As you can see by the total whining about the uneven sides exploit, not too many people here have the skill or know how anymore to over come uneven odds. Makes me sad to see so many people with emotional issues regarding video game death I wonder if they were part of the zerg that got taken out by single groups in other games and just never got the counseling they needed to get over it.
I actually think unbalanced factions is a real issue, because it results in a lot of issues that have absolutely nothing to do with player skill. That said, there are ways to mitigate population imbalances that Bioware choose to ignore in favor of turning world pvp into another warzone.

While a lot of these reasons may be a valid excuse for leaving a game (namely joining into a losing game late, though I still stay and do what I can) I think anyone that says I pay $15 so I should be able to do anything an everything I want is pretty sad.

Your actions have a DIRECT impact on others games who are paying the same amount. So stop ruining it.

No one tells people who farm the full timer instead of winning and getting it over with to stop ruining games for other players, so how dare anyone single out quitters? Medal farmers are much worse and much more common.

Well i agree with you an some points.

I usually only leave after ic what my team can do , i got horrible geared teams that won matches anyway cause they knew how to play.

I cant stand noobs , but i dont mind under gear , they are doing what they can , and doing it right.
The Lord said: "QQ enough and thou shall receive it."
The followers said: "I shall QQ my lord, i shall QQ."
And since then , not a single day passed without the QQs being heard.

Because I pay my $15 a month, I should be able to do anything and everything I want, within the restrictions of the game's mechanics and the ToS. I don't understand why this is such a despised concept. It's Bioware's job to make sure pvp is balanced and fun enough to warrant my $15 a month, I don't owe anybody anything just because we happen to be playing the same game at the same time.

Fact , and the best part of it is , while you can punish leavers or even afkrs , there will never be a punishment for medal farming.Since you are fighting , just not to win.

When people get sick of getting mercilessly farmed the full timer (and if you guys think it's bad now, wait until they penalize quitters!) they'll stop queuing. Queue times will get longer, the people doing the farming will complain, and the formerly farmed will giggle.

Not that Bioware will do anything about it. Ilum's about dead for any sort of world pvp for the exact same reason, and they actually have the audacity to publicly state that Ilum is popular and enjoyable.

I don't believe that you don't understand why people would get annoyed at you. You don't sound slow.

If you do anything that effects my game negatively, I'm not going to be happy. I don't care how much you pay or if it's free.

If the PvP is so bad, how about you stop queuing? Obviously if you stay in some games but not others the PvP must be balanced and fun enough.. when you side has the advantage. Right?

Common decency is a lost concept. At least I know I was raised right.

While I do get annoyed in pvp and have my own opinions on what would make it better, I have a hard time being too invested in the outcome one way or the other because I didn't come into the game expecting to like the pvp. I also didn't expect to still be playing after the first month. So I'm fine with whatever.

Got a couple good MMO possibilities on the horizon and if those don't work out, I can always take a break. I play too damn much anyway.
