Hi Robert, Couple of months ago as you told about cryptic names of the forum users, we have introduced rules in our forum. I have also then informed users, that they have to change there name first. Users has changed their names. Even more I then took a look into almost every user's post to see, if he/she is using a "valid" name. Almost everybody, no I think even every forum user, which has send in the last months a post has used a non-cryptic, perfectly valid name.
OK, part of this users do use only the first name, but wht is wrong with that? Do you want to force users to use their frist and last name? Why if somebody do just want to stay anonymous, for whatever reasons? I think we should allow users to have some kind of free space. If they like to be anonymous and hide them self behind the name e.g. "Lilli" why not? Or do you want that they use "Lilli Li" (i.e. "Li" as last name)? I admit, that the "signal to noise" ration on the quality of the posts from the forum is just different then from the mailing list. As I stated before, mailing lists is for "old school" developers/users.
