Identity theft & real names (not a good idea)

After reading what blizzard posted about real names being used on the forums I have decided that i will no longer be playing a game that i like very very much, in 2000 I had my identity stolen and to this day i am still clearing up the pieces the Sacramento Tax Franchise board is the ones who told me about it and after waiting a few weeks for my three credit reports it was confirmed, I wont go into details but it was very ugly.

My point is if I "CAN NOT USE AN ALIAS" for my forum name or in the Battle.net then I wont be logging onto this game ever again, I do not wish to have my real name posted any where in the open. With a game that has so many hacked accounts hundreds if not thousands a day and you want us to have our real name show, that's really great the hackers only need log on to the forums briefly to get our name, this isn't going to sit well with many people in my shoes.

I put a lot of time into this game November 2004 and now all that is going down the drain if this real name thing happens on the forums.
