It has already been stated a million times that the caps have brought in new business and have kept the arena's in 'good health'. I generally agree with that line of thought and believe HTC has the hard stats to back it up. So to say "The caps suck get rid of them" is an incomplete thought and should be ignored. I personally feel the caps are an incomplete solution to the given said 'arena health' problem. There has to be a better way to address it. I have offered up what imo is a very reasonable solution. The game's population right now only makes for an 'unhealthy' arena during US peak hours which is probably around a 5 hour gap of time. I also believe that stats will show that on a daily basis, the arena's max entry flow rate can be predicted through simple statistics. If you initiate the caps an hour or so before people start getting home from work and logging in, Blue will fill up ten times as fast, minimizing the problem at hand. Also, the caps aren't needed all the way till midnight, especially on weekdays. Maybe on Friday's and Saturdays, but that's it.
The caps could be managed more efficiently. My 2cents.
