By making a bunch of smurf accounts, it would totally destroy the ladder system, imagine if HuK were to make 10 smurfs accounts all in grand master, or high master etc. | ||

The Clantag system should be free every like 3 months and paid for an earlier change, this would prevent an abuse of the Clantag, but gives u kind of a freedom if you change your clan. | ||

what abuse can come from this??? so what if someone changes there name after every game? How does this affect anyone else? It might make things confusing on the ladder.. but who cares? I never understood how "preventing abuse" was an acceptable excuse on making people pay to change there name in wow. | ||

The blue post may not say much beyond the usual "we're working on it" but it does give a pretty different message than what the OP is saying. | ||

Because my personal name is fake but now I want the world to know my real name. Open a ticket on battle.net they will almost always change this as long as you can prove you are the original purchaser of the account.... i.e. if your fake name is obviously fake or if you can provide credit card information for the card attached to the account... This is not something that you have to pay for *yet* :-p~ gl man | ||

Serioulsy, with those new economics models, there are so many functionalities that should be packed in the game as a service, and yet, we have just the minimum-required. I understand that every little service is now considered as an option, and most of the time, a costing one. But seriously, WC3 had clan tag and matchmaking, sc1 had better network platform with large chat room, infinite nick change and it's not hard to implement. I feel like we're fooled with the economic approach of blizzard, and many others are taking. A good platform should have mandatory services packed in it like chat, clan tag, matchmaking, group. If you want a "waouuuh" skin for your marine, it's ok to pay, but not to have some fundametal functionalities like that. imo it's like , ok I want to buy a car, i go to my carseller and see this beautiful car parked just right here, and it costs 10k. I buy it but oh well, no brakes, no steering-wheel, you know ... it's an option ! And you have to put 3k more on the table to get these usual things on your brand new car. It's just weird in my books. God, even the Counter Strike Network was better than the Call of Duty one. What the fuck is that... Ok I stop ranting but i really hope this problem will be one day seriously considered by the video game industry. | ||
