It can be a 10 year wait. In 10 years I have gotten a handful of Btag friend requests. Ten years of being green and posting on the Diablo forums (often way more hostile than WoW, esp back around D3 release), Overwatch, HotS, HS, and even once in a while on SC. Mostly tech/cs stuff, but still. I talk a lot on the Diablo forums and only a handful ever tried talking to me.
Those few who did are mostly other folks who help answer player questions.
Not saying something bad could not happen. It is why I donât have any public social media, reddit, or anything else. I keep it to the Blizz communications where I have control over things and can report if something happens.
Putting aside the obvious catch that thereâs no guarantee that the BattleTag Honeypot put in here is indeed âhersâ:
Just like you claimed not having personal interest in me, I have no personal interest in finding out which other Blizzard games the person behind âHoneypotâ may or may not play as well ⊠and at least for now I also have zero professional interest in doing such profiling.
Iâll bite once
So if you arenât referencing harassment or stalking and arenât being pedantic here, then why worry if someone âcouldâ see what game you are playing without you knowing?
So wouldnât this mean your argument is senseless?
To quote Shakespeare here: âThe lady doth protest too much, me thinks.â
I have found one thing very telling about those who oppose this measure, itâs a pile of circular arguments that lead to the same non issues. It also shows me how many more are acting in bad faith on a lot of toons. More than I ever thought.
And with that the âhonestâ part goes straight out of the window ~laugh~
Are you suggesting that Iâm not allowed to worry about the potentials of opening up âthe systemâ to various forms of profiling attempts?
Or is your question just another false dilemma in disguise that you will see confirmed via the ad hominem aspect of âbeing pedanticâ with the implication that my objections could be dismissed based on that stipulation being true.
For someone who acts like Iâm a âbad faith actorâ you sure as hell are acting in very âbad faithâ yourself.
Iâll tell you that the rogue is doing a great deal to keep themselves hidden for some reason.
only show per character achievements is on
they used a level 50 boost, and used the scouting map for cataclysm content, EK and Kalimdor all on the same day.
Are hiding that account from 3rd party sites.
Hidden forum profile.
None of those options are on by default, nor are they easily turned on by mistake, makes you wonder if they are up to something
If they do not want to add me they could remove a bnet friend and tell them, hey, Iâm trying something out let me see.
I was just watering my rose bushes and this toad lives under a smol hole in the concrete. It came out to get some water from the hose and I sprayed off some of the brick to get the bugs down and it ate them. Simple pleasures
No one has added me still tho. Iâm curious where the harassers are or maybe they only bother ppl who seem legit bothered? đ«
Nope. It just means that Iâm personally not the type of person (and institution) to which my âworryâ applies.
Let me make another ârandomâ quote then: Never put passion before principle
And I guess thatâs why Iâm advocating for âa singular dedicated forum avatar on a per game basisâ?
Such âbad faithâ acting is definitely not limited to those youâre referencing there. To a certain degree you just made a very âbad faithâ comment when asking your question and starting to answer it yourself along with a depiction of how allegedly others act.
Oh indeed ⊠the question is: Am I allowed to have such âreasonsâ?
Which is more than I would have liked to be visible on a character that exists solely to provide me a distinct forum avatar that is removed from the game itself as much as possible.
Thatâs most definitely done on purpose and âŠ
⊠this just means Iâm consistent and consequent in what Iâm doing.
Indeed.
And this is where it actually becomes a âyouâ problem and has nothing to do with my actual motivations at all.
