On internet gaming forums? Seems like a sound financial practice
I find your over-inflated sense of self worth disturbing.

Hmm, I predict this thread will have some or all of the following:

1) References to subscription numbers dropping or not-dropping. Arguments for and against ,and arguments about how accurate the '1.7 million' is.
2) People will bring up a lot of facts and statements that aren't really salient to Fiscal Year results
3) People will talk about how they're looking forward to GW2/Tera/D3
4) People will talk about how bad/awesome GW2/Tera/D3 will be.
5) Someone will say 'D3 isn't a MMO'! To which someone will respond "Neither is SWTOR!"
6)Lots of comments about how a server is dying, and how when they logged in there were -4 people in Fleet
7)Someone will say "we need transfers now!"
8) Someone will say "They're not ready yet!"
9) Someone will say "Yes they are, look at Australian transfers!"
10) Someone will say "Forget transfers, we need mergers!"

I think that probably covers most of it...

Nice theory, if it weren't for the fact that the 1 month free subscription was announced and added to accounts AFTER the fiscal quarter...

Going be fun.
Relabeling future patches as Expansions, just like EA Louse said a year ago. Who got the last laugh?

no you wont . we will see limited free transfers. in early summer. period.

limited. remember that fact limited. it wont be "open choice go pick new server" it will be limited to mostly repopulating servers and moving people from low pop, if your server is healthy and full of players dont expect transfers to be free to you. soon after there will be paid transfers available to all. just like in most every other mmorpg in existence.

early summer.
