Pretty much the dumbest thing they could have done.. They were thinking of implementing "real names" on forum posts along with their Real ID changes. Hilarity ensues:

Haha, yeah, I mean with this much "feedback" there's no way this change is going to go live. It better not Blizzard, for your own sake.

Well, the Blizzard we know now is pretty much Blizzard 2.0. The original SC, Diablo, WoW teams have had huge chunks of people leave for other companies or to start their own companies. The teams now, while they certainly inherited the tools to do things right, seem to be a little..."off".

Lulz I like how they say they're changing it on account of "discussions".

It's still scary that they thought real names were a good idea in the first place.

i see where they're coming from with the names shit, but really it'd just make trolls happier not the actual gamers. Either way dumb idea

What they SHOULD do is just let you be able to click the character or something, and it shows you a list of other character that player owns. I thought they did implement this at one point, but I guess not.

I never thought of that, it would be an amazing idea and at least keep the forums (a little) less retarded. I still don't like how everything's trying to be Facebook now though.
