Real Friend ID

Ok, since google is useless, I figured I’d ask here. When I whisper my friend, why does it show up as “To [2]” instead of “To [name]”? If it makes a difference, I was linking him a quest

Do you have the add-on prat? it will do that, if you go into the configuration, you can get rid of the abbreviated names.

good thinking, but I don’t. My addons are questie, deathlog, ECS, NIT, Rested guide, lfg board, details, leatrix plus, plater, auctionator, DBM and Bagnon.

So ok, think I was confused by you putting the [2] are you saying it shows his real id instead of his character name? Not sure then.

Sorry, I may not have been clear. So when I whisper my friend to his battle.net ID, it’ll say “To [Real Name]:” in blue like normal. But sometimes, I’ll send something and instead of it saying “To [Real Name]:”, it’ll say “To [2]:”.

I should’ve taken a screenshot earlier
