WC3: Are player names same as bnet names?

Just had the closest match ever

Tried to /msg that player to congratulate

“This player cannot receive your whispers because you are not friends with them.”

Try to add through bnet client

Send request button won’t work

Wot am I doing wrong?

Ty

just like anywhere else in battle.net, you need their entire battle tag, with the #number after the name.

Names are different, here on forum I am Cat and during War3 game I have another name.
Also what is bothering, once I played with a lot of Cat named players, there were 3 in game… very bad decision from blizzard but that’s it. The number beyond names (which are not displayed (cat#11934) make difference, hope they cannot be the same.
