also to add about this Ilum thing. If you did play WoW during the wrath expac and had that privldge to play wintergrasp for the first time, do you remember how bad that was? the horrible lag? the being out numbered 30 -1? being in there with 70's when you were an 80? they took months to fix that place and when Blizzard finally got it somewhat balanced they came out with a new expansion. so just wait and they will attend to your PvP needs. Bioware has more pressing issues to deal with. Like those effing green and orange lines everywhere what the hell is that about?

I totally agree with the majority of posters on here for the dire need of server specific forums. I am not new to MMO's, but I am a complete newbie to this game as i know one person that even plays it. I have tried to search for a guild on my server for a little while now that would fit my specific wants out of this game , as i know they are out there. The way it is set up now is horrible and I do not see this server group forum being any better. The problem with this is that you are going to get ranters, ravers, trolls, and general nonsense from 1000's of players all the time and to stick those 1000's into a small confined area is going to be bad. as you can see right now your forums are not doing well. This "minor" split of the forums will not help. In my opinion, you are only doing this to quite the mass amounts of out cries for server specific forums and at the same time trying to seem like you have control over what people will say on your forums. What really is going to happen is that the aforementioned posters are going to now be mixed together with the recruitment's and the WTS' making it yet again impossible to find anything on these forums. I understand you want to be different than every MMO and that's fine. Change is not always the best thing in all cases. Take a page from World of Warcraft's forums and let the community police the forums more than you. You can still moderate what is going on in the more "public" forums like general, community service, tech support, ect..., but leave the server specific forums to the community. It works, you will not need the man power to moderate all those forums and when things do get reported for ToS breaks then check them out and handle them appropriately. It's that simple.

so basically Bioware will not put up server forums because they can not moderate them? UMMMM HELLO!!!! What do they think other MMO's do with their server forums? THEY HAVE THE PUBLIC MODERATE THE FORUMS! This is why they put up report buttons.

I'm going to have to agree with some of the posts here and say go play another game. WoW, Warhammer, whatever just take your PvP rants and go away. You want real PvP Go play MW3 or battlefield or something to that affect. Bioware and Lucas Arts have specifically said that this is a RP game and want people to feel like they are a part of the star wars universe. PvP does not advance any storyline ever. PvP is the same on all games like this. There is little to no communication between teammates. You die a lot. You get mad at the 12 year old that lol's you every time he is by you even if he is getting killed and then you log. These rants are on every forum for every game and they are mostly by PvPERS
