This SS with timestamp shows LWBlue arena.

LW Orange is 154/100.  Blue only has 90 guys in it--but you can see how the imbalances are FUBAR in Blue.

Yup, these caps are marvelous!

Switching sides prevents imbalances.  I don't see what the caps have to do with people switching sides or not, that is a personal choice.

Bish / 35

Knights / 20

Rooks /41

and that's FUBAR ? ... you can't be serious.

ROX is just as clueless as the OP about how the caps work.

Heheh notice how its the 1k plus posters who have all the answers and whine the loudest about something being posted that they are forced to read once again :rofl

The cap routine being on during the day when numbers are low is just silly period and I am SURE HTC could turn it off if they so desired (which was the point of my complaint).  Idiots like some in here try to spin the arguement off into some "oh he's a dweeb" area to deflect an legitimate compliant.

To add insult to injury I usually get closed out of a populous arena after getting the "lost connection to host" message and upon return cannot reenter. :mad:

Fine with me I have 320 or so posts compared to your 1000's so ban won't effect me much.

I agree and as I also mentioned, Skuzzy needs to sticky the explanation on how the caps work.

What does my post count have to do with your whine? The only thing I could think of is my post count is about the same number of times people like you have whined about the arena caps.

I wish you'd elaborate on how post count has anything to do with this whine?

HT does shut it off. I think its noon either eastern, or central time when it comes back on.... most likely about the time you tried logging in. He turns it off so the guy "across the pond" don't get hammered due to the lower numbers they have on at their time.  There has to be a starting point, its at 100 now. If they moved it to 200 next week there would be someone complaining it should be higher. I don't fly much during the day, but those few times I get the chance I've seen the numbers climb quick enough that its not that big a deal. You can complain as much as you like... many, many other have posted the same whine....err complaint and we still have the dynamic cap set-up we have. Why, because its the best any body has been able to come up with that's fair to the most people.

Imbalance has nothing[/] to do with caps and seems to be the norm in the arenas lately no matter the time.



wrongway



The Blue arena was the ONLY LW arena I could get into. For over an hour (stuck at 154/100 in Orange for the longest...if you were there at that time, you would have known), and was subjected to the above LW numbers in the graphic provided.

If I could have gotten into the other LW arena, I wouldn't have had to put up with that crap.

Yes, that IS evidence that arena caps might "solve" some problems in one area while screwing others in the other.

Wrong again ROX. If the other arena was open that wouldn't have solved a damn thing. You would have been in the other arena while LWblue's number would have been the same. It would have just solved your "problem" by letting you run to another arena because you didn't feel the battle war fair.

whats the matter with you two (Banshee7 and Spikes) can't you read??? the guy said ban folks for posting which caused my reply.  BTW congrats you just pumped your 1000's by one more but never mind I am done talking to you people anyhow because like all legitimate complaints on this board it gets stompted by the Fanboiz extraordinaire and THATS what post count has to do with ANYTHING.

HTC can spend thousands on advertisments, it won't be long till you bullies run em off  :rofl
