Bioware, why are you forcing me into content I already did or content I don't enjoy?

It's simple as this, either you don't make an alt or you don't play this game at all because BioWare didn't force you to make an alt to begin with.

Yes, I could level trough PvP.However, the Warzones don't award enough EP to be able to keep up with pure questing-EP, especially after lvl 2x. Also I miss a lot of talents and abilities, which puts me really in a disadvantage against higher levels.

So could someone please tell me why i'm forced to play content I don't enjoy at all? Why is the content I enjoy (PvP, Class Quests (( and flash points)) ) not awarding the same EP as questing?
Go play a PVP-only game. Not a game based almost entirely around PVE. Play something like Lineage, or Aion, or Gunz: The Duel, or Warhammer Online. Don't come here and demand some kind of ganker's paradise PVP fest.

You're not forced to do anything. You chose a game that is heavily based on PVE and are complaining that it isn't heavily based on PVP.

I did. I still am on my 4th toon, actually. : )

I did my class quests on each planet, and sometimes I would do a space mission if I was very close to leveling. Other than that, it was all through PvP, on all 3 characters.

It does take longer, but if you like to PvP (and I absolutely love to), it's a far more enjoyable experience than repeating fetch quests.

My suggestion: Pick up Slicing if you want to do this, as you can "break even" most of the time while sending your companions on crew missions, and if they crit, you just made a bit of cash or items to sell. When running class quests, there are a LOT of areas w/ lockboxes to slice, and this is all basically free credits.

Just a tip for those who really want to avoid ANY PvE and still need credits for training abilities, etc.

Except GW2 doesn't even have a release date yet.

Did some BW and EA employees break into your house and hold you at gunpoint making you play? Otherwise I don't see how they forced you to do content. Last night I watched a move, no one showed up at my house and forced me into content.

If you don't like redoing content to level another toon ur playing the wrong game... Ah any game for that matter. Every game mmo or not, when you start something new... Thats exacty what you are doing starting something new and leveling all over again. Maybe you should try a sport in real life like tennis?

Oh wait thats the same thing over and over again.... Maybe basketballs? Oh wait thats the same thing over and over again... See where i'm going with this? Every 'game' real life or not is repetative. You either love it or you don't. Clearly you don't enjoy leveling so just stick to your 50 and enjoy the daily grind. Which funnily enough is repetative.

In addition, OP is not forced to level through questing. It is possible to level through PvP. It's not the most effective, but it can be done.
