Quit whining, its a beta, they aren't entitled to make sure your beta tournaments run smoothly.


Huh, show me where they said that.

They did say that. I dotn have a link though.

I'm in... maybe they'll understand why not having a unique name is retarded.
Pretty imaginitive, huh?

That would only address the lack of unique names. Other IDs like ESPORTS can help communicate other issues (that are much worse than the lack of unique names).
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

i like the idea, but not the ESPORTS name. I dont think that name conveys what we want blizzard to hear. I doubt dustin is the one to blame, its the battle.net 2.0 team that needs to feel the fire for not listening to the community feedback. for that purpose, LISTENTOUS or FIXBNET i think better convey the message, but neither hits the sweetspot for me.

If our goal is to get them to add chat channels, fix the horribad map editor interface, be less controlling about custom maps, and add identifiers back, i think maybe something that criticizes Bnet, and at the same time if googled will direct it to a teamliquid thread which outlines the community's concerns would be cool. And wont come off as immature ZOMFGBNET SUXBALZ whinning.


esports just seems kind of vague and can be interpreted as a cheer, just like teamliquid could be.

alternatively, can also open a thread on battle.net with the title of ESPORTS or w/e name and place the concerns in there.

Just stick with ESPORTS, if we argue about what to name ourselves the effect will be lost as there will be like 5 or 6 different IDs people are naming themselves.

I will be ESPORTS.

ATTENTION
It's likely that they only temporarily removed the identifier to encourage the newly added facebook function for testing purposes.

i said this already but i think irony would be a good tool to use and something humorous like Casual, would be really good as 'blizzard always caters for casuals.'

Bisu 5 times in a row? 5-0 for me then!

I would laugh if blizzard just banned the nickname ESPORTS, in fact, I could see them doing that.

bump, going with ESPORTS.

The system wipe is completed apparantly, sorry for not keeping the thread up to date, but do tell your friends to do this!

Since the beta will end in three days, I guess I could do that.

Though, I fail to see how "ESPORTS" conveys the message we want Blizzard to hear. I'd be much more inclined to name myself NOCHATROOMS or FIXBNET.

Still, if everyone goes for ESPORTS, I'll go with that too.

Yea I thought we decided to go with WEWANTCHAT or something like that. What is the message in ESPORTS anyways?

I will name myself whatever is on the OP... ESPORTS is ok, but can't we have something funny?

SaladFap, Anonymous, or CactusFantastico (<- Kudos to the person who remembers where this is from) are my suggestions.

EDIT: after reading a few more posts, it seems like people have already gone for ESPORTS. Ah well, if there's a next time, those are my suggestions.
