Can we have more privacy in forums to feel more safe?

[Fuzzbutt-zuljin]

I can ignore a character name from the forum before they whisper. Anon I can’t.

[Sylvansong-wyrmrest-accord]

But what if they wanted to act with impunity, Fuzz. You can’t do that if people have the option to block you.

@Quenya-shadow-council

Anonymity brings out the worst in people.

@Quenya-shadow-council

4Chan.

this forum is worse than 4chan tbh I’ve been in both

[Fuzzbutt-zuljin]

Eeh idk about that. Lot of illegal stuff goes on around there.

Least here theres some moderation.

[Sylvansong-wyrmrest-accord]

Yo Evil love the new look

Having the ability to fully hide one’s armory from repeat stalkers

I am still demanding ya’ll be funneling all of these “stalkers” my way.

Evilmuffin#11121

I keep asking, and it keeps not happening.

I am disappointed, I must say.

[Myfwyc-wyrmrest-accord]

@Madelke-mannoroth

but they contact me and i have to read their harrassment message before i can place them on ignore - a system of full anonymous posting would prevent that at the source and not even give them the opportunity to contact me in-game.

1. It would not, people can still message you ingame irrelevant of the forums.

@Madelke-mannoroth

personally, it would be best if they werent able to contact me in game at all in the first place.

You can already turn off in-game messages

[Myfwyc-wyrmrest-accord]

@Madelke-mannoroth

but wouldn’t it be a better situation if those people didn’t have the opportunity to contact you in-game in the first place?

No, cause this is a social game, I communicate with plenty of people on the forums and off, if someone messages me bad stuff I report them which ignores them for me.

The option to turn off messages is already there and you’re free to take it.

I mean, I haven’t ever stalked anyone. However I’m sure I could Google how to be a nice stalker or something.

[Evilmuffin-uther (Evilmuffin)]

@Madelke-mannoroth

but they contact me

Please give them my bnet. I’ll deal with them.

kthnx

[Madelke-mannoroth]

@Myfwyc-wyrmrest-accord

people can still message you ingame irrelevant of the forums.

but the issue is that people are able to bring disagreements from the forums into the game, which i would prefer did not happen.

[Madelke-mannoroth]

@Fuzzbutt-zuljin

I can ignore a character name from the forum before they whisper.

but can’t that person just log on a different character and whisper you?

like use a character in game that is different than their forum character?

@Fuzzbutt-zuljin

Anon I can’t.

with anonymous posting, that person would never be able to find your in-game character to start off.

[Lendoranah-stormrage]

People do that? Huh, I learn something new every day

[Varidra-shadow-council]

@Madelke-mannoroth

but can’t that person just log on a different character and whisper you?

Then you report that person for Harassment. As stated before. People are not allowed to circumvent a ignore. So in reality all they are doing is getting themselves into more trouble.

[Varidra-shadow-council]

Never happened to me, however that’s not to say it doesn’t happen from time to time.

[Myfwyc-wyrmrest-accord]

@Madelke-mannoroth

but the issue is that people are able to bring disagreements from the forums into the game, which i would prefer did not happen.

So people disagreeing with you about other stuff is fine but some disagreement on the forums isn’t?

Again if you don’t want to interact with people at all that option is already available in game

[Cäpslöck-proudmoore]

@Varidra-shadow-council

People are not allowed to circumvent a ignore

But the problem is: Why is that even possible to begin with?

OP and Made (who I’m not 100% certain are different people), are basically arguing that you should leave your keys in your unlocked car all day at work, because you can work with the cops to recover it when it gets stolen.

[Breadisfunny-turalyon (Breadisfunny)]

i feel called out here.

@Evilmuffin-uther

I am disappointed, I must say.

oh me ill help ya out.

[Aqure-westfall]

yeah I post on a classic character I don’t play and it solves the in game problem without consuming any of blizzard’s time

[Madelke-mannoroth]

@Varidra-shadow-council

Then you report that person for Harassment.

but i should not have to deal with that in the first place.
