I would love it if you could become a defector… in SWTOR as well as other MMOs. Say that you're Sith, but tend to gain a lot of light side points… I'm only a 13, that assume that after a while Darth Baras is going to become angry about that. What would happened if I started totally acting like a Jedi? Would the Sith throw me out or try to kill me? I have 2 Sith warriors. One has more Light points than Dark Side and the other always answers with the Dark responses. Because IRL I'm a nice guy, I feel bad punishing Vettte, even if she's just a collection of data on my computer LOL!
Also- in faction change, do you keep the crew you have or get the ones meant for the other side?
