Yeah the more we fight the less we pay attention to the ones over in Irvine
What? people will know your battletag?
2 things:
- what do you expect them to do with it?
- Yours is already in many places on this forum, see:
Alt posting is not the issue. The issue is people using alts to get around ignores , the issue is people using alts with special characters and no armory . WHich makes it harder to put people on ignore and they know that so it makes it easier for them to troll.
Literally the only thing a hidden profile does is make it take 4 steps to ignore you instead of 2.
It doesn’t hide your post history.
Like mentioned above add in the alt code and it gets a little harder becaue even if you copy paste it into ignore a lot of times you end up having to type the name in so you can add the server and that means having to find the right alt code for a letter.
That can be a pain in the glutious maximus
no.
just the generic “rage at the game” / “rage at blizzard” / “ban my forum account” stuff.
most people seem fine with alt posting.
…but troll-alt posting is not beneficial to the forum, the community, the game, or blizzards coffers.
As an example, look at the pointless rant/drama/troll threads created by various posters… oh wait… you probably can’t, because they get deleted.
I’m not sure why specific individuals are able to create so many pointless threads, and not be “educated” about their trash-posting.
Weird thing is, one of the threads this morning which had only been up for 20 minutes or so, had dozens of likes… an inordinate amount, which is simply not in line with any of the other threads, and not in line with the standard level of forum activity at that time of day.
Manipulation solely in an attempt to make the game look bad.
…which can be done freely, because there is no accountability.
If people weren’t able to their own posts, these threads would lose traction and drop off the page… instead of giving the outward appearance that INDIVIDUALS are actually in agreement with the trashposting.
(kind of amazing how NONE of the posters hearting the post take the time to drop a word or two… you’d think if people were so passionate about something, they’d at least stop by for long enough to dig the boot in)
Omg no one
Cares because it’s just a
Stupid forum post you’ll forget about in a day or two.
If you click on a person’s view activity (post history) with profile hidden , the page it goes to you get
Now if their profile isn’t hiden you get
Yeah I agree ^ this isn’t even an issue. You’re wasting your time.
Or, you could just use the built in search with the code @character-server.
for example

Whelp, one more once again added to ignore because they changed to an alt. Never would have happened with account wide ignores. I thank the nice person, also in this thread, for pointing it out so I can immediately ignore that vitriolic person.
I fully support this, OP.
And to top that off, they tend to make it out that the ones who want Btags as the ones that want to stalk or harass people. This just leads more credence to the idea of “I want to do it, but don’t want it done to me” as you can bet IF, and I repeat, IF, those that want Btags did use them to stalk or harass others it would mostly be the ones that they felt stalked and harassed them. Everyone needs to remember:
- turnabout is fair play and
- Karma is a female dog
why do you need to go through my posts for? or why are you using me as examples lol. havent you had enough with literally making a character and impersonating me? the amount of digging and stuff is probably why they haven’t done anything. people would honestly go through peoples just to point they said something non-related to a topic so it’s hidden lol. same as the achievements thing. this honestly makes you look like stalkers than anything else but keep the good fight going i guess lol
but when i say i would like an alternative like the 2nd example you picked you guys will turn around and say no…??? so do i need be for btags and also be for this one too? the back and forth, flip flopping and inconsistency in some of your posts are getting ridculous honestly. not you mirasol but other pro’s here.
ignore the post i deleted it’s just me replying to mirasols post in 1 post.
I have never made a character of anyone and it was a response in regards to a response I made to you.
As for the digging Btags won’t make it easier because for what appears to be intentional daftness on your part " NO ONE CAN KNOW WHAT ALL YOUR TOONS ARE BY JUST FINDING OUT YOUR BTAG
THey can only find out what toons you have if you permit them to be a btag friend and only then they can only see what toon is logged on .
I’m thinking people are right about you being a troll when all of this was pointed out to you in the previous thread but I guess if the facts don’t back up your agenda then perpetuate the lie.
Done with you and your trolling
that is not me being a troll, i still don’t care to want btags and regardless. i don’t want btags, i want better mods, 1 account 1 ignores.
just because the reason i don’t want it and it’s not good enough for you or any other doesn’t make me a troll or daft.
anyway, if you think i’m lying or a troll or whatever else then that’s fine but please place me on mute/ignore because you’re getting to the point were youre insulting me for no reason and you were one of the few pro’s that werent being rude. oh well.
The forums would arguably be a more fun place to provide feedback for blizzard as well without having to deal w / be bombarded by individuals using sock puppets to drown out other opinions or hype up their own stance.
The status quo of people being allowed to sock puppet does not make this a fun atmosphere to provide feedback which at its core would be what blizzard i would think as a company wants the forums for.
It wouldn’t allow for sock puppets and given who you’re replying to I would say that was the reason for their wording / seeing a negative impact.
