Bioware decides to make SWTOR free to play...

Agreed. I've been saying this forever.

simple, they consolidate threads so they can find the information easy when they want feed back and when they want to see what we have to say, no need to consolidate F2P or the world is ending threads as there is nothing of value here,

They try not to give anything but generic infomation so it wont come back and bite them later on. They already said they are looking into F2P, not that they were actually planning on doing it but that they have atleast looked into it. Thats so if they do go F2P they dont have to admit the game is a failure and can say that other games are doing F2P so to stay competitive they needed too.

They could at least pretend to actually moderate it for us an not allow endless duplicate threads.

maybe its a social experiment, to see how many threads one troll can create before they get tired and have to sleep

I understand where you coming from, but Bioware cannot stand up to Ea, because EA owns them, EA paid 890 million dollars to purchase Bioware, the fact is there no longer is a Bioware, only in name thats it, which is sad because I was a bioware fan.

Last company that has such silence, was SOE, then we got the CU later followed by the NGE, not saying that going to happen here. Turbibine went silent then the news they were bought by Warner Brothers came out, all I am saying here in my years of mmo play when companies go silent for a long time big changes seem to happen

I think after the investor meeting this week, and they decide who is doing what, I hope they come out and talk to us a bit.
I guess time will tell.

I knew it was November, I just couldn't remember the date. Ah well, thanks for the correction! Let the crazy talk resume.

It just me or is there a lack of mods on the forums today?

Visit the Bethesda community forums and watch how strictly they monitor the thread works. They have those animals trained now. It was madness during the New Vegas pre-production era.

it's well known that the majority of layoffs where from the community team ie moderators and such.

There is also a report from a German commuinty mod who said that the development team wasn't affected by the layoffs.
