Example: Server A could have 2000 people logging on for 5 minutes each spaced out throughout the course of a day. Server B server could have 500 people logged on at once for 4 hours at a time between 16:00 and 20:00 Those stats would show server B to have more people logged on simultaneously. SO during the initial levelling periods servers would be showing heavy or greater load on them as people consume the levlling content for hours at a time. As the server matures more people ding max level and players who don't roll alts are on for less each day. If they show anything tbh they show people play more when they are levelling then when they are lvl 50 which is what I would expect. Even if no one unsubs a decline in what these stats show is inevitable just given how people play.

Just because in game populations are lighter doesn't mean players are not elsewhere such as forums or simply playing on a lighter schedule. People have to realize that a certain portion of the population play the forums almost like a social game in itself. Semantics/social politicking is very entertaining for some people. Sure there are the trolls but also the serious types that have strong opinions and try to be heard.

How many retail stores in the Oceanic area are now selling copies? A couple hundred in April is a drop in the Ocean. You lose 200 but gain 400... Seems pretty healthy to me. The issue was the initial surge that every MMO has. They had too many servers to accomodate the surge and now that its plateaued off (and them opening Oceanic servers) servers are dying. Swifture was ALWAYS full... Now its ALWAYS dead... Why? because all those players went oceanic. Same with Ajunta Pall during the NA off peak time... Its a ghost town. So stop speculating and throw some hard facts or simply shut up. And no dont bother linking the site that has server load graphs and ****. Everyoen does it and then people like me simply cpy and paste the disclaimers on their FAQ's and destroy any credibility you have!

We went from most servers being heavy and quite a lot full to maybe one full at peak time and most light. My feeling from in game and how the forums are stalled is around 50% left and mostly 25% actually plays the game. Unless the guild summit and/or patch 1.2 shows great things, the game is going to continue bleeding subscriptions and it won't be that much better than WAR when GW2 launches.

Dude you must be playing in an alternate univers. Im in Australia +10GMT and during my deap time all the Oceanic servers are heavy or full, and i see about 7 NA which are standard and the rest light... During our offpeak time I see AT LEAST 3+ heavy and the rest jumping between standard and heavy throughout the day. Though there are those that remain standard/light.

Everyoen does it and then people like me simply cpy and paste the disclaimers on their FAQ's and destroy any credibility you have! There is no way the Oceanic playerbase has more then 200,000 and that is me being very generous. I'd say probably 50,000 at the most after the people who bought it previously. I dont' think you realize how people are having grouping issues and faced with 2 options, quit or re-roll/tough it out. Making your character on another server is not an option for so many since playing your character again is identical to a weak single player game. Bioware hasn't announced the games numbers, that's bad. Bioware shouts to the world and proclaims every achievement, so why aren't they saying "we got this". They're probably down to about 1.3m+ with a base of 100k~ from Oceanic.
Our lack of a proper LFD tool will black out the sun! Then we shall cancel our subs in the shade!
