You are so hyper focused on being reported that you can’t see past it and look at everything else that was listed.
BattleTag is fine. Just to prove the point, my battletag is CommandoCat#1409. It already shows in the forums of other Blizzard games.
Yup would help with ignoring trolls
It really would. It would be 1 BTag to ignore instead of the army of alts.

Nah they don’t care they know the point they are making doesn’t make sense so they just repeat it ad nauseum so people will keep talking to them.
I think the main difference, is that using Btag allows people to send you a friend request, while an arbitrary forum username would not.
The point is, to tie forum activities into one profile. As others have suggested, it wouldn’t even have to be your actual Bnet name, and could be a different username that you choose. This way, people who have a lot of alts don’t get more likes, flags, etc than people who only post on one character.
I personally don’t even care about switching alts to post, but I think the rules should prevent people from replying/liking their own account, only able to flag or like other players’ posts once, etc.

All Kelgar is focused on is thinking its purpose is to get people banned in game for forum violations. Which does not happen in every other Blizzard game where they use BTag in their forums. He can’t look past his own “reasoning” to see all of the other points.

When happens when Rita2 meets a nice guy but the guy much perfers Rita10 to Rita2?
There is a point,
Alt self liking, alt self conversations, and alt mass flagging is all issues that would be solved with said change.

I may be wrong, but I think you are talking one of the alts you are referring too. Notice the lack of actual points and the circular debate tactics.
On a bright note, the more they dissent the more this stays on the front page!

I personally wouldn’t care if my Btag was displayed. Then again, I’m also not in the business of hiding/trolling on alts 
I doubt I’d get random invites and if I did, I would just decline them as I do if I get a random invite after a dungeon run etc. It’s not like displaying my Btag forces me to accept requests.

We have had multiple people post their BTags in this thread alone, and no one has reported any trolling.
Exactly how I feel. Keep it bumping.

Maybe, just maybe you shouldn’t have done that then? Imagine that we live in a world where personal accountability matters… oh it does, never mind.

ill say it again blizzard can ban people in the forums now and you can mute posts you dont like there is zero reason to tie the forums to a battle tag unless you want more strict banning like even in game.
converting the forums to your battle tag would kill the forums it self…its ok most people are at the reddit forums then here anyway…lol.
It is just like you said. Blizzard already knows. They already know who you are and what your in game characters are. Which means changing to BattleTag will not change that. It has nothing to do with banning. You realize every other Blizzard game title uses BattleTags in their forums right?

correct all converting to battle tag would do is get your battle tag banned which could lead to in game bans.
That isn’t how it works.
