I've tried to fly in the AvA arena. I logged in tonight to try again, but was quickly reminded why I go there so rarely. No matter how much work or good intentions you CMs put into it, the arena remains a ghetto from the poison named Storch.
Sure, I can squelch him, but it doesn't change the fact that his abusiveness affects players and contributes to the bizarre arena atmosphere. I, like others, would like to enjoy the arena, but will stay away because I simply don't need that crap in a game.
