Poll: Is Vanguard going to kill any chance of getting pre-CU SWG back?

I've been thinking allot about pre-CU and Vanguard and I've come to the conclusion that it's actually not in pre-CU's best interest to buy and play Vanguard.  I know this is probably not what you want to hear but just hear me out.



We have to realize that WE are the players that left SWG because of the CU and NGE.  Its because of US that SWG has failed since WE are the people that CANCELED our accounts leaving SOE with less then 10k players.  Further more most of us went on to play WOW (myself included) at least for a month after the fiasco with SWG.  Therefore more of us then we would like to admit have helped WOW reach its subscriber high.  Now if we look at SOE as a company then we have to realize that they don't care about us but they do care about our subscriptions.  Keeping this in mind it's easy to see then that to them it makes no difference if we play SWG, EQ2 or Vanguard, as long as they get our money back.  Vanguard has been marketed as the "new home for all SWG pre-cu veterans" since I first heard about beta 1.  I would not put it past Sony to have inflated that statement if they didn't make it up altogether (think about allwantforxmasisapsp.com). 



So I ask for you, is playing vanguard helping us or hurting us?



*******Edit:



I would like to point out that I am not looking for an argument, I was just wondering if I am the only one who thinks that SOE might be trying to use Vanguard as a way to get rid of it's SWG image.  I'm seriously interested in the opinion of anyone who might have thought about this too.

    Just stop already.



    SWG will be a memory inside of 1 to 2 years.



    The socalled next generation of mmo games released in the next 1 to 2 years will absolutley kill SWG.Just stop hoping that SOE will listen.They have not listened yet anf they will not in the future nor do they care about petitions.



    Just stop and find another game to play.

    What is your physical limit?

    After three and a half years of being a BH and at one point BH Pistoleer I had to throw in the towl.  SWG will never go back.  SOE will shut down SWG before they bring it back. I hate to say this but SWG will never be what it was.  Sooner or later sombody like WoW or age of conan will eat the last of the players.  WoW consumed me after my friends switched to it.  I am sorry but I follow my crowd.

    Vanguard is a fun game. Much more difficult than WoW, awesome graphics, in depth game play and the sandbox MMO type feel that SWG had pre-cu. As far as pvp goes I will continue to play SWG because I think PvP in that game is far better than any MMO I have tried up to this point. MMO's I am comparing it to are WoW, CoH/CoV, Matrix Online. Haven't had a chance to pvp much in Vanguard but for me I just like the flow of the pvp in SWG. It is fast paced and requires good team work. The rest of the game is probably lacking but I don't really care since all I do in SWG is pvp and in my opinion when there are people online SWG is a pvpers paradise. Flame away beeyatches!

    It wasn't Vanguard that killed any chance of a pre CU server. SoE gets the credit for that all to themselves.
