I am unreasonably happy about this feature. But, it means I can have all of my lightside characters on one server and my darkside characters on another server and they can still help each other out (crafting items, sending found items, etc.) regardless of what faction they're one. I am a happy altoholic. Bioware, thank you for enabling me. -DZ

And the ability to equip/unequip/compare items for all of our companions. Something like a "Companion Management" interface, please. -DZ

I would think it would be cross server, but I wonder if they'll have something that would permit people from different servers to automatically be grouped together by using the Group Finder. Just in case you hit it off and enjoy playing together, why let being on different servers stop you? I know there are strong feelings on both sides on this, usually, though. I say the more options, the better. Also, for those that are having trouble finding people that play the game at the same times as you, check my sig for info on a project I'm putting together. It should be available soon. I hope it helps in this exact situation. -DZ

So far, most of my characters are either human or cyborg. The other races, though cool in some regard, are still too human looking (for me). Droid would be an awesome option and would open a whole new crafting and equipment set of options. I think it's a great idea! Of course, I want to play a Jawa Jedi, too. So, I'm nuts and you should take what I say with a grain of salt. -DZ

Use the Force, Darkim. /Obi-Wan voice

I might go with "wants a real last name". But, I'm not to that point in the game yet. DZ
