The real problem is that Revan became widely accessible within 4 months even for F2P players. Meta needs to change to flip the table, people shouldn't be able to have the latest high end character all at once. And shard chats made it even worse - if no one really needs to fight to get crystals and all are getting tons of it, everyone is able to save and invest to the new meta. You are killing the fun by yourself in some way due to being social.
Without competition everyone is equal and needs to stay somewhere in the middle like everyone else, in a complete social world everyone values the same and it becomes boring. Even if they split your shard (what won't happen for sure) over time the same problem will come back. Stop being social if you want diversity or you're just one in a million. Peace for everyone is possible but it's boring, that's the sad truth.
