Why is Blizz Naming/Shaming in Delves

In this case yes. It is in-line with the evidence I have seen myself so I have no reason to doubt it.

why not?
if they’re unaltered screenshots taken ingame, it’s not exactly a “callout”

surely?

You won’t see your own gravestone, I think.

But, it’s a really cool feature in my opinion. I’ve seen one gravestone and that person immediately became famous and interesting, at least to me.

I like it.

Hey, if you want to be the one to test the waters, more power to you. I’m sure you can find plenty of examples to post on reddit.

Blizzard’s forum Code of Conduct includes limiting the posting of things that involve naming people from the game who are not posting in the thread.

It’s just enforced this way for consistency.

That last bit was very important to making yourself not sound sound silly. I’m glad you provided it.

If this is real, then that is hilarious.

I believe the screenshot I am looking at in guild discord showing that one guildy found another guildy’s gravestone from the night before when I was playing with the guildy in question lol.

I do believe that Blizzard made it known this feature was coming and would show you the graves of other, real, players.

Not sure where this theory that they are just randomly generated stuff came from tbh.

I am convinced that caving to and enabling peoples’ neuroses is not the best way to help them.

i don’t use reddit, and am trying to regain my tl3 here after an extended break.

that’s the first I’ve ever heard of that.
I guess policy must have changed while i was away (because surely you wouldn’t just make stuff up, would you?)

last i checked, the only restriction was posting about people in a derogatory manner.

simply posting a screenshot of ingame stuff, isn’t derogatory or defamatory.

edit: just checked, nothing has changed.
which rule is it breaking?

(good grief, i can’t even use internal links) :smile:

You’d just find something else very minimal to complain about after.

You just made this up cause you don’t like people making fun of you.

Good god, some people. You’re getting upset over nothing, and it’s people like you that will complain this feature out of the game, once again, predictably, making this game as boring as you hope it can be.

I’m seeing sock puppets in chat. Can’t wait for them to get us on battle tag.

Some weirdo follows Sendy around

Needless toxicity chasing people away. Definitely what WoW needs right now. Both from this bad system and these horrible responses.

What I mean is, it boils down to this technically being something they can action via the CoC.

Whether or not they will do so depends on a lot of things, including how much info you scrub out, the tone of the post, and most importantly whether or not it gets flagged by a significant number of people.

Hey I disagree with you on the subject of the thread.

But you’re right about the needless toxicity in chat and I stand with you on calling that out.

That makes these forums worse and all you doing it suck.

I make jokes and attack ideas and clown around. I fail sometimes at positively contributing. I lose my cool sometimes and get mean.

But I try to be good.

In this thread it would be flagged by people just to prove a point.

Oh, undoubtedly.

It falls under harassment, basically.

This doesn’t apply to the game. These rules are specific to the forums. Why OP has chosen to try to apply this to the game in the exact same vein, I do not understand.

There should be an anxiety accessibility button so anything done by anyone else or spawned by anyone else isn’t visible.

Then blizzard can continue doing things like this in their MMORPG. And people who play this game as an MMORPG instead of a single player RPG can experience new social features added to the game.

People like Sendryn above asking for a toggle is fine.

But it’s their dramatic approach that’s ridiculous. No one is quitting over this. :unamused:

I give everyone permission to screen shot any tombstones or ghosts of mine. And post it anywhere.
