I use my real name of my account already, but if the Escapist wanted each of my posts to be tagged "Logan Nicks" instead of "2012 wont happen" I would be fine with that.

Although there's probably less people with my name than most >_>
It may not affect you right now, but someday someone is going to use this against you. Even if that isn't you. I'm all for giving out my real name in social sites that I have selected to tie into my life, (weather dating or networking) but when a ->game<- developer is trying to tie my real life to my player's persona... without any alternatives...are you the only --- in the village?
Well Matthew, Bewdley is technically a town.
I don't particularly care. Stalkers tend to go after the pretty girls, not the ugly blokes.Calderon0311 said:http://www.formspring.me/wrongspriteWrongSprite said:Yeah sure, I really don't care. Dafydd Miller. There. Have it.

This is why RealID is a problem. Right now it's just a forum, but intent never stands still, and sooner or later, it will affect everything. A right to privacy and the control of how we share our information is what's at stake here. It doesn't look like much, but the term "erosion of privacy" is exactly what we're experiencing.
