Dear APAC Community,

 

This is Scorpio,

For those of you who don’t know me I’m a Master Dar’Nala gamer. I also happen to host, commentate and stream SWTOR first and (currently) only eSport tournament – The R.A.W (Ranked APAC Warzone) Championships. This tournament has brought out the absolute best in the Master Dar’Nala community and so myself and my co-host EsKy (Resk/Fresk/Gresk/Dresk/Zersk/Sandee…seriously *** man) were DEVESTATED when we heard what was happening to our beloved servers.

 

We have spent the last few days talking about it and our disgust for what Bioware are doing to us has only grown stronger.

 

Eric Musco says a Unified APAC Server isn’t viable. That the numbers don’t add up. I’ve told him this is a lie and he is yet to come back and say otherwise. So we would like to prove it.

 

This isn’t going to be easy and it is going to rely on as many people as possible: from Gav Daragon, Dalborra and Master Dar’nala combined. But the one thing I’ve learnt from R.A.W is that the APAC Community are passionate, loyal and dedicated gamers.

 

Simply put, on Sunday 7th April 2013 (weekend after Easter) we are going to be streaming, all day, from DALBORRA.

 

This is an open invitation to EVERY PLAYER WHO WANTS A CONSOLIDATED APAC SERVER.

Before Sunday 7th, create a character on DALBORRA and level it to level 10. With double xp weekend this weekend PLUS double xp on the following Saturday, you can do it in absolutely no time at all. Republic or Imperial or both – it’s up to you.

 

From 5:00pm – 9:00pm AEST, the UNIFIED APAC COMMUNITY will be streamed LIVE from Dalborra.

 

This is your – our – opportunity to prove that we have the numbers to hold a population on a single server: but it will only work if everyone can come together on this.

 

I am going to put together a streaming itinerary – a list of activities, destinations, faction swaps and communications – for the four hour stint. This will include:

 

- Interviews with Guilds/Guildmasters from ALL Apac Servers

- PvP Tournaments on Outlaws Den

- Warzones with players from different servers

- Flashpoints with players from different servers

- Fleet Parties

- Faction:Wide Planet Treasure Hunts

- Cantina Crawls (it's exactly what you think it is)

 

I want to work with players/guilds from ALL Apac Servers to create this event and that is why I have created a singular thread on each of the server forums for this. I would like anyone and everyone to add their suggestions, contacts, guild names, player names etc. to these individual threads. I am going to do my best to pull everything together and put together the biggest event these servers have ever seen.

 

The purpose of this event is to change the current fate of our servers - HOWEVER - it is also an opportunity to enjoy this game as a single community, something almost all of us wanted and have been asking for, for so long.

 

I would ask everyone who is going to participate in this event to use this signature.

UPDATE

You’re a God send mate,

 

Thank you immensely for your efforts and we will support this as best we can.

If you need any help with the event I'll be glad to help.

I am very much looking forward to this and will be actively trying to get people to read this thread.

if you need any help with this from any reps id be more then happy to atleast show that us aussies can unite and have what is basicly a giant party.

 

you can get into contact with me on Keiga most days or failing that ask anyone from A Little Bit Gimp normaly they know where I am hiding. and no im not the GM of Gimp but I am the most vocal, kinda like a PR officer.

As one of the GM's from TA on Dalborra, we are in full support of this and will get as many of our members as possible behind it. We totally support retaining an APAC server and want as many people as possible to show BW that we don't want to be merged into US servers.

 

Keep up the good work.

 

APAC supports you!

Hi guys, thought I'd chime in. I'm from Gav Daragon and just thought I'd bring it to light that the recent news has rocked us as well. In saying that -- while I hope you guys succeed, quite a fair few of the GD community have resigned ourselves to our fates; quite a few of us are already actively looking for other places to go. We all still play though, but most of us would rather spend time trying to enjoy the time we have left playing on the character we have and like -- and the reluctance that many of us might have from joining you will still persist -- lack of legacy and "alt support" will stymie any desire to aid you. Our loyalty, first and foremost, is to each other. While you're right -- we are passionate and loyal. But our already fractured communities were further scattered by this news. I won't speak for the GD community at large -- but I can attempt to bring what you're doing to attention.

 

Keep up with us and try to sell the point yourselves on gav-daragon.enjin.com.

 

On a lighter note -- I don't suppose you guys will rename your domain name from zer0ping to 300ms? I'm awful. I know.
