Many players are reporting that the “Join” links are missing from the Arena lobby and the only option to join Arenas is to use the “Fight Now” buttons. I have this issue on my account but my alternate accounts are all fine. Johnny Bravo, the long time #1 Respect leader (until no lose Respect became permanent) , noticed this started to happen once his Respect hit 3,600. The issue was resolved but returned about a week ago. Zynga should allow more control over which Arenas players choose to join. The “Join” links have always lacked in functionality for many [1]. When they do work, it’s the closest thing players have to somewhat choosing the opponents they fight. If you are missing these links, please comment with your Respect rating.


since arena started i have had problems when you join click it says unable join another so have to click fight now so up against respect level 3000 plus i am only 1890
ReplyDeleteJoin links in "Family Battle" seem to be missing for me.......
ReplyDeleteRespect 1485
ReplyDeleteNot only are the links missing for me but when I have attempted to use the fight now button, I'm taken to a plain black screen where nothing loads. Next time I log in...it tells me what arena I've lost in. Needless to say, not too encouraged to try it again!
ReplyDeletearena sucks and is killing mafia wars.
ReplyDeleteI think it already killed mafia wars. I derive no pleasure with the arena. Since the arena has apparently caused the fighting debacle there's not much left to like in this game.
DeleteI have a felling that the the fighting debacle will end when the Barbershop Quartet closes. Often when they bring something out it messes something up and when that item is gone things go back the way they were. I know that waiting for zynga to fix it is like waiting for the Easter Bunny to bring you chocolate eggs
DeleteLevel 2383. I have never been able to join an arena of my choice. I only fight there to get my daily 150 ices as it is now impossible to get them through normal fighting. I hate the arena and only use it for my family progression.
ReplyDeleteI know for a fact that mafia wars has been affected!
ReplyDeleteI have had this problem for over a month now.
ReplyDelete2745 haven't been able to join arenas I want to in 3 months
ReplyDeleteI've never been able to join a particular arena. Have to use the fight now. 2174
ReplyDeleteI have never been able to join an arena of my choosing since the Arena started. Fight now 100 or fight now 500 have been my only options.
ReplyDeleteI was having this problem from the beginning on my mini it used to have 1600 respect now it has 4316 respect arena works with demon from www.mafiawars.com i am playing directly
ReplyDelete1702 ...Never been able to choose an arena from the start till now. Don't like the arena and even when I score the most I get second or lower place. My MW game has been messed up for over a month now too. Messed up so bad that I rarely even try to play, because it's Impossible to play! I'll probably quit altogether.
ReplyDeletei think some player can join normal (http) and the other with secure (https) ,then "join" button will show up, and don`t know why `z` make that different.
ReplyDeleteI have never been able to join an arena with the "join" buttons either. I always just let the arena pick by clicking on the 'fight now 100' tab. The problem then is that Zynga throws me in with the sharks several 1000's above me in respect and several l000's in level beyond me. Guess which position I end up in?
