Well it happens when there are say 199 players and cap is 200. If then 3-5 players enters when they see that one available slot the arena gets "overcroweded" until someone logs off again

The same bug existed in h2h for years, allowing rooms that sometimes had up to 13 players.Then HT fixed (ruined) it...

correct, its not a bug, if 5 guys login to the ready room at about the same time they will each see that there is 1 spot left open in the arena. In stead of the game only letting one of the 5 in ..... and having the other 4 complain on the BBS.... it lets all 5 in.

If the arenas full, just use the other for a flight or two, then try the first arena again if you really must be in the first arena, whats the big deal?

You'd be incorrect in your assessment on both parts.
