All.
why would you not be happy about that.. considering they can share alegacy tree. and they can transfer items.. having rep and imp on same server makes sense.. never mind that having rep and imp on same server is the ONLY .. cant stress that enough ONLY way to get the HK companion... i think you got off lucky and should be happy as hell

Dude, have a bit of heart, many ppl have played their characters since from launch and made friends and reputation throughout their nick. How would you feel if someone else suddenly walked around with your name and you had to make a new name of your self.

We all appriciate the work they are doing for us now, but as many pointed out if bw had done their work properly the first time we wouldnt have ended up in this situation.

Also imagine the last server getting allowed to transfer to a server there already has been open up for many other servers. Their names will properly all also be taken aswell so getting back with your guildmembers isnt exactly easy

it might be hard to find yoru guild mates but honestly a quick post on whatever guild forum should sort that out.. a GOOD... guild leader will have thought of this and will have a way for people to contact him/her in order to get back in the guild.. sure it sucks but playing this game by yourself sucks more.. trust me ive seen the daily threads devoted to this game being single player for months now..

I just added the person to friends list who has the only character name I wanted, it's a level 16. So my level 50 loses his name to a level 16 who is likely never to play the game again?

It could very well be someone who just bought the game, an alt of an old-time player, someone who has a life and therefore not much time to play, etc. Isn't it a big arrogant to consider yourself more important than the other person, just because you're lvl 50 and they're lvl 16? (Or consider yourself more important than someone else, period, for that matter?)

consdiering peopel can get to level 50 in such a short time it isnt that big of an accomplishment to reach 50:P

You should petition bioware to destory that characters Pfile ane perminately bind that name to your email account so no one can ever ever use it again.. I think that is perfectly fair and a completely rational thing to do...

some people dont play as much or hard as others.. some people can get to 50 in a week.. its not that huge of an accomplishment and surely not big enough to demand some level 16 give you a character name over..

Not happy because...

A - I wasn't given a choice.
B - I wanted one of each lightside class on the same server and one of each Darkside class on the same server.
C - I Don't want to share Legacy.
D - Not arsed about transfering Items.
E - If I was arsed about getting a HK, THEN I would consider making a NEW character to enable getting it.

And before you say don't transfer. I'm not going to have much choice when I end up being the only one left on my original server.

So no i'm NOT fecking lucky. And no I'm NOT happy as hell.
