Sad, but true. Since names are not unique, and character levels are dynamic,
how can you be sure the player you encounter with then name 'Jane' is the same
'Jane' who did you in on some prior adventure.
Be seeing you,

This person can change their character's name as many times as they want to, but their account number will stay the same. hope this helps, daphne, lvl 40 rogue on battle.net (3 dots) scoob, lvl 17 fighter (no dots) remove "spamsucks." in my email address to mail me.

No, it does not. If it was 'Jane3' vis-a-vis battle.net who slaughtered you,
you do not know that because the game only shows you 'Jane'. I do not believe
the '/whois' command is available to you within a game.
