I'm a CS major, computers is what I do and anyone who knows what they are doing knows how foolish it is to give out personal information, even names, to people freely online. The changes wouldn't have actually done anything as people would have just made another Battle.net accounts under a fake name, I was going to. Of course the people who actually do use a real name on the other hand are opening themselves up to all sorts of harass from the people who are idiots and trolls. People do stupid, petty, crap for little to no reason. Look at what happened to bishiok for example. The very small number of people who supported it are either ignorant of the internet or trolls. What is Ironic is just how immature your post is. At my job, that deals with people around the world...online...we have to give our first and last name. No issues at all when it comes to the angry customers who make threats and no compromising of any private information due to it. What I'm trying to say here is, if someone wants to get your identity that bad, they'll get it. RealID may make quicker, but it's still going to reach the end goal. Preventing your name from being shown is not going to stop someone who's crazy enough to kill or steal your identity from doing so. | ||

'Any attention is good attention' does not apply to Blizzard since they're already a well known company. A rise an awareness has to make up for the bad PR, and Blizzard can't expand awareness much more than it already had. Some people at Blizzard legitimately thought this was a good idea or they wouldn't have done it. That, combined with the many other poor decisions they've made, worries me most of all. How about : some people at Blizzard legitimately thought that this policy would fit in nicely with their new profit making shemes. I love the games Blizzard has made up to this point, but all the new measures in SC2 seem (at least partially) geared towards maximizing profits. This is completely unsurprising obviously and this nonsense about good companies vs bad companies is completely moronic. I hope they keep making good games in the future, but if they stop doing so, or impose sickening restraints on me as a gamer, I won't be sorry. I'll just buy other games. Blizzard fanboys are deluded idiots. | ||

that a great threat loomed just over the horizon, Team Liquid could only stare off into the vastness of space where it beheld a great void. Or perhaps a reflection of a hollow victory and of the trials yet to come... | ||
