Blizzard have decided that all WOW players will have to use their real names, thoughts?

never use the forums to start with.

its a good and bad idea

1. It will stop the trolling and flame wars some what, no hiding behind a lvl1 alt anymore
2. It puts your name up there on the internet, some poor GM trying to defend the change has been totally harassed because he told the forum his full real name. Within 5 mins of that they had his whole address, telephone number, the names of his family members and all of his previous addresses. They also found him on facebook which gave what he looked like and all of his favourite things.

Same sort of boat as boorz really, played wow for almost 3 years now and i've probably made like 4 posts on the wow forums tops.

at the end of the day i couldn't really care less if they did it or not. It just seems retarded from a business perspective. "ok yea we want to make the forum a social site for all users" problem is 90% of the users that actually post on the forums have said they hate it. The 90% of posters might well be 5% of the wow total population, but at the end of the day it is that 5% that you are targeting these changes at in the first place, and they hate it xD

Those that are pissed are those that have done some bad shit on there at some point. At least some of us are chilled about it.

Chickens!

But then again, shareholders probably got a bit displeased by all the outcry about the RealID on forums debacle. :p
