But that's the thing, all Arc is doing (simplyfying here) is logging your Character and Account name next to a number of DPS and a few other encounter stats. From those you cannot get any Data whatsoever of someones IRL persona except from what else you chose to publicly share. All i can see is a game identifier and a character name. If i chose to make my character name the same name as my IRL name that's my choice of putting my name publicly on display to that account. In all cases, if i can find your irl name from your GW2 profile it's always your fault.

Your standpoint is faulty here. The ArcDPS Tool processes publicly available data. Your Account and Charactername are part of that, so is the provided Combat Data.The E-Mail that is linked to an account is not publicly available or accessible therefore it is not a breach of privacy but only processing of publicly available data. Arena-Net is the only one that could link your account to the combat data and they are not the ones processing it. So no: none of these Elements aid in identifying you.Only associating your ingame Persona with a number that describes situational performance, which always should be taken with a grain of salt. The only exceptions being like these or close: You publicly link your E-Mail adress in a forum with the Account or Charactername next to itYou make your Accountname your emailadress.You make a character that contains your emailadress.
