Good words from a good businessman........ A business.......... A business?  Oh Geez, HTC is a business!  Who would have thunk it.  And yes sir..... They do think you to be naive...... Waitinf for them to tell you.  K.... Done kissing your tucos!  But you are right!

Rox: The only fact you state is that you have talked to people who say that have left because of the arena limit.

There is no other fact in anything you say.

Do you really believe we are so naive as to not see , listen, look at all option possible, and that we do not monitor when and why people leave , how the current economics effect us.

The real facts are that, more people were leaving because of over crowding in 1 arena then leave because of the arena split.

The fact is this is not a small number of customers we now have because we made the split.

The split is not going to go away, the only thing that can changed based on new ideas is how the arena split is performed.

That's the reason I haven't played lately. Thinking of calling it quits myself. Now, make whatever you want to of it.

[ROX]

So in your circle of people you communicate with, it's the number 1 reason. 

That's fine, I can live with that.  I was just curious how you could speak for the entire community.

I do note that in your 17 man squad, every last one of them has played this month.  Things can't be that bad if they have found reasons to continue playing

Don't speak for the entire community.  Never professed to.  YOU said that.  

Dude---get out of the cave and network once in a while.  You might actually learn something about people, their families, how they play the game and their concerns about game issues.

If you don't like me--that sounds like you have a personal problem.  Take it up with your shrink.

It might be nice if you took the time to get your facts straght though...oh wait...I forgot....it's DAN.

We've lost 3 squaddies to the sewer that is Blue in the last 6 months and DrPizza has been MIA for months.  I emailed them back letting them know there were no hard feelings.  Two hopped sides because they were sick & tired of getting gangbanged and the huge numbers imbalances, another left the game to go play some other game because he refused to side hop. 

Not one member of the squad hasn't felt extremely frustrated over the last year about the problem.


 

There ya go...HiTech says there's no problem--hence--no problem exists.





ROX

[Ack-Ack]

More like saying ROX says there is a problem when one doesn't exist.  So you've had 3 people leave your squadron, that hardly equates a long list of veterans leaving.

ROX

Quoting you  "It's the #1 reason why most long term paying subscribers I know have left the game."    You sure said it like you had the info.  I asked you to clarify as I believed HTC would be the only one who could make such a blanket statement.  You said it was from people YOU have talked to.    So your statement wasn't based on fact based on any specific information, but going on what you'd heard from people you know which hardly speaks for the entire player base in AH.

<Points to Hitechs reply>

Asking a question to get a clarification hardly implies like or dislike ROX.   I don't dislike anyone in AH.  I don't have the time to, or would it be worth the effort as I don't know that many folks here well enough to put the energy into disliking them

I said--in plain English--it was the #1 reason with the folks I talk with and network with, nothing more.

Please scroll up and re-read.

Inferring that I have some way to get at all the account list and speak for every single person who has left is insanely hogwash.

ALSO:  Please exaplain the innacuracy of your quote on my squad, please.

Honestly, what 'long time vet' quit because of the arena caps and/or ENY? 


ack-ack

Can't think of 1 myself ... the BKs (who have quite a few "long time vets") are on the low at the moment and some of them have been for quite some time, but not one of them has put their stick aside because of the "arena split" ... real life and more than average sucky gameplay seems to be the most common reasons.

[Steve]

It has a cap of 340/300 or something for hours,

This skipped past exagerration and went straight to lie.


 Hitech claims people were leaving because there was only one arena.....ok. I guess I'll take his word for it but I hadn't heard anyone that did so. *shrug*

[SlapShot]

I said--in plain English--it was the #1 reason with the folks I talk with and network with, nothing more.

Ummmm ... no ... this is what you said ...

It's the #1 reason why most long term paying subscribers I know have left the game.

Which is far more sweeping and general than your last (and changed) statement.

[MORAY37]

Ummmm ... no ... this is what you said ...

Well, he equates his statement to what he knows.  Which, demonstrably, isn't all that much.

[DMBEAR]

I can't imagine quitting the game because of caps.  I love this dern game.

I got spanked by Hitech and Fugitve when I banged my head about arena caps the first time. * I even got scored on the Krusty meter *My head still hurts cause I keep banging it in hopes of the caps being gone.

The choice of 2 areanas without caps at any time should give everyone the things I hear the caps are keeping them from.

1.  A Choice when its MA Orange 197/150     MA Blue 32/150

2. A chance to fly with your squaddies anytime, instead of texting them in red that caps suck.

3. Not getting locked out of a good time if you loose connection.

*4. All the people that dread Titanic Tueday would always have another option.

*5. More people in the arena, more action would please what seems to be the majority.

6. the option to go to a small arena where FPS and evil fake darbars wont kill the game for you if that is what irks you.

*these two are the biggest complaint I have read as oppossed to caps.

I know there are threads and threads on this stuff, but it just seems like there wouldnt be a problem if the caps were gone and you had a choice.

Not even kidding here...I'm am starting to believe what everyone is telling me.  I must not get it.

I'm going to hide behind my couch now. 

[SlapShot]

This particular problem may be gone ... but another would only pop up in it's place ... and most likely the problem that caused the arena split in the first place ... unhealthy arenas.
