Movies that made you cry...
The one I can remember off the top of my head is Prayers for Bobby
At one point in beta, there was a cross-faction GTN, but I think they scrapped it.
I just take the headset off; it's not too cumbersome.
Open your Abilities panel ("p"). Each of your abilities will be categorized as Active, Passive, Melee, Ranged, Force, or Tech (I think I got them all). Active is for abilities that you need to activate but that aren't attacks (e.g., stances such as Stealth). Passive is for abilities that are always on and generally modify other abilities (e.g., constant increased healing effectiveness). Melee and Ranged abilities are attacks that don't rely on Force or Tech. These sorts of abilities are not affected by No Holds Barred. Force and Tech are abilities that depend on Force or Tech, respectively.
I hope that helps.
