No, that wouldn't work, in my opinion. What is part of the reason that nobody goes to the HA? Because nothing there matters. You can furball to your hearts content, but you don't get a "score" to see how well you are doing. I think wishing for a "furball island" in the Main is a very valid wish. I also don't think it would siphon off all that many people from the "main" MA. People would go there when it was IMPOSSIBLE to find a fight otherwise (i.e. bombers have porked all of your first and second line fields, your country is outnumbered 4 to 1 and both other countries are coming in huge waves). In either of those situations I may very well take off from "furball island" and go looking for some "fun fights". Lazs is very right about a few things. His delivery rather kills his reputation, but that doesn't diminish the validity of the points, in my opinion.
The MA gets downright BORING sometimes, but going to the DA to furball really isnt a valid alternative. A. There usually isn't anyone there, and B. I am some kind of "score potato" and I wouldn't want to "waste" the time I am already wasting playing this game to not even get a reward of perk points or score that is valid in the MA.
I also think that getting new maps would help out some, I do get sort of bored with the old ones. Anyways, thats my 2 cents.
EDIT: Actually, let me clear some of this up. I've got no desire to fly in a situation where my country is attacking another country in huge waves, and is also being attacked in huge waves. I've no desire to partake in a gangbang, either as the assraper or the assrapee. In situations like that I would probably head to the "furball" island until things calmed down or evened up.
