Dang it, I was going to do that but had to go to a meeting. Well done sir.

make any sense to me.  But....whatever.

You know I've considered using my real name on here several times.  However, 
after seeing how a lot of the "masters" of this list treat the readers of the 
list, I'll never do it.  The "masters" find enjoyment in berating and 
personally attacking readers of the list.  I wouldn't put it past some or the 
"masters" to actually look somebody up and either A) call a list member's 
employer to complain, or B) personally attack (verbally) in real life over the 
phone, via snail mail, etc.

This list is still useful but there is a lot of unprofessionalism that goes on 
that has nothing to do with my 'cynicalgeek' email address not using my real 
name.

It's pretty easy to ignore a signature.  It's also funny, so I tend to give it 
a pass.  I've seen worse signatures with huge pictures, those are pretty 
objectionable.  The list members have come down hard on people with huge 
graphics and whatnot in their signature.  Is Mr Rankin's long?  Yeah, but it's 
text and it doesn't stand out and cry for my attention, either.

Turning this on its head.  If you expect the courtesy of Mr. Rankin trimming 
his signature,  why is it unreasonable for someone to ask you to use your real 
name?  Or at least use an alias that appears legitimate.

Community is built when people "know" who their peers are.

#1 I read nothing in the EULA about having to use my real first and last name.

#2 I shouldn't have said that the LISTSERV should munge the long signature, I 
should have said that list owners should gently ask users not to use signatures 
that are incredibly long and useless.

#3 I'm trying to make constructive suggestions that would help the community of 
this list...solutions that would cost members of the list NOTHING and improve 
the service of the list.

Equally, if it purged everyone that doesn't post with a cleartext real-world 
name, that would be a good thing also.

Personally I think if the LISTSERV would munge James Rankins' email signature 
on demand we would all be better off. ;)
