Hm. Of course I can't comment on how successful AH is as a business (have no data about subscription numbers, only very rudimentary knowledge about the MMOG market and so on...)
But player numbers logged at any given time have dropped significantly for some time now.

oo so when the HT people want the people at the con to fly as a group they make things happen, but as for the rest of the paying customers when we are our friends want to fly together who the hell cares....because of the "toxic social environment"
Like it or not, he makes a good point.  Too bad the point was made in such a caustic fashion.

if having one LW arena with no cap sucks so much why implement it for such an important even THE CON.


why not make this the default....or if they must two servers with a SET PLAYER LIMIT THAT CORRELATES TO THE MAP SIZE???

this just proves if that they have been BSing us about the arena caps and so on...1 LW arena with no caps truly is the best for everyone.

Dont listen to what HT says about a "healthy social environment" thats just some new age hippy/eugenics crap....limit population, what a joke....only eugenicist who want to limit the human population because of the fake global warming believe this stuff.

The only jokes are yourself and your pathetic trolls for attention.

Just blue skying here because I have neither the inclination or the interest in disputing the business practices of an individual or group thereof who have grown a successful one from the ground up.  That said... anybody ever consider the fact that this arena might be an experiment to gain empirical data on the dynamics of the current player base? And no I didn't 'hear' anything or discuss anything on this subject yesterday just taking a stab in the dark.  

Mash... if needed could you put that in one syllable words if necessary?   Thanks in advance.

at least im not a fool like most of the people here making up stupid things to cover up the reality of the arena caps.....

it prevents people from getting in to the populated server (especially when it turns on for the day),so even though their is a second one no one is in it.....and that is a problem

You have noticed it too in recent tours......

Seems the tone in the arenas has lost it's vlugar personal spice. We may be able to fly as one arena for awhile until numbers return with a good economy and the spice returns with it. In an arena with 400+ players last night ch200 was tame. Most of the grousing was (Eeeekkk) Polite. If we can return to a single MA for awhile it might help rebuild a feeling of community and remove the frustration some squads have in not being able to fly together on demand. The feelings of community and solidarity are very strong motivational factors in why people are long term regulars in community groups.

If people are obtuse enough to pay and not play rather than go into the open arena where "no one is in it" is their prerogative.

milesobrian, please make sure you are in the con arena around 8pm CST.  Hopefully with voice enabled so we can hear you cry.
