No one needs to be fired over any of this and it most certainly is not the end of the world. Far too many people are getting taken in by forum trolls and misinformation spread by gaming sites about the patch today.

SWTOR may have some issues (random loading screens on fleet, ***?), but overall it is a very enjoyable game with very few major bugs.

Take some time to breath and clear your mind a bit of your rage, life will seem much more enjoyable when you do :-)
I'll agree that things like this take time to plan and that they may have been planning it for a while. However, why on earth would you announce it literally hours before the North American subs are up for renewal? Wouldn't it make more sense to announce this weeks ago or even at launch. My suspicion is that they did plan this but weren't planning on announcing it until later. Something like "To show our appreciation to everyone that payed for the first month, here is a founder title". With what happened today, I think they saw it as a damage control opportunity. Why else announce it with hours ticking down to re-sub?

Once again, the internet tinfoil hat squad is desperately fishing around for something to label as a 'conspiracy".

I like it. I initally had set up for one month, but changed to the six month plan. This IS the MMO I was looking for.

This is the first time then when I saw a 50+ page thread I actually went through it all rather than reading the first and last page.

$15 a month sure ain't worth it for this game

I would pay $5 just for forum access tho, this stuffs good.
