1.) SERVER POPULATION - This is hands down the number 1 issue with this game. When on 99% of the servers (all excl. Fatman) you see "Geared Healer LFG ANY HM" for 2 straight hours in general chat, before the frustrated healer finally gives up and logs off... You have a problem. 2.) SERVER POPULATION - When you level from 48 to 50 while waiting for 1 warzone queue to pop... You have a problem. 3.) SERVER POPULATION - When you level 3 characters to 50 on a PvP server and encounter world PvP exactly ONCE... You have a problem. 4.) SERVER POPULATION - When your entire guild leaves the game due to the server being dead... You have a problem. 5.) BIOWARE OVER-PROMISING AND UNDER-DELIVERING - When a company pulls a blatant bait and switch on their content release (see ranked warzones), in an effort to regain the hemorrhaging subscribers, said company quickly loses my trust and no longer gets "the benefit of the doubt" when it comes to future planning and content releases. 6.) CUSTOMER SERVCE - The constant censorship of these forums and actually paying for resources to collectively ignore the community, rather than paying the same resources to communicate and interact with the community. It would be like calling your ISP for tech support and rather than having the Tech quickly help you with your problem, they instead waste the same breath and say "I'm sorry this question has already been asked. Please check our website and see if you can find the answer posted there." There are many more problems I could list, but really when you analyze the root cause, it all stems back to server population and having no other humans to play with.

I'm not going to resubscribe.... As much as I want to. I had very high hopes for this game, but unfortunately due to terrible management it simply hasn't succeeded. I have 5 characters across 2 servers. My 3 50s that I left on Warriors of the Shadow have been completely abandoned due to a DEAD server. The game is great and has amazing potential... But BW planned for growth terribly and has already lost their subscriber base. My other server is The Fatman. I rerolled there with my 130 man guild. Not one of them has logged on in over 3 weeks... The entire guild left the game - even after transferring. All of my RL friends have left the game. There is simply no reason to stay any more.... If I wanted to play a single player game I'd play solitaire. 1 little stat to leave with... 4:30pm Monday (Memorial Day) 116 US servers. 1 Full (Fatman), 1 Standard, 114 Light (Dead). I play MMO's to play games with you know.... Other people...

Add my entire Guild to the list of players that have abandoned this game due to inability to transfer servers or having them merged. A select few have rerolled on The Fatman, but SWTOR, a potentially great game, has been abandoned by another 100 players due to the ineptitude of BioWare to implement a SIMPLE gaming system that is fun to play. No one wants to play an MMO on a dead server. I think the final straw for my guild was having 19 people on fleet and hour long queues for WZs on Friday night at peak time. I know I personally leveled from 48 to 50 in one WZ queue. One of the guildies checked the server status and out of 116 US servers, SIX had standard population, and 110 had light. This is on a Friday night during prime time. If this isn't plainly obvious that the game is dead with the exception of one or two servers... I don't know what is. The fact that server merges haven't been implemented is appalling. I'll leave you with the current trend of my particular server over the last 30 days... It's scary. http://www.torstatus.net/the-fatman/trends/30d#!/warriors-of-the-shadow/trends/30s

Not possible for 1 person to hold the ball the whole time. Ball carrier will explode after 2:30 and possession will automatically change. Maybe instead of the ball carrier, attack the healers next time. 15:00 of standing in a corner should be plenty of time to formulate a plan of attack to down the ball carrier and his healer(s). Or keep running 1 by 1 like idiots into a Zerg... Either way - working as intended... Moving right along.

And to think this OP actually started a pseudo-intellectual conversation. This game... Sigh...

Winner! Can't believe how many sheep we have on these forums... And for my next trick, a post on how overpowered mercenaries are!

There is a reason that you're seeing this increase in healers. I can promise you it isn't because healing is super awesome now that 1.2 has decreased the TTK significantly, nor is it because we actually like healing... I'll let you draw your own conclusion as to why this might be.

Oooo this gets me every time! /howls laughing Hahaha!

Oh no you DIDN'T just go all Michael Phelps on me!

I've noticed that my Sith Warrior's complexion is a bit rosier than usual... As a dark side character, I surely wouldn't want anyone confusing my character's alignment choice with the fact that he could be wearing the latest and greatest Mary Kay product. Can we please get a Dev team looking into this immediately? I think it's lengthening the cooldown on my Operative's backstab. Yep. Thanks in advance!

Serious post is serious. Don't get your panties in a bunch. I guess I can go rage on the streets in Seattle instead of defusing a hostile gaming environment on the internets with funnies.

Highlighted for awesome

In all fairness the Jedi Knight hair issue was a PVP problem.

I saw that free Character transfers will be made available in "early summer". I dont want to continue to play on a dead server. Can you please open up PAID character transfers like YESTERDAY? This isn't an outlandish or difficult request. I play an MMO to play with, you know, other people... I'm tired of seeing this when I get online: "HEALER LFG ANY HM"... For 2 straight hours... Healer sighs and logs off. Or IMPERIAL FLEET: 7 Hopefully this early summer business doesn't turn into a similar debacle as the ranked warzone release. I also hope I'm still subscribed by then... I really like this game (when there are other people to play it with).
