Edit: Blizzard have recently announced that at this time real names will not be used in forums
...Today, we wanted to give you a heads up about our plans for Real ID on our official forums...
This is a very bad move Blizzard. As the very large and growing thread suggests, this is not popular with a vocal segment of the forum readers. I also disagree with it. There are other ways to control trolls.
I have no problems with a common in-game identification. All of my toons are foo (foolich, foosecond, foobarfoo, notfoo etc). My vent id is foo. I do not use real-id, and will not until I am able to use an alias.
I have added my disagreement to the current forums (as only the new forums will display real id). I will be lodging a ticket in-game as well.
To complain to ESRB as in my opinion this breaches privacy, go to https://www.esrb.org/about/contact.jsp

Due to the blog mostly being inactive and the only comments recently being anonymous spam; I have restricted comments to "Registered Users"; hat includes anything google recognises as an account (google, openId, wordpress etc). I am still (mostly) active on foo-eve.blogspot.com
Blogger comments supports basic html. You can make a link 'clicky' by <a href="http://yoursite/yourpage">yoursite/yourpage</a>
Disagreements are welcome - especially on speculative posts. I love a great disagreement.
I have a comment moderation policy (see the pages at the top)
