Should people be legally obliged to use their real name on the internet?

[Alice Purjorick]

I'm more than happy as long as others do to...
So let's go

You know mine. I told you on Amazon but here we go again

We are waiting for you Davel, as you agreed with John.

I already know from experience on here, that certain parties, a matter which has been referred to Admin, have tried to identify me and where I live, from my name.

You have already identified me and done some research into my background....and made comments on here ....so I find what you are saying strange

[John]

No personal disputes please. Duty mods are free to delete any post considered inappropriate.TY

Hi Mrs Ayers....I believe I'm the only person in the UK with my  name....how unique

[slartibartfast]

I would be quite happy if people used the same name across fora, it would give you a clue as to their mindset and allow better discussion.

Not really. There's always an idiot who will clone you.

Keeping to a single identity per forum would be a start.

Only people with real integrity would abide by that rule, Jassi.

No davel. .

I did not identify you.

You made that error yourself on Amazon and other people stated they 'identified' you by information you left on an Amazon account, and that was your responsibility. You cannot obtain personal info from Amazon,. unless a person does that themselves by leaving it on there.

Is that with a "sh" or a "ch" in the middle?

You may remember there was some sort of glitch on Amazon that revealed personal details that are normally not shown...you took those details and did some research into my background...no problem

No davel.

It was not me and you know that.

I have no way of knowing if it is really you and I really do not care.

P.S. Amazon did not report any glitch.

You have made three references to Thailand at posts directed towards me.... coincidence....what are the chances of that

Surely that's the point, nobody really cares who someone else is, unless they want to be buddy buddy in real life, so what's the point of putting real names up.
How would you know it was a real name anyway? Request too much information and people just aren't going to bother to register.
