Every other MMO has their "free weekend" promotion incentives for new players, and SWTOR is no different. For those who think SWTOR is "bleeding" players, I beg to differ. Every new MMO goes thorough this period of people signing up, trying a new game, and then deciding they like their "old" established game better. Seriously, this game has only been available to the gerenal public for three months now, give it some time, and let them correct the issues. I've been playing MMO's for over five years now, and SWTOR definetly has the most potential ahead of it.
It's not going to be a perfect game for everyone, and there are lot's of improvments that still need to be made, but when all that comes together, this game will be head and shoulders above all the other MMO's out there.
I can just imagine the future expansions with additional planets, additional races/classes to play, higher level caps, expanded story lines/chapters for exisiting characters, etc. I can go on and on with potential for this game. If you insist on moving on, fine, this game probably wasn't for you to begin with, but I love Star Wars, and will be playing SWTOR for a long time to come.
