Yeah.... my good friend and I set this up today. It's very odd to see someone's real name... I don't know him as BoB XYZ, I know him as one of his game names. Silly feature, IMO. Not really sure I like my real name showing up anywhere, either. I can easily imagine an account getting cracked and then somehow the realid friends getting exploited in the process.... I give it 6 to 9 months befopre a news story arises about something like this.
Doing my best to get motivated for the WoW Headless Horseman mount hunt of 2013... so far failing. and now in 2018, let's see about those HH mounts! [Edit: Actually got an HH mount in 2018... on separate account 6. One to go! In 2019, my last BNet accout, the main one, got the HH mount. End of an era.]
I multibox because I have no time, have a life, have a job and[/or] money and have little patience for drama and temper tantrums. -- heffner

I don't understand what's so effing hard about ServerName.CharName for cross server tells. Fuck EQ could do it over 8-9yrs ago with even cross server private channels.
This REALID = retarded the next wave to come is WoWSpace on the armory. Personalize your own page with HTML centered around your character!!!!!!!!
Another massive complaint that I have is if I add some one to REALID they can see my other friends as well. Then the whole multi-boxing issue alone makes it annoying.
Things to make REALID worthwhile:
1) Allow me to choose which char is my "main" active char for all inc Real ID messages.
2) Allow me to choose what my RealID display name is.
3) Allow users to opt in/out if they wish to have their Name display in the Mutural Friends / Real ID Friends List. IE if you check no only people that you have agreed to being REALID friends with can ever see you. People who are friends of your friends will no longer see you.
4) Add ServerName.CharacterName chat functionality for all players. This way I can talk to people that are "WOW Friends", but not close enough to add to REALID.
5)Blizzard has access to our information why the hell do I need to give out my battle.net account? You should be able to add some one to a REALID by simply using their character name. SQL FAIL (Should be complaint #1)
Code:/whisper BlizzardHQ.Developers Chat System Fail.
