250 people on the republic fleet on Dalborra last night, it was laggy just trying to run around, so I'll let you have some of the aussies back.

We raided on JJT the night before server transfers kicked in. As we left KP there was 16 on the fleet. 8 of those were us. Pretty sure we saw tumble weeds.

Dalborra topped 300 on fleet the other night.

JJT is not going to be much fun now.

So you guys need more servers and we need less.

Nah, server population for the OZ servers is perfect. Don't change a thing. There is a little wait time during peak times, but the rest of the time the load is spot on. Its nothing like the wait time during the first days of the US launch. 10-15 mins max.

You need a little full server peak time action to balance out the offpeak times.

Here's a suggestion, play on an Aussie server if it means so much to you when you play at time like 2-5am PST.

You probably wont because you want the lower ping?

That's why we transferred over

We actually seriously considered this, but yes, 250-300ms ping isn't pleasing. None of us think that you shouldn't have been given your own servers, it's just that Bioware handled this in such a half-assed way. They really should have had some sort of plan on what to do with us leftovers from the Aussie exodus.

Going to show some support to this thread, i am on JJT and it took a major hit when the Aussie's left. I'm hoping Bioware sees this issue and when server transfers happen ours is one of the destinations for people to come. It was a great server before and still decent, its just a little disheartening to see the server population split in half all of a sudden..

They've intended to have transfers for everyone else once the AP players were transfered to Oceana servers so they would know where the remaining players were at, but they had to transfer them before they could transfer anyone else. To do it any other way would have been poor planning on their part.

Yes, but their plan is "summer" sometime, which could mean September for all we know. In the mean time, there are many of us who have to live on these gutted servers.
