Blizzard demand that people use their real names when posting on their forums (WoW, SC2). Werthead - 08/07/2010 12:20:07 AM 1008 Views
I don't know how much to blame Blizzard BlackAdder - 08/07/2010 12:43:08 AM 625 Views
It's not 100% that this is the reason. Werthead - 08/07/2010 12:58:20 AM 819 Views
or, honestly... LadyLorraine - 08/07/2010 02:18:24 AM 671 Views
Yeah, that'll work. I hope Blizzard enjoys lawsuits. *NM* Ghavrel - 08/07/2010 01:08:58 AM 312 Views
I've heard that other places have been doing this without too much of an issue. iRacing, for one. Aemon - 08/07/2010 02:34:49 AM 663 Views
Why should there be lawsuits? Nate - 08/07/2010 03:46:11 AM 616 Views
does something even need to necessarily be against the law to be brought suit against? LadyLorraine - 08/07/2010 04:07:15 AM 547 Views
I suppose if people want to waste their money ... *NM* Nate - 08/07/2010 04:20:20 AM 298 Views
Depends on how they implement it. Ghavrel - 08/07/2010 08:54:31 PM 623 Views
There are parental controls to keep kids off the forums, if that makes any difference. *NM* Aemon - 08/07/2010 09:22:45 PM 310 Views
Probably does. Still, a 17 year old is technically a minor. Ghavrel - 08/07/2010 10:25:11 PM 642 Views
Isn't that also much easier when they know which county he lives in? Kotagg - 08/07/2010 02:30:06 AM 660 Views
It depends. Nate - 08/07/2010 03:52:17 AM 618 Views
Oh well, there are thousands of people with my exact name, so I'm coo then. *NM* Kotagg - 08/07/2010 04:27:31 AM 392 Views
I wonder how this works with prepaid time cards? Aemon - 08/07/2010 02:48:17 AM 754 Views
Hmm. Nate - 08/07/2010 04:03:59 AM 700 Views
Yup, looks like you're right. Aemon - 08/07/2010 05:12:36 AM 651 Views
I'm sure if I used the forums I'd be more concerned... LadyLorraine - 08/07/2010 02:59:48 AM 649 Views
You should be concerned. Addons can also pick up your name in game from Real-ID *NM* Wibble - 08/07/2010 09:23:57 PM 330 Views
I can understand why they're doing it. Variant - 08/07/2010 11:08:52 AM 651 Views
Exactly. As if this were a bigger identity threat than Facebook... *NM* Zalis - 08/07/2010 02:46:18 PM 290 Views
In some ways, it is. Aemon - 08/07/2010 04:40:22 PM 570 Views
Actually ... Nate - 08/07/2010 04:51:50 PM 634 Views
And *gasp* what if you did something to make someone mad on the "real life" server? Zalis - 08/07/2010 05:13:57 PM 600 Views
I think you meant Aemon's reply LadyLorraine - 08/07/2010 05:19:55 PM 631 Views
Yeah, you're right. Aemon's. *NM* Zalis - 08/07/2010 11:09:29 PM 302 Views
Facebook is a free service where you can control your privacy settings Wibble - 08/07/2010 09:27:33 PM 604 Views
Guess I just found another good reason not to waste my time/life/money playing WoW. Zalis - 08/07/2010 11:14:27 PM 744 Views
Joining Facebook is also completely voluntary, as is posting on the forums is completely voluntary. Variant - 09/07/2010 12:13:51 AM 579 Views
Battle.Net is not voluntary Wibble - 09/07/2010 06:20:55 PM 663 Views
Posting on the Battle.net forum is voluntary, as is the facebook feature. Variant - 09/07/2010 11:31:10 PM 1295 Views
Why do people feel this desperate need to defend blizz fuckups? Wibble - 09/07/2010 11:49:57 PM 670 Views
Forums are bad for you anyway. Didn't you hear? *NM* Zalis - 10/07/2010 01:35:13 PM 301 Views
Re: Blizzard demand that people use their real names when posting on their forums (WoW, SC2). Macharius - 08/07/2010 02:47:02 PM 604 Views
mmo-champion might be a good place to look? *NM* LadyLorraine - 08/07/2010 03:07:51 PM 319 Views
Re: mmo-champion might be a good place to look? Macharius - 09/07/2010 05:23:43 PM 683 Views
then just read and don't post. *NM* LadyLorraine - 09/07/2010 09:27:36 PM 298 Views
I'll be cancelling my subscription if this goes ahead on 27th *NM* Wibble - 08/07/2010 09:24:29 PM 319 Views
Wouldn't it be easier to just not post on the forum? Nate - 09/07/2010 05:13:46 AM 559 Views
Also: I'm pretty sure that this is related to Blizz's social networking/facebok integration push lord-of-shadow - 09/07/2010 01:26:36 PM 678 Views
oO why don't they just let themselves be a game. LadyLorraine - 09/07/2010 01:43:40 PM 616 Views
Oh come on, you know the answer to that. Aemon - 09/07/2010 02:57:24 PM 656 Views
The plan has now been scrapped. Nate - 09/07/2010 07:03:52 PM 699 Views
Beat me to it! *NM* Macharius - 09/07/2010 08:11:38 PM 304 Views
Me too. Nate's quick as lightning. Aemon - 09/07/2010 08:34:21 PM 587 Views
Not surprising. That quickly and violently blew up in their faces. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 10/07/2010 12:01:32 AM 343 Views
straight from the horse's mouth *NM* BlackAdder - 10/07/2010 03:12:53 PM 386 Views
