The cap is just a fix for a problem ANet themselves created: granting AP through dailies and monthlies.Achievements and dailies/monthlies should always been two separate concepts with different rewards. They should also have avoided any temporary, non-returning content counting towards total AP (they could have introduced temporary achievements rewarding zero AP but a decent amount of content specific currency) and be more serious with retired achievements.You cannot expect players to be flawless machines that log every day and complete their dailies, that never go on vacation or miss a few days for whatever reason. And once you lose several tenths of APs for missing days, and since you know for sure you'll be losing a lor more in the future, what's the motivation to go after that overcamplicated or overexpensive achievement? By merging the achievement system, which is a completionist thing, with an unlimited daily system, which is a completely different beast which rewards long term regular play, you slap completionists and end up losing customers.The problem now is that it went that way for so long and the cap is so high, that the AP track became the veteran/daily track for too many people, who eventually met the cap and get (obviously) pissed off. It should have never been this way.
