Ilum is a joke. Lvl 11 there last night, repub, character of a imp's 50 second account, killing it for valor and daily / weekly. Not only that it is clear that he had a 3rd party program because I would see it at the respawn point, then disappear, then the location via chat, then respawn. Over, and over, and over.

So....win trading is ok. Rolling low levels, sneaking them through the zone, camp them, finish dailies, reap rewards.

Oh...population imbalance is a close second. I can over look that part but until you fix the freaking kill trading or put diminishing returns on valor out in Ilum you can kill the pvp player base goodbye.

Probably only 1% but still.
I view both of these as player-created issues, not developer ones.

The kill trading on Ilum stems from players being too lazy and stubborn to do their actual task. BioWare has given a reasonable missions for players to complete, but the players choose to stand and let someone kill them rather than actually fighting. The solution is for players and the community as a whole to simply knock it the hell off.

Faction imbalance comes from players either flocking to the shiny attacks or what they perceive as the more populated faction. Again, BioWare has done nothing wrong. There isn't anything wrong with either faction, but it just worked out that more players wanted to play on the Empire side. If you want to play on the Republic side, then do it. It's another thing that requires actual effort from the community rather than all of us just throwing our hands in the air, giving up, and making Sorcerers and Powertechs.

They say things like "currently" "to date" and "in little over one month" when talking about these figures. 13 Dec to 31 Dec doesn't constitute a little over one month.
it wont matter the poster you quoted is not interested in facts , just his/her own agenda.

Even if that is the case the link I provided will at least allow others not to be fooled.

If there are so many players can someone explain why the servers are so empty?

Because everyone complained about there not being enough servers during beta and at launch, so BioWare made more. It turns out that the players were asking for more than they actually needed and now there are many light population servers.

Which servers are these, if you answer "all of them" I really can't help you since I will have no idea what you're talking about.

Indeed, even EU has one or two of those, the rest are standard, heavy, very heave or full atm. Heavy making up the largest part.
