Please Deal With Sockpuppeting

Now if you’d done same race, class, transmog, and guild name but different realm, I’d be truly impressed.

How so?

Battletags has nothing to do with personal information.

The other Blizz forums already have Battletag ID.

For a price.

And just don’t take an unknown tag, put it on block.

I like your guild name.

Well, if that so I hope they try to that’s in the middle of a river here,lol.

ignoring and muting threads is a pretty powerful tool that we have, not every annoyance needs intervention by Blizzard…

I know but people have called me out for it before. What they don’t understand is my unhealthy addiction of having a new main every week lol.

No one will ever figure out my identity.

I am completely unidentifiable.

I don’t really care… I usually ignore most of the replies and don’t put any weight to who agrees with themselves lol

I could’ve sworn I had an adopted daughter named Salandria once.

That simply isn’t true. Our Moderation staff keeps an eye out for this behavior, and those verified to be sockpuppeting have been warned against the behavior and even penalized. Does it happen 100% of the time? No, but our staff does what it can as it is reported and verified.

Which was said by Vrakthis when a thread asking why sockpuppeting is able to happen on the WoW forums.

Okay? So to liven the forums up let’s allow bots, it will make them so alive. :dracthyr_blob_dance_animated:

What specific behaviors have they been warned about? How many were penalized, and what was the penalty? You clearly have access to internal data that I do not have.

And when you say “Our”, for whom are you speaking? Are you an employee? I think most forumgoers would use the word “their”.

It seems to me that there are a fair number of scripted forum accounts already, and nothing is done unless they violate rules.

Are we talking about the sock puppet show? I loved that as a child

I miss that :cry:

It was called Cogshanks. The forum rework killed it dead.

No, I’m talking about the part where I flagged you for extraneous content, since sockpuppet shows are clearly not what this post was about.

Why? Why do you care if someone is sock puppeting? Who is harmed by such activity?
