Wow, what a great post. So much info in one spot. It can't be said that only "hardcore gamers" or "trolls" are concerned about this and the only ones voicing their opinions.It seems anyone with a brain recognizes the serious implications if Blizzard goes ahead and sets this precedent. | ||

But wouldn't it be more clean to just update the OP in this thread (In which this info has been posted anyway I think) rather than making a new topic? It seems like the 150 page thread is a better indication of people's thoughts already gives a much better place for discussion rather than opening up a new thread. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=134327¤tpage=148 | ||

You know what I think, it's all a publicity stunt to get the world talking about starcraft 2 (with an upcoming release shortly) and WoW end of the year? Sounds like free advertisement if you ask me on PR ist a disaster. they get publicity for wow and sc2 but only bad one. if you are a little company that nobody knows every PR is good. but if you are a huge one everyone knows bad PR can crush you. | ||

Can't really compare BP to this, BP oil spill is a world disaster, that could fuck us over in the long run if nothing happens. That's like saying the people at BP did the oil spill on purpose. | ||

Because they are so happy with the PR they get now Or Toyota with their failed engineering ... Most people sadly dont care about such things as RealID. I can't wait for the day when all the Battle.net friends will be your Facebook friends etc =). Imagine the marketing options and all the new means/exploits to earn money. | ||

Since S Korea is such a huge part of the Starcraft scene it would be impossible and quite fatal to tellS Koreans that they can no longer take part in using forums. man, alot of Koreans have same names, so posting your real name in there is not so important as in european/american countries. But privacy is still being abused, even if it makes you accept some terms and conditions to post. Anyways, you can always stop posting on there and join forums like this one. Thank you TEAMLIQUID for existing!! -i was mad when you admin tempbanned me but you are goodfellas | ||

And I would assume that Blizzard won't profit from this bad PR either. | ||

The only thing that can actually crush Blizzard is if people stop playing WoW and don't buy SC2 and D3. It's probably just the huge social experiment people are commenting around. So, they have a huge community, turning it into a facebook-like community is profitable and if it doesn't become that facebooky, could even be good for us in the long-run. So they're trying for that. Might be Activision whoring out on it as well. Bnet 2.0 is quite Activisionish. | ||
