Pretty much that

to each their own, I suppose.

to me, personally, its not worth it if I'm not having fun right now. doesn't matter what awesome stuff is coming soon, I'll deal with it once its there. they still give a few weeks warning, which for me, is usually more then enough to decide if I wish to participate and prepare accordingly. /shrug

Honestly if you're not having fun and care about the future, you should just take a break and keep an eye on news incase you get enticed again.

Well explained. ikinai isn't alone in that feeling either, her sentiment is shared by myself and plenty that I know.

And I'm not so sure about the community. I know what you're saying, but I think this community is much more forgiving and understanding than the community we had at launch. Worst case, they tell us something didn't work and explain why and I assure you that the vast majority of this community would completely understand. They may not be happy, but they'd understand.

Don't know what the OP is talking about, plenty of people on The Shadowlands even during the morning EST. I get fast FP pops and the planets aren't empty.

Stagnation doesn't mean we're not having fun...it means the game is stagnating with a lack of new content. The 3 "tactical" flashpoints offered nothing challenging, nor very desirable, and even the most casual of players is sporting 180 gear these days. You don't have to hate the game or be bored to see the reality of the servers lately...the effect of months of no content of value is taking its toll.

So, the new content isn't your particular cup of tea.

It's still new content.

It gets to the point where some of these threads end up sounding like my kids during summer break.

"WE'RE BORED!!!!"

"Then go outside and play."

"NO, IT'S HOT."

"Then go for a swim."

"WE DID THAT ALREADY, WE'RE BORED!!!!"

"Then play some video games."

"NO, THOSE ARE STUPID AND WE BEAT THEM ALREADY."

"....go find something to do, or I'll have you picking up twigs and sorting them from smallest to largest for the next six hours."

"YAY VIDEO GAMES!!!!"

It was content that was unchallenging and fun to run through 3 times. That's what happens when it lacks any challenge and takes a step backwards in gear requirements.

I'm not your child. You must be a heck of a dad with that attitude though huh?
