    Is this not automatically given to private / retired members? :/

    I was sort of wondering this myself... sure seems so.

    It's not hard to fill out a short form of like 3 or 4 questions if you want access ;) This will remain an application thing for everyone regardless of rank.

    Obviously the staff are going to have access either way.

    I might send in an application after the sign-ups later tonight.

     

    Is there anything you'd recommend for a new account?

    What about our usernames, as is being harvested by the application process? Who will have access to those?

    Only the staff members (current ones) will have access to those, it's all private info so no one else can access it. If you wish to withhold your username, that's fine, but we need a good application as to why people want access, otherwise what's the point if you don't play?

    Regardless, storing a list of people's in-game usernames is asking for trouble.

     

    We have never, ever stored member's in-game details like this in our last 10 years operating (and over multiple supported games) and I still have yet to see a valid reason as to why you'd require it now. 

     

    ---

    Edit for clarification:

     

    I do agree that the rest of the application and some justification is definitely required, but I just disagree with requiring usernames. /shrug

    It's optional like I said, but the rest of the application NEEDS to be well thought out to justify applying.

    I think you make it clear that it's optional by adding it to the question title in the same way that has been done for the final question.

    I suppose for those that cannot read the info on the page, I should make it big and bright.

    :rolleyes: The last question also had an "(optional)" after it, so I thought you should be consistent. 

     

    I'm not interested in a childish argument with you, I'm just trying to make sure that the members here are as secure as they can be, and that involves not divulging any personal information to anyone. I'm sorry that you are mistaking that for pedantry and reacting by changing the application to obnoxiously bold red text.

     

    Thank you for changing the apps and making it crystal clear.  ;)
