What it comes down to though is that HT consider large numbers of customers sharing an arena a bad thing for business because everyone behaves badly.
Your allowed to complain all you want, but it isn't going to do any good. While "caps" suck nobody has come up with any better way that is fair to populate 2 arenas. Many have tried and all have failed due to one thing or another. As the OP posted, it's your $15, but remember your $15 is being paid for what HTC is supplying, and they are supplying a game WITH caps.Not that it matters, but I never played Genie, I started when AW hit AOL. I do remember 5 1/4 inch drives, as well as those lovely tape drives that you would load up your game BEFORE supper so you could play AFTER supper
OK Spin lets do it your way. HTC sets the cap at 300, you log in and your number 310, that means your stuck in an arena with 9 other guys. Would that make you more happy than you are now? Seeing as the community CAN'T police itself the first 300 people on WILL all go to the first arena.... it doesn't even matter if its orange or blue, it's the population that matters.On the other hand HTC's way has 200 in the first arena and the other 110 are in the second arena. Sure you still can"t get into the "200" arena, but atleast you have 110 people in the second arena making it more playable for EVERYONE.You can complain all you want. The problem is first, people have been complaining for years and guess what WE STILL HAVE CAPS! Why is that? It's because like it or not it the ONLY fair way ANYONE has come up with to populate 2 LW arenas. Hitech has said he will listen to ANY proposal to do it differently as long as it populates the two arenas fairly/evenly. You can say YOU think the numbers are going away and the game will fail if this continues....blah, blah blah, but Hitech has said his numbers have INCREASED since he split the arenas and added the dynamic cap system. Without seeing the numbers, it's up to you to decide if it's the truth or not, but the numbers of people on-line when I log in seem much higher than before so I tend to believe him. Caps are here to stay. Work WITH THEM, it's a lot less stressful and you can have a bit more fun.
You could have one arena with no caps, or two arenas and let the customers go where they want. It seems to work on Tuesdays .
Well I was one of the most vociferous against arena caps when they came out....and i still don't care for them...I must say that in general I have no problem getting into the arena I want when I want. Of course it can often mean exiting and reentering the game a number of times to find the numbers i need to get into the arena i want.....an annoyance but not a deal breaker. Costs me typically bout 5 minutes.I guess I would like to understand the benefit of arena caps in order to support them more...in other words how have they helped the game?
Suggest away, HTC has stated that they will not go back to a single main arena full time. They have the proof in numbers that it was bad for the game.What don't you people get?
Is your internet connection free?
It is not a question of "getting it" or not. As a paying customer one of our few rights is to complain about something if we don't like it.
