REally ackack,and who was whining about split arenas???and how long ago?

The complaints about split arenas were going on since the split till... last week.

"numbers suck in each arena when players are divided " - "I can't fly with my squad!!!" - "Split arenas increases hording"

And actually, the number and intensity of current complaints utterly pales in comparison to what happened when the arenas had been split in the first place

You can go back at least 20 pages in the general forums and on each page you'll find at least one thread whining about the split arenas and caps.  

Heck, I'd be surprised if Lusche didn't have a pie chart showing the numbers of those threads compared to others.


ack-ack

 Then it sounds to me as if it needs to go back...

I would, if the defunct board search wouldn't prevent it. 

(In fact, I did such a thing once ago with "perk the XXX!" threads  )

I think you ought to distinguish complaints about split arenas from complaints about arena caps. "I can't fly with my squad" is the result of the caps; with split arenas but no caps, anyone could fly with whomever they chose.

Split arenas & caps are inseperably. With exception of the short period of WWI introduction, we only had split arena combined with caps. And when people say, the change sucks and it's worse than with split arenas, they also say: It's worse than capped & split arenas.

 Dont assume lusche,,I could care less about caps if it will fix the current problems..whats being atttempted is a fix and yet keeping caps in palce with 2 arenas..

[doomed]

Hmmmm i wonder what could solve this age old question of cap vs no cap 1 arena vs 2 arena, furball vs base capture. Oh how about two arenas with a 800 cap or whatever and one set up to be furball friendly and one set up to be win the war friendly.

Someone should really bring this up.

[kvuo75]

one set up to be furball friendly and one set up to be win the war friendly.

how exactly do you do that? 

what's wrong with furball AND wtw friendly?

[oTRALFZo]

So many whines about ganging and they blame it on the arana caps.

These guys crying that the world needs to be changed just because they experience some freak anomoly in the system.

I say keep it the way it is. I am enjoying the conspiracy theories some of these guys are coming up with "rook-nit allegance", "HTC hates bish"...etc.

Im saving this one for the books guys and will come biting you in the arse the next time a different country gets ganged. SUCK IT UP!!!..it happens to everyone..it sucks yeah, but every dog has its day.

Just because HTC has not chosen to separate them doesn't mean they're inseparable.

For myself, I think one arena at late night (in the US) makes sense - the player population is too low to support two arenas. But I still don't like the caps, and they're particularly bad in the hour or two before the peak arenas close - the situation for us then is not unlike the situation used to be for you in the early evening: you can never get into Orange, but Blue is too depopulated to be fun. I don't see any reason why the caps couldn't just be eliminated (or go to 850) at midnight EST, two hours before the peak arenas close.
