don't throw stones in glass houses, it's actually embarassing.

Honestly you seem more like you wanna throw a hate boner at wow than actually listening to genuine feedback, get off your high horse and have a discussion or get out of the thread.
The stalking problem in this game is caused by the lodestone URLs showing your characters unique ID that never changes regardless of name changes, home world changes or even data centre changes. You'd have to make an entirely new character to get a new unique ID and the moment a stalker finds out its you, which they may do, then they'll be able to go again on the stalking.

The previous post was definitely just a hate boner against WoW though and not really relevant to the discussion. Square Enix or Blizzard aren't going to make everything, it's simply not feasible to provide everything but that doesn't mean the game client should be a free-for-all either.
