Names/Nicknames/Screen Names

garyspk · #1 02-21-2008, 12:05 AM

To all MSF members,

This is a gentle reminder to be sure to use members' chosen screen names in posts, in chat, etc.

A lot of folks choose those names because they don't want their real names used out in the open for one reason or another. Please respect that.

I don't want this to sound preachy at all. And I don't think any disrespect has been meant. But just be sure to be careful about that. Some people are OK with having their real names mentioned (I'm one of those) and others are not.

Just a reminder from your friendly moderator...

Gary does have a point. Sorry about that. I'll try and do better next chat.

Did I miss something? When was this a problem?

I don't think there was a problem...just an observation from last night.
I will go ahead and admit that my real name is Jose Himenez..

Si

I've had 3 different people mention this concern to me during the past few days.

Once again, I don't think anyone is trying to intentionally start up any problems, just be aware that a lot of folks don't want their real name out for whatever reason.
