Switching Sides
I don't think I'll bring JJ over to the dark side although the undercover/brainwashing would be an easy way to explain it.
Knight Assault i could bring over. He was psychically damaged and turned to evil. I could have him "cured"
hmm.... posibilities...
My MA Arcs: [29581 - A Knight to Remember] [107587 - Upgrade] [41834 - Construction Blues]
Playing on: Protector - Guardian - Victory
If I can do it, I'll probably move all of them to Redside. I've found that I VASTLY prefer that end of the pool. Not only are the contacts more interesting, but also the fact that there is less space to travel means that instead of spending my slots on Flight and Hover, I can just hop into Ouro, get to Grand, and pick up a cheap Jet Pack and max my character better. Also, the enemies tend to make more sense and seem less "Silver Age."
Now, the one thing that could throw a monkey wrench into that is Praetoria. My two mains are (and always have been) Praetoria Arachnos, which by the rules of the place must be a peace-keeping force. I'm excited to see if I can finally get them back to their superiors in that organization, and in that case, I might move them to Blue.
All in all, though, I have to admit that I wish this would have been centered around Ouro and the Menders. This would have given us the opportunity to explain that the past history of the characters was changed and that's why they might have changed sides. Plus, we would have gotten a "CoX: The Golden Age" by default. But then, I wish MA would have been Ouro based as well, instead of an "entertainment tool developed by Crey and Dr. Aeon."

With Going Rogue announced, the question arises, who among your characters would swap, and why? Or better yet, why not?

funny you should ask, seeing as none of my heroes are heroes and villians are villians, they are all vigilantes
I know that my main villain (robo/device MM) will likely change sides. She's the sister to my hero main, and the reason for her being a villain to start with was the fact that she's willing to go to nearly any extent to gain power to fight the Rikti with. She's a "the end justifies the means" kinda character.
The only thing that might prevent this depends on how SGs are handled. If I have to drop her from the VG, then I may not. I've spent crazy hours designing it.
Delrune (aka Mionas)
I'm not story driven, so it depends upon the overall structure of the side-switching mechanism. I would like to move one of my tankers red-side if only for balance. Likewise, Spinnaker finished all his lvl 50 arcs long ago, so a trip to red-side would be a welcome opportunity, but I would eventually want to bring him back.
I don't see my Angel Red's going red-side, although there are 4 servers on which I don't have the name (yet ), and I've been toying with the idea of make one red-side. A Praetorian Earth version might work out quite well...
Molech Ivory, my main villain, and one of my heroes, Scarlet Seraph could actually swap places. The war between their two races not only culminated in the destruction of their home worlds, but the solar systems they were in and well as 3 others.

Awesome point! That would change my mind fast!
Blazing Blue 50 fire/fire Blast, BlueStarr 50 PB, BlueSt 50 stone/ss Tank, Purple Pummaler 50 bs/regen Scrap, Green Puritan 50 emp/nrg Def, Raging Red 50 ice/cold Cor,WhiteLightning 50 ill/storm Cont, GrayMatter 44 WS,Green Marauder 24 nrg/stone Brute,Dark Blue Blaze 26 fire/fire Cor,etc
Actually, in my case, the history between my villain group and hero group, an undercover op makes a lot of sense.
