RealID Privacy Concerns.

As it works right now, the new RealID system will provide:

- Your email address associated with B.Net (you must provide this so the other person can RealID Friend you).

- Your real name, first AND last. (including to Friends of Friends)

- Your in-game status anywhere on Battle.net. (including to Friends of Friends)

I have made my point here: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/th...468&sid=1#1535

As I hope you all will. While I feel I know some of you well enough to allow you access to this information, there's not only the real possibility that raiding guilds will require it, but also the fact that just a few small changes BEFORE it goes live (as to avoid a database programmer's nightmare) would satisfy simple common sense beyond just what's on that thread and open up RealID as a real social networking tool instead of the current, very limited way its implemented. Please don't let Blizzard make such a silly mistake!
