This will be a popular glyph on the realm Proudmoore.
Well I'm sorry to say but people thinking that they are giving away their login details is mostly your fault for not explaining it properly.
You should have made it very clear that people are logging in to Blizzards servers, which then hand out a token that allows curse to query the users battle tag and the chars.
The way you put it "click the button to log in" is pretty ambiguous - this could also mean giving you the login data.
Now people who know about this stuff will assume that you're leveraging OAuth, but you can't really blame people for assuming the worst, when you're not explaining it properly.
I understand that this is a learning process for you as well, but there's no need for snide remarks - especially when those comments are (or should be) helping you in understanding how to better convey things to your users.

I'm pretty chilled and actually trying to help.
You see we have been telling people for years to not reuse their passwords and to not enter their credentials at random sites.
Now I would see responses like "I won't give away my login data" as a success in that regard. And I find it inappropriate to belittle those people now - after all they are just following the advice security people have given them over and over.
If you don't explain why it is ok to login in this case but not ok to login to their bank by following a random email link, you can't really expect them not to be upset about that request.
Being snide about it achieves only 2 things IMHO - either people learn they are the laughing stock when they are concerned about entering their credentials or they loose their trust in this site.
So if you explain these things properly on the main page and if needed in the comments it's a win-win - otherwise everyone looses, except those fake banking sites maybe
It's the weekend, so where is the announcement from Nostalrius?

As an authority on myself, I do. Again, it just doesn't include jokes about the holocaust/comparing companies to Auschwitz because they won't give a loud minority the freedom to play bootleg copies of their game.
And WoD had "no" content to people that can't/won't raid. Since I raid (and care about long-term rewards), I haven't had a problem with content in WoD.

Could we have some more options for what you're excited about? I'm mostly excited about new raids, the dynamic zone scaling and world quests, and Demonology spec revamp. The current options are all just "meh" to me. Heck, UI and gameplay changes have me more giddy then the artifacts.
