You're extremely adamant that the concept of social blacklisting does not exist in MMOs.

Post your name, server, guild, and that you will roll need on every piece of gear for your companion in raids/groups even though a player may need that item.
One would be an idiot to post their character info on these forums due to the maturity level of the folks that cannot accept that others have a different opinion that themselves. Just opening yourself up for abuse that has nothing to do with the issue at hand.

I've already been over this. I will repeat myself. The point of an instance is to gear up your character. Your companion is a part of your character. I don't care that I couldn't use my companion for the instance (because I would if I could!), that's not the point. The point is gearing out my character, which includes my companion!

*I* am the one playing the game as clearly intended by Bioware. You are the one setting subjective rules that have nothing to do with the reality of the game.

My personal feeling is people (REAL people) come first. That does not include your companions and alts.

However, by simple game design, you are free to roll how you want on whatever you want. You are also free to be blacklisted on your server for the rest of your character's existence.

Make your choice and live with the consequences.
TORtanic indeed. It's just like that movie that was hugely successful and made boatloads of money.
This is an MMO. Whether you play with or see the other players is irrelevant to that fact.

You know, if anything, the self-entitlement attitude people have about gear is kinda putting a bad taste in my mouth. Why does anyone think that just because they are in a group and something drops they can use that it will automatically go to them? Who told you that? I have just as much right to that light armor chest piece, dps lightsaber or blaster pistol as you do. It's none of your business why I needed it, I needed it therefore I need it. End of story.

I agree, but I don't think he really expects the poster's info, I think he's trying to make a larger point. Just my take, though I may certainly be mistaken.

No kidding. Last thing I need is my ignore list and email box being full because the guy demanding my info has a grudge and makes 389 alts on my server to harass me.

-nods-

But asking someone to post player info on a forum proves not point at all, as no rational person will take this request seriously.
