Character name can't be hidden.

This thread is so funny. The only people people who care that their characters name/server are displayed are those with something to hide.
The only thing that remains is what they are hiding, whether they're hiding from an e stalker, or hiding their incompetence by trying to remain anonymous as they say nothing of value or just have no understanding of how the game works and don't want it to come back to them in game.

"Only people with somethng to hide are worried about privacy"

That's a bulls**t argument. Always has been and always will be.

Privacy does not require justification.

When it's something sillly like a character's name in a game that thousands of people have the potential to see anyway, it does kind of require justification.

Go over to /v/ on 4chan, post a screenshot of your character without the name blacked out.

Note that this would not be a wise thing to do. Every horrible thing you've heard concerning 4chan is true.


There is a reason I keep all personal info hidden on the internet, even something as innocuous as a character name in an MMO. It's because anything can be used to track you and there are people out there that will ruin your life just for lulz.
