Very few people care about arena, which is sadly ironic since blizzard seems to spend far more time and energy balancing classes for arena performance than pve (which id say is what 90% of us care about). There is already talk of nerfing hunters, rogues, and mages due to burst damage in arena, which is going to leave them underpowered for pve and raiding. Maybe you could make arena servers where the rules are different or something and leave the rest of us alone? Arena sates a very select few who are trying to turn a mmo into a twitch shooter. Regrettably those select few spend the time there not in the arena bitching on forums.

"Very few people care about arena"

While I personally do not care about arena, at all, I think this is an assertion which could do with a little more evidence.

I see plenty of people who care about arenas. I see plenty of people who care about raiding. I see plenty of people who care about neither of them. Given that Blizzard is attemption to make a game that appeals to everyone, of course they need to dedicate a fair bit of attention to arena PvP, even if I'd be perfectly happy for them not to.
