The thing is, yes some of the servers are low, but some are doing very well still. Sanctum of the Exalted, my server, seems very stable - at least on Empire side. Fleet is usually between 75-130 people, depending on the time. Lowest I think I saw was around 40, but that was at like 1 in the afternoon.

IMO, Bioware simply launched with waaay to many servers. They over estimated how many players they were going to get. They need to do a merge, but doing so would just cause more people to scream that the game is dying. Its a no win situation - no matter how they approach the issue of the low pop servers, they are going to get blasted by someone.

They got plenty of players to begin with. They just failed to retain them and now there's too many servers. But if they merge it'll be seen as the game failing so they're in a bit of a pickle on that front

I've recently been posting some screenshots of TOR's population, only to have them be continually deleted by the MMORPG.com staff. They're trying to cover-up the fact that this game is dying, even when hard evidence is being provided, by deleting any screenshots that showcase this game's true population. These three screenshots were deleted within minutes of being posted to the gallery.

Till few days ago i wouldnt know what to think of your post Nekrothing but after i started a thread in general discussion with title ( Give us something knew )  my response to a usual  way to nerdrage boys respond type stop grinning ,stop bitcing etc and after the well deserved response i gave him the staff  edited his message and DELETED MY response with the excuse of flaming....

If your accusations about your continual posting with pictures getting deleted by the MMMORPG staff are true - and i have no reason to believe otherwise- i can only comment their behavior as FASCISTIC and completely UNACEPTABLE and everyone can make hypothetic assumptions regaurding wether or not the sites are getting paid or not by various dev companies to spread a supposed good image of a well state fare for their products.

If something like that would be true MMORPG.COM could be considered completely UNRELIABLE.

How many of those very well servers are very well because the people that are still playing had to move there because everyone else left? I think the game started off with all servers being well off but now if it's just a few then ....yeah duh.

Start doing a head count for everyone on your sever that started the game on that server. Think you'll be big enough to admit what I bet you'll find?

Its no secret this site has its nose so far up EA's rear end that its sad.

Once upon a time I came here to get somewhat professional reviews. That time has come and gone. The reviews and previews are nothing more than lips to butt service now. Its not limited to EA, but it definatly feels that they push EA games overly hard, even their single player games.

All i can think about now is that article that was title "list of innovations in SWTOR" and in the actually article on almost every point it stated that "this isnt neccesarily innovative" . What a sad article that was.

please post screenies from every server so we have reason to believe its dying.

EDIT: and do it without Xfire

For those saying that I'm trolling: Would I have bothered subbing to this game if I didn't enjoy playing it? Would I have bothered getting a character to level 50? Would I have bothered making a Republic alt after getting a character to level 50?

Truth is, I enjoy the game. In fact, I'm still subbing and am very much looking forward to the 1.2 update. However, I can't (and neither can you) deny the fact that the population for this game is declining. I'm just sharing some of the pictures that I've taken throughout the course of my playthrough to showcase the fact that the population is in decline.

For those saying it's just a conspiracy theory: It's not a theory if it's true. The MMORPG.com staff has been deleting every single one of my pictures within minutes of them being uploaded. Not once, not twice, not three times, but on nearly twenty different occasions. They are very clearly trying to hide the fact that this game's population is degrading.

You had better be careful! 

MMORPG.com staff might downgrade your title!

Oh wait... too late   :DD

Maybe he should try an MMO?

I know off topic but can't help myself.

Just read your sig and all I can say is WOW and ummm WOW again.

Just keep that on the ready and paste it to every overly fanboy post you see.  It's priceless!!
