From that thread, it appears that the Republic is farther along than the Imperials because they have more guilds on the list. However, I also don't really understand what the list is saying, as I'm very new to the game. Would anyone mind looking at that list and helping me to decipher which faction has made more progress?

Since it now sounds like the Imperials are better for PvP, which faction tends to make more progress in PvE? Does anyone know?

Thanks, you three. I appreciate everything that you told me.

Hello, players of The Harbinger. I've very recently started playing SWTOR, and am still searching for a very strong, populated, and active server to play on for the duration of my time with the game. I have heard from multiple sources that this is the most populated of all the SWTOR servers, but my question to you is as follows: From your experience on The Harbinger, whether it be from outright gameplay, data you've gathered, or online sources, does the Empire or the Republic have more players on The Harbinger? Thanks a lot, and I look forward to reading any feedback that you can give me.
