good idea - I suggested something similar to them myself - that when you click on a name to send a message, or when you receive a message, that the persons real name is displayed.

I think you need to be very careful about having your details on view for everyone to see. I am Maz on here, why does anyone need to know my real name, with it they can then find my address and lots more details about me. I have children, and my aim is to protect them, opening myself on here or anywhere spells danger in some cases! Maz x

I've got no probs with that. I used my full name to start with then changed to Jeanette in East Yorkshire and have been this ever since. Oh, apart from when I was Green Jelly for a few hours the other day! lol

Just an Idea, but to put a stop to some of the nonsense on these boards I would like us to discuss this idea. Why not a facility to allow us to enter a member's number and be shown the real name of the member? There may be some who think that on this site we should be anonymous, but please remember that every one of us, at the beginning had our real names on display until we decided to play, and if GR had their own way that is probably how it would stay.
