    Forum Name Requirements - "Operation Who's that guy?"

    I'd like to remind everyone that when you sign on, the set of rules gives advice on the establishment of usernames. It further states, and always has, that if your username is NOT a name that you can be easily called by, that it is REQUIRED that you sign "A" name to be called with EACH post signature. This must be a real name, or something of significant value as a nick name, something that is a person reference, not an object. Certainly, there are a few non person names that might be acceptable, like Moose, you know Animal House type nicknames, that sort of thing.

    Merely putting it in your profile while better than nothing, is not what is required. We just want a name to call you buy, that's easy to find, and use.

    Please adhere to this guideline, thanks.

    P.S. We will allow some initials, for people that legitimately use their initials as their name. Like JR, PJ, or of course everyone's favorite (or not) GW.

    l8er,

        We'd like to welcome you in advance and encourage you to sign up.

        We do need to remind you of a tightening of our username policy. We've had a few violations recently where people are using dumber than dumb type names that make no sense, or have nothing in them that you can easily...
