Starsider was a hot bed of activeity today and I think the server transfers in the near future played a part in that.
I saw hundreds of people all day long and it had to be one of the most active days since the NGE was forced upon us.
I pvp'ed, ran instances and crafted special orders today.
Must say I had a very star-warsy day in my sandbox !!!
Now a forcast Citys will be over thrown and conquerd by those moving over and takening charge.
I know of two citys that new owner ship shall emerge.
Glorius!

Of course you have NO/ZERO/NADA screenshots to support your CLAIMS...
What a joke. We all know SWG is dead. We've all logged on for the past 3 years to look at the corpse.

LOL gotta love viral marketting.
Amazing how these stories that always pop up about "Hundreds of people everywhere" NEVER have any screen shots showing these people.
Whats even worse is that they say "hundreds of people" like it's an amazing accomplishment(well I guess it is for the NGE) when that was the norm back before the NGE.
Tried: LotR, CoH, AoC, WAR, Jumpgate Classic
Played: SWG, Guild Wars, WoW
Playing: Eve Online, Counter-strike
Loved: Star Wars Galaxies
Waiting for: Earthrise, Guild Wars 2, anything sandbox.
Jesus guys. Ever thought of the fact that he might just be excited to see a few more people playing on a server in a game that he enjoys? Did he ask/tell/beg you to sign back up or log back in? To me all it looked he did was express his enjoyment of having a few more people online to mix-up the politics of the game.

Which Final Fantasy Character Are You?
Final Fantasy 7
If it weren't a lie then that would be fine. However, several of us have gone back to the game on veteran trials and the game is DEAD JIM.
You seem surprised by this, I am in turn surprised at your apparent surprise.

WTF? How many posts on this website require a screenshot to support a claim of having fun? Seriously, you seem to have issues.

All it proves is those people love playing with themselves and imagining a populated game. Those of us that have gone back on trials have seen the empty servers.

Can you please supply a screenshot of the empty servers you encoutered on your trial. Just for your own safety of course, otherwise the cheeto brigade will own you hard sir.

"All it proves is those people love playing with themselves and imagining a populated game. Those of us that have gone back on trials have seen the empty servers."
The rest of us have...kinda...grown up...
I can't even type what I want to type because I get the warnings and all you donkies get to cry and moan and tell the rest of us what we should think and play and it is all BS....
3 years down the road and I am pretty sure, the majority of players are tired of the "Vets" same old song and dance.
Is there anyway I can get the "SWG Vets" forum posts blocked so when I do log on I don't even see them taking up space that can be used for constructive s**t?
You guys are DEATHLY boring...and tired...and played out....
(Awaiting the eventual "Can't talk bad about the "Vets" ban...)
That Guild Wars 2 login screen knocked up my wife. Must be the second coming!
Actually Starsider does have a very healthy community. Unfortunatly my old main is on Gorath. It's not a "from" server in the free transfer, and although nobody is going to move to Gorath because it's dead, my character is stuck there. Getting a free move to Starsider would have caused me to resub just because they have so many well organized RP events. Ahh well, all the better because SOE continues to shoot that game down with horrible descisions.

The same can be said of you rabid fanboys trying to say the game is doing great when in fact it isn't. We have the same right as you do to express our opinion on a game we once loved.
"The same can be said of you rabid fanboys ..."
That's kind of funny...
Go back and read my "SWG Vets" posts...

Is Starsider one of the transfer servers and has the free transfers started yet? If so then its possible the OP has seen more activity on his server recently. If not....shenanigans.
Edit: Just checked and the free transfers don't take place until 13 Jan. The OP's statement looks a little dubious now. Though, to be fair, maybe people are checking out the server or have reactivated inactive characters in anticpation of more people coming to the server in the near future.
Is a man not entitled to the herp of his derp?
Remember, I live in a world where juggalos and yugioh players are real things.
It's no secret the game isn't doing well but that doesn't mean it's the end of SWG because all Lucas Arts and SOE have to do is be smart............ shit it's the end of SWG
Right, what do you even bother, i mean ?!?!?!?
Starwars Galaxies, An Empier Diveded, That's what it says on my box anyway.
Define "dead".

Issues? Dude is telling all of us a lie and I ask for photos to support his claims and I have the issue?
The real issue is in the fact that you people need to come to this site and lie to all of us about populations so we waste our money subscribing for a month to a dead game.

Define "dead".
"Dead" in the terms I am using it means that you can walk on Bloofin for an hour and not witness another human player. "Dead" means that 10,000 people play over 20+ servers.
By the way everyone, free transfers haven't even happened yet so the OP is simply telling everyone a lie. What a joke defending this nonsense.
Tecmo Bowl.
I don't have to prove any thing just use you free usage and log on lazy complainers.
Stay in the whiners section please you post more here than there.

actually starsider is quite alive, and has a very healthy population. There are some servers which indeed are packed, while others may be dead.
We are allowed to post anywhere we want to and we can post here as much as we want as long as we discuss the CURRENT game, which we are.
You don't have to prove anything? Of course not, you can't. The free transfers haven't even taken place yet so we know you are lying. You were caught because you didn't bother to confirm when the transfers even went active... Good stuff and a BAD attempt at viral marketing.
Tecmo Bowl.
I predict 2009 isn't going to start with a bang for SWG, especially as the lead designers/producers answer to solving low populations was to spinelessly expect the paying customers to do the dirty work for them in the form of free character transfers.
But hey that's the thing about SWG, if you're on a populated server you can afford to wear your rose tinted glasses and pretend everything is swell. But unfortunately there are several veterans who don't share your enthusiasm especially the ones who have been told that their home server is a transfer and not destination server.
WTF? How many posts on this website require a screenshot to support a claim of having fun? Seriously, you seem to have issues.
NO! Fun in SWG is impossible. If you encounter more than 3 people in your daily gaming experience, you are required to provide a screenshot, or else you are lying. These are the rules of the MMORPG.com SWG boards.
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.
