arena will fill to the brim before the other late war arena can even get close to capacity. When the lemmings start running off of the cliff, I just
have to go and watch. Maybe the lemmings are on to something. Maybe I was wrong in assuming that the splits would be a good thing. Nobody in the arena's seem to want it and the only ch200 whines I hear are from the same people whining here in the forum.
Sorry, I'm just discouraged with this. I should be better later.
