And for good reason! Easier for others to harass you if they know your battle.net tag. Plus these forums are unique and should keep characters as the forum avatar.
Because World of Warcraft is different. The other Blizzard games are rather generic in how they can customize their forum. WoW has character avatars since forever and it should stay that way.
Explain how they would harass you with your BattleTag. That is misinformation. It would make it harder to be harassed.
Lol. You can have it display your battletag and enable players to choose their avatar. Donât be obtuse.
People keep saying this.
I have posted mine numerous times.
I have yet to be harassed.
Wait till Iâve had too much vodka one night 
rofl⌠But then we could be snarky croutons to one another and it would be funny.
Iâm more of a scotch neat type of drinker.
Oh well excuse me. So posh.
I get sloppy and then read back things I write the next day. đŤ
If someone knows your battle.net, they can search you in every blizzard game.
Thatâs if Blizzard decides to overhaul and include the extras. They most likely wouldnât and would go the way of every other forum.
It doesnât have to be nice scotch 
Okay, and do what? They canât contact you without you adding them back as friends.
In EVERY blizzard game yâall.
I⌠still do not understand the problem.
Seriously. Where are these harassers? Send them my way. Iâll lol at them, banter with them and trade snarky jabs and then make them wait forever while I rando afk to bake cookies or something (itâs a very bad habit I have in game, and on this desktop lol).
Is this a problem?
Right? Iâve acted upset when it was entertaining to me and to see how far some ppl would take things.
If only the poor peons knew Iâve been on the internet for almost 30 years and have been told and seen it all.
I sometimes am tabbed out or walk away and miss messages. FYI
Sounds like a great way to give out more and more info for people to harass others outside the forums. No thanks.
Apparently some people do it to stir up trouble⌠or to have imaginary friends⌠or get faker internet points or something⌠whatever, idk lol. Confuses me, but whatevs.
Yâall keep saying this. But in this very thread, when I posted my btag (right up above in those comments up yonder), I got two people who added me. I know who one is, the other messaged me, said sorry, talked about cats and that was it.
These harassers that are apparently everywhere, well, they ainât got no game, son.
Why do people automatically assume everyone would be âscaredâ or âstop doing X thingâ if there is a sense of connection to who they really areâŚcheese and rice can tell this world is filled some unique people.
What are we 10? I mean I am 10, going on 11, maybe 34, could be 26 but what are we 6?
Lol. How. BattleTag is not RealID.
Just poking my head in to say âI support this!â while also understanding that Blizzard does not care and will sadly never see this thread.
