Remove names from combat news

[HachiRoku]

Please swap names to danish player sank russian player near aves.  I like no names in open sea and combat news gives to much away

I prefer names to be shown, but i'm pirate and i like my name being called out in Combat news and open world!

I would shut down global as well..wouldnt bother @HachiRoku because he's usually banned anyway

I believe names were added to keep people honest.  We had alt farming galore when things were more anonymous

[Macjimm]

I really like the names being used.  It's great.  

Someone was sunk or captured somewhere by someone ... really isn't much news.  But it's better than nothing.

I would okay with it being random.  Sometimes they are shown, sometimes not.  Fog of war kind of thing.

It's definitely a nice feature to see the name of the player who won. It allows for boasting, but also gives information on where to find some fights. Removing it would mean less action.

But then how will people know how awesome I am?

I think somebody is afraid his targets won't come out.
