The fact is, nearly every aspect of this game that has been a failure was something the community complained about the from the start. BW/EA refuses to listen to the community until it is too late ON EVERY OCCASION. And, they will do the same thing again until their population halves and they will listen to the advice of the community from months previous.

Everyone is worrying about the community on this new server....nay-sayers...instead of poo-pooing the inevitable transfer, how about we step up and make a community that rivals that of fatman. Even fatman started with zero population at one time and zero community...

Now if in a few months, when the 6-months and year subscribers run out and/if then our population blows, we can whine and ***** to our little heart's content. By then, anyway, I think we will know if BW was able to revive this game and if it is still worth wasting time playing.

I too got lag on the 300 person Fleet and I have an absolute beast of a machine (I7 2700k @ 4.5, 8 GB GSkill, SLI GTX 580s, Intel 510 SSD (Raid)) ... Thing is, Fatman has the names I have always gone under. The transfer to PotF resulted in me losing both the names I've used since Ultima Online. So ya, looks like I'll be finishing up my toons on Fatman and making them my mains while leaving my (2) level 50's behind.

See you on Fatman!
Were you playing on your old server before the transfer? No? Then you don't really count anyway. There were still more than enough active players on PvP East servers to make a thriving population elsewhere.

Seriously, 30 minute queues aren't worth being on any server. I'd rather be on P5 then sitting in a queue for 30 minutes just because I had a guy on Fatman.

Some people just lucked out, such is life. Everyone will be on an active server when this is done. All servers in NA that were loaded up yesterday had minimum loads of 'Heavy" in prime time.

It appears that, for the most part, Bioware is doing this right.

Here's a simple solution for those who made alts on Fatman and their origin servers went to P5.

Bioware just needs to do this

Enable Fatman ---> Prophecy of the Five.

That way people who are tired of Fatman or have original characters on servers that can transfer to P5 can also move their rerolls to P5 and be happy.

Unfortunately they picked a horrible server to be the 2nd East PVP Server.

Jesus. Doom and gloom. Sky is falling. When will this end?
Server transfers are a good thing. Accept it, negative Nancy. Happiness awaits.

The negativity on these forums is pathetic. Unsub and go. Let those of us that actually enjoy the game, enjoy it without having to wade through pages of griping about pessimistic speculation.

Maybe we don't want them.

This is true. And, to the idea that 'I'd rather not have queue's' - look, we had waiting at launch.. then, pops fizzled.. just like it will again once the transfer excitement lifts. then, you will wish you were on the server with where you had to wait. because at that point, fatman will be strong and we will all go back to the alts we rolled there. because we all know it is at worst our backup plan... and likely considering just staying there. I mean, our legacies are split up anyway (since the legacy is what BW decided to push as its big added content).
