I remember seeing in some politican correspendent report is that Player starports are extreemly unlikely. The number of variables a Player Starport would effect is ten times greater than of a player shuttleport. According to the report it would greatly increase lag especialy when selecting starports to travel to. Maybe somebody can link to the report for me.
putting words in my mouth now are you?
hehe, just kidding... although that's not the reason 
no, they won't implement this. why? they want to lure folks to NPC cities. I guess they think that if PC cities had everything there would be no one hanging out in the NPC cities. do I agree with that? no, but the devs had their heart set. ask all you want, it's not going to happen.

Wont happend because that would render the NPC cities almost completely useless. I also think SOE have stated something about it before that because of this only static cities will have star ports.

I don't know who said that, maybe it was some randum guy. I did her a lag.implimentation excuse from somebody. Anywho, its not going to happen. Besides who wants a big ass starport taking up room in your city anyway.

I don't think the lag issue is relevent tbh, on farstar, Mos Lowlands (a player city) is the only town in the galaxy u will find a hunt group, and not just 1, but every hunt group (with the possible except of the Kash grinders), now the lag out there is unbelievable, they have a shuttleport.
Now what difference would a starport there actually make?
Every town is already a ghost town, apart from citys used as hunting grounds, Starports in player citys would mainly be used by shoppers and citizens, i don't really see how it would affect anything more then player shuttleports.
I know there r issue's that would have to be worked out, but there is with anything, and im sad to see such negativity tbh, alot of things in SWG need changing, updating etc.
Im not saying im right, this is just my opinion, but saying it can't/won't happen isn't the issue, would u like it to?
The Devs have said alot of things over the months, so a U-Turn on any issue wouldn't be a surprise, since it depends largely on where the game is heading at the time IMO, and it seems they r push ppl away from the NPC towns again, so maybe Starports for player citys isn't that far fetched.
Either way, we can dream
