I was smart though and rolled on a PvE server where the imbalance is already considered to be not as bad. I can't imagine how bad it'd be on a PvP server.

My first two characters were Republic side, and that's the side that I really like playing but it seems that
so many people want to play Imperial that I couldn't find anybody I know to play with so I gave up and went Imperial too maybe join this Kindread guild and meet some folks. I find it difficult to meet people in games anymore, guilds usually just wind up being chat rooms and even that's useless when you dont find anything to chat about.
Your population ratio is pretty much spot on, but the flip side to the bigger population is a way higher percentage of the Imperial players are dickwads compared to the Republic; it's Barrens chat everywhere you go; it's harder to find groups cuz there's so many folks wanting to do the same stuff. Pain in the ass.
Wish they had server transfers so I could find some Republic players to play with and not have to start from scratch... Really boring doing 30 levels of the exact same story lines yet again. RIFT had a period when it started where you could switch severs for free every few days until you found a server to settle on. That'd be so handy right now.
