Also, I find it hard to believe that 1.7 million people were all online. That would mean every single subscriber was on at the same time.
i do not thingwe ever have all 1.7 mil on , we more likely seeing 20-40% of that at peak times daily. due to poeple working,school,traveling, doing other off line things.

now i'm on nearly daily wiht my GF so this cuts down my off-line time since we both play. but that not the rule but the exception.

You mean, a brief on how you hate the game and want it to fail? I think everyone knows by now how much you loathe the game, I'm a little curious as to why you are still here every day.

I can picture him/her drawing graphics on mm paper, searching the web for unknown bloggers with negative views of TOR, making forum alts, extrapolating and concocting new way to slag off the game.
I think he/she is a little... insane?
Gotta be. Either that, or it's his job

Take note of the Population change column. Significantly more +x.xx than -x.xx
Just looked. The average loss per server from last week is -.0732. The total loss across all servers seems to be about 4.6 percent. (That's actually better than I would have thought.)

I personally hope Bioware throws in a few quick fixes (new WZ, do something fun with Ilum, some higher and harder to get rewards in PVE/PVP, etc.) for March. Something needs to be done fast. People don't usually return to MMOs they've left, and those who don't never seem to stay as long the second time around.

Weird because myself and few friends went back to WOW, EQ2 and LOTRO several times for different lengths of time.
Of course, it's my personal experience so I am not going to extrapolate it into some sort of cosmic law, the same way you did there
But hey, you're the boss!

PS removing that signature might help with getting people to take you seriously, otherwise they might think you are trolling

The site you quoted isn't really based on population, it's based on server status.

It is reasonable to assume that servers would have been less active last week do to holidays.

That would account for the influx.

10 ÷ 1.7m = .0000058% ftw.
Can we please just have our pre-KotFE SWTOR MMORPG back?
