I was browsing the internet and happened upon a great idea. When PVP queue times are high, start adding people from the other factions (who are in queue) as mercenaries in order to fill both groups up. Participating as a mercenary would net you a small amount of Mercenary Commendations in addition to PVP commendations.

(Possible)*SPOILER ALERT* I finished the series on Hoth to get the special droid chip. After you turn it in to fixer-308 she plays a holo recording, and the guy tells you "If I were you I would take a vacation somewhere very warm" thats as far as I got. Next stop Tatooine (best guess)
