Being a the nice person you are would involve not being greedy and clicking need for your companion. Your companion should not be a reason to hit the need button unless no one else wants to item, or they say its ok. If your in a group of people, companions shouldnt even be involved they arent in the group. So then that means because your companions take up pretty much all kind of class gear, you are just going to hit need for every good item for a companion? Kinda ruins the point of need. The last thing we need is companions running around with better gear then the people we are doing an operation with.

Well i will always ask what the looting rules are, if people say they are going to take stuff with their companion, i will just hit the kick button, or if im in the group just leave.

Ahhhhh, did the companion contribute in the quest? Was he part of the group? If that is the case then sure, but if they are absent why should u loot something for that companion when the person actually doing something doesn't get the loot? Sounds backwards to me, if thats how u want it, gl bringing your healer/tank companion, because bet you no one will want to lose loot to a companion.....

Soooo, if i like imperials and hate republic, and i want all of my alts to be imperial , i have to go to a different server to put my alts and not be able to play with my friends or guild? sorry but that is stupid no one should be forced to do anything i shouldnt be able to do what i want because your faction is outnumbered.

Exactly, these people do not understand the fact that we are playing the imperial side... because we like playing the imperials not because we can just zerg republic all day on illum. I played imperial because i always liked empire, in the movies i always wanted empire to win. In other games like kotor 1 and 2 never made a good side character, always bad and did bad endings, because i liked it better, if i was forced to play a jedi in this game because of faction inbalance, i probably wouldn't play the game at all. I am paying to play what i want, not being forced to play republic. I created an imperial without even knowing about the faction inbalance, and the inbalance has nothing to do with me making an imperial, if it was the other way around i would still be playing imperial.

ITS CALLED MUTE, im sorry im that i want a way to communicate while in combat, typing during combat isnt a good way to comunicate, keeps a pug a lot more organized

I dont see how in game voice chat is a disadvantage? It is a big advantage to pugs, and i dont want to hear annoying people, just mute them. But jeeze in ddo i never had problems with annoying people. It would be alot better to just have ingame chat then use vent for a pug.

THHHAAANNNN***K YOOUUU with just one post you shut up all of the ignorant, inpatient people who are complaining in this thread. I love it
