U need PVP crosserver that's what we need

noob need to play vs noob and get better
and geared people vs geared people

1 server have NO ENOUGH PLAYER

BW WAKE THE F UP!

it's BRAKET the problem and yes the one i suggested is a lame division made by a person that is paying to play i am not paid to solve their problem i see the problem and i tell you 99% on this thread think the problem is gear when is not progression is GOOD is NATURAL and is FUN

playing vs people 10 times better is not but is not a GEAR problem because with equal gear a person with 2000hour pvp destroy a person with 10 hours PVP is a question of BRAKET NOT GEAR

Expertise scales far too well, sort your game out.
You will find it's because MMO's are not games where true PvPers go. True PvPers want equal playing ground, a.k.a e-sports, while MMO players need to grind to cover their lack of sportsmanship and skill.

New players should only have the option to roll Powertechs and Vanguards, then they wont notice the gear difference so much

Does it ever creep into your head that you might, in fact, suck at this game? Of course not, what am I thinking....

You do know sportsmanship also includes things like "following the rules", but you ask for an exception? Anything with the word "sport" in it means gear/equipment, TRAINING, COMMITMENT, and resources(credits) matter if you want to be competitive. If you are lacking in any of those you will not be competitive. YOU control all of it. It is not a game issue, its a player issue.

Your competitive fire burns as hot as a can of Coors Light. Check ya-self, and QFT....

Some of us just like the idea of building up a character and then running around killing other people w/ it.

Why is that so hard to fathom?

LOL. I stopped reading after this. This is the most lopsided game I have ever played (in terms of pvp) and I stared with DAoC in 2001. Sorry man you lost all credibility after the above statement.

zero work ethic
Stopped reading there. Blizzard has tried to do their best to make WoW less of a second job and have told the haters living Cartman-like in their mom's basement to stick it.

Games should be games, not work. It's not about having an entitlement complex, there's many ways they could balance warzones so that it's more about player ability and less about using grinded gear to prop-up your failings as a player, as you hit your one-button Logitech keyboard macro and roflstomp new players into the dust.

Look at GW2. Look at WoW's matchmaking system. There's plenty of examples. Bioware have to do things backwards though. If it's not a Legacy system that only encourages alt-levelling for people that play 24/7 (character xp perks and their associated Legacy and credit costs) and already have 8 x lvl 50's, it's something else. They persist in thumbing their noses at the majority of their playerbase, while they hand out free PvP kills and Legacy perks to the minority that have made TOR their job.

None of it makes sense to me at all.

There is so much Liberalist thinking in here. I need free stuff to survive, I want what they have without earning it. Everyone started with nothing, and everyone had to suffer through the gear gap. I suggest the game is fine and it is your lack of skill that is hurting you and would also suggest you play a different game.

BM/recruit "skill" versus full War Hero w/ augments = auto loss, even if the other guy is just facerolling his keyboard.

In similar vein to your suggestion I play another game, I suggest you get a clue. Oh wait, I don't care. You're the first person on my forum ignore list.
