Less than HALF that. AT MOST.

 


 

Again -- provide SOMETHING to back up your claim.

 

Half the servers are more or less going to be deserted by transferring to the other half?

They didn't seem to feel the urgency to do that 1.5 years ago, when the sub number was being reported by tracking sites as 50K...

That's your "evidence"?

It never ceases to amaze me the cavalier way people throw numbers around with absolutely no source and treat them as fact.

So I started to walk into the water. I won't lie to you boys...I was terrified. But I pressed on, and as I made my way past the breakers, a strange calm came over me. I don't know if it was divine intervention or the kinship of all living things, but I tell you, Jerry, at that moment ... I was a marine biologist.

Then what is your best guess for SWG's current population? I see you criticizing everybody else's numbers so provide your own.

I won't hold my breath waiting...

I don't know what it is. I'm not privy to any sub numbers, just like you're not.

I, however, don't go around making wild claims about SWG's population. I have an educated guess, but that's about it. I certainly don't parrot it like it's fact.

I repeat:  They are encouraging HALF the servers to become COMPLETELY empty by offering FREE (a word that is anathema to SOE) transferrs OFF them.

This is something they weren't offering last year or the year before that.  So, then, isn't it logical to deduce that the game is doing FAR worse than it was then, and at the VERY minumum, has lost half it's subscribers at the very least, since basically half the servers are being abandoned?

To claim that subscriber rates have stayed stable with that happening is impossible to justify.  To claim that there are "moar subsribers than evah!" with that happening is just to expose yourself as a flat out liar.

If you're not willing to at least attempt an educated guess then maybe you shouldn't be commenting on mine.
