Arena Numbers

[elc7367b]

Can someone explain to me why when I try to log in and go to where my squad is at the arena level for orange is 252/200 and the blue arena is 174/250.  This system is totally frustrating at times.

'cos the soup nazi controls the arena caps

To make matters worse, I go back in and try it another time, now its 258/200 in the orange arena where my squad is at.  Geesh!

The arena caps have been a long hashed over issue. It has something to do with the concentrations of players in each LW arena.
The idea is to prevent one arena holding the entire population which has bad social repercussions. While it seems like a good idea, it actually leads to frustration for me a lot of the time. Hence the "No soup for you!" feel of it.

I would like to think of the 2534 posts you have made that they at least had something to contribute other than sarcasm, but alas, that would be too much to ask for.  Next time, use a picture of a dog, cats are for pus...no, won't go there either.

Shortly before you fired up AH II and tried to log in the orange arena was probably 252/300.  Things changed and the cap became 200.  Those that were already in stayed in and that is why the number is higher than the cap.

just have your heart attack and be done with it already !!!! Its a game, if your squad is too uppitty to switch to fly with you, maybe its time for a new squad. The number will even out, fly in the other arena for a flight or two and then try it again.

I just don't understand why the EW and MW arenas have caps of 350 or so and have 30 people in there where as the LW has a cap of 200 people and is filled if not over flowing.
If it's a matter of server bandwidth, why not allocate some server space into the LW arenas from the EW and MW?
(Assuming that is how the servers operate, I could be wrong.)

If you were here for the "big arena split" you would know.
