Not everyone has to agree with you.
No matter how uninformed you claim them to be.
I donât think they make changes to improve this forum, most changes are like adding random bars that donât go away, or changing the text boxes so theyâre impossible to read while typing on a phone, or adding random pop-ups that cover other buttons and the x button is behind the random bar that doesnât go away.

Decline or block actually.
I donât think we can, because their definition of âharassmentâ likely includes âsaying something to me that I donât likeâ, and the possibility of someone doing that is a feature of an open forum.
i mean, its the same with people not wanting to deal with alt hopping or ignoring ppl. its annoying.
i dont wanna deal with an annoyance. itâs alright if you dont understand, thats just my stance on it.
sorry i dont agree w/ full tags but i agree with alternatives.

Honestly, I donât care. So long as itâs unique identifier that cannot be obfuscated and ensures you canât hide yourself on the forum, then it really doesnât matter. It could be a btag, it could be a new account name we all get to create just for the forum. It amounts to the same thing.
Take this guy for example:
The above is classic example of a troll poster using a 1 post throwaway character in order to attempt to bait me. If this person was forced to use the same username everywhere, they would never have posted such obvious troll bait.

Well, everything here needs to be account wide in some fashion. I donât care how as long as I donât lose the ability to post on my actual character.
Thatâs ok Ard, I donât really care if you donât agree with me. But Iâm not the one making up on how things works, Blizzard is.

I just meant the specific scenario of âa bot creating a ton of extra accounts to spam the same specific target btag and overwhelm them with friend requestsâ

So long as there is a âOne and Doneâ permanent account ban policy for anyone profile shaming another player, Iâd be fine with it.

Why do you feel this would create profile shaming a forum esport?
Can you define âprofile shamingâ in such a way that a perm account ban would be justified? Especially in respect to other forum violations that do not have perm account bans attached to them.
Further more. Would you support âone and doneâ permanent account ban policies for people making âexpert opinionsâ on content they have not done?
Would you support permanent account ban policies for making widespread disparaging remarks against people that play the game at a higher level? Or just more often?

I highly doubt that actually happened, and suggest that a known unreliable narrator is being an unreliable narrator.
Naming and Shaming, or as you put it, profile shaming, or as they technically are called, âCall Outsâ are against the rules. I donât agree that they should be permanently banned if someone names and shames, but it depends on the severity of the post to what sort of punishment a person may get.
Well they must think things are fine since they have no input themselves.
That is based on your own opinion, and not on actual fact. We do not know what is happening behind closed doors. We do not know what is happening at Blizzard or Discourse.

I would not be surprised, but I was giving the benefit of the doubt. That even if we say this did happen, its such a rare event it probably happened to only a handful of people in WoWâs entire history. And even then, it could easily be stopped.
So your thought process is to never suggest any changes to the game or forums, ever? Unless Blizzard specifically asks for your advice?
Will you hold to that practice?
We got Plundestorm and youâre convinced they listen to us at all?
There already is the option to disable bnet friends in account settings, if youâre really worried about such an outlandish scenerio.
So um⊠what did I miss?
