Perhaps this has been discussed before or there is a reason for not doing it, but wouldn't it be better to have your game account connected to your forum name?
I'd be interested in seeing people's guild names, level, and arena rank. This would provide a lot of context to posts and would even provide CG a lot of good data based on trends of who is saying what.
We could take it a step further and integrate at minimum a link from SWGOH.gg (or an official equivalent), but given that's an independent site I can see why not.

Other than that, it could be helpfull for sure. Advice could be more tailored to the situation a player is in so that you don't advice someone to farm baze if he's lvl 76 for example.
also, no more undercover trolling, not sure if that's a bad thing or a good thing. xD
Definitely a bad thing haha
Haha, at least you're honest. I would definitely add credibility to posts (or take it away too), but I think it's a good thing.
When you see someone complaining that content is too hard and then you see a level 82 player, rank 300+, you take the comment with a grain of salt or provide constructive advice on how to improve.
I have been trying to get in contact with my top 10 for weeks. Only found one so far. Their loss though, I was trying to share payouts, but until I hear back I'm just going to keep taking 1st every day.
tried searching your own IGN?
Why wouldn't a level 82 player that is rank 300+ be allowed to expose his point of view?
People here tend to forget that most of the playerbase isn't in the top 100 of their shard.
They also dismiss people who aren't 85 when in reality, the path to 85 is THE most important experience when it comes to players retention, which is a major aspect of the game.
I assume this describes you?
They still would have a point of view, but saying content is too hard when they aren't even a max level player doesn't make a lot of sense. There is a lot more credence coming from someone who is level 85 and ranks higher in arena.
Content should be targeted for those at the top and that ultimately lower level players work too.
I'm not even going to lie. I may have googled a few players .gg accounts. I have found at least one player who was having trouble with gw who shouldn't have. So my evil machinations have turned out to be positive things in some instances.
Did you miss the "or provide constructive advice on how to improve" part?
It's one thing for someone to come here and seek guidance. It's another thing for someone to come here and act like an end game player complaining about this and that when they're not even close to the level they claim they are.
This game is hard for up and coming players. It contains a lot of roadblocks, all of which many of us got through with little to no complaint AND with little to no help because we were going through it the same time as our peers.
To come on the forum and pass yourself off as someone on the same level as a lot of others is not cool at all.
Yeah. No luck. Even changed my ingame name to my Discord ID. No luck there either.
You won't see a linked game/forum account because if someone complained and then something happened to their account they would infer causality.
Btw what is your ign @Austin09370
Oh ok, thought you were a guy on my shard named "TB12" because of your pic.
Tom Brady is the man so I can't fault them. I have considered incorporating that into a IGN though, lol.
Unfortunately signature doesn't show on mobile.
Low post count = Inexperienced player.
This also is not always the case.
However, It wouldn't bother me if they changed it to this or not. I've received some great advice on these forums, shared some pretty terrible ideas too with hindsight and have been told as much as well.
Understand?
I will admit I tend to be an elitist at times. It shows in my more condescending tone than trash talking or whatnot. I would rather see their .gg account to know who I'm talking to and adjust accordingly than I would to say "git gud". But that's just me.
Probably looking for me @Mullato
