Now, we have enough servers to handle the population, and their capacity has been increased to the point where there are no queues.

And NOW people are spinning it to make "DOOM!!!!" threads.

Hilarious.
Proof that oh so many of the forum posters are entitled, inconsolable brats.

The amount of utter lies that go around these forums is really astonishing.

And for petes sake all european servers are at least standard during pt. and us servers are no different.
uh, no it doesn't. Standard has a very large gap between min for standard and max for Standard. Right now Dreshdae Cantina is Standard, about 60 people on fleet. On Harbringer which is showing standard as well is showing 96 people, it doesn't show 200+ people on fleet till it hits Very Heavy. Someone posted in another thread screen shots of his Standard server during prime time hours, there were about 20 people in fleet, about 30 people on each of the planets.

They need to change the name of populations. Standard needs to change to light, Light needs to change to Nearly Empty, Heavy to Standard, Very Heavy to Heavy, create something between the current Very Heavy and Full, and then Full can stay at full.

First it was "Open more servers, I hate queues!!!!"

Now it's, "Merge the servers... I suck at being social/only play DPS so I think the game is dead!!!"


Just goes to show that people will QQ no matter which path you take. Open more servers, they cry it's dead. Don't open, they cry about queues.
Pro-Addon, but also Pro-regulation. Working to keep addons that do more harm than good out of the game.

OR they could just put the actual population figure.

I was one of those people asking Bioware not to open up more servers, I knew this would happen because they released the game during a holiday break.

The worst idea ever is to release a new MMO during a holiday break, guaranteed you will create way to many servers then what really is needed. During a holiday break it took 2 weeks or so for everything to settle down to normal playing, if they released the game during a non holiday break it would have only taken a few days for everything to settle down to normal because people have school and work to get back to right away.

Firkrann Crystal, also never makes is past "Standard" at peak hours. Doesn't Bioware want their servers to be close to full?
21 days left of play time. One more cancelled subscription due to Bioware encouraging kill trading on Ilum.

nah, to EAware, 10 trillion servers makes the game appear more successful even if they're all empty.
