There are actually a few heavy servers right now though. And also, wait for prime time, quite a few will be full and some others very heavy.

Also, my server (EU) had queue today for the first time in weeks, so the EU servers are still growing every day.

Please don't turn this thread into a flamewar / swearing and get it closed down. BioWare needs to respond to it's dwindling community..

Oh THIS again. I'm so glad someone thought it was so pressing to post about this. Again. If the population is so light, why will this thread be on page 5 in about 10 minutes from the press of so many people chatting on the forums? Or of it somehow keeps floating, where do the thousands of views come from?
If I agreed with you we'd both be wrong.

If it goes to page 5, then so be it? I'm not concerned about where it ends up in 10 minutes, but considering there's over 3 pages of responses in 10 minutes.. I'd say I'm not alone in my concerns. Troll another thread, sir.

That's MY point, if you would stop throwing insults around long enough to think. Light population = light forums. Heavy pop = Heavy forums.

You can search level ranges.

/who 1-20 -- shows 100 results?

do this:

/who 1-10 -- 40 results
/who 11-20 -- 71 results

You can break down an entire faction's current online population this way by using small enough brackets. Also works for analyzing the number of level 50s:

/who 50 assassin
/who 50 juggernaut

etc.

Although in this specific case, you can't really get around the 100 result limit.

Your delusional its not dwindling, if you read my post above. About a week and a half after the game was released they raised the server population caps to deal with the queues. So a heavy server would probably become a standard server etc.

And last night at around 8pm pacific every server on the westcoast was heavy to very heavy with only a few standard and no light.

Your commenting on the server population during the middle of the day when everyone is at work, what do yoou expect? Not to mention, right now there isnt a single server on the west coast that is light , every single one is standard or heavy.

and its dinner time on the east coast i guarantee alot of those servers will change to standard in the coming hours.

Every server on the list a few weeks ago was high-heavy-full and now they're all standard / light? It gives an awful impression of the game to new-comers.. when can we expect server merges for the outrageous amount of servers?
Initial rush is over, and bioware removed the limitations.
Also school has started and people are busy with the new year.

It's not like there is anything else to play!
