I am happy to share all sorts of WoW info though about my character and my personal interests! I think that was very kind of your dog to let him use his name :)Navimiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08504557372435466448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9139205590317840868.post-11225799817299174432011-12-24T10:30:33.372+11:002011-12-24T10:30:33.372+11:00Yes, it would have been a lot better had they star...Yes, it would have been a lot better had they started with Battletags. I have a ugh, very distinctive rl name, doubt if there are many of me so I didn't want to use realID in it's current form.<br /><br />But I find it strange that someone got upset that you viewed their picture on Facebook, I mean if you put something on the net it can't very well be considered private anymore.<br /><br />My Facebook page is in my dog's name, with his picture, he said he didn't mind, lol.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9139205590317840868.post-68461513886797362782011-12-23T06:33:04.542+11:002011-12-23T06:33:04.542+11:00@Erinys - I wish Battletags was how realID had alw...@Erinys - I wish Battletags was how realID had always been.

...The only person who has my realID is my husband.<br /><br />After my very first GM stalked me online (he used to read my PMs to other guildmembers on our forums and used the email address I registered with to find out my real name amongst other things), I've become a bit cagey about handing out too many personal details. <br /><br />Although, my photo is on my blog (it's not on the front page though so not sure how many people see it), it's also been on my old guild forums (different GM)and I've told a few people my real first name so they could probably find me if they really really wanted too. <br /><br />I think battletags are a great idea and I'm glad that Blizzard are implementing them. <br /><br />Not sure I'd have a hissy fit about someone discovering information I'd posted on the net though. If you don't want anyone to know what you look like unless they meet you face to face, don't post photographs.Erinyshttp://harpysnest.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
