@Dustious If you're going to nitpick, 2.5 x 500k = 1.25 million. So he was pretty much right on with his comment, maybe you should be the one breaking out the calculator ;)
Check again if you don't think every MMO loses subscribers after launch. If SWTOR is still losing subscribers at the end of the year, then perhaps everyone can point and laugh, however as it is right now, it's performing above expectations (though granted, not to what some had *hoped*)
