Or, could it even be that blizzard, in their infinite marketing genius, has their community managers trolling these forums to make sure their game is mentioned in almost every thread?

Viral marketing ftw?
This thread is titled "How are people bored already" if you want a respec cost thread search for one. Theres a few out there. No need to take up posts on a different topic.

2) I don`t like the fact they copied WOW every thing they have copied is inferior the small amount of things they changed like crafting and space combat and companions I think ruined game-play. The use of speech and illusion of choice only make the grind more drawn out and frustrating and destroys any replay value due to the same leveling areas being required to be done in the same order each time WOW give you a choice I have leveled just tanking Dungeons thx the the LFG tool.

SWTOR turned out to be utter rubbish little more than another failed WOW clone which will no manage to get the average gamer to subscribe a month is more than enough of this crap. I found the game boring from the start and disappointing in the middle and dead at the end. This game will fail due to no game-play innovation and lack of polish.

If you look at it like a WoW clone it's not as good as WoW. But if you look at it like SWTOR it's doing great.

People really need to stop coming from WoW and expecting just a better WoW with lightsabers (Not you necesarilly just didnt feel the need to post again)

Quite a lot of MMO players focus on one character. This game seems to be designed around 'having' to play multiple characters to stay engaged, which isn't going to sit well with many long-time MMO players. Alts were typically something only to do when you were bored. Now, its the main game design feature it seems.

We were expecting something other than WoW, but instead we get a lesser variant of WoW.

Once a week the throne (in an all Vs all PvP area) becomes vunerable and anyone can click with say a 5 minute timer to claim it.

What benefits you would get from the position Ill leave to the imagination, but the thought of GvG and internal political subterfuge whets the appetite.
That wouldn't work in SWTOR because of the story arches revolving around said throne or thrones.

Maybe if they had some type of neutral stronghold in PVP areas that people or guilds could fight over.

Once again comparing it strictly to WoW. I've seen nothing wrong so far. And to the people complaining about there not being enough endgame content.

The game took like 4-5 years to fill the game to what it is now. Developing content takes a while give them like a month. (or you know the 17th when there is literally an expansion coming out.)

Most of my guild are levelling alts as we don't see the point in nightmare modes atm while the bug which causes most bosses to drop hardmode loot isn't fixed. Since we're all relatively geared in rakatta and have rank 60 pvp chars from premades in less than a month... raiding 3 nights a week, its not hard to imagine why we're bored

Just some ideas. People can have valid complaints, you may like it, but putting forward arguements against people who disagree with you just makes you look like a blinker fanboi of rather limited intellect.
you could say that about every single MMO ever made.
