(In case it gets deleted, it just a guy who made a short post that he's leaving the game, he thanks EA and says he hopes the game would be around in a couple of years, and then rates certain parts of the game with an out of 10 score, with a total score of 4/10)
Check out the backlash in the replies for yourself. He's being called a troll simply because he gave the game a low score. You will see this on pretty much any thread that criticizes the game.
The funny thing is, if you be honest with your opinion and critizise the game and get a load of nasty comments from the Bio drone defenders, you're the one who's probably going to get banned or given an infraction for "baiting, starting arguments to get a reaction" etc and everyone else will get away with it.
So for anyone who comes on here, just a warning to you, avoid the official forums.
Comments
Same old same old. It seems that the only thing that has changed in the 9 months since I last played is Andryah's avatar.
Staying away from official forums is always good advice.
People invest too much on the swtor forums. Its pointless other than reporting bugs.
There are too many fan bois, that recommending something is pointless.
Swtor can now take a shit, and call the turd gold, and the fan bois will wipe their faces all over it. Not saying they are producing such terrible content, but the game has the fans it wants with a cash shop, and thus their future of the game wont be so much directed by the fans with feedback as some may believe.
Write bad things that are done to you in sand, but write the good things that happen to you on a piece of marble
Except that the person is clearly a troll.
Masquerading the post as polite and then giving a 4/10 for a game that the people viewing the forums actually like. What response did they think they were going to get? They got exactly the response they wanted.
There was nothing constructive in the post and no reason to post it other than attention seeking by being a troll. Lets call a spade a spade shall we.
Oh and I don't like or play SWTOR, so you can disregard your Biodrone theory.
basically every forum sais "DONT DO GOOD BYE POSTS!" if you can't read, why do you wanna write?
something i never understood ^^
basically what you do there is to start a post, you will actually not read, since you are leaving, got it?
that is pure baiting .
not knowing the rules doesn't save you from consequences.
"Effort: 1 / Art: 1"
and you wanna sell us he ain't a troll? sure it's not you raging about your ban you got for a reason, mr 4 posts?
"I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up! Not me!"
Don't speak that Name. Ever.
(....Kill it... kill it QUICKLY Mr. Frodo...)
That there is one MMO Forums I am glad I don't post on. Completely programmed for "Propaganda". A forum is useless without the "Good, Bad, AND the Ugly" in opinions and comments. The SWTOR forums exist as nothing more than another marketing tool, not as a tool for meaningful communication. (as are some other official forums)
EA games has always been a failure I mean look what they did to the original Command & Conquer series they completely took games which I believe were designed by West Wood, and ruined them, they take SWTOR which could have been a great game and ruined it with lack of much content and customization, even as F2P I have went back many times getting emails saying there has been an update or something and the game was not worth playing no major improvements that I like.
I like Star Wars, but I can't seem to get myself into SWTOR no matter how many times I tried it the game just lacks so much content and to me makes it not playable my advise is to avoid this game for sure just wait for a new MMO to come out next year, even Final Fantasy XIV is better than SWTOR of course its a matter of opinion but at least in FFXIV I can freely customize now, and with the new patches will be able to freely customize more in SWTOR I can't.
Even Rift has better customization.
Actually I thought the responses quite mild compared to what I'm used to seeing on most game boards, or would likely see here.
Especially given the rather pathetic trolling nature of the OP and the OP's clear history on those boards.
The pathetically passive-agressive attempt to cover their arse aside, what possibly point is there to just posting a bunch of number scores? I could maybe see it if they said "I think the art deserves a score of 1 and here's why...", it still wouldn't be the appropriate place for it but at least there'd be some meat on those bones. As it is, it's a skeleton of a troll that got some mild disdain in response.
Stop the presses, I guess.
Honestly, if that's what you think constitutes a nasty thread I can't imagine you've spent much time around MMO forums.
Pretty much this.
Just read his "goodbye" and it's pretty passive/aggressive.
One just has to love the gaming community sometimes, it's like "Kingdom of the Lost Boys".

Well, the OP started an absolute clear Troll-Thread and there were some harsh (but not really dirty) reposts. This would be just the same, if you would post something in the GW2, Tera, TSW, etc... Forums.
I will never understand, why so many gamers tend to go to forums of games they dont like, just to piss off some other people. People in book forums wont do this, even people in movie forums dont do this as often as gamers do.
P.S. ...and yes, this here is a troll-thread as well. Maybe even by the same person.
Hodor!
Man are you naive or what?
If you are a game dev company , and someone give a bad crtitc on your forum, where everyone can read it (also potential new players) , YOU DELETE IT .
MMO gamers are a bunch of haters and behave in the internet like assholes. There is no point in a discussion, why they don't like something, its wasted time.
Step in the arena and break the wall down
What?!?
You mean it's not normal, healthy , mature behavior to bash a video game you don't play for over two years?
Its not normal, healthy , mature behavior to hate a video game and post lies and misinformation about it for over two years?
Troll is troll.
Rating the ART in the game a 1 is just...lol well. Yeah.
Some of the planets, backgrounds, SCALE (ie it's to scale) are just awesome. Am I saying 10? No, of course not. But a 1 is just someone screaming for more attention.
So... what OP is saying is, that there are stiupid people, fanboys, trolls and haters on the official internet forums of AAA Star Wars MMORPG, made and run by EA(oware)??
naaaah, that's impossible...
Makes me wonder why I would even want to go to a forum of a game that I dislike and post about how much I dislike it?
Too much spare time?
No life?
Troll?
Attention whore?
/thread
welcome two teh interwebz
LFD tools are great for cramming people into content, but quality > quantity.
I am, usually on the sandbox .. more "hardcore" side of things, but I also do just want to have fun. So lighten up already
Yea, no surprise there.
They aren't interested in any feedback (legit or otherwise)
Everyone keeps buying their virtual crap, so why would they change anything?
While I don't support trolling in the least (trolls need to be heavily punished each and every time) I don't think that thread was trolling.
Very valid points and I'll add in another. Ever since beta when companions got shifted around with abilties and weapons, even now, even today, Qyzen Fess (as an example) has aim with a techblade.
I know it sounds kinda pointless but until they re-work that single issue I won't even consider going back to that game. Nope. Done.

I'm sure you have bought something in your life that some people would think is crap, but I bet people didn't spend over two years of their life bashing your crap or posting misinformation and lies about your crap.
Yes why would they change? Over a million players a month. Making a profit. Still releasing content every 4-6 weeks.
The game is currently healthy and doing good the same 5-10 poster bashing it on every thread here won't change that. A word of advice if you don't like the game and think it's crap focus your energy on something you do like.
Apples and oranges. "People" here isn't the same as a person. People been debating books that have been around for thousands of years.
