((Feel free to skip to the bottom. Most of this is just me ranting about all the idiots. The whole point to this is actually AT the bottom. I apologize if I actually offend anyone. ))
Christ, will you people shut up about older games? About the 'Good old days'? I grew up playing RTS (Real-time Strategy) games such as Starcraft and Warcraft (Yes, up until a few years ago I was a 'If you don't like Blizzard Games, you suck' person. Obviously that's changed. I see people blaming Bioware. I see people blaming the players (Except themselves, because all they want is the 'Good old days'). Well guess what. Those days are gone, and they will likely never come back. People are complaining about the current Server Transfer when it's what most of you wanted. People want communities. It is DAMN hard to make good communities on nearly-dead servers. Unless you actually make games, you don't have ANYTHING to complain about. You want a game that YOU like? Go to college/university and make it. Or be like me, and play what I'm given.
Some of you are saying that you brought a lot of your friends over from other, older MMO's and how you still talk to them and play with them today. That's all fine and dandy, yeah. What about those who didn't have such great experiences? You only play with the people you know, and forget about all the new people. And yet, I've been playing Star Wars: The Old Republic for... Roughly three weeks, tops. I've made DOZENS of friends. Somebody needs help on a Heroic? I help them, even if I'm too high to get any benefit, or have already done the mission for the day. Most of you are no better than the 'I want it now!' people, or 'I don't wanna work for it!' people. You don't want to actually work on getting a community up. You just want to get to a server, and join one right away.
I lost topic in regards to my first paragraph. As I was saying there, Bioware did exactly what you wanted. They made it so servers could be full. Now people complain about queuing times, or lag because of all the new people. People complain that they can't get their name, or their legacy. Too bad. Use your imagination and make a new one. You don't have to be a role player to have a cool name. You don't have to be a hardcore PvPer to enjoy it.
All in all, the point is, everybody is to blame. It's Bioware's fault that some of us can't even play the game because there's either to many people, or to few. And it's our fault for constantly ************ and complaining to Bioware that they ****ed up. Groupfinders ruin games? No. It's the people who ruins games. Like someone in here said, it's OUR job to reach out to others, to build strong communities. Why should we expect other people to try and be friends with us, if we're not willing to put forth the same effort? I'm done my rant now. Again, sorry.
