Short of Bioware taking the names from the people that already have them on the destination server. And giving them to the OP so he can feel "complete" you will never be able to 100% satisfy people like them.

Gross generalizations are just that. Funny how sick-minded this community is when someone gives their opinion on something, it must be belittled or shouted down if it doesn't shoot sunshine out of their backside. They could have easily given us more choice in where we wanted to be. Their destinations they chose are all so overfull it is horrible, they should never have merged so many into so few. Queues this long after release is a sickness.

Queues this long after release is a sickness. This is begging for a cliche of some sort: Coulda, Shoulda, Woulda... "Hindsight is 20/20" It could have happened that way, but it didn't. It's ok to be upset about it and it's even ok to air that feeling. It's not ok to have the expectation that everyone else is going to feel the same way you do or agree with your opinion. I'd bet a virtual arm-wrestling match that they are gonna go straight on to imminent-domain tactics and move you whether you like it or not.

All I know is that I have enjoyed playing on my empty server more then any other time the game has been out. I dont even know or care what 25 black hole points are... LOL. I finally feel like I am the hero in the universe like it was meant to be..... not just a rat in a maze. I absolutely hated going to the Fleets and seeing all these people flying around in their speeders...... such an immersion killer. I understand why Bioware has to merge, its economics. I will however stay and enjoy my gaming experience as long as possible even if I lose out on some pixel rewards later.

There are words like shadow, shade, dark, raven, night, etc. (anything to do with darkness), that are bound to be taken very quickly as names in any MMO, as are any variations on the names (be it variant spellings, accented characters or variant spellings with accented characters. They're very popular. Case in point: the name Shayde is taken on 217 servers in WoW. That being said, yes, it's unfortunate that you will have to change your name if you transfer to your destination server, but if you're that attached to it, see if you can find the name on a different destination server and transfer there when transfers become available.

I am one of those ppl that lost all their names but one. Guess what, this gave me the chance to pick some really very original names coupled with my legacy.

I donot think there is enough players left on the 100+ servers to do another round of transfers.

In fact to the point you almost make it seem like it is a physical ownership. Who is to say that the other player who has the same name(s) as your characters doesn't feel the same way? My character names are very original, to the point that I had no problem and lost only one.. I attempted to make place holders back when transfers were first acknowledged, but the server I ended up on was not one where I made place holders.. I only made place holders on that server the week that transfers started.
