Locking your information from third party sites

you can set it to hid it on here but people can head over to wow armory ant type in the name

22

How many people would do that extra work? I bet not many.

I have already disabled these:

Game data sharing

Achievement Points

Forum set to private.

I don’t trust anyone.

Guess it’s good this is my main character and the only one I post on. I’m not like the others here with legions of alts hopping over to false flag and get a post flagged

Are my takes correct? Sometimes. Do I get a little trolly? Maybe. But at least I don’t sock puppet

Then those sites are illegally bypassing blizzard restrictions.

25

Right? The only time I switch is when I’m making a joke or memeing. I don’t WANT to switch because I want people to know it’s me.

I have nothing to hide and switching from alt to alt just to troll is too much effort. I don’t have the energy for that crap.

If Blizzard’s API allows it

That means nothing if I see you in game on a mount or with a pet out it would take me 10 mins to find every alt on your account. For someone who is concerned about account security you sure don’t know allot about it. FYI the blizz API allows it so no rules being broken

Go ahead name all my alts. If you think there are ways out there.

32

its one of the few ways to find the sock puppet accounts and the fake i just started wow and i hate it players

33

Gotta see you in game first my dude

34

Too much work for nothing burger. Play the game instead

35

Not really it only takes 10 minutes to do. Is it a bit extreme? Yeah but that’s not the point. Point being you can take all the steps you want it doesn’t actually stop it from being able to be done.

36

So, you are hacking the database to find peoples alts even with safeguards in place like game data sharing is disabled which is blizzards way of blocking all third party sites. If it can bypass that then you’re using a illegal application that is not approved by blizzard.

37

How can one hack when the armory is available regardless through the main website?

Not talking about the armory. This guy thinks there are applications out there that can bypass blizzards game data sharing disabled functionality.

Oh dear lord


I have to have some level of respect for someone who gets it wrong with so much confidence and conviction.
