You should remove tabs altogether and just list all the arenas in one place.  No way to miss anything that way.

Just replace tabs with different colors to signify between free and pay arenas:




There are the added benefits of making the number of choices look larger as well as making the overall population look larger.

Bingo. 

This is brilliant right here. 

And also I wouldn't show the upper limit (/Max) on the pay arenas.  112/500 makes it look empty.

Yes, it's because people literally didn't see the tabs, and immediately clicked on the MA. I did state this some months ago.

I agree with Caldera on this one.

Yep.  It doesn't look good to show an arena filled to 20% capacity.  If the arena becomes filled, open another.  That's a first world problem that can be dealt with later.

Lusche
    We normally get in the WW1 arena Fri and Sat nights around nine PM EST. We try to make it a gentleman's fight. No vulching on take off or landing. We run a common vox of 258 so everyone can talk across the arena.

I stopped flying in WWI because in its current configuration it's impossible to land successfully.  For whatever reason the air fields now only give ditches.  I tested it with even a simple start flight/exit flight without ever moving and still received a ditch...  so I stopped logging in.

Because score and name in lights is so much more important than the fun of flying and fighting?

Sounds like a bug, which should be reported.  Then again, I wonder if Patch 5 fixed it?

Not so much a score, but my woman belittles me and says I'm not a real man if I don't land kills and get my name in lights.  She says she'll leave me for ghi if I don't get my act together.  She says not sounding like Dracula is already one strike against me.   :cry
