Alright so I understand that you are trying to stop trolling, but why do we have to show our FULL name.
That's right, Name and Surname. Do you know that identity theft is growing more and more everyday? Doing this will be like steroids, accelerating the identity theft. I have a very common name, but if you google it, it comes up with everything related to me on the first page (Facebook, Myspace etc.)
Also, think about all the people under the age of 13, your really going to show a little kids name so he/she can be harrassed? I hope not.
I've been reading the forums lately and people say they will just leave your forums and go to a third-party site such as mmo-champion.com so I have devised a plan that would be a better way to:
1.) Stop trolling
2.) Keep Identity
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When you click on any of the posters names; It goes straight to their profile page!
This is where it could be perfectly integrated. When you click on someones name in the WoW, it will come up with their profile, showing all characters. You could click on their characters to see latest forums posts and such. You could also implement a feature that you could flag the account as a troll. So whenever that account posts something on the forums, you will see something that says TROLL in bright shiny letters.
It's just an idea I thought of, but hey it's a start.
