Hi everyone, specifically forum managers!
I am new in forum once I have been doing my baby steps with OSG.
I have been trying to solve a problem I am facing within an application I'm
developing but since I couldn't find any solution I though it might be a good
opportunity to start my activity
I think there should be a new thread where new members can introduce
themselves. If there is any as such, I can't find it.

Hi you all.
This is directly to forum managers (Robert and son on).
I just arrived to this community, but I have my real data in here.
However, my real first name is often misspelled or read by foreigners
(Agostinho) so I got used to being known for a short abbreviation of my *real*
name,

The short name is Agos.
I would like to use it here too.
But will that be possible, whilst conforming to your forum rules?
Yes that's fine. The aim on the naming policy is to instill a
friendly discourse
Hi Agos,
We can change your name from Agostinho Silva to Agos Silva, if you like so.
However we can not just remove the last part of your name, because we should
stay fair in respect to other people. The main reason, why everybody is asked
to have both names, is that this forum is connected to
Hi Robert,
I don't agree with that. Maybe you remember the discussion half year ago about
using of the nicknames or first name parts only in the forum. The finally
decision was to force every user to have both parts of the name in his profile.
If user wished to have some kind of anonymity, he

Exactly, you got it Robert! :)
A bit of a misunderstood, but perhaps it was my fault.
I don't mind at all the use of my last name.
And I also don't mind having my

Hi,
why I can't submit a topic in general forum?

Hello dear forum users,
in order to establish a nice etiquette in our community, we have decided to
suspend user accounts which do not correspond to forum's rules. The main reason
is that a lot of forum users don't have valid real names specified. The problem
in that is, that your posts are
Does this apply to the mailing list or just the forum? I would like
to object to this if it applies to the mailing list. I don't specify
my full name for a very good reason. The type of work I am doing is
proprietary/sensitive and don't want any questions I ask, even though
I try to ask
Hi Ed,
as you can read in this Robert's thread:

it does apply to everybody, don't matter if you on the forum or on the mailing
list side! Otherwise forum users are discriminated and we wouldn't like to
discriminate users just because they
Hi ??
The key is that you adopt a consistent online personal that others can
relate it. Not adopting some form of human name is crap for everybody
else who interacts with you.
At personal level I find it obnoxious that people are not always
honest about who they are, but that's me. I do

You don't seem to have the threads on this topic. The names are key
to tracking who's saying what over time. If you can't do this then
you can properly hold a conservation. If you are in crowded room and

But how hard is it to make up a last name and keep it consistently as
your OSG persona... so that we can easily distinguish you from
potentially countless other Eds?
It seems like a relatively minor thing to me and it does make a big
difference in remembering who people are.

Don't let this slip into something childish, please.
If the main problem here is that it is expected of mailing list/forum
users to have some form of name by which they can be addressed I
personally couldn't give a hoot if it is their real full name, first
name only, a completely fake name, some

Ed is my name, not a nickname. If that is a problem... sorry, it is

If by civil you meant following the suggested rules of the mailing
list, why didn't you just say that. The word 'civil' means something
different, such as 'not rude' to most people I know.
