Can we ask for more privacy features in forums to feel more secure?

[Voiron-moon-guard]

You can dance around the issue all you want, but it’s very simple. You were wrong, or you consider that to be an “opinion” and there’s nothing wrong with that. Two options. No wiggle room. Sorry.

[Jaesears-dalaran]

I support battletags for the forums to prevent people from character hopping to make it seem like there’s a lot of support for their bad ideas.

Vongola#1794 is my battletag.

Did you know it’s NOT personal information? It’s just a nickname and you can learn nothing about me with this information because it’s not personal.

You can send me a friend request, which I can easily deny. That’s it

You can say that one again. Lets agree to never speak of this topic again.

was saying 30 years ago.

Get your numbers right. 30 years ago, it was 1994, WoW Launched 2004. That post that was referenced was 3 years old.

So if you actually cared about alleviating that, that’s what you’d advocate for.

I actually want people to be able to change their linked character, for RP purposes, and still have it associated to a single forum entity.

@Booktok-defias-pillager

And Blizzard has said multiple times that this is not common behavior anyway.

See, and that’s why. You’re someone I already have on ignore on an alt. Thanks for showing exactly why this is a terrible idea and why Blizz is much more likely to either shut down the forums completely or move to a single b-tag like system.

This poor poor thread. It was doomed 3 times (or more) before, and this one further serves as proof of what a bad idea the OP has.

@Jaesears-dalaran

Except the OP, who apparently feels very strongly about anonymous posting, won’t answer ANY question that we offer to her.

I have the same experience. Wonder why they ask for our “Thoughts” or a discussion on the topic when they don’t answer questions.

Blizzard has said that it is not as common as people may think, but is not rare either. Stop twisting words around.

Where are we roleplaying on this forum?

Because this suggestion can only exist and seem rational if you ignore how everything works.

Once any discussion actually happens, everything gets turned upside down.

[Jaesears-dalaran]

Because they don’t actually care about the topic. They have proven that they are here to cause unrest, especially knowing that this topic is important to many of us.

This does not respond to anything I’ve said.

My point is if you actually care about the community of the forums, you’d report people that you believe are trolling via multiple characters.

@Perl-anetheron

See, and that’s why. You’re someone I already have on ignore on an alt.

Vrakthris has requested that we not do this from the last thread. Please abide by his request and stick to topic at hand:

@Nelfas-azshara

Moderation Note Part 2:

Reopening thread for civil discussion. Accusations of Trolling or X is Y’s alt, which the ones I’ve been have been entirely false so far, will likely be removed. Additional penalties possible, but I’d rather not.

@Nelfas-azshara

Moderation Note Part 3:

Sorry, folks, but this thread cannot seem to stay on track. Accusing each other of reporting posts, mass reporting, false reporting, etc… who may be alts or switching characters to report or otherwise sock-puppet, etc… If I tried to clean that up it would nuke so many posts it wouldn’t be worth it.

I will allow another thread to be created if Nelfas wishes, but any such call outs, accusations of trolling, sock-puppeting, that a post has been reported and restored, etc… well… please avoid it, this is getting old.

Please, let’s keep it civil.

Ironic. Since I keep trying to have discussion, and your response is to derail.

[Sylvansong-wyrmrest-accord]

Well that’s a rabbit hole to go down into

Calzone#11988 approves this message as well.

[Ayukama-frostmourne]

I hate it how your BattleTag can make me hungry.

[Panzershock-illidan]

Maybe we need to change the term from Opinion to Belief. You can change an opinion, you can’t change a belief.

No one cares about RP on the forums LOL.
