New forum function - posting anonymously, as Anonymous

[Adorability-moon-guard]

I think dunce caps could more easily be applied if we could see a relevant account/character. Anonymous posters should simply be dismissed.

Ty for the info. When someone gets that bad, I hope it gets passed to the moderation team in game. We can argue, disagree blah blah but that’s too much. Perma ban from the game and forums imo. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.

Much love <3

This would greatly increase self-confidence, privacy, security.

It would be a disaster.

Wise you are, but…
It would be a great dumpster fire

Generally speaking, they don’t tend to “cross-the-streams”. That said, it’s not entirely unheard of, just extremely rare. In the 13+ years I’ve been posting, I think I’ve only seen it once. That’s not to say it hasn’t happened more, just that I’ve only seen one player in that time mention that they received an in-game action for a forum vacay…but that was long ago.

It could just be that they can’t post any longer if they receive an in-game perma-ban and that’s why we don’t see it anymore too. I actually can’t say for certain. Today’s nonsense was definitely the first time I think I’ve had that thought though. I do hope their 2-week turned into something a little more creative.

I can’t even imagine how terrible these forums would be if the OP had their way.

@Bulakzebgor-faerlina

but when are the btags going to be added? has blizzard made a recent post to explain when they will be added?

You’re literally the same Dracthyr dude that kept boasting about how polite they are and then deleted their character when they finally realized that nobody wanted to talk to them anymore.

[Hwanwok-ysera (Hwanwok)]

@Bulakzebgor-faerlina

the OP already answered this question and i agree with that answer.

Ok, I’m going to focus on the confidence part.

“would greatly increase self-confidence”

I’m going to say it again, if you are not confident on what you post online then you probably should not post it, this isn’t like 2b2t where there is no moderator intervention on what you do on the server (unless you count other players as “moderator intervention”) or other forums where you can post freely.

@Bulakzebgor-faerlina

why do you think this?

I and others have been saying this and you choose to ignore on why anon posting is bad a couple of posts ago man, so let me explain again.

There are some people here on this site that make and use level 10 classic characters as a form of “anon” posting, some of those people can be good and chill, some people could be bad.

Most of us here focus on the bad part and I get it, I have seen level 10 classic characters hop in some threads with the intent to troll and bring the toxicity with them such as harassment, armory shaming and hate speech and get away from repercussions. I dont think giving the ability to anon post isn’t a great idea.

[Mungadai-area-52]

Translation- I like to sock puppet, harass, and troll, so i’m not going to engage because it would become more apparent than it already is that is what I seek to accomplish, but I will word my response in a way that makes you look aggressive, and that way I don’t have to answer.

[Sylvansong-wyrmrest-accord]

It’s Uulomul and Ddoobly back at it again after months and months have gone by. Some things really never change.

[Bulakzebgor-faerlina]

@Hwanwok-ysera

“would greatly increase self-confidence”

increasing the self-confidence of posters would be beneficial to the forums.

[Ardmccloud-frostmourne]

When you have to coarse me into a conversation or write my story for me, you have to ask who’s looking to step over the line here.

[Hwanwok-ysera (Hwanwok)]

At this point I’m repeating myself and I dont want to delve any further then that.

@Hwanwok-ysera

if you are not confident on what you post online then you probably should not post it, this isn’t like 2b2t where there is no moderator intervention on what you do on the server (unless you count other players as “moderator intervention”) or other forums where you can post freely.

everyone is free to post and i think that is a good thing for the forums

thank you for sharing your opinion, though, my wonderful friend

[Mungadai-area-52]

the word is coerce which no one did, you just choose to deflect, again, just like i said you would.

[Ardmccloud-frostmourne]

I don’t have to argue just for someone else to try defining my stances for me.

[Baridorielor-malfurion (Baridorielor)]

@Hwanwok-ysera

Surely there wont be some anon dropping the R word bombs on people because they disagree with him right?

That’s not even the worst part about that.

[Fuzzbutt-zuljin]

The worst part is the forum doesn’t actually censor that word if you type it either…

I get that it can also be for ignition timing but… when is THAT ever gonna come up in conversation around here??? Like, who just casually talks about ignition timing?

[Mungadai-area-52]

You are unwilling to defend your stance at all, which leads everyone to believe your stance is indefensible. You made a statement and when engaged stomped your feet and refused to elaborate, which is a well know troll tactic leading people to understandably believe that was your intention the entire time. And you continue to perpetuate that belief with every non-response you make. Good day.

[Sylvansong-wyrmrest-accord]

@Fuzzbutt-zuljin

What?

[Fuzzbutt-zuljin]

It’s why I don’t respond to him usually. If he won’t answer anything then I won’t ask and just talk about something else.

@Sylvansong-wyrmrest-accord

What?

I wish I was kidding… least it used to be that way. If they fixed it GOOD.
