Right now they can make up to 50 inappropriate names to post with anyway. That’s per WoW account and you can have 8 of those under a single battle.net.

A BattleTag that violates policy would be changed, if reported and reviewed.

Well, they can do that with character names which is technically much worse since they can make 50 per account.
I support BattleTags being added supplementally. We get to keep our characters, misbehavior is notably prevented, sockpuppets and trolls are far more easily detectable, and moderation becomes easier. Everyone wins.

Yeah, they do that anyway with char names so it just gets flagged.
Some have expressed concern though that they have a tag that has real info in it or something they are not comfy with.
We all get one free Btag change, and in the past they have offered another to those who used it so they could fix things after a game change (OW forums). If Blizz went to Btag (pretty please!!!) then I would hope everyone would have a tag change so they can pick something they are comfy with and appropriate.
The character would not be gone, just used as an avatar and trust levels, flags, likes, post history would be at the Bnet level and Bnet tag would show as well. Just like all the other Blizzard forums.

I received a response to my ticket. Moderators took action (and couldn’t specify what it was, obviously) and stated that they are aware of the problems I raised with people using alts for nefarious purposes, and are looking into it. I lost my ability to post GIFs >:O but I would like to thank the moderation team for acknowledging the problem… since I forgot to do it in the ticket feedback.

Sounds great. Should cut down some false flag reporting. It will save the sanity of your poor moderators as well.
