“魔兽世界”实名惹众怒引玩家骂声连连
24EN Editor's Note:Row as World of Warcraft gamers are forced to use their real names in forums Users of online game World of Warcraft have reacted furiously to plans by its developers to force them to post comments using their real names. Blizzard, the game's publisher, says the move is intended to stop the game's forums being used purely to argue. Thousands of gamers responded angrily to the planned changes within hours of the announcement taking place saying that the rule change. Many worry that their name being made public could affect their employment prospects or or lead to stalking in the real world. Others fear that using their real names will immediately put them at risk from hackers. One of the site's community managers, called Vaneras, posted a message explaining the reasons behind the changes. He said: 'Removing the veil of anonymity typical to online dialogue will contribute to a more positive forum environment, promote constructive conversations, and connect the Blizzard community in ways they haven't been connected before. ' Blizzard's new system - called Real ID - means that users will have to post under their real first and last name. |
