Linking Character Data to Forum Profiles?

[Darkshade]

You can still click them again to "blacken/darken" them to hide them from your profile. Just did so with my friends character on my account.

Click Profile Name > Characters = All Characters on the account listed. No hiding at all. Good job SE.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic, but yes good job SE. Now people can't use mules to stay anonymous.

EDIT:

Well shoot, that's lame.

Aw seriously? That seems kinda pointless then to bother showing any at all.

You have to leave at least one character visible, but it does let you hide your alts (or use an alt and hide your main).

LOL... 1. It's kind of pointless, 2. It's ugly as hell.... ><

I liked the changes...but i'm annoyed that even after linking the character i have this lameass avatar instead of my own character :/

If they hadn't my character image would be a thing...but heck they had it at lodestone since like ever...

I am a little disappointed in the way this linking data appears to be, but for now i would love to see further adjustment to it..

~_~

I agree...i was hoping something more like these enjin sigs...but its that thing...the major problem is to implement it...once its live adjusting is much easier! ^^

Yes... SE is such a newbie when it comes to forums.

With the character name, world, and lodestone information, I can stalk practically anyone not on an alt. Sad...SE is going to get sued if it's not careful.

Good one SE! Next time I find a victim who's close to me, and lives alone, all I need to do is map his play schedule and act accordingly.

I see no real problem about this tho...most people wanted others to know who they are ingame anyway...at least 70% of the users have some kind of ID sig.

Now we need something similar to POL site so we can see gear too ^^ i liked that feature alot ^^

But yeah...would be wise of them popping an update at privacy part of ToS just in case since they turning public part of players' private info...better safe than sorry. ^^:

As a web programmer in the past I don't see what's so hard getting the images from your character into these forums... your character data, image is all linked from the game to lodestone, lodestone probably already has the data in some type of database such as MySQL or w/e... Some stuff really makes me wonder what the hell are the devs (in this case the web devs) are doing... Unless this forum's coding requires new features to be added as plugin's... still don't think it would be too hard...

It's not the main problem right now so I really don't care atm; too bad it doesn't show ALL your character info, mules everything... wanted to see how the JP trolls would of reacted on the forum lol. They would of probably screamed "I'm Melting!!, melting... melting..." like the witch from wizard of Oz...

Well in a place like NA and EU, it's less a problem, but in JP...well...let's just say physical retribution can happen especially when anyone is a couple of hours away..JPs should be scared of more then just "melting".

Lodestone is giving way too much information at this point, it's borderline dangerous.
