Gearscore and RealID

Q u o t e:
There are many rumours going around the forum at the moment regarding addons (specifically gearscore) disclosing peoples RealID in game. I would appreciate an official response about the truth or this rumour - is it something we can safely disregard?

The player base needs confirmation on this one way or another so that we can advise our guilds whether we'll be online to raid tonight or not. Thanks.

Please direct all questions and concerns regarding Real ID and first and last names on the forums, you can post here:

Q u o t e:
They need to stop deleting all the threads or we're going to assume the rumor is true and that's not good... whether it's true or not we need to know.

What you wish to believe is purely up to you, but there is no need to continually spam the same topic in multiple threads. The sticky post I have linked above is being read by several people in its entirety and is the place to post about any concerns relating to Real ID. =)

EDIT: To clarify
