* Some Posters will move the goal Posts
* Some Posters will claim "heh told you so"
* Some Posters will say its nothing
* Some Posters wont reply as it will make them look stupid
* Some Posters will "predict" the end

I'd be more interested in seeing numbers on how many people are logging in and for how long. There can be 1.7 million subs but that doesn't mean that many people still log in much or ever.
Don't flame, I like this game. I'm just curious.
I survived the Patch From Hell (9/24/2013) but my subscription didn't.

So here's the article link you requested of me. Luckily I found it without too much trouble.

Let's see if your predicted response plays out.
Good will always triumph because Evil is lazy.

Talk about drama queens.
Don't you mean you couldn't?
Real Star Wars space combat please, not Star Wars Fox! Maybe some PvP and flight too?

I commented on this in another thread, but I also don't understand the obsession with EA stock reports. To me it's pretty simple - if the game is enjoyable, you keep playing. If it stops becoming fun, you stop playing. I couldn't care less what EA's quarterly results are.

Do these people base all their decisions this way? "Hey Bob, what do you want to drink? Coke or Pepsi." "Let me log onto CNN's financial pages and see which one has a higher stock price and had the best quarterly P/E ratio. Then I'll tell you what I'd like to drink."

True, i definitely am not going to embarrass myself again by posting in a thread like this.

Revan: The Wookiees?

Pretty much
No one hates Star Wars as much as "Star Wars fans"

I disagree. Players have a vested interest in their MMO succeeding or not succeeding. Player population trends and outlooks play a huge roll in the player experience. It's not shocking to find players interested in financial numbers.
