Yeah, providing gold farming companies and spammers with our character names is really useful, thanks for that.

I realise that you don't control where that information ends up, and that it can be acquired elsewhere quite easily, it doesn't stop the fact that it's what you're doing and you contribute. So while it may seem useful to certain people, I'm pretty sure most players can do without it
