Blizzard To Require Real First and Last Names For Official Forums
An anonymous reader writes "Recently, Blizzard Entertainment implemented a Real ID feature for some of its current games and all of its future Battle.net-based games. Today, Blizzard announced that it intends to require usage of the real names of Battle.net posters for its StarCraft II forums before release, and for its World of Warcraft forums shortly before the release of World of Warcraft: Cataclysm. From the announcement: 'The first and most significant change is that in the near future, anyone posting or replying to a post on official Blizzard forums will be doing so using their Real ID — that is, their real-life first and last name — with the option to also display the name of their primary in-game character alongside it. These changes will go into effect on all StarCraft II forums with the launch of the new community site prior to the July 27 release of the game, with the World of Warcraft site and forums following suit near the launch of Cataclysm. Certain classic forums, including the classic Battle.net forums, will remain unchanged.'"
.. as if millions of trolls suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.
There is no real benefit to the game to post such information.
Eventually it WILL be required.
Then it will be time to leave World of Warcraft.
I already have the government, through treasonous works in the Health Care Bill, able to track my ATM purchases with the new Health Care Bill because the criminal arm of this treasonous government, namely the IRS wants to collect more taxes not owed to said treasonous government for themselves.
Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve commits treason on a daily basis ripping off little old ladies, pension plans and out to 3 generations not even born yet.
Usurpers and Destroyers they will be dealt with like all criminals of Liberty and Freedom in history.

Oh, I am pretty sure I know what the meaning of treason is.
It means when congress asks what you did with 12 Trillion dollars, you do not respond:
"No I won't tell you that."
Or how about passing bail out packages for the wealthy elite because they do not want to lose their wealth or power due to bad bets they made and make tax payers bail them out for trillions?
Oh I am pretty sure I know what treason is when our cities are rotting, people are living in tent cities and generations not even born yet are essentially debt slaves.
That is OK because once all of this corruption falls, everyone of them will be shot.
After we have a trial of course.
