The more I hang around forums like AZ, the more I realize the need for the screen names to have real names attached to them.

LOL!!!! I noticed how many people answered and agreed with you, and they signed their name. Their full name. And you didn't ;)

I agree with you Joey. I understand the idea not to use your real name as your screen name for security/privacy reasons. But, I also understand putting your name behind the screen name. It's a tough call.

Many of us who started on the internet, college intranet, military network, before it was the world wide internet didn't have screen names. We just used our real names. So, when for some reason we met up with each other, we knew each other by name. Today, I meet a lot of AZBers and I can't remember anyone's name.

I've got no answers, and didn't even sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Joey, I think I know where you're coming from. But some folks also like to preserve some privacy and/or anonymity. I'd rather rate somebody's credibility on what they say and how they say it.

A couple of people know who I am, but the last thing I'd want to be known as is some Internet know-it-all blowhard.

Travis,
I have met many AZers. Who knows maybe I have met one of the people who knows who you are.

Sometimes it is kind of hard to know what people are saying because you don't always get the inflection or tone that they would like to communicate.

Case in point is your last sentence.
I don't know if you are referring to ME, someone else or yourself. :-)

How would one become known as some Internet know-it-all-blowhard?

Nah, JoeyA, I prefer to think of the Crawfish as that annoying little thing that , once it gets a hold on you, doesn't let go. Gotta chuckle when I think of the times I've explained that one after being down 10 or 15 games and coming back.

Ten or 15 down and coming back. MAN, you have some staying power. :D

Cowardly attacks from behind a keyboard and screen name have always amused me. Goes along with alot of people not wanting to take responsibility for anything anymore.

If you want to expose yourself come to DCC an join the AZB room an wear your name tag. Then you can meet all the people that have insulted you or vice versa. I'll be there will you?

Hi, I'm Chuck Norris and I just wanted to say that if anyone argues with me on here, remember that I was the bad guy in a Bruce Lee movie once.

:D

I think most people know that my name is Nate :)

Dear Chuck,

I am a big fan of yours and hope you don't mind a little minor criticism: You need to smile a little more. :)

Glad to see you posting on AZ. BTW, that is a great nickname you have.

I don't know if this was a general remark, but both you and JoeyA were in the DCC room at the same time many times.

Fred <~~~ there at the same time
 
I don't see the harm in posting my real name. I've met a few people off of here in the "real" world. I include my first name in my signature, I just don't want to be confused with the pro golfer.

are you the real thing? is that really you? yeah you're that badass cheater that used some form of an rusty ironclaw. you're the one that caused Bruce Lee all of those scratches and may had comatosed him becoz of tetanus. :D

I also saw your recent movie appearance in DODGEBALL? You were the judge that sold-out the game in favor of that Vince Vaughn. Ben Stiller's team should had won that tournament. BOOOOOOOO !!! :D

This is stupid. It sounds like people are saying "you shouldn't be able to hide behind a nickname and say whatever you want on a forum without consequences".

Sure you should, it's America. Or at least the internet.

So what do you want their real name for? To look them up and find their house and kill them? File a lawsuit? Send them poop in the mail?

Between sane and civilized people, the worst punishment anyone should have to deal with for slinging shit online is to have it slung back at them online. You don't need their real name to do that. The only use I can see for having their real name is to do something to the other person that no decent person should want to bother with.
