Recalculate and cap daily APs
hmmm no. not going to happen.

too much work involved, a lot of people will not be happy.
and it is working fine now.
leave it be. no need to fix what is not broken.
they could, though, add in a lot of new achievements for WvW and sPvP.
Ideally, the Daily and Monthly achievements shouldn’t award players any points, do you really consider these daily chores to be “achievements”? However, the way the system works currently forces players to log on and finish their dailies if they don’t want to fall behind.
My proposed solution would be to put a hard cap on achievement points awarded through dailies and monthlies, somewhere between 1000 and 2500, and leave it at that. This gives players incentive to log on and complete their dailies and monthlies (because laurels apparently don’t do that?), but puts a hard cap on achievement points so that everyone (even knew players) have the ability to earn all achievement points.

Except that the Achievement system IS broken because there is no hard cap.

extra work vs. the tiny, tiny amount of people that ever looks at these leaderboards, let alone care about them.
I like the idea and it is something I have thought about as well.
The daily/monthly system IS broken, unless the leaderboards truly should represent who has been online the most. That is not what achivements represent to me. Achievement leaderboard only makes sense as to indicate who have mastered the largest part of all content. Most people have more achievement points from visiting a Laurel Vendor than from some insanely hard jumping puzzle achievement. The daily/monthly system simply does not fit into the achievement scheme. I’d like it the best if achievement points rewarded for doing the daily chores were simply removed, but if Anet insists on keeping it they should at least allow players to do old dailies. Give us a calendar and let us pick a daily for today. Make it possible to maybe only complete 2 dailies on 1 day. That way it does not kitten anyone. Players on the leaderboard should not be kitten by this – Other people will still have to do the same content that they did.
