Suppose I find someone's profile on battle.net, for example:
http://eu.battle.net/sc2/en/profile/817007/1/emprOutSide

Is there a way to get this player's character code? (so I could add him as a friend or whatever)

To add manually, they need to give you their code. If you're in a lobby with them, you can right click their name and add. If you just finished laddering against them, you can click on their name in the score board and click add friend. You can also go back to your match history and do this.

Thanks - perhaps a stupid question, but where exactly?

(e.g. if I search on a guy named "EyeTurnRed", I find exactly one hit: http://sc2ranks.com/eu/1011601/EyeTurnRed but what's his character code?)

Sorry man, I must be retarded or something, but I really don't see it

For example if I search on "Taylor", I get these results:
http://sc2ranks.com/search/contains/eu/Taylor

Where or how exactly do I get a character code from there??

Blizzard disabled that. You can no longer find character codes anywhere.

umm in the top 200 you can click on the names and the players character profile will pop up so not making any sense to me.

I actually found a way to find someones code PM me if you wanna find out ... no joke hey its awesome

EDIT: hold that thought they must have changed it this way as well

just to make it clearer what i used to do , not 4 days ago, was search on Google:

"nickname" starcraft 2 profile

then click on the battle.net link

and then click on view posts and it would search battle.net "nickname"#"friendcode"

and thats it

I can find player profiles, no problem. I just can't find their character code, which I'd need to add someone as a friend.

But after not including any search feature on bnet, it appears Blizzard has made even this feature impossible

I like it that its private. But there should be a way on Battle.net do active if you want your char code yo be shown. Else you just have it not activated
