My point was that I don't want to, and shouldn't have to, go to umpteen bajillion different websites to learn something about a class. Some of the sticky posts on Blizzard host the best info on the web, being consolidations and distillations from all those other sites into one place I can go to learn what I need/want.
Blizzard demand that people use their real names when posting on their forums (WoW, SC2).

I've heard that other places have been doing this without too much of an issue. iRacing, for one.

does something even need to necessarily be against the law to be brought suit against?

Depends on how they implement it.

There are parental controls to keep kids off the forums, if that makes any difference. *NM*

I'm sure if I used the forums I'd be more concerned...

You should be concerned. Addons can also pick up your name in game from Real-ID *NM*
