[QUOTE="Rasyr, post: 1778046, member: 2855"] Just visit their forums and check the member list.... I swung by DTRPG this morning to check out what this week's freebie is going to be (I won't pay for DRM, but I am willing to put up with it on the freebies -- things I would be unlikely to purchase normally anyways) when I noticed a link for their forums. So I clicked and went to visit, and read all 3 or 4 messages posted on it. One of the messages was the Admin saying that he had set it up so that when folks log into the online store/front page of DTRPG, it automatically adds them to the forums as a registered user. (note: was not logged in, so I tested it and yes it does add you) Not a bad idea, at least not if I had been given a choice about it, been asked, or been given the option to opt out. To me, what is worse is the fact that you do not get to select a screen name. It automatically adds you using your full name. So much for any sort of confidentiality, huh? Thus, the forums' member list page has become a list of DTRPG customers, visible to anybody who wants to look. You do nto have to be a forum member to see this list! I am not happy about this at all. What is your opinion??\ [/QUOTE]
