Me and several guildmates had this happen a while ago when the logins were acting weird. Those that actually got in could see their own email addresses (or parts of them) in the guild interface.

I don’t think anyone’s privacy was compromised as everyone said they could only see their own address, but it was still creepy.

It’s almost like a part of the login process was being skipped completely; two players also said they never got a character select screen and immediately loaded onto a random character.

I can confirm that while you can see your email address, no one else can. This is a bug we’re aware of and working on, but your account security has not been compromised.

That’s weird then. I saw this happen to my account a while ago after a disconnect. It startled me, and I asked my guildmates what my account name in the guild roster was. Some said it was my actual account name, others told me my entire e-mail address, which none of them could possibly have known. And I am sure of this. We’re talking Norwegians and Slovenians knowing the internal handle of my (German) university e-mail address, which I use only for university matters — and GW.

If it is still happening, get screenshots from the other players that can see your email address and add them to your own support ticket (or create one if you don’t have one yet).
