I guess to many people canceled their accounts and SC2 pre orders so they had to reconsider? They don't say they were wrong by trying to do this only that they had to basically cave under the pressure of so many lost accounts.

Aye, money talks I'd imagine.

I did, though it was the day the info was released and before I knew about it. I had my other reasons.

I did as well (My SC2 pre-order). Blizzard didn't have info about this though: our pre-orders would have been through retailers like ebgames or best buy,

there would be a fair amount of time between me calling up and cancelling and somebody in a position of power at one of those shops to inform blizzard.

I think the instant and overwhelming negative response probably had a lot more to do with the change of position.

Agreed. I doubt it had much to do with the probably relatively very small amounts of cancelled preorders.

Basically, they just took the path of least resistance. The people that were for it aren't really affected and the people that were against it get to sleep again at night knowing their precious name is safe.

I need help, I was trying out a new UI, and reverted to my old one. But now Bartender 4 won't display all bars. The bars in question are both enabled and viewable middle of the screen when 'unlocked' (aka moveable and green overlay) but when I lock the bars - they disappear.

Hello, my name is Lucas Gomez Estevez, I am 21 years old, I live in Heredia, Costa Rica and I go to Universidad Latina. I would give you my old USA address but I don't live there anymore, so it's not worth it.

I'm scared now, internet killerz will killz me nowz.

Your about a week late to the party.

It may seem funny... But think about it for a second, okay?

And then in 6 months time 'Anyone in your guild can see your real name' and then 6 months later 'Your player Avatars are now your real name'.

It started with a Friends list. People you added to your friends list could see your real name. Then anyone on your friends friend list can see your name, now anyone on the forum can see your real name. What's next?

You need to look at the big picture.

Only people who you have given your email too get to see your name. Just adding to friends list does not grant you their name. This is a paranoid attitude and to leave before anything of the kind is even talked about is over the top.

I hope we can all forget about this Real ID nonsense someday and get back to good ol' WoW. It's nothing more than a overblown attempt to draw in teens, tweens and "twits" (i.e. Twitter users). That, and the inclusion of Facebook pretty much makes it dead obvious. I guess it's cool they're trying to rake in more players, but they're going about it all wrong. Pretty soon, WoW will just be a buzzword instead of an actual game.

I find Real ID pretty useful since I actually have real friends on WoW that aren't necessarily on my realm/faction.

going to re-register later,

I'm still on my 1st character level 55 or something, human worrior.. can anyone recommend any good add-ons? what was that map add-on that tells you where to go next so it's easy to find quests n stuff?

TomTom is a GPS style addon that will put an arrow for you to follow on your screen. As for quest helpers, some people use QuestHelper, some use Carbonite, I used to use QuestGuru.

    • Dead by Daylight, Two Point Museum, and more join Xbox Free Play Days for the weekend by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There is a brand-new Free Play Days offer available to Xbox players, giving them a chance to try out a new selection of games over the weekend. Microsoft's latest promotion brings some high-profile titles, including the sports title PGA TOUR 2K25 and the racing sim Assetto Corsa. Almost all the games being offered this time require an Xbox Game Pass subscription, with only one title being available for all players. Starting with the fully free-to-play section, Dead by Daylight is populating it solo. This asymmetric survival horror title should be the most familiar to most gamers, considering its age. The multiplayer four-versus-one asymmetric survival horror game has you assuming the roles of survivors or the killer to see who can come out on top. This Dead by Daylight offer will be available to play until Monday, June 22, giving you an extra day of play compared to the remainder of the Free Play Days titles. Meanwhile, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and Essential members can now try out the well-received tycoon game Two Point Museum, the circuit racing sim Assetto Corsa, as well as 2K's golf sim experience that gives players a career to develop alongside real-world pros and courses. Here are the announced games and the platforms they are available to play on: PGA TOUR 2K25 (Xbox Series X|S) Two Point Museum (Xbox Series X|S) Assetto Corsa (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) Dead by Daylight (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) To easily find the titles on Xbox consoles, first head to the Store, and then in the sidebar, find the Home section. In there, open the Subscriptions tab. All the games from the Free Play Days collection will show up in this section for quick access. Apart from Dead by Daylight's offer, this week's Free Play Days promotions will end on Sunday, June 21, at 11:59 pm PT.
