Im sure there will be some that roll on an empty pvp server and transfer to Fatman or whatever so they can level without getting ganked and then gank everyone leveling on their new server.

If this game is so great then why do so many people that love the game spend all their time in the forums?

I did not say anything about people resubbing. I said new players who have never played the game before. So to counter my you talk about people resubbing> Even with them they will be allowed transfers so again its no problem. Also who are these people that confired they are resubbing? How did you hear about these people resubbing. Any link?

The proof is the server merges (oops transfers) that they just did. If new people were comming into the game then they wouldnt have too merge them all into 1 or 2 servers. From how you guys make it sound just as many people are buying the game as there are quitting but somehow the population is dropping so fast they have to do transfers. Doesnt make sense does it. I do give bioware or SWTOR credit when they deserve it so its not all negetive just most and the reason why is most of the things they do or dont do is wrong.

Or maybe there's more people that leave than new people, population still decreases BUT there's still new people and seeing all thoses servers might be confusing for them.
