Not gonna happen, sorry. Far too many problems with us giving out that sort of information.

Even if it's only opt-in?

Wouldn't those be the same security problems that happen when anyone posts on the forums?

I'm assuming that the problems are security ones, at least.

Definitely NOT interested in this, even if it is made opt-in only. I don't think it adds anything to the game that isn't already there. You can put a URL or an IM in your profile. I suppose if you wanted to, you could put your play.net account in your quote, so feel free.

Not sure why this would be wanted, but I'm also a person with account and character name the same.

No, because players can choose to post without signing their name.

Even if it's opt-in, I don't see this being an option. Plenty of other things I'd rather Turmis put into Profile besides this.

Ah, I thought it was a general "don't share the account names to avoid getting hacked" type thing.

>>Plenty of other things I'd rather Turmis put into Profile besides this.

Fair enough :)

Personally, I'd like location to automatically update.
