    Just because you can't think of a legitimate reason doesn't mean there isn't one.
    No one said anything about hiding from a LS.

    I'm unsure why people are being so offensive.. ready to attack I mean, because they do not understand this person.

    I once had reason, a very good reason to have my AH info in FFXI hidden. Harassment is a very good reason, for example.
    I was quite bothered when I discovered FFXIAH and that it was displaying all my buying and selling info to anyone who would look at it. I had to make an account to hide it. I'm glad I had the option, as if prevented some very possible stress.
    There are very good reasons to want character info (of all sorts) hidden, and it doesn't mean you're a bad person or some sort of drama starter.

    I'm not talking about AH info. There can be solid reasons to hide that. Levels though, no reason.

    At the moment there's no way for people to see what your retainers are selling by 'looking you up' except through the use of that yg software, which is not condoned by SE.

    The OP is asking to have his class levels concealed. I completely disagree and am against SE implementing any feature that would allow players to hide their class levels. It only serves to mislead fellow players.

    Also if someone is harassing you for whatever reason, blacklist them.

    (Thank you ^^)

    I know you weren't talking about the AH, that was my personal example and my bad experience. :3
    I did mean that though - he/she may have a good reason for wanting to hide level or something else that you couldn't think of.
    If you disagree against hiding it, that's just fine, your opinion and you probably have good reasons. ^^
    but again, he/she may actually have a good reason to hide. Just because we can't think of it doesn't mean it isn't possible.
    With my AH example.. many people couldn't understand that I had a good reason for wanting to hide it, most just assumed I had bad intentions and were suspicious of me. But the good reasons did exist.

    I have nothing really against showing our class and level on the forums, but others might.
    One thing that did bother me at first when it was implemented is people attacking and judging others based on their characters highest rank. It's just a silly reason, but a reason one might dislike it. There may be plenty of other valid reasons.
